Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
To accurately estimate square footage, measure the length and width of each roof section. Multiply length by width for each section, then sum these areas. Account for the roof's pitch by multiplying the flat area by a pitch factor (e.g., 1.05 for a 4/12 pitch, 1.12 for a 7/12 pitch). Don't forget overhangs.
Basic asphalt shingles are more economical, often included in the lower end of the cost spectrum. Architectural shingles are thicker, more durable, and offer a more aesthetic appeal, typically falling into the mid-range to premium pricing tiers due to higher material costs and sometimes more involved installation.
Yes, it's highly recommended to include a contingency, typically 10-15%, especially for older roofs. This helps cover unforeseen issues like damaged decking, extensive rot, or additional repairs discovered during the tear-off process, preventing unexpected costs for both you and the homeowner.
Steeper roof pitches significantly increase labor costs. They require more safety equipment, slower working speeds, and potentially specialized techniques, directly translating to more man-hours and higher labor rates per square foot compared to low-pitch or flat roofs.
Common hidden costs include repairing or replacing damaged decking (plywood or OSB) due to water leaks or rot, addressing inadequate ventilation issues, replacing damaged fascia or soffit, and ensuring proper flashing around chimneys, skylights, and valleys. These often become apparent only after the old roofing is removed.
