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

Metal roofing comes in a wide variety of finishes, ranging from classic earth tones to bold, modern shades. Choosing a color isn’t just about aesthetics; lighter colors can reflect sunlight, potentially helping keep your home cooler in the summer. We help you weigh the visual impact against the performance of different paint coatings. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
