What Affects Your Roof Price?

Several factors determine the final cost of any roofing project in the Houston area.

📆

Roof Size (Squares)

Roofing is priced per "square" (100 sq ft). A 2,000 sq ft home with a typical pitch has 20–25 squares once slope is factored in.

Roof Pitch & Complexity

Steep roofs (7/12 pitch or higher) require safety equipment and take longer. Multiple valleys, hips, and dormers add labor cost.

🏠

Material Choice

3-tab shingles are cheapest; architectural shingles last longer; metal and tile cost more upfront but have 40–50 year lifespans.

🏗

Decking Condition

Rotted or damaged plywood decking must be replaced before new shingles go down — adds $60–$100 per sheet.

🌟

Remove & Haul Old Roof

Tear-off and disposal typically adds $1–$2 per sq ft on a full replacement job. Some re-roof over existing shingles (not recommended).

💰

Insurance vs. Out-of-Pocket

If storm/hail caused the damage, your insurance likely covers replacement minus your deductible. We work directly with all major carriers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does homeowners insurance cover roof replacement in Texas?

Yes — Texas policies typically cover sudden damage from hail, wind, and storms. You pay your deductible; insurance covers the rest. We handle the claim paperwork at no extra charge.

How many squares is my roof?

A simple way: multiply your home's footprint (length × width in feet) by 1.2–1.3 for a standard-pitch roof, then divide by 100. A 2,000 sq ft home is typically 24–28 squares.

Can you patch a roof instead of replacing it?

Absolutely — if less than 30% of the roof is damaged and the underlying decking is sound, a targeted repair is far more cost-effective than a full replacement.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most Houston homes are done in 1–2 days for an asphalt shingle replacement. Metal and tile roofs take 3–5 days due to additional flashing and underlayment work.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. We partner with GreenSky and Hearth to offer 12-month same-as-cash and low-APR financing options for qualified homeowners. Ask your estimator for details.
