Roof replacement cost for a 1,500 sq ft house?
Straight answers from a shingle roofing team in Lebanon, OH.
You own a home in Lebanon, maybe near the Golden Lamb area or off I-71. Your roof is showing its age, and you need a real price for a full tear-off on a 1,500 sq ft house. You don't want sales calls. You want a number you can plan around.
Asphalt shingles wear out in Ohio. Freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and storms break down the granules. You might see curling edges, missing tabs, or granules in your gutters. When leaks start, the decking underneath can rot fast.
For a 1,500 sq ft roof in Warren County, a full tear-off and architectural shingle replacement runs roughly $8,000 to $15,000. The final cost depends on roof pitch, how many layers we remove, and decking repairs. Steep roofs or extra chimney flashing add labor time. You get a line-item quote so nothing is hidden.
Before you call anyone, check your insurance paperwork. Storm damage from high winds or hail may cover part of the cost. Then reach out to TruRoof for a written, no-pressure estimate. Avoid contractors who ask for full payment upfront. That is a red flag.
After the job, your roof is tight, vented correctly, and backed by a manufacturer warranty. No more buckets in the attic. Your home stays dry through the next Ohio winter.
What people in Lebanon 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 Lebanon 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.
