What’s Included in Your Roof Replacement Estimate?

When you request an estimate from Heritage Roofing & Repair, we don’t just give you a number. You’ll receive a detailed breakdown that typically includes:

  • Tear-off and disposal of old roofing
  • Underlayment and ice/water barrier installation
  • New shingles or membrane installation
  • Flashing, drip edge, and ventilation upgrades
  • Labor, permits, and cleanup
  • Manufacturer and workmanship roofing warranty

Every quote is custom-built after a professional roof inspection and based on actual measurements, not guesswork.

Key Factors That Influence Roof Replacement Cost

1. Size and Slope of Your Roof

Larger or steeper roofs require more materials and labor. If you have a multi-level or multi-family property, costs will generally be higher.

2. Existing Roof Layers

If you have multiple existing layers, we may need to remove them before installation, which adds to labor and dumpster costs.

3. Material Choice

Choosing metal roofing or composite slate will increase your upfront cost, but also extend your roof’s lifespan significantly.

4. Structural Damage

If your decking is soft, rotting, or sagging, it may need to be replaced before the new roof is installed. This can add $1,000–$3,000+ to your estimate.

5. Storm or Hail Damage

If your roof has been damaged by high winds, hail, or falling trees, the cost may be covered by your homeowner’s insurance. Learn more about insurance roof claims and how we can assist.

Roof Replacement vs. Roof Repair: Which Do You Need?

Not all roofs need to be replaced. If your system is under 15 years old and the damage is isolated, a professional roof repair may be the smarter option. However, replacement is often the better choice when:

  • Your roof is over 20 years old
  • You’re dealing with recurring leaks
  • Shingles are curling, buckling, or bare
  • You’re preparing to sell your home and want top value
  • There’s widespread storm damage (see our Storm Damage Roof Repair services)

Still unsure? We offer honest, pressure-free guidance after every inspection.
