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

Roof shingles are individual overlapping elements used to cover your home's exterior. They come in many varieties, including asphalt, wood, or composite. You need them when your current roof shows signs of curling, cracking, or missing pieces, which can lead to leaks. The cost depends on the complexity of your roof design and the specific brand of materials chosen; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
