What does a roof replacement cost for a 1,500 sq ft house?
Straight answers from TruRoof, your local shingle roofing contractor in Cold Spring, KY.
You own a 1,500 sq ft house in Cold Spring. The roof is old, and you need a replacement. You're not ready to call a bunch of contractors. You just want to know the real cost range before you start. No sales pitches, just a number.
You see cracked or missing shingles. Maybe your roof is over 20 years old. In Cold Spring, the freeze-thaw cycles and summer storms wear down asphalt shingles. Granules collect in the gutters. That means the shingle layer is failing. A full replacement is the smart fix, not a patch job.
For a 1,500 sq ft home in Cold Spring, a tear-off and new shingle roof costs $8,000 to $15,000. That includes removing old layers, new underlayment, flashing, and architectural shingles. Steep pitches, multiple old layers, or deck repairs add to the price. The job usually takes two to four days.
Get a written estimate with line items. That way you can compare costs fairly. Avoid contractors who give a price over the phone without measuring your roof.

What people in Cold Spring 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
Asphalt shingles cost less upfront and are easy to repair. Metal roofs last much longer, reflect heat, and stand up to high winds. Think about how long you plan to stay in the home. A metal roof pays off over time, but shingles are still the most common choice in Cincinnati neighborhoods.
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.
