Understanding Roof Replacement Costs

Roof replacement costs can vary dramatically, and understanding where your money goes helps you make informed decisions and avoid overpaying. Let's break down the real costs and help you get the best value.

National Average Costs

The average roof replacement costs between $8,000 and $25,000 depending on size, materials, complexity, and location. However, traditional roofing companies often charge significantly more due to hidden margins and inflated labor costs.

What Goes Into the Cost?

  • Materials: Shingles, underlayment, flashing, ventilation components
  • Labor: Professional installation crew, project management
  • Tear-off: Removal and disposal of old roofing materials
  • Decking repairs: Replacing damaged plywood or structural elements
  • Permits: Required building permits and inspections
  • Warranty: Material and workmanship guarantee coverage

Why Traditional Companies Charge More

Traditional roofing contractors typically mark up materials 30-50% and charge premium labor rates that include significant overhead and profit margins. Sales commissions, advertising costs, and corporate overhead all get passed to you.

We've saved homeowners millions of dollars by eliminating hidden markups and offering transparent flat-fee pricing. You pay for materials at cost plus a pre-agreed service fee—nothing hidden, nothing inflated.
