These are typical ranges, not quotes. The sections below explain what moves these prices. The dot marks the middle price, and a + means some businesses charge more.
What the job involves
An asphalt shingle roof is built from overlapping shingles, each a base mat coated in asphalt and topped with mineral granules, nailed over a water-resistant underlayment.
Roof replacement is the broader job and can end in any material. This is the shingle version of it, so these ranges fit a shingle quote and will not fit a metal or tile quote.
The whole-job range is for a typical house, while the installed range is per square foot of roof, so it needs the roof's measured size before it becomes a total. Ask whether that per-square-foot price includes tearing off the old shingles, since roof tear-off also has a figure of its own.
Architectural and 3-tab shingle cost
Architectural shingles, also called dimensional or laminated shingles, are thicker and built in layers, which gives the roof more depth. 3-tab shingles are thinner, flat strips cut into three tabs, and they cost less.
We don't have enough Georgia price lists that separate the two to give each its own range, so the ranges above cover asphalt shingle roofs as roofers post them. Ask each roofer whether the quote is for architectural or 3-tab shingles.
What moves the price
- Designer shingles
- Shingles made to look like wood shakes or slate usually cost more than the standard line from the same maker.
- Wind ratings
- Shingle lines are sold with different wind ratings. A higher-rated line usually costs more, and the maker may require extra fasteners or other installation steps before it honors the rating.
- Underlayment choice
- Roofers can use felt or a synthetic underlayment, and some add a self-sealing membrane in valleys and around penetrations. Each step up adds material and labor.
- Cuts and waste
- Cutting shingles around hips, valleys and edges leaves scraps, so a roof with a complicated shape needs more shingles than its size alone suggests.
- Matched parts and warranty
- Some shingle makers offer a stronger warranty only when the roof is built with their matching underlayment, starter strips and ridge caps. Those parts add to the price, so ask what the warranty requires and what it covers.
Getting a quote
Questions to ask each roofing company before you compare prices:
- Which shingle line is in this price, and what wind rating does it carry?
- Is this a total for my roof or a price per square foot, and does it include tearing off the old shingles?
- What underlayment is in this price, and is it felt or synthetic?
- Which parts does the maker's warranty require, and are they all in this quote?
