Frequently asked questions
How much does a roof replacement cost with Remi?
Key Takeaways
Roof size drives most of the cost.
Material upgrades raise the price.
Roof complexity affects labor time and flashing.
Decking repairs can change the scope once the old roof comes off.
Financing and insurance can lower what you pay out of pocket.
Roof size
Roofing is priced by the amount of surface area. Contractors often talk in "squares," and one square equals 100 sq ft. Bigger roofs use more materials and take more labor time, so the quote moves fast as square footage goes up.
Materials
Most homes use architectural asphalt shingles, which are a solid value for cost and durability. If you choose upgrades like impact resistant shingles or metal, the materials and install details usually cost more. Your Remi quote calls out exactly what's included.
Roof complexity
A simple, walkable roof is faster to replace than a steep or cut up roof. Things like multiple valleys, dormers, skylights, and chimneys add detail work. That typically means more labor and more flashing and waterproofing.
Decking condition
Decking is the plywood under the shingles. You often cannot see its condition until tear off. If there is rot or damage, sections may need to be replaced before new shingles go on. Remi will call this out clearly if it changes the scope.
Financing and insurance
If you use financing, you can spread the cost into monthly payments and sometimes start with low or no money down, depending on the plan and approval. If your roof was damaged by a covered event, insurance may pay for part of the replacement. Remi can provide documentation and photos to support the scope your adjuster needs.
