Seeing anything from $6,000 to $30,000 online, just wondering what it could be for a home in The Villages.
Happy with your contractor?
The SF of your home has nothing to do with the amount of roofing there is. Depending on the style of roof you could have a lot more roofing surface. Roofing is generally quoted by the number of squares of roof plus waste (10-15%). 100 sf = 1 sq of roofing.
Plus you have the cost of “tear-off” and debris removal. Not sure want the going rate is now for shingles. You probably have between 20-24 sq of roofing. Even at $400 a sq which I think is high you would be at $9600 plus tear-off and removal costs.
