What affects the price
When you start looking at a new roof, the final number depends on a few specific things. The total surface area is the biggest factor, but the steepness of your roof and how many stories your house has will change the labor intensity. We also look at the current material—stripping off old layers adds to the disposal fees. Choosing between asphalt shingles, metal, or tile shifts the budget significantly. Finally, if we find damaged decking underneath once the old roof is off, that needs replacement to ensure a solid structure. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
