The national average cost to replace a roof is 7 211 with most homeowners spending between 4 707 and 10 460 roof installation cost ranges from 400 to 550 per square depending on the roof size and materials used in reroofing.

What does a roof replacement cost in detail.
Actual costs will depend on job size conditions and options.
Roofing material is estimated by the square which is equal to 100 square feet.
Many homes have an asphalt shingle roof but some have wood metal tile and slate which can be more expensive.
For estimating purposes we also assume that there is a chimney a couple of dormers and two layers of old shingles that need to be torn off and removed before a new roof.
Thus at the mid point of the above price range you can expect to pay about 4 50 per sq.
Assuming this is a hip roof we multiply this by 1 1 which gives us roughly 18 squares or 1 800 square feet of the roof surface.
Expect to spend 1 500 to 3 000 to remove your current roof before installing a replacement.
However most roofing contractors will price your roof per square meaning 100 square ft.
