How much does roof replacement cost?
Most roof replacement falls between $2,215 and $8,638, with a typical figure near $4,374 per job.

Is Roofing cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Virginia.
How many quotes should I get for roof replacement?
