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.

About this service

There are several options for shingles, ranging from standard three-tab asphalt to heavy-duty architectural or designer styles. Architectural shingles provide a thicker, multi-dimensional look that adds character to your roof, while premium options can mimic slate or cedar. The right choice depends on your budget, the slope of your roof, and how long you want the materials to last. We help you weigh the durability of different materials against your overall renovation goals during our consultation.

Fall provides ideal working conditions with cool, dry air that is perfect for roofing. Many homeowners choose this window to ensure their home is fully sealed before the harsh winter weather arrives. We stay busy during these months, so scheduling your inspection now helps you avoid the last-minute rush and ensures your property is protected for the coming cold.
