There is a perception that metal roofs are more cost effective, but this is not the case. We did a cost analysis using the same roof and asking a number of our customers to price for a concrete tile roof and a metal sheeting roof. This included the timber and installation costs. The findings:
A concrete tile roof is a very cost effective solution when you take the entire roof construction include your roof timber, trusses and installation costs into account
± 20% saving on the roof of your project
You can upgrade to an upmarket concrete roof tile and still save vs metal sheeting
