What's included

What's included in a shingle roof install?

Every vetted pro does the job by the book, so it's done right the first time.

Pick your shingle

Basic 3-tab or thicker architectural shingles, in the color you like. Your pro helps you choose what fits your home and budget.

A solid, sealed base

New underlayment and flashing go down first. This hidden layer is what really keeps the water out.

Nailed down to last

Each shingle is nailed the right way so it holds in high wind. Done by the book, your roof stays put through storms.

Clean up and warranty

They haul off the old roof, sweep for nails, and hand you a written warranty. A clean job and real peace of mind.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Still have a question? Talk to our team →

Most shingle roofs cost $6,000-$18,000. Basic 3-tab shingles cost the least; thicker architectural and designer shingles cost more. Your real price depends on roof size, shingle type, and ZIP. We show a fair range, then vetted pros give real quotes - free, no pressure.
Architectural shingles last 25 to 30 years; basic 3-tab shingles last about 15 to 20. A good install and good care help your roof reach the high end of that range.
3-tab shingles are flat, thin, and cheapest. Architectural shingles are thicker, last longer, hold up better in wind, and look richer. Most homeowners now pick architectural for the small extra cost.
Most homeowners hear from a vetted local pro the same day. You compare a few fair quotes side by side, with no spam and no pressure to hire.

The job will still be there next month.

It will just cost more, and you will be choosing in a hurry - which is how most people end up with the contractor they regret. Getting matched takes about a minute and costs nothing.
