Roof Tile Installation Labour Cost per m2 2026: Concrete, Ceramic, Metal, Tear-off

Roof tile installation labour cost per m2 listed on public sites as of 23 October 2026 ranges Rp45,000-Rp65,000 for concrete or ceramic tiles in Greater Jakarta (builder.id, labour only) and Rp40,000-Rp60,000 elsewhere in Java; skala8.com quotes a ceramic roof tile installation cost of Rp55,000-Rp85,000 per m2 excluding the tiles. For the roof dismantling cost per m2, one Bandung vendor (Amana Baja) lists Rp35,000. These are not official rates or a survey: the figures come from blogs and vendors, the ranges differ between sources and cannot be equated because the scope of work and the region differ. For a 70 m² roof (the type 36 roof area per skala8), the homeX calculation from the builder.id ranges is Rp3,150,000-Rp4,550,000 (Greater Jakarta) and Rp2,800,000-Rp4,200,000 (Java outside Greater Jakarta), labour only.

These are blog and vendor ranges, not official rates, not a survey and not a quote; labour depends on the city, building height, roof pitch, access and the tradesperson. Data gaps: builder.id lists "metal tile installation" at Rp30,000-Rp45,000 (Greater Jakarta) in one table and Rp40,000-Rp60,000 in another on the same page; we show the second and flag the conflict; jasatukang.co.id has no figures and is not used; daily labour wages, official wage standards (UMK/PUPR) and tile material prices are not read in this article (see our roof tile price article); the 70 m² and 160 m² totals are homeX calculations from the ranges, not quotes, and exclude ridge, flashing, fascia or gutters.

Calculation for a 70 m² and 160 m² roof (homeX analysis)

homeX calculation, not a quote. A 70 m² roof (type 36 per skala8): labour for concrete/ceramic tiles in Greater Jakarta Rp3,150,000-Rp4,550,000 (builder.id) and Rp2,800,000-Rp4,200,000 outside Greater Jakarta; with the skala8 range Rp3,850,000-Rp5,950,000; tearing off the old roof (Bandung vendor, Rp35,000 per m2) Rp2,450,000. A 160 m² roof (type 72 per skala8): Rp7,200,000-Rp10,400,000 (builder.id Greater Jakarta), Rp8,800,000-Rp13,600,000 (skala8) and tear-off Rp5,600,000. Skala8 says installing a type 45 roof takes 2-3 days with two workers (site claim).

What is often not included in the per m2 labour rate

Per skala8, aluminium foil underlayment, stainless screws and ridge caps are often charged separately, and wall-junction flashing is a leak point to confirm is included; builder.id warns that a cheap "roof package Rp X per m2" often excludes foil, fascia or ridge and can add 20-30%. Ask for a written quote itemising each component and who supplies the materials.

Buyer tips

Ask for a written quote separating labour, materials, ridge, flashing and tear-off.
Measure the sloped roof area, not the floor area.
Check whether the truss and battens are ready before the crew arrives.
Compare at least three quotes in your city.
