Our Roofing Projects

Some of the most common roofing materials used today are:

• Asphalt Shingles
• Metal Roofing
• Concrete or Clay Tile
• Wood Shingles/Shakes
• Slate
• Composite Shingles

The cost of a new roof is dependent on several different factors, including:

• Roof Size: Larger roofs naturally require more square footage of materials, increasing overall material costs. Additionally, the increased surface area translates to more labor hours needed for installation. This combination of material quantity and labor time directly correlates to a higher overall project cost.
• Roof Material: Selecting the right roofing material for your home is a crucial decision that factors in both cost and longevity. Asphalt shingles remain the most affordable option, offering a good balance between upfront price and lifespan. However, their vulnerability to severe weather might necessitate replacement sooner in harsh climate zones. For these areas, metal roofs become an attractive choice. While the initial investment is higher, metal's superior durability translates to a longer lifespan and potentially fewer repairs over time. The increased longevity can significantly offset the higher upfront cost, especially in regions prone to extreme weather events. Ultimately, the best roofing material depends on your budget and local climate – a qualified roofer can help you navigate these factors and choose the optimal solution for your home.
• Labor Costs: Labor rates vary depending on your location.
• Roof Removal: If you have an existing roof that needs to be removed before installing the new one, factor in the disposal costs for the old materials
