Cost Factors That Impact Your Investment
1. Roof Size and Complexity
Square Footage Calculations:
Roofing is measured in "squares" (100 square feet). Your actual roof area is typically 20-40% larger than your home's footprint due to pitch and overhangs.
Home Size to Roof Size:
- 1,500 sq ft home = approximately 1,800-2,100 sq ft roof
- 2,000 sq ft home = approximately 2,400-2,800 sq ft roof
- 2,500 sq ft home = approximately 3,000-3,500 sq ft roof
- 3,000 sq ft home = approximately 3,600-4,200 sq ft roof
2. Roof Pitch (Slope)
Pricing Impact:
- Low Slope (3/12 - 4/12): Standard pricing
- Medium Slope (5/12 - 7/12): Add 10-15% for safety equipment
- Steep Slope (8/12 - 12/12): Add 20-30% for specialized equipment
- Very Steep (>12/12): Add 40-60% due to difficulty and danger
Why It Matters: Steeper roofs require additional safety equipment, more labor time, and specialized installation techniques.
3. Roof Complexity
Simple Roof (Basic gable or hip):
- Minimal valleys and transitions
- Few penetrations (1-2 chimneys, vents)
- Standard pricing
Moderate Complexity:
- Multiple roof planes and valleys
- 3-5 chimneys, skylights, or vents
- Add 15-25% to base cost
High Complexity:
- Many roof planes and architectural features
- Multiple dormers, skylights, turrets

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does roof replacement take?
A: Most residential roofs are completed in 1-3 days for asphalt shingles, 3-7 days for metal, and 5-10 days for tile. Weather and complexity can affect timeline.
Q: Will my homeowner's insurance cover roof replacement?
A: If damage is from covered perils (storm, hail, wind, fire), yes. Normal wear and tear or aging is not covered. We provide free damage assessments.
Q: Should I get a roof replacement or repair?
A: If your roof is 20+ years old, has widespread damage (>30% of surface), or would require frequent repairs, replacement is typically more cost-effective.
Q: Can I install a new roof over my existing shingles?
A: While code-allowed in some cases (single layer), we recommend removal for best results. It allows deck inspection, proper ventilation, and longer new roof lifespan.
Q: Do you offer financing?
A: Yes! We partner with leading lenders offering 0% interest for 12 months, low APR long-term financing, and options for all credit levels.
Q: How do I choose the right roofing material?
A: Consider your budget, home style, HOA requirements, expected time in home, and climate factors. We provide detailed comparisons during consultation.
Q: What warranties come with a new roof?
A: Material warranties range from 25 years to lifetime depending on product. We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on all installations.
Q: Will you handle permits and HOA approval?
A: Yes! We manage all permit applications and can assist with HOA approval processes, providing necessary documentation and samples.
