Roof replacement cost by home size (2026)
Prices are for a complete tear-off and re-roof installed to Florida Building Code, including underlayment, flashing, ridge venting, permits, and a workmanship warranty. Your exact price depends on pitch, number of stories, roofline complexity, and material — use the table as a planning range, not a quote.
| Roof size (surface area) | Architectural shingle | Standing seam / metal |
|---|---|---|
| 1,000 sq ft (small / single-story) | $6,500 – $11,000 | $14,000 – $24,000 |
| 1,500 sq ft | $8,500 – $15,000 | $18,000 – $32,000 |
| 2,000 sq ft (typical home) | $11,000 – $18,000 | $24,000 – $40,000 |
| 2,500 sq ft | $13,500 – $21,000 | $28,000 – $46,000 |
| 3,000+ sq ft (large / two-story) | $16,000 – $28,000 | $34,000 – $58,000 |
Ranges reflect Complete Roofing installs across Santa Rosa, Escambia, and Okaloosa counties in 2025–2026 — the full figures by material, roof size, and coastal location are in our NW Florida Roof Cost Report (2026). Tile roofing typically starts above metal.
“When a price looks too good, I go straight to what's missing — tear-off, flashing, permits. Those line items don't disappear, they just show up later as a change order. I'd rather hand a homeowner an honest number on day one than a cheap one.”
Roof cost by material — shingle vs. metal vs. tile
For most Panhandle homes, GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles are the best balance of cost, 150-mph wind rating, and resale. Metal makes the most financial sense on coastal lots (Navarre Beach, Pensacola Beach, Perdido Key) where its longevity and corrosion resistance pay off. See our full metal vs. shingle comparison for the side-by-side.
What's included in a complete-system roof price?
Every Complete Roofing replacement also adds two upgrades most local roofers charge extra for, at no added cost: a 6-nail per shingle pattern (vs. the industry-standard 4) and a taped roof deck for a secondary water barrier. Plywood decking replacement is billed per sheet only when boards are rotten — the first sheet is free, then $95 per sheet (many competitors charge up to $120).
