Cost by roof scope

Roof pricing moves on area, pitch, how many layers come off and what the deck looks like underneath. Every row is priced against the Peoria median.

ScopeWhat it includesTypical installed cost
Overlay on a simple ranch roofSingle layer, 4:12 pitch, no tear-off$1,000$1,300
Standard tear-off and replaceOne layer removed, architectural shingle, walkable pitch$1,400$1,800
Two-layer tear-offExtra removal and disposal, same footprint$1,600$2,200
Steep or cut-up roof8:12+ pitch, multiple valleys, dormers, staging$2,000$2,700
Replacement with deck repairPartial resheathing found after tear-off$1,800$2,600
  • Tear-off and disposal is priced per layer — quotes that omit a second layer are the most common source of change orders.
  • Decking is unknown until the old roof is off. Reputable quotes state a per-sheet resheathing price up front.
  • Pitch above 7:12 requires fall protection and slows the crew, which shows up as labor, not material.

Basis: Each scope is priced as a multiple of the modeled Peoria median for roof repair, so the scenarios, the size table and the calculator always agree. · Hometriva methodology

Labor in the price

$1,100

68% of the median — the rest is material, disposal and permit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Florida 25 percent roof rule?

When more than 25 percent of a roof section is repaired or replaced within any 12-month period, the Florida Building Code generally requires the entire roof section to be brought up to current code, which in practice means a full replacement.
