Florida permit guide →Roofings — what homeowners ask
A new roof costs $5,000-$30,000+ depending on size, materials, and location. Asphalt shingles cost $3-$5/sqft, metal roofing runs $7-$15/sqft, and slate or tile can exceed $15-$25/sqft. The average home with 2,000 sqft of roof area pays $8,000-$15,000.
Asphalt shingles last 20-30 years, metal roofs last 40-70 years, and slate or tile roofs can last 75-100+ years. Roof lifespan depends on material quality, installation, climate, and maintenance.
Replace your roof when you notice curling or missing shingles, leaks, granule loss in gutters, sagging, or if the roof is approaching its expected lifespan. Most insurance companies and home inspectors recommend replacement at 20-25 years for asphalt shingles.
