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

An asphalt shingle roof is the most common residential choice in the country due to its affordability and ease of installation. These shingles are designed to protect your home from the elements while providing a classic appearance. You typically need a replacement if your roof is nearing the end of its manufacturer warranty or shows widespread granular loss. Factors like roof slope and ventilation impact your total; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
