Roof replacement cost in Massachusetts

What the numbers mean

Half of the roofing projects we estimated in Massachusetts came to less than $17,000 and half to more. The middle half — from the cheaper quarter to the most expensive quarter — fell between $13,500 and $22,000. These are full roof replacements: tear-off, new roofing system, flashing, disposal and permit.

What drives the price

• Roof size. Priced per square (100 sq ft); the roof is about 1.25 × the home's footprint once pitch and overhangs are included.
• Shingle line. Architectural shingles are the standard; designer and slate-look lines cost noticeably more per square.
• Tear-off and decking. A second layer of old shingles and any rotted decking add to the price.
• Chimneys, skylights and pitch. Each penetration needs flashing, and steep roofs take longer and need more safety equipment.
