What goes into a tiled roof
Marley's data sheet for its Double Roman concrete tile shows how a tiler works out materials for each square metre of roof.
- Tiles per square metre
- A Double Roman tile is 420 x 332 mm. It takes about 10.42 tiles per square metre with a 100 mm overlap, or 9.66 with a 75 mm overlap.
- Weight
- Laid, the tiles weigh about 41 to 44 kg per square metre. SANS 10400-L limits tiles or slates with their battens to 65 kg per square metre on standard timber trusses.
- Battens
- Battens are set 320 mm apart on pitches from 17.5° to 26°, and 345 mm apart from 26° up. They are 38 x 38 mm where rafters are no more than 760 mm apart, and 38 x 50 mm for wider spacing.
- Fixing
- Tiles are fixed with 75 mm corrosion-resistant nails or clips that bite at least 25 mm into the battens.
- Underlay
- Marley makes its radiant barrier compulsory below 26°, and a radiant barrier or undertile membrane compulsory above it, in all cases.
- Finish guarantee
- Marley guarantees its standard M11-coated tile finish for 7 years and its M22 finish for 22 years.

We have recently used Corporate Partitioning Projects for a couple of projects in our complex, in Wilgeheuwel, and we couldn't be happier with the results! The workmanship was excellent, their pricing was extremely competitive and the team worked very neatly and professionally. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality workmanship and great service. A big thank you to the entire team. Keep up the excellent work!

Factors Impacting Roof Tiling Costs
- The Location of the roof
- The type of roof tiles
- The weight of the tiles per square meter
- Roofing contractor rates in your area
- The size and pitch of your roof, along with any access difficulties
Slate tile prices and installation costs are higher and need to be estimated on-site.
Roof Tile Prices for different-sized roofs
When estimating your roof's size, consider a 100 square metre house: the roof area could be 110 square metres with a shallow pitch, or it could double with a very steep pitch. The best way to determine the number of square metres of tiles needed is to look at your house's building plans. If unavailable, a professional roofer can make accurate calculations.
Cost of Changing the Type of Roof
Changing your roof type, like switching from corrugated metal to tile, involves additional costs for structural support and labour.
