Estimate roof replacement costs by roof size, material, tear-off, story height, and (optional) zip code.
Estimates are for planning. Roof pitch, decking repairs, ventilation, and disposal can change pricing.

Roof replacement pricing is typically calculated by roofing square (100 square feet), but the final number depends on several variables. Material choice, roof pitch, number of stories, tear-off requirements, and regional labor rates all play a role. This estimator provides a realistic planning range, but contractors evaluate structural condition before giving final pricing.
Asphalt shingles are the most common and affordable option for residential roofs. Metal roofing increases durability and lifespan but comes at a higher material and installation cost. Tile roofing is significantly heavier and requires specialized installation, increasing total price.
Removing an existing roof layer adds labor and disposal costs. While overlay installations can be cheaper in the short term, many homeowners choose full tear-off replacements to avoid future structural or moisture issues.
Multi-story homes require additional safety measures and setup time, increasing labor cost. Roof pitch and accessibility also affect installation time and complexity.
Roofing labor rates vary by region due to demand, material delivery costs, and local building codes. The ZIP code adjustment in this estimator provides a light regional modifier to better reflect pricing differences.
