How to hire a roofing pro in United States
- Verify the state contractor license where required (Florida and California have specific roofing classifications; requirements vary widely by state)
- Demand certificates of general liability and workers' comp insurance — roofing is a high-injury trade and uninsured crews are your risk
- Get 3 like-for-like bids covering tear-off, underlayment, ice-and-water shield, flashing replacement and a per-sheet price for deck repair
- Check manufacturer certifications (e.g. GAF or Owens Corning credentialed installers) — they unlock longer material warranties
- Confirm the contractor pulls the building permit, not you
- For insurance claims, get your own adjuster's assessment before signing any assignment-of-benefits paperwork
- Get both the manufacturer warranty and a written workmanship warranty (5-10 years)
Roofing licenses are set at state level — some states (Florida, California) require a dedicated roofing classification while others have no licensing at all. Workers' comp verification matters everywhere: roofing has among the highest injury rates of any trade, and homeowners can be exposed by uninsured crews.

Frequently asked questions
What are the warning signs I need roof work?
Missing, cracked or slipped tiles/shingles; granules collecting in gutters; daylight visible in the attic; damp patches or staining on top-floor ceilings; sagging roof lines; and moss holding moisture against the surface. Catching these early usually means a repair instead of a replacement.
How much deposit should a roofer ask for?
Typically 10-30%, or enough to cover ordered materials, with the balance staged against progress and completion. Never pay in full upfront, and be wary of anyone who can start 'tomorrow' if you pay cash today — good roofers have lead times.
What should be included in a roofing quote?
Tear-off and disposal, underlayment spec, flashing replacement (not reuse), ridge and valley details, a unit price for replacing rotten decking discovered mid-job, scaffolding or edge protection, and cleanup with a magnetic nail sweep. A quote missing the deck-repair unit price is the classic setup for large mid-job extras.
Should I repair my roof or replace it?
Repair when damage is localised — a few slipped tiles, one flashing leak — and the roof is under about two-thirds of its expected life. Replace when leaks recur in different places, more than roughly 30% of the covering is failing, or repair quotes start approaching a third of replacement cost. A good roofer will show you photos from the roof to justify either answer.
Can just part of a roof be replaced?
Yes — replacing one slope or section is common after localised storm damage and costs far less than a full reroof. The trade-offs are colour mismatch with weathered existing material and tying new work into old underlayment. It makes most sense when the rest of the roof has meaningful life left.
How much does a roof replacement cost in the US?
Most homeowners pay $9,000-$18,000 for a standard asphalt shingle replacement, with the full range running roughly $6,000 to $30,000+ depending on size, pitch and region. Metal roofs typically run $15,000-$45,000. Per-square (100 sq ft) pricing of $450-$1,100 installed is the common quoting unit.
Does homeowners insurance cover roof replacement?
For sudden storm damage, usually yes — but many insurers now pay only depreciated actual-cash-value on roofs past 10-15 years old, not full replacement cost. Check your policy's roof schedule, document damage immediately, and be cautious with contractors who want to 'handle the claim for you.'
