If you believe your roof is aging and needs to be replacement, you are probably wondering how much a new roof will cost? While roof replacement will provide a great return on your investment the cost of a roof replacement can be expensive. Every roof is unique in different ways, so the cost of replacing a roof will vary depending on many factors. It is important to understand the factors that influence the cost of replacing your roof. Let's take a look at what factors influence the cost of a roof replacement.
SIZE OF THE ROOF
You will need to purchase more roofing materials if you have a larger roof. This will increase the cost of your roof. Roofers install roofs per square footage. One square foot of roofing is equal to one hundred square feet. You will spend more to replace a larger roof because it requires more squares. The square footage of your roof will not only impact the cost of the materials, but also the time and labor required to complete the job.
ROOFING MATERIALS
Asphalt shingles, slates, rubber slates, solar tiles and metal roofs are the most popular types of roofing materials. Concrete tiles, stone-coated iron, concrete tiles and concrete tiles are also common. There are many price options for these materials. Your choice of roofing material will affect the price of your new roof. Every roofing material has its own unique characteristics. Because of the special tools and knowledge required to do the job, metal roofs can be more costly to replace. Asphalt shingles are the most affordable of all roofing materials. However, they come in many styles. Premium shingles may have a higher cost of a roof replacement than other roofing materials.
PITCH
Flat roofs are more expensive to replace because they have more safety requirements, require more staging and more labor costs. Flat roofs can be walked on, making them easier to install and less costly to repair.
TIME REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT
When calculating the cost for your new roof, roofing contractors must consider how long it takes to complete a project like a roof replacement. Complex roof replacement projects, such as those with steep roofs, take longer and have a higher cost to replace.
GEOGRAPHICAL AREA
Because hourly labor rates, costs of materials, installation requirements and compliance requirements differ from one place to the next, the cost of a roof replacement price will be affected by your geographic location. The time it takes to complete the job, and the type of roof fasteners you choose for your roof, may be affected by the climate in your area.
PERMITS
To replace your roof, you will need a permit. You may need to pay additional fees to get permits.
