You will also need to choose your materials—architectural shingles, metal, or tile each carry different price points. We also have to account for the removal and disposal of your current roof, plus the condition of the underlying wood decking that might need repairs once the old shingles are off. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

There are several ways to cover a roof, and the right shingle depends on your budget, local weather, and home style. Options range from standard asphalt to composite or designer shingles that mimic slate or wood. Each type handles wind, rain, and heat differently. When choosing, consider how long you plan to stay in your home and the level of maintenance you are comfortable with. We help you compare the durability and appearance of each to make an informed decision.

Summer offers long, daylight-filled hours, which helps crews complete jobs efficiently. The heat actually helps asphalt shingles become more pliable and seal better once they are laid down. Licensed, insured pros serve your area — call now for a free estimate.
