What moves the price
- Roof or structure — a felt patch is quick, a rotten floor or wall frame is a bigger shed repair
- Roof covering — standard felt is cheapest, while EPDM rubber lasts longer and costs more
- Rot in the timber — rotted boards and bearers are cut out and replaced, which adds time and materials
- Shed size — an 8x6 shed and a large workshop are very different amounts of material
- Access — sheds at the end of narrow paths take longer to reach with timber and rolls
- Waste — old felt and timber have to be taken away, and disposal is charged
Home repair prices in the UK are up 6% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Services for maintenance and repair, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical shed repair would have cost about £210 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7DO →

How to pay less
- Patch shed roof felt as soon as it tears, before rain rots the boards underneath
- Treat the shed timber every couple of years to keep rot from starting
- Do roof and floor shed repairs together so materials and waste go in one trip
Before you book
- Empty the shed so the floor and walls can be reached and checked
- Older sheds and garages can have asbestos cement roofs, which only someone trained should handle or break up
- Clear the garden path so timber and roofing rolls can be carried to the shed
- Ask whether taking away the old felt and timber is in the price
Shed Repair cost: questions people ask
£65–£450 per job, with about £250 typical. A felt patch costs least; re-roofing in rubber or replacing a rotten floor costs most.
A felt repair takes a few hours. Re-felting a whole roof or relaying a floor is usually a day.
Some older sheds and garages have asbestos cement sheets. Leave them intact and ask a licensed or trained contractor to check before any work, as HSE guidance sets out how it must be handled.
If the frame and base are sound, yes. When the bearers and frame have rotted, a new shed is often better value.
A new shed, a new base and running power to the shed are separate jobs.
