What does a 1,500 sq ft roof replacement cost?
Straight numbers for asphalt shingle roofing in Union, KY, before you call anyone.
You are in Union and you need a new shingle roof. You do not want three sales visits just to get a ballpark. A 1,500 square foot house near US-42 or I-71 should not be a pricing mystery. Here is how to get a real number before you call any roofer.
If your shingle roof is 15 to 25 years old, you may see curling edges, missing granules in the gutter, or daylight in the attic. A 1,500 square foot house around Union often has a simple roof shape, but age, ice, wind, and Kentucky storms wear shingles down. Once the mat underneath shows, nails back out, or water stains appear on ceilings, the roof has failed. That is when small repairs stop making sense.
For a 1,500 square foot house, an asphalt shingle tear-off and replacement in Union usually runs from $8,000 to $15,000. Pitch, roof layers, shingle grade, and pipe flashing move the number. A simple single-story roof lands lower. A steep or cut-up roof lands higher. Architectural shingles cost more than three-tab but last longer. If you have two layers, disposal fees push the price up. Tear-off adds labor but keeps you from hiding old problems.
This week, ask for a written quote with line items. It should list tear-off, underlayment, shingles, flashing, disposal, and warranty. Do not accept one number with no breakdown. Then compare the line items, not just the total. Call TruRoof for a shingle roofing estimate in Union. A fixed scope beats a guess. If a bid falls far below $8,000, ask what was left out. Any quote should cover deck repairs you can approve before the new shingles go down.
Once it is handled, you have a shingle roof that sheds rain and snow on I-71 winter mornings. The attic stays dry. The manufacturer warranty has the paperwork behind it. You know what you paid and why. No more tarps or ceiling stains when the next storm rolls through Union. You can close the file and forget about it.
What people in Union 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.
