How much does a new roof really cost?
Straight answers from TruRoof, residential roof replacement in Amelia, OH.
You need a new roof in Amelia. You call a few contractors. One says $8,000. Another says $20,000. You do not know who to trust or what a fair price even looks like. You just want to know what a new roof costs for a home like yours.
Your roof is getting old. Shingles curl, leak, or lose granules. You might see water stains on the ceiling. Or granules washing out of the downspout. Many homes in Amelia were built in the 1970s and 1980s. Their roofs are now at the end of their life. You start getting quotes and they are all over the map. That is normal. Every roof is different. A fair price depends on your home's size, roof pitch, and how many layers need to be torn off.
In Amelia, a new asphalt shingle roof for a typical ranch home often runs $8,000 to $12,000. A larger two-story home or a steep roof can push that to $15,000 or more. Metal roofs cost more upfront. The price includes tear-off, debris hauling, and new shingles, underlayment, and flashing. Ohio weather is tough on roofs. Freeze-thaw cycles and storms speed up wear. The only way to know is to have a roofer measure your home and give a written estimate.
Call TruRoof for a free, no-pressure roof inspection and a written estimate. We measure your roof, check the attic, and give you an itemized breakdown. No surprises. You never pay until you approve the work. Do not sign with a contractor who cannot show you a detailed price list. And please, do not climb on your roof to measure it yourself. That is dangerous.
You will have a solid roof over your head. No leaks when it rains. No more worry about the next storm. You will know exactly what you paid and why. Your home in Amelia is protected for decades. And you can finally stop thinking about roof quotes.
What people in Amelia say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."

shingle vs metal roof for home
Asphalt shingles cost less upfront and last 20 to 30 years. Metal lasts 40 to 70 years and handles high winds better. If you plan to stay in the home long-term, metal often wins. If you're selling soon, shingles make more sense.
