Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
To calculate the square footage, measure the length and width of each roof section and multiply them. Add these together. For sloped roofs, you'll need to factor in the pitch, which increases the actual surface area. Online calculators and specialized software can assist with this.
The basic tier typically includes the labor for installing standard asphalt shingles. It generally covers the placement of the shingles and associated underlayment but excludes the cost of the materials themselves, tear-off of old roofing, or any decking repairs.
It's best practice to include a separate line item or contingency in your estimate for potential unforeseen repairs (e.g., damaged decking). Clearly communicate this possibility with the homeowner upfront. If repairs are needed, provide a separate quote or an amendment to the original estimate for approval.
Labor costs can vary due to roof complexity (pitch, multiple angles), ease of access to the roof, the specific type of asphalt shingle being installed (some require more specialized techniques), and current demand for roofing services in the Poulan area. Experienced crews may also charge higher rates.
It is generally recommended to list tear-off costs as a separate line item. This provides clarity for the homeowner and allows for more accurate pricing, especially if the number of existing layers or the extent of damage is unknown until removal begins. This mirrors the approach for other potential additional fees.
