Stanton prices
Pricing a low-slope roof
Most flat sections on a house are small, which means the fixed costs of getting a crew there matter more than the area does.

These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Stanton is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $650 – $925 | $12,500 – $28,000 | 25 to 30 years |
| 3-tab asphalt shingleThe cheapest thing that still counts as a roof. Fewer and fewer crews will install it. | $500 – $725 | $9,500 – $22,000 | 15 to 20 years |
| Impact-rated asphalt shingleClass 4 rated. Often earns an insurance discount where hail is a factor. | $875 – $1,300 | $16,500 – $39,000 | 25 to 35 years |
What moves the price
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Access — a truck that cannot get near the house adds hours to every load
- Whether the valleys, drip edge and step flashing are being replaced or reused
Locally
Damp that arrives every morning and leaves by lunchtime is worse for a roof than rain, because nothing ever fully dries between one and the next.
Be careful with coatings sold as replacements. Coating a sound roof buys years; coating a failed one buys a fresh colour.

Questions about price
What if the decking is rotten underneath?
Some of it usually is. The important thing is that the price per sheet is agreed in writing before the tear-off, so the conversation on day two is about quantity rather than rate.
Do I have to hire anyone?
No. Take the quotes, sit on them, compare them, or throw them away. There is nothing to cancel and nothing owed.
How many contractors will contact me?
Up to three. That is a hard cap, not a guideline. Three is enough to compare and few enough that your phone stays usable.
