Roofing Systems in Ghana

Which Roof Type is Right for You?

We work with all common roofing systems used in Ghana. Here's what you need to know about each.

Aluminium Roofing Sheets

The most common roofing in Ghana. Lightweight, affordable, easy to replace. Prone to noise in heavy rain. Best for standard residential and commercial buildings.

🏆

Long-Span Aluminium

Wider coverage, fewer joints, better weather resistance. More expensive than standard sheets but better value long-term. Popular for quality residential projects.

🏛️

Clay & Concrete Tiles

Premium aesthetic, excellent durability and thermal performance. Heavier — requires a stronger roof structure. Ideal for high-end residential projects.

Client Reviews

What Accra Clients Say About Our Roofing Work

Real feedback from residential and commercial clients across Greater Accra.

"Our roof was leaking in three places before the rains started. Cornerstone came out within a day, gave us a written quote on the spot, and had it fixed within 48 hours. No repeat leaks since."

Kwame A.
Homeowner, East Legon

"I compared three quotes for re-roofing my rental property in Spintex. Cornerstone was the only one that specified the sheet gauge in writing before I paid anything. That's the detail that convinced me."

Abena O.
Property Owner, Spintex

"As a contractor myself, I don't recommend lightly. Cornerstone's roofing crew showed up on time, used proper gauge sheets, and the 6-month warranty is real — I tested it with a small ridge leak and they fixed it free."

Daniel T.
Site Manager, Tema

FAQs

Roofing FAQs

How much does roof repair cost in Ghana?

Simple leak repairs typically start from GHS 500–2,000 depending on access and the extent of damage. Full re-roofing for a 3-bedroom house ranges from GHS 15,000–45,000+ depending on roof size and the covering material chosen. We provide fixed-price quotes after inspection — no surprises.

How quickly can you fix a leaking roof in Accra?

For urgent leak repairs, we aim to visit within 24–48 hours of first contact. WhatsApp Kwaku directly with a photo of the leak for the fastest response. Repairs are typically completed within 1–3 days once assessed and quoted.

Should I repair or replace my roof?

If your roof is less than 10 years old and the damage is localised, repair is usually the better investment. If the roof is older, has multiple leak points or structural damage, replacement is more cost-effective long-term. We'll give you an honest assessment at the free inspection — we don't push unnecessary replacements.

Do you offer a warranty on roof repairs?

Yes — every roofing job we complete comes with a written 6-month workmanship warranty. If the repair fails within 6 months due to our workmanship, we fix it free. That's a guarantee you'll struggle to find elsewhere in Accra.

Do you supply the roofing sheets, or do I buy my own?

Either way works. Most clients prefer supply-and-fix — we source GSA-compliant sheets at the correct gauge and you get one fixed price. If you already have sheets purchased, we'll fix them for a labour-only quote after inspecting the material to confirm it's fit for installation.

Can you roof during the rainy season?

Yes, though we schedule around forecast heavy rain days for safety and workmanship quality. Urgent leak repairs happen regardless of season — that's often when we're needed most. Full re-roofing is ideally scheduled for a drier stretch where possible, but we don't refuse rainy-season work.

Do I need a permit to re-roof my house in Accra?

Like-for-like re-roofing (same footprint, same structure) generally does not require a new building permit in Accra. If you're changing the roof structure, pitch, or footprint, a permit amendment may be required — we'll flag this during inspection if it applies to your project.

What causes most roof leaks in Ghana?

In our experience: poor ridge and hip sealing, under-gauge sheets that corrode and split, insufficient fixings allowing wind uplift at joints, and blocked gutters causing water to back up under the roof edge. Most "mystery leaks" trace back to one of these four causes.

Do you work on commercial and industrial roofs, not just houses?

Yes — we handle commercial and light industrial roofing including warehouses, retail units, and office buildings, in addition to residential work. Larger roof areas are quoted at a per-m² rate after a site assessment.

How do I get a fixed price instead of a rough guess?

Book a free inspection. We measure the roof, document existing damage with photos, and issue a written fixed-price quote — not a verbal estimate. The price in that quote is what you pay; it doesn't change once work starts unless you request additional scope.

Choosing the right roof for Ghana's climate

Aluminium roofing sheet

The most common roofing material in Ghana for standard residential builds. Cost-effective, widely available, and when correctly installed (minimum 0.55mm gauge, properly lapped and sealed at ridges) durable for 20+ years. The main failure modes are inadequate gauge (0.35mm or below corrodes within 5 years), poor ridge and hip detailing allowing water ingress, and insufficient fixings allowing wind uplift. Specify 0.55mm minimum.

Stone-coated steel tile

The premium mid-market choice — significantly better acoustic performance than plain aluminium (rain noise on aluminium sheet is a common complaint), better thermal resistance, and longer lifespan (30+ years). Higher upfront cost is partially offset by reduced maintenance and the premium it adds to finished property value, particularly in higher-end corridors.

When to repair vs replace

Repair if: leaks are limited to one or two points, typically at ridges, hips, or pipe penetrations; the main roof structure and sheets are sound. Replace if: rust damage covers more than 15% of the roof area; multiple simultaneous leaks; the timber structure shows rot or termite damage; you are renovating a property to resell or rent at a premium.

Frequently asked questions

What gauge of roofing sheet should I specify in Ghana?

Specify a minimum of 0.55mm aluminium gauge for all residential roofing. Do not accept 0.35mm or 0.45mm — these corrode significantly faster in Ghana's coastal-influenced air and provide inadequate wind resistance. Always ask for the gauge specification in writing before accepting a roofing quote.

How long does a new roof installation take?

A full roof replacement on a standard 3-bedroom house takes 2–3 weeks: approximately 3–5 days for the timber structure, 3–4 days for sheet installation, and 2–3 days for ridge, hip, gutter, and finishing details. Weather (particularly harmattan dust reducing adhesion) can extend this.

What warranty should a roofing installation come with?

A professional roofing installation should carry at minimum a 1-year workmanship warranty against leaks attributable to installation defects. Material warranties vary by manufacturer — stone-coated steel tile manufacturers typically offer 15–30 year product warranties. Cornerstone's workmanship warranty covers all installation defects for 6 months from handover.

Useful guides before you start

Make sure you have the right information before committing to any construction project in Ghana. These are our most-read guides:

How Cornerstone prices and manages every project

Free site visit within 48 hours

We visit your plot at no charge and no obligation. During the site visit we assess soil conditions (critical for foundation type and cost), confirm plot dimensions, evaluate access for materials delivery, and identify any site-specific constraints that will affect the build. This visit is what makes our quote accurate rather than estimated — and it costs you nothing.

Itemised PDF quote within 5 working days

Your quote lists every material item (quantity and unit cost), every labour operation, supervision, professional fees, permit fees, and contingency — separately. You can compare every line against current market prices. We do not use lump-sum estimates. Transparency is how we earn trust and verify value simultaneously.

Fixed-price contract before any deposit

Once you are ready to proceed, we sign a fixed-price construction contract before any money changes hands. The contract specifies: the complete scope of work; the fixed contract sum; the payment schedule (tied to milestones, not dates); the completion timeline; and a 6-month workmanship warranty. The price in the contract is the price you pay — it cannot be changed without a signed change order agreed by both parties.

Dedicated crew, daily updates

Your crew is assigned exclusively to your project — not shared across four or five other sites. Each day, your dedicated project manager sends WhatsApp site photographs from the build. This is particularly important for diaspora clients who cannot visit the site regularly — you see exactly what is being built, at what stage, in real time. If any issue arises on site, you hear from us before it becomes a problem.

Milestone-based payment schedule

Payments are released against verified construction milestones, not against calendar dates. Our standard residential schedule: 30% on contract signing and site mobilisation; 40% on completion of structural works (foundation, walling, slab, and roofing); 30% on practical completion and handover. You do not pay for the next phase until the previous phase is confirmed complete — protecting your money throughout the project.

6-month workmanship warranty

Every Cornerstone project carries a 6-month written workmanship warranty from handover date. Any defect in our workmanship — cracked plaster, roof leak at a junction we installed, failing tile adhesion, faulty fitting — is corrected at our cost within the warranty period. We provide this warranty in writing because we are confident in our work. We can also provide references from clients who have tested the warranty and confirm it was honoured without dispute.
