What affects the price
Several things change the final bill when you replace a roof. The total area of your home is the biggest factor, followed by the specific materials you choose, like asphalt shingles versus metal or tile. We also look at the pitch or slope of your roof and how many layers of old material need to be pulled off before we start. If there is hidden wood rot or damaged decking underneath, that adds to the labor and supplies required.
About this service
A full replacement involves removing your existing roof system entirely and installing a brand-new one from the deck up. You need this when your roof is structurally failing, has extensive water damage, or has simply aged past the point where repairs are effective. It is a major investment that improves your home's energy efficiency and resale value, providing peace of mind that your house is fully protected against the weather for the long term.
