How Material Impacts Roof Replacement Cost<\/h2>\n

Asphalt Shingle Roofing<\/h3>\n

Asphalt shingle roofs are the most common roofing option in Mobile.\u00a0 They’re also the most affordable option.\u00a0 A new asphalt shingle roof will cost between $10,000 and $18,000 depending on which style of shingle you choose.\u00a0 In addition to being affordable, asphalt shingle roofs are both reliable and durable making them an excellent choice.<\/p>\n

Tile Roofing<\/h3>\n

Synthetic tile roofing is more affordable than natural clay or concrete tiles, but benefits from being both durable and beautiful.\u00a0 You can expect to pay around $15,000 to $22,000 when your replace your roof with synthetic tiles.<\/p>\n

Roof Size and Replacement Cost<\/h2>\n

Once you’ve decided what material you’re planning to use for your roof replacement the next biggest factor in the cost of the roof replacement is the size of the roof.\u00a0 Roofers measure roofs in square.\u00a0 One square is equal to 100 square feet.\u00a0 While most people are used to measuring materials in price per square foot, the cost of roofing materials is often given in price per square.\u00a0 In 2022, the median home size in Mobile was around 2500 square feet – this doesn’t necessarily mean that’s the size of the roof, though.\u00a0 The size of the roof is mainly determined by the size of the home’s footprint, so if your home is 3000 square feet, but has 3 stories it’s likely that your roof is much smaller.\u00a0 The easiest way to determine the footprint of your home is to walk the perimeter for general measurements and then determine the surface area from there.<\/p>\n

Why is Pitch Important?<\/h2>\n

The pitch, or slope, of your roof plays an important role in determining the squares needed for your roof replacement.\u00a0 Pitch is the distance a roof travels vertically over a 12 inch horizontal span.\u00a0 Roofing contractors use a standardized “pitch multiplier” to determine how the roof size changes depending on the pitch of the roof.\u00a0 As the roof gets steeper the surface area gets larger.\u00a0 For example, a 1000 square foot roof with a 3\/12 pitch will be around 1031 square feet or 10.31 square.\u00a0 In contrast, a 1000 square foot roof with a 9\/12 pitch will be around 1250 square feet or 12.5 square.<\/p>\n

Roof Complexity Affects Cost of Replacement<\/h2>\n

The complexity of the roof can also have a big impact on the cost of replacing your roof in Mobile.\u00a0 Complexity, as the name suggests, refers to how complex the roof is.\u00a0 A simple, side gable roof will take less roofing material and less labor to reroof than a crossed gable roof with multiple dormers. The more complex the roof, the more expensive the replacement.<\/p>\n
