Figures from a recent study by the national association of homebuilders nahb help answer this question.
1800 sq ft house roofing cost.
Share of total home cost.
That said on average most contractors will charge between 3 50 and 5 50 per square foot or 350 to 550 per square 100 sq ft to install or replace an asphalt shingle roof on a typical house.
For consistency these costs are per the home s square footage.
To install depending on the type of shingle and project specifics variables.
This estimated figure represents the cost of building the home and is broken down as follows.
Basic costs to build a house.
Roofing and siding are usually priced by the square feet they cover.
It needs to be stated that not all roofs are made the same and not all roofers charge the same prices.
The national average cost to replace a roof is 7 211 with most homeowners spending between 4 707 and 10 460 roof installation cost ranges from 400 to 550 per square depending on the roof size and materials used in reroofing.
Or 15 squares in roofing terms.
Many homes have an asphalt shingle roof but some have wood metal tile and slate which can be more expensive.
The cost to replace siding adds 1 000 to 3 000 for removing the old siding.
Assuming this is a hip roof we multiply this by 1 1 which gives us roughly 18 squares or 1 800 square feet of the roof surface.
Of total coverage equals 1 square.
The cost to reside a 2 000 square foot home with vinyl is 7 100 on average.
Straight off the bat.
A new asphalt shingles roof for a typical 2 000 sq.
The cost can be more for larger homes homes with complex roof designs or when installing more expensive materials.
So if you determine that you have 800 square feet to cover you need 8 squares.
This gives us a 3d roof area of 1 625 sq ft.
The average size roof is about 1500 square ft.
1 square of roofing is 100 square feet.
Thus at the mid point of the above price range you can expect to pay.
Expect to spend 1 500 to 3 000 to remove your current roof before installing a replacement.
Single story ranch house can range in price from 8 500 to 16 500 fully installed.
Roofing material is estimated by the square which is equal to 100 square feet.
House siding costs 4 300 to 15 800 on average or between 3 to 11 per square foot depending on the home s size and materials used.
Keep in mind that multistory homes have less roofing than ranch single story homes with the same square.
Across the us a typical architectural asphalt shingle roof will cost between 4 00 and 7 00 per sq.
For estimating purposes we also assume that there is a chimney a couple of dormers and two layers of old shingles that need to be torn off and removed before a new roof.
6 8 850 00 to replace.
You can now determine the new roof cost for the materials by multiplying the number of squares by the cost per square.
