How much does a roof replacement cost?
Most roof replacement projects in the US fall between $9,000 – $35,000. Where yours lands depends on a handful of things — that's exactly what the calculator above asks about, then it adjusts for labor and material costs in your ZIP code.
What drives the price
- Roof size in squares (100 sq ft each) — bigger roofs cost more, but less per square.
- Material: metal runs about 2× shingles, tile even more.
- Steep or tall roofs need more safety gear and slower work.
- Removing two or more old layers adds tear-off and dumpster cost.
- Rotted decking is only found once the old roof is off.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a new roof cost on a 2,000 sq ft house?
A one-story 2,000 sq ft home has about 26 squares of roof. With architectural shingles that's roughly $13,000–$20,000 including tear-off.
Is a metal roof worth it?
Metal costs about twice as much as shingles but can last 40–70 years versus 20–30, and it handles snow, wind and hail better.
Will insurance cover my roof replacement?
If the damage is from a covered event like hail or wind, insurance often pays most of it minus your deductible. Wear and age usually aren't covered.
