I imagine you have 2 roof layers that have to be ripped off, and maybe some plywood replaced, but does not in any way justify a price as you were quoted.

Two layer tear off, but the wood is sound.

I paid $10k, 2 1/2 years ago for a 1800 sqft ranch house and a 500 sgft garage with asphalt shingles. No plywood needed replaced so that was the final. I had estimates from 6-16k on the job.

It paid us to research and shop around. We had bids up to $32K for our rough shake 60-degree pitch roof with stainless steel valleys, but got a nice job done for $13K by a company specializing in rough shake and steep roofs about 8 years ago.

I had mine replaced a few yrs ago. This pricing is on the money.

From Hippies post at 2:14pm yesterday on his quote from roofer
He said " 91.5K for steel and 50.8K for 25 year shingles. Ouch. "
How is that price on point with what you posted?

For who? My house is 1400sf. It cost me a little over 5 grand to remove one layer and replace the shingles 4 yrs ago.
My buddy down the street did his house last year for a little over 6 grand. Same size house.

Michigan must be high as hell on labor and materials. That's ridiculous.
Must be a Fking Union thing. Unions don't run shit in Texas. We are a right to work State thank God.
Unions are the goddamn reason why ppl can't afford a Fking new car anymore without going into debt for years.

Michigan is a Right to Starve state, too. Very few union roofers except for commercial jobs.

Wow! Talk about weird? The Old Hen went out to get the mail and found four boxes laying on the ground. Four boxes of Narcan! She looked down the road and it looked like everybody got a couple. My tax dollars at work!
