How much does a new roof cost?
Straight answers about residential roof replacement costs in Green Township, OH.
Your roof is old. You've gotten a couple quotes and the numbers are miles apart. One says $7,000, another says $14,000. You just want a fair price for a roof that will last on your Green Township home. You don't want to overpay, but you also don't want to cut corners.
If your roof has curled, cracked, or missing shingles, or if you see daylight in the attic, it's time. Most asphalt shingle roofs in our area last 20 to 25 years. In Green Township, many homes were built between the 1950s and 1970s, so roof age is a common concern. A full roof replacement means tearing off everything down to the wood deck, fixing any rotted wood, then installing new underlayment, ice and water shield, and shingles. This is not a patch job.
In Greater Cincinnati, asphalt shingle roof replacement for a typical home runs $8,000 to $15,000. The price depends on roof size, pitch, number of layers to remove, and shingle type. Metal roofs cost more, often $15,000 to $25,000. Extra layers of old shingles add labor and disposal fees. Steep roofs, skylights, and chimneys also increase cost. The only way to know your exact cost is to have a professional measure your roof.
Your next step is to get a written, itemized estimate from a local contractor who measures your roof, not one who quotes over the phone. Avoid anyone who pressures you to sign today without a detailed breakdown. Call TruRoof for a free, no-obligation roof inspection and a line-by-line written estimate. We'll measure your Green Township home, check the attic and decking, and give you an honest price.
Once your new roof is on, you won't think about leaks or missing shingles when the next storm rolls through. Your home stays dry, your energy bills may drop, and you have a solid roof over your head for decades. No more guessing. No more patch jobs.
What people in Green Township 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.
