What does a roof replacement cost for a 1,500 sq ft house?
Straight numbers for shingle roofing in Green Township, OH, from the crew that works here.
You have a 1,500 square foot home near Veterans Park or off U.S. 50, and the roof is shot. You need a real price range before you pick up the phone. No runaround, no three-estimate slog. Just the numbers that make sense for a typical Green Township house.
Shingle roofs in Green Township take a beating. Ice dams form after January freezes, spring storms peel up corners, and July sun bakes the asphalt until it curls. You see bare spots, missing tabs, or granules washing into the gutter. That means the waterproof layer is failing.
For a 1,500 sq ft home, a full tear-off and architectural shingle replacement runs $8,000 to $15,000. The range shifts with roof pitch, how many old layers we strip, and whether decking needs patches. Dimensional shingles cost more than three-tab but last longer and hold up better against wind. Metal is an option but pushes the number higher.
Get one written estimate with line items. That lets you compare material grades, underlayment specs, and warranty terms instead of guessing. TruRoof sends someone to your house, measures, checks the attic, and hands you a firm quote. Call before the next storm cycle hits.
Once the new roof is on, the attic breathes right and the gutters run clean. You stop watching the ceiling for water stains every time it rains. The house stays dry, and the warranty stays active because the install follows manufacturer specs.
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
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.
