Roof replacement cost for a 1,500 sq ft house
Straight numbers from a shingle roofing crew that works in Hamilton, OH.
You live in Hamilton, maybe in a 1950s Rossville cape cod or a Riverview colonial. The roof is shot. You just need a real price range before you call anyone. You do not want three sales pitches.
Most 1,500 sq ft roofs in Hamilton use asphalt shingles. Over time, our freeze-thaw cycles and summer storms break down the granules. You see curling edges, missing tabs, or grit in the gutter. That means the roof is past a repair. A tear-off is the only fix that lasts.
For a basic architectural shingle on a simple roof, plan on $8,000 to $12,000. If your roof is steep, has two layers to tear off, or needs new decking, it pushes toward $15,000. Designer shingles add more. This is turnkey: tear-off, dumpster, install, and cleanup. No hidden permit fees.
Get one written quote with line items. Ask for the shingle brand and model number. That lets you compare apples to apples. TruRoof can walk your roof with you, point out what needs attention, and hand you a firm number. No games.
Once the new roof is on, your attic stays dry. Gutters run clean. You stop worrying every time the wind picks up. The house looks sharp from the street, and you have a warranty that actually means something.

Other things people in Hamilton 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 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.
