Roof painting for your house or property

Describe the roof and what you would like done so we can assess the next step. A worn coating, flaking paint and damage to the roofing material itself may need different treatment. Painting does not replace repairs to leaks or a damaged roof.

This page concerns exterior roofs. If you need a ceiling painted indoors, you can find that work under interior painting. For other painting work, see our overview of painters in Helsingborg.

What needs to be included in a roof painting quote?

The quote needs to describe preparation, surface treatment and how the work will be carried out on the specific roof. A price per square metre is not enough to establish what you are getting.

How much does roof painting cost in Helsingborg?

NLL Måleri's guide price for exterior roof painting labour costs 500–750 SEK/m² including VAT, before ROT deduction. This refers to the roof area, not the house's living area. We do not apply a fixed price level by roof material without first assessing the work.

The example covers labour only and is not a quote. Materials, access and other agreed costs are added as stated in the quote. ROT requires an eligible buyer and work, as well as sufficient deduction allowance; materials are not covered. A housing association commissioning work as an association does not use private ROT.

Estimate the labour cost in the calculator and read the roof painting price guide before comparing quotes. Current deduction conditions are available from Skatteverket.

What applies to metal roofs and roof tiles?

The roofing material and existing coating determine whether painting is suitable and what preparation is needed. We therefore need to know the surface before we can give an answer about your particular roof.

What applies to metal roofs and roof tiles?
Roof or conditionInformation for assessment
Metal roofExisting coating, rust, flaking paint and the condition of the metal
Concrete roof tilesThe tiles' condition and the manufacturer's guidance on surface treatment
Clay tiles or an unknown roof typeMaterial-specific guidance before painting can be considered
Leaks or damaged partsSeparate investigation of the problem; painting is not a substitute for repair

The guides to painting a metal roof and painting roof tiles explain the questions you can ask. The table above is not a promise that every roof type can be treated.

Roof painting in Helsingborg – start with the address

Helsingborg is within NLL's service area in north-west Skåne. Include the property address in your enquiry so we can assess the conditions and planning for work there.

Feel free to attach photos taken from the ground or another safe place. If you know the roof material, previous treatment or approximate area, you can include that too. You do not need to climb onto the roof to send an enquiry.

How to move from an enquiry to agreed work

  1. Describe the roof. Send the address, roof type if known, photos and what you would like help with.
  2. Review the conditions. We discuss the information needed to assess the work.
  3. Consider the quote. Check the scope, cost items, access and any applicable ROT.
  4. Agree on how the work will be carried out. The schedule and terms are set for the particular project.

You should be able to see what is included before deciding. A calculator result is an initial labour cost estimate, not a completed quote or booking.

Frequently asked questions about roof painting in Helsingborg

How much does it cost to paint a 100 m² roof?

Using NLL's guide price, labour comes to 50,000–75,000 SEK including VAT before ROT. Materials and other costs are assessed separately. The example is not a total price or a quote.

Can I receive a ROT tax deduction for roof painting?

It may be possible for a private customer when the conditions for the home, buyer and work are met. The deduction covers up to 30% of eligible labour costs and requires sufficient deduction allowance. Materials are not included.

Do you paint all types of roof tiles?

We cannot give a general answer for all tiles. The material, existing treatment and condition need to be assessed before we decide whether painting is suitable.

Is roof washing or repair automatically included?

No. Preparation and any other measures need to be specified for the project. This page offers roof painting; it is not a separate order for roof washing or roof repair.
