Roof Replacement FAQs

A typical architectural shingle replacement runs $9,000–$15,000 for an average single-family home; metal runs $18,000–$35,000 and tile $20,000–$35,000. Roof size, pitch, tear-off layers, and deck condition all affect the final price. We provide detailed written estimates so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Architectural shingles last 25–30 years, metal 40–70 years, tile 40–50+ years, and quality flat membranes 20–30 years — provided the roof is installed as a complete system with proper ventilation. Poor ventilation can cut any roof's life dramatically.

Yes, in most conditions. Modern materials and installation techniques allow year-round replacement. We monitor weather closely and never leave a roof exposed overnight without emergency dry-in protection.

Not always. We inspect gutters during the estimate; if they are sound, we protect them and reinstall. If they are failing, bundling replacement with the reroof saves money versus doing it separately later.

We photograph it, show you, and replace it at the per-sheet price listed in your written estimate — no surprise charges. Hidden deck damage is common, which is exactly why we insist on full tear-off.

No. Most homeowners are not home during the work. We need driveway access for the dumpster and material delivery, and we will call with photo updates throughout the day.
