So you need a new roof and to make sure you are getting the best bang for your buck, you want to get a few estimates for comparison.  Good call!

So this week I am going to break down what factors go into that final number you see. By knowing these factors it will help you make a more informed decision and ask the right questions when getting estimates.

So here are things a contractor is going to consider when pricing your roof: 

• Roof size
• Slope
• Job complexity
• Number of existing layers
• New material to be installed
• Underlayment and accessories
• Material waste
• Ventilation to be installed
• Flashing work to be done
• Trash disposal costs
• Labor costs
• Overhead costs (insurance / advertising / trucks /cost of doing business / etc)
• Profit

Sometimes it easy to just compare numbers, but buy knowing all the components that make up a roofing quote, I hope this list is helpful when its time to replace yours!
