What drives the cost
- Scaffolding or lifts: often €300–€1,500 on taller buildings.
- Condominium roofs: shared roofs in apartment buildings are the condominium's responsibility, so talk to your administrator first.
- Asbestos (fibrocimento): older roofs may contain asbestos, which requires licensed removal and costs more.
- Season: book in late summer before the autumn rains; roofers are busiest from October.
Signs you need a roofer
