Re: Anyone had their roof done lately?
OK, I just had a new roof put on this month. 49 squares, $13,000. 30 yr top of the line asphalt. Tore off one asphalt roof and the underlying cedar shingle roof, and re-decked with radiant barrier plywood (OSB actually). 4 new turbine roof vents. Simple hip roof, one big L-shape, low grade. New flashing, valleys, plumbing vents, etc. I had several bids, but they varied a lot. This is in Dallas. The roofing business is slow because no hail storms all spring or summer. I think the labor cost was at least doubled, maybe tripled, by the tear offs and re-decking, just from watching them and estimating how much time was spent on what. Crew of 5-6 working dawn to dusk for 4 days.
