Roof repair estimate: how to make it yourself

An estimate for roof repair is needed when planning the repair of roofs of multi-apartment, industrial and other buildings, the maintenance of which is associated with accounting. A correctly drawn up estimate for a major overhaul allows you to calculate in advance the cost of the necessary materials and calculate the budget for the upcoming event. In addition, with proper planning, you can predetermine the time that will be required from the start of repairs to the commissioning of the roof, adjusted for various factors that affect the completion time.

What does the repair estimate depend on?

Budgeting is determined by the following criteria:

• Type of roofing. Different roofing materials cost differently, and therefore the price of repairing a soft roof will differ significantly from the cost of restoring slate or tile coatings. Again, depending on the type of coating, the price of installation work will differ;
• The degree of damage to the roofing. Strong wear of the roofing will result in its complete replacement, while minor wear will require local, and therefore less expensive repairs;
• Roof dimensions. The larger the roof, the more roofing material or slate, time and effort will be required for roofing work;
• Features of the delivery of materials. Being able to purchase repair supplies close to home will make shipping easier and save time and money. The presence of access roads to the house will make unloading more convenient;
• Season. Repairing the roof with your own hands in the warm season is easier than in the cold. The same opinion is shared by experts, and therefore the price of work in summer and winter will be different.

Illustrations	Types of repairs in accordance with the type of roofing
	Repair of soft roof. There are major and seasonal repairs. In the first case, the old material is dismantled with the restoration of the ceiling and the laying of a new roll roof. Together with the laying of the material on the floor, the adjoining of the roof and various superstructures, parapets, etc. is re-performed. Seasonal refurbishment involves the installation of weld-on patches over the damage to the old pavement.
	Slate roof repair. The performance of such work is required either after the expiration of the resource of the material, or as a result of local damage and the formation of leaks. A major overhaul involves the dismantling of the slate, the inspection of the truss system for damage and the laying of a new coating. Local elimination of leaks is carried out by replacing one damaged sheet or by repairing cracks.
	Seam roof restoration. The metal coating, subject to proper installation, is durable, and therefore restoration may be required only after the expiration of the resource, that is, not earlier than 15-25 years after installation. As a preventive measure, corrugated seam roofing can be painted to prevent corrosion.
	Metal roof repair. Structures covered with metal tiles are durable and reliable, and therefore repairs may be required only after the resource has expired, when the entire coating is replaced with new roofing material.

What does the estimate form take into account

In the form of the estimate, which is compiled when organizing repair work on residential, industrial, administrative and other buildings, the following items are spelled out:

• List of upcoming works. The volume and sequence of the forthcoming work is determined in accordance with the previously compiled defective statement;
• Quantity of materials and units of measurement. The name and quantity of materials determined in accordance with the defective list are indicated;
• Estimated price of materials. The average price of materials and related products is indicated. When specifying the exact numbers, you must refer to the trade organization;
• Estimated price of works. The form indicates the average price of work, or exact numbers with reference to the organization providing services;
• Correction factor. Simply put, it indicates how much the cost of repairs can increase and the reason for this increase;
• Estimated price in rubles indicating the time of the calculation. That is, the total amount of money that is relevant at the time of the calculations is indicated.

What is a defective statement and what does it take into account

A defective statement or a defective act is a document that indicates a list of all damage that will have to be eliminated in the course of the upcoming work. Determining the damage that will be included in the defective act is carried out by experts.

For greater accuracy of the expert assessment results, it is advisable to coordinate the data from the defective statement with experts from other specialized organizations.

Benefits of making estimates when repairing roofs on private property

So, we decided that when repairing construction sites by organizations, an official document with calculations is necessary for a number of reasons. How necessary are such calculations when doing do-it-yourself repairs?

Illustrations	Reasons for budgeting for self-repair
	An objective assessment of the complexity of the upcoming work. Getting started, you will have an accurate idea of ​​​​its complexity and will be able to decide whether to do everything yourself or use the services of professionals.
	No waste or lack of materials. Having correctly compiled an estimate, you can decide with high accuracy what materials and in what quantity to buy so that at the end of the repair there are no surpluses.
	Competent action planning. By planning actions, you can complete the work on time without stretching until the onset of bad weather.

Summing up

Now you know why you need an estimate for the overhaul and current repairs of the roof. If you have any questions about determining roofing defects and making calculations, write about it in the comments to the article.

Any roof, whether it is on a private or apartment building, periodically needs to be repaired. Any, even the smallest violation of the tightness of the roof can lead to the fact that the leakage will be observed on the top floor. In order to make repairs correctly without a shortage and overspending of materials, you need to draw up an estimate in which all restoration measures will be clearly calculated and the costs of them will be reflected.

Before drawing up the document, an assessment of the condition of the roof is made and an act is performed that reflects the results of the inspection. These data are transferred to the defective statement and, on the basis of it, an estimate is made. In this article, the topic of estimates is disclosed and their sample is presented.

Mandatory items in the budget

First of all, the estimate document always indicates the measures to remove the old coating, which are carried out in several steps. This includes the dismantling of the concrete screed, the disassembly of the insulation and vapor barrier, the dismantling of parapets, if necessary, the removal of gutters and water intake funnels, the dismantling of the fastening of the top roof covering.

The next item will be the restoration of the surface, the list of which may increase or decrease depending on the state in which the roof is:

• Installation of new parapets
• Applying a primer to the base
• Screed alignment
• Laying a steam and heat-insulating layer
• Installation of adjoining roofing material on the sides
• Installation of new gutters and water intake funnels
• Restoration or installation of new ventilation and chimney pipes
• Installation of roofing material

The estimated calculation for a capital replacement will differ from the calculation document for the current one, since the first one requires a large amount of work, often not just restoration, but the complete replacement of some sections.

Budgeting

First of all, it is necessary to accurately determine the restoration of which roof is needed: soft, metal, corrugated or some other. This is necessary in order to draw up a document in the order that depends on the materials and technologies used in roofing. For example, for the repair of a metal roof from corrugated board, the estimate will indicate the replacement of metal sheets and the accompanying actions. There will be no bituminous coating article here, since it simply does not exist on such a roof.

Important! In addition to restoration, the document also includes the costs of shipping the cargo and lifting it to the roof.

You also need to determine what type of restoration should be carried out: capital or current:

1. Estimated sheet for major repairs. If a major overhaul of the roof is needed, then design documentation must be developed in advance by the organization that has permission for this, that is, the SRO permit for such construction work. The created project will be the starting point in creating an estimate for the overhaul of the roof.
2. Estimated sheet for current repairs. The cost estimate is based on a defective statement, which is compiled by a technical specialist after assessing the condition of the roof. Such estimates are also compiled by a company that is involved in the restoration of the roof by the management company. In this case, it is not necessary for the company to have an SRO permit, since work on technically non-complex and non-hazardous facilities can be carried out without it.

The estimate sheet is an official document and must necessarily have the signature of the person who compiled it, as well as the person who checked it. After it is drawn up, it must be agreed between the customer and the contractor and certified.

An example of an estimate for the repair of a soft roof can be viewed below:

Factors affecting cost

The preparation of this document is not tricky, but some nuances can significantly change the cost of the work. These include:

• The area where the work is to be done. Accordingly, the larger the damaged area, the greater the amount of materials to be used and the work to be done.
• The cost of materials sent in the market, which may vary depending on the supplier.
• Type of work performed: major or current repairs.
• The level of waste of the material that is used to restore the roof.
• The need to use additional equipment, for example, for lifting or transporting.

Leave your roof repair worries on the shoulders of our specialists!

Roof coverings are not eternal (no matter how much you would like to) and, sooner or later, the owner of a building or structure has to deal with a situation where the roof begins to lose its protective properties. Under the influence of precipitation, temperature changes, exposure to sunlight, possible mechanical damage, the roofing material undergoes destruction - cracks, bubbles, delaminations, breaks, and so on appear. And then there are leaks and the question: how to make high-quality and inexpensive repairs of a soft roof in Moscow, for example?

Calculation includes a complete list of materials needed to carry out repairs and related work, wages of workers, possible overhead and contingencies, third-party services, if any, including delivery of materials, material handling, roofing debris removal activities and removal from the construction site. That is, the execution of the entire scope of work, which guarantees the precise fulfillment of the task set by the Customer: to repair the soft roof in Moscow.

Material price

Modern manufacturers offer a huge amount of a wide variety of roofing materials, differing not only in price, but, of course, in quality. But, the price of the material is the main component in the total cost of repair work. And the most expensive, by the way. After all, the labor costs of construction workers also depend on the structure and quality of the material used: it is customary to calculate the costs of builders based on the cost of building materials.

Wage

Quite often, wages are a contractual value, and more than once it happens that after the completion of work, prices begin to creep up. But in the event that Customer there is an approved Contractor Roof repair quote or, then they clearly indicate everything related to the remuneration of workers. As mentioned above, the labor costs of builders are calculated based on the cost of building material. Quite often, this amounts to 50 to 100 percent of the total cost of materials.

We calculate the amount of work for the repair of a soft roof in Moscow

The scope of work determines the total cost of roofing repairs. Naturally, the larger it is, the higher the total cost. The scope of work depends on:

• the total area of ​​the roofing to be repaired;
• lengths of cornice overhangs, junctions with walls and parapets, thickness and height of the latter;
• the presence of shafts on the roof, their number and size;
• the presence of pipes and other elements on the roof, their size and quantity.

How to order a service?

The topic of the article is an estimate for roof repairs. Any process carried out by the contractor, and this is the repair or maintenance of buildings and structures, must ultimately be paid. The basis of payment is the estimate, which is attached to the contract as an integral part of it. That is, this is a fundamental document, in which the points are described for which operations and how much the customer must pay. In the article we will talk about how to make an estimate, on what basis, and also give some examples of drawing up estimates for a roof covered with different roofing materials.

What is an estimate

As mentioned above, this is a document necessary for accounting and for planning ongoing activities. It clearly outlines the construction operations that will be carried out during the repair process, plus the required amount of materials. In addition, on the basis of the estimate, you can easily plan the time spent on roof repairs. Of course, you will have to take into account some factors and accept them as amendments.

What is this document based on?

There are several criteria that fall into the preparation of a repair estimate for a roof:

What roofing material is the roof covered with? It is clear that the variety of roofing dictates the budget allocated for its repair. For example, an estimate for repairing a soft roof will be cheaper than repairing a roof covered with ceramic tiles. The reason is the different price of products, some of which will have to be replaced in the process of repair operations.

Roof damage. For example, if a building has been in operation for a long time, then most likely its roof has undergone significant wear. This means that the roofing material will have to be replaced in whole or in part. If the house has been operated for no more than 10 years, then the repair will result in the replacement of several elements, which will be much cheaper in cost.

Roof structure dimensions. Everything is clear here: the larger the roof area, the more materials, time and effort will be spent.

Building location. If it is within the city, then transportation costs will be minimal. If the house is located far from the contractor's base, then, accordingly, the customer will have to pay for the transportation of building materials and people.

Season also an important factor influencing the preparation of estimates. In winter, all work is more difficult to carry out, which means that the price will be higher.

How to budget for repairs

It all starts with the visit of a specialist. He must inspect the roof structure and determine the amount of work to be done. Based on its inspection, a defective act is drawn up. This document indicates the condition of the roof, its wear, the number of defects and flaws, the dimensions of the roof structure. And also whether it is required to carry out only repairs or a complete reconstruction. Be sure to indicate the type of roofing material, the design of the truss system and the battens in the defective act. That is, the specialist must fully analyze the roof and determine its technical condition.

It is this document that forms the basis for the preparation of estimates. Let's take a look at several roofings as an example, and the first will be an estimate for roofing soft roofing.

Speaking in an article way, the first item in the estimate is the dismantling work:

removal of roofing;

removal of the screed from the cement-sand mortar;

dismantling of the heat-insulating cake;

if necessary, they include the dismantling of parapets;

partial dismantling of the drainage system, this mainly concerns the intake funnels and gutters located under the cornice overhang;

dismantling of junction areas.

On our website you can find contacts of construction companies that offer services roof design and repair. You can directly communicate with representatives by visiting the exhibition of houses "Low-Rise Country".

It is clear that not all positions will be present in the repair estimate. This is a complete list of works, some of which may be included, because they are not recorded in the defective act.

The second paragraph is the articles relating to restoration work:

construction of parapets;

repair of the base of the roof: sealing cracks, crevices and other things;

primer treatment;

restoration of the heat-insulating cake with the arrangement of protective layers: vapor and waterproofing;

pouring screed;

installation of roofing material, taking into account the junction areas.

Note that the overhaul of the roof is much different from the current one. For example, if a pitched roof is being repaired, on which, for example, bituminous tiles are laid, then the overhaul includes the repair of the truss system and continuous battens. And this is a large financial investment for the purchase of building materials and huge labor costs.

We add that the list of works related to the repair of the roof may vary depending on the roofing material used, as well as the use of the latest technologies. For example, if a soft roof is replaced with a metal coating. Here, the repair consists only in the fact that the roll roofing is dismantled and the metal coating is installed without the use of hot technologies and bituminous adhesive composition.

And one more criterion that must be taken into account when making an estimate of repair work. This is the use of a special technique. This is very important when carrying out repairs on the roof of multi-storey buildings. And the higher the house, the more you have to pay for the exploited equipment. In this regard, the repair of the roof structure of a one-story building is much cheaper. After all, almost all building materials are lifted by hand.

Generalization on the topic or what is indicated in the estimate form

So, summarizing all of the above, we can conclude that the estimate for repair work on the roofs of residential, industrial and administrative buildings includes the following positions:

List of repairs. That is, the points indicate the sequence of ongoing construction operations and the volume of each of them.

The amount of required building material by type and type.

The price of the required building materials. There is one point here. If exact prices are indicated, then it is necessary to attach documents from suppliers (invoices or waybills) to the estimate.

Prices for work performed.

Correction factors are required. This indicator indicates how much the price of building materials and services can rise. Be sure to prove the reasons for the increase in cost indicators.

At the end of the document, the total amount that the customer must pay for the repair work is indicated.

Pay attention to the photo below, which shows part of the estimate for a corrugated roof (example), which shows the correction factors and the total estimated cost of repairs.

And the last. An estimate is a document that carries a legislative burden. Therefore, it is signed by both parties: the customer and the contractor. The first agrees with what is displayed in the document, and, accordingly, with the price. The second - offers the type of work, their volume and the money that he asks for the provision of this service. If the contractor fails to perform any operations, but received payment for this, he may be brought to court on the basis of an estimate and an agreement.

We add that not all owners of private real estate require the submission of an estimate from the contractor. And this is a big mistake, which can lead to overspending of the budget allocated for the repair of the roof structure. It will be almost impossible to prove non-fulfillment or poor-quality execution of construction processes without this document.

But there are other positive aspects of the presented paper:

can objectively estimate the complexity of future repairs;

exactly purchase required building materials without overspending or shortage;

competently plan the whole process from start to finish.

Let's show an example of an estimate for the seam roof of a private house. What should be shown in it. First of all, the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe roofing that needs to be repaired is displayed. Plus the cost of sheet iron or seam roof paintings per 1 m². And be sure to add the number of fasteners.

If it is necessary to repair the truss system or battens, then indicate how much lumber must be replaced or repaired, as well as the cost of the repair service itself. If the roof is insulated, then the estimate includes work related to the repair of the heat-insulating pie.

Be sure to include planned savings and overheads in the estimate for repairing the roof of a private house, which partially cover the additional costs of the contractor. And at the end, the total amount for payment, which is called the estimated amount, is displayed.

Video description

In general, it is impossible to make an estimate without special knowledge. Therefore, for example, we want to invite you to watch a video in which a specialist shows how to make an estimate for the repair of a soft roof:

Conclusion on the topic

Estimate for repairs - a document that confirms the budget allocated for this event. He is the basis of payment, he is the basis of disputes. Therefore, before signing any papers, and even more so the estimate and the contract, the customer must understand them. That is, you cannot sign both documents without reading them. Particular attention to the final amount. If it suits you, then there is no problem.
