What best describes your home?

Different buildings need different crews, so this is the first thing a roofer asks.

Nothing is charged and nothing is booked.

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.

CoveringPer squareTypical whole roofExpected life
Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one.$650 – $925$12,500 – $28,00025 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 – $22,00015 to 20 years
Impact-rated asphalt shingleClass 4 rated. Often earns an insurance discount where hail is a factor.$875 – $1,300$16,500 – $39,00025 to 35 years
Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch.$1,200 – $2,100$23,000 – $63,00040 to 60 years
Standing-seam metalThe long game. Costs double up front and outlives two shingle roofs.$1,500 – $2,600$28,500 – $78,00040 to 70 years

What moves the price

  • Permit and inspection fees, which vary more between towns than people expect
  • Warranty tier, which is really a question about who honours it in fifteen years
  • Whether the valleys, drip edge and step flashing are being replaced or reused
  • Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
  • How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on

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.

Use these as a sanity check rather than a quote. If every number you are shown sits well outside this range in either direction, that is worth asking about.

These are estimates, not quotes. They are compiled from national installed ranges adjusted for California costs and for how Stanton is built. No contractor is bound by them.

Questions about price

Do you handle commercial buildings?

We do. It is a different set of contractors — commercial and low-slope work is a separate trade from residential re-roofing — so answering the property question accurately matters.

How long should a roof last here?

An architectural asphalt roof is rated for twenty-five to thirty years and, in this climate, tends to land at the lower end of that. Tile and metal go much further, provided what is underneath them is maintained.

What does a new roof cost in Stanton?

Most quotes here for a standard asphalt replacement come in around $12,500 to $28,000. That assumes one layer to remove and sound decking. Every quote you get should say in writing what happens if the decking is not sound.
