The six things that move your price
Roof size (squares)
The biggest driver. A 1,600 sq ft ranch roof costs roughly half what a 3,200 sq ft two-story does.
Pitch & walkability
Steep roofs (8/12+) need more safety rigging and time — typically adding 15–30%.
Layers to tear off
Each extra layer of old shingles adds labor and disposal. Older {{city}} homes sometimes carry three.
Penetrations & details
Chimneys, skylights, dormers, and valleys all add flashing work — the part bad roofers skip.
Deck condition
Rotted decking is replaced per sheet ($85–$120 each). Honest contractors photograph every board they bill.
Material choice
The table above — shingle to metal to tile roughly doubles, then triples, the budget.
