What the job involves
Flat roof replacement is priced per square metre of covering, with the system choice (EPDM, GRP, felt, TPO) driving most of the variance. A typical small extension is 15–25 m², which puts full replacement in the £1,200–£4,500 range before scaffold and skip.
A proper replacement includes checking and usually replacing the deck underneath, creating sufficient falls to avoid ponding, and dressing upstands properly into the abutting wall or parapet. Cheap quotes often skip these details.
Milton Keynes — local context
Traditional material: Concrete interlocking tile (the city is largely 1970s-onwards).
Most Milton Keynes roofs are concrete interlocking tile approaching 30–50 year lifespan; the city is almost entirely post-1970 so conservation area restrictions are rare outside historic villages like Stony Stratford.
What changes the price
- System choice — felt cheapest, EPDM mid, GRP or single-ply most expensive.
- Area in m² plus complexity (penetrations, upstands, rooflights).
- Whether the deck underneath is sound or needs replacing.
- Scaffold access and waste removal.
Timeline: Usually 2–5 days on site depending on size.
