When you are thinking about repairing or replacing your roof, one of the first questions you will want answered is simple: How much will it cost? The problem is most roofing companies avoid giving a clear answer until they are sitting at your kitchen table. That approach creates confusion and makes it hard for you to plan.
We do things differently. We believe you should have clear, honest pricing before we even meet. That way, when we prepare your detailed proposal, you already understand the investment range and the factors that influence it.
Our goal is not to be the cheapest roofer. Our goal is to be the last roofer you will ever need.
Roof Replacement Packages and Pricing
Every roof we install uses Malarkey polymer-modified asphalt shingles. These are engineered for superior durability, weather resistance, and longevity compared to traditional oxidized asphalt shingles. We offer three main packages so you can choose the option that best fits your needs and budget.
Package | Shingle | Price Range per SQ | Best For |
Preferred Roof Package | Malarkey Highlander | $650 – $700 | Budget-conscious homeowners who still want the benefits of polymer-modified shingles. |
Premium Roof Package | Malarkey Vista | $725 – $775 | Homeowners looking for enhanced curb appeal, higher wind ratings, and longer protection. |
Elite Roof Package | Malarkey Legacy | $800 – $850 | Those who want the highest level of storm resistance, the longest lifespan, and the best overall performance. |
One roofing “square” equals 100 square feet of roof area. Most single-family homes fall in the range of 20 to 30 squares. For example, a 25 SQ home with no steep pitch or extras would cost approximately:
- Preferred: $16,250 – $17,500
- Premium: $18,125 – $19,375
- Elite: $20,000 – $21,250
This pricing includes removal and disposal of the old roof, installation of the new roof, and all standard flashing.
How Roof Pitch Affects Pricing
Steeper roofs require more safety equipment, more time, and more labor to install correctly. This adds to the cost. If your roof has a pitch greater than 6/12, you can expect these adjustments:
- 8/12 pitch: add $25 per square
- 10/12 pitch: add $50 per square
- 12/12 pitch: add $75 per square
These adjustments cover the extra labor and safety requirements that come with working on steeper slopes.
Additional Services and Pricing
Many roofing projects involve more than just shingles. Here is what you can expect for other common services:
Service | Pricing |
Gutters | $16 per linear foot |
Downspouts | $200 each |
Skylights | $2,000 each (includes solar blinds, non-opening) |
Chimney Flashing | $500 – $750 |
Emergency Tarping | $300 – $3,000 (most between $300 – $600) |
Skylights can add natural light and energy efficiency to your home. Proper chimney flashing is critical to prevent leaks where the chimney meets the roof. Emergency tarping is designed to quickly protect your home after storm damage and prevent further water intrusion.
Roof Repairs and Diagnostic Fees
Not every roof issue means you need a full replacement. For smaller problems like leaks, missing shingles, or attic ventilation concerns, we offer professional repair services.
We charge a $175 diagnostic fee to inspect, identify the issue, and provide a detailed repair plan. If you choose to move forward with the repair, this fee is credited toward the final repair cost. This approach ensures you are paying for our professional expertise and not just a “guess.”
What Affects the Final Price of Your Roof
While the charts above give you a strong starting point, your exact price can vary depending on several factors:
Roof size
The larger your roof, the more materials and labor are needed.
Pitch and complexity
Multiple valleys, dormers, and steep slopes add complexity and labor hours.
Material choice
Choosing Highlander, Vista, or Legacy shingles affects not only the initial cost but also the lifespan and performance of your roof.
Additional services
Upgrades like skylights, gutters, or chimney flashing will add to the total.
Labor quality
We only use dedicated, vetted crews who are trained to install our roofing systems the right way. We never use “labor auctions” or random subcontractors. This ensures consistent quality and protects your warranty.
Why We Share Pricing Upfront
Transparency is important because it allows you to compare apples to apples when you talk to multiple contractors. Many low bids use cheaper crews, cheaper materials, and skip important installation steps that you will not notice until a few years down the road.
By knowing our ranges in advance, you can focus on the bigger question: Which company will give me the best value and the most peace of mind?
Understanding Cost Per Year
One of the best ways to compare roofing options is to break the cost down over the lifespan of the roof.
Roof Type | Total Cost | Expected Lifespan | Cost Per Year |
Cheap 3-tab shingles | $13,000 | 12 years | $1,083/year |
Malarkey Legacy (polymer-modified) | $21,000 | 35 years | $600/year |
Even though the Legacy roof costs more up front, the cost per year is significantly lower. Over time, you save money and avoid the hassle of replacing your roof again in just 12 to 15 years.
Financing Options
We offer 0% interest for 12 months with no monthly payments, as well as low-interest monthly payment plans. This makes it possible to get the roof you want without draining your savings or delaying other important projects. Financing can also be a smart option if your cash is tied up in investments or if you simply want to keep your emergency fund intact.
