Project type

Roof area (sq ft)

Roof area is not floor area. A 2,000 sq ft two-story home often has about 1,200 to 1,400 sq ft of roof; a 1,700 sq ft ranch is closer to 1,900 sq ft of roof once pitch and overhangs count. When in doubt, start at 1,700 and adjust.

Typical range:

What moves the price

-Roof size, pitch, and complexity (hips, valleys, and dormers all add labor)
-How many old layers have to be torn off and hauled away
-Decking repairs found once the old roof is off
-Material choice, the single biggest lever in the total
