What’s a roof replacement cost for a 1,500 sq ft house?
Straight numbers for shingle roofing in Florence, KY — from TruRoof.
You're in Florence, maybe off KY 237 or near England-Idlewild Park. Your roof is curling or leaking, and you need a real number before you call anyone. No runaround, just what a shingle roof really costs for a 1,500 sq ft home.
You see missing shingles, curling edges, or damp spots in the attic. In Florence, hot summers and freeze-thaw winters crack asphalt shingles fast. Most1,500 sq ft roofs show serious wear after 15-20 years. If yours is that age, replacement is normal.
For a full tear-off and new architectual shingles on a1,500 sq ft house, expect $7,500 to $14,000. A simple single-story ranch off Plantation Pointe might be on the low end. A two-story with a steep pitch or extra layer bumps it up. That includes labor, disposal, and new shingles installed to manufacturer spec so the warranty holds.
This week, get a written estimate from TruRoof. We'll give you line items — shingles, tear-off, underlayment, flashings — not a round number you can't compare. Ask about the warranty and how long the job takes. You'll know the price before you decide.
Once it's done, the buckets stay dry. No more patches or leaks. You know the work is backed by a real warranty, and your home is protected for the next two decades.
What people in Florence 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."
Other things people in Florence ask
asphalt shingles vs architectural shingles
Architectural shingles cost more up front and last longer with better wind ratings. We show both on your house.
how many years does a shingle roof last
Most architectural shingles run 20 to 30 years in Ohio weather. Ventilation and installation quality decide which end you land on.
how much does it cost to put a shingle roof on a 2000 sq ft house
A written estimate priced by roof squares, not house square footage, is the only number that means anything.
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.
