The eight things that set the price
- Roof size. Measured in squares (100 sq ft). Bigger roofs spread setup costs, but material scales with area.
- Pitch and height. Steep or tall roofs need more safety equipment and slower, careful work.
- Complexity. Every valley, hip, dormer, chimney and skylight adds custom trim and labor. A simple gable is the lowest cost per square; a cut-up roof is the highest.
- Tear-off. Removing one or more layers of shingles, plus disposal, is part of most re-roofs.
- Deck repairs. Rotted or soft decking found during tear-off is replaced. We photograph it and tell you before we do it.
- Underlayment. Metal roofs in Texas heat call for high-temperature synthetic underlayment.
- Panel and finish. Seam profile, panel width, and paint system (Galvalume vs. painted finishes) all change material cost.
- Trim and flashings. Ridge, eave, rake, and wall flashings are formed to match. Color-matched pipe flashings and vents add a cleaner finish.
Why forming in-house matters for your price
We run our own roll formers and standing seam machine, so panels are made to the exact length of your roof. That means no end laps on most runs, less waste, and no waiting on an outside shop's schedule.
Standing seam vs. the alternatives
Standing seam usually costs more up front than R-panel or Class 4 shingles. In return you get hidden fasteners and no screws to re-check over the life of the roof. Our metal vs. Class 4 guide lays out the tradeoffs.
