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 Irving median.
| Scope | What it includes | Typical installed cost |
|---|---|---|
| Overlay on a simple ranch roof | Single layer, 4:12 pitch, no tear-off | $900 – $1,100 |
| Standard tear-off and replace | One layer removed, architectural shingle, walkable pitch | $1,200 – $1,600 |
| Two-layer tear-off | Extra removal and disposal, same footprint | $1,400 – $1,900 |
| Steep or cut-up roof | 8:12+ pitch, multiple valleys, dormers, staging | $1,800 – $2,400 |
| Replacement with deck repair | Partial resheathing found after tear-off | $1,600 – $2,200 |
- • 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 Irving median for roof repair, so the scenarios, the size table and the calculator always agree. · Hometriva methodology

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.
