Roofing costs?

[jennyo]

Earlier this year we were looking at buying a distressed property that needed a new roof and the bids were in the $17K range for a single story, 2200sf ranch house with alot of “peaks.” Our friends just re-roofed their 3,000sf single story duplex and paid $18K. Both were for 30-year composition shingles. Metal and tile are much more costly but last longer.

This is not as recent, but we had a 30-year comp shingle roof put on our 1600sf house in 2006 for $10,000. The previous roof was shake with a layer of comp over it, so they had to tear the whole thing off and put down plywood before doing the new shingles. Has held up marvelously.

These are all in the Sacramento area so not sure whether there are regional cost differences with roofers.

I know an excellent roofer. His name is Tim Yanitor, and his company is T.C. Enterprises, tel # 619-920-8000. He’s a “general building contractor specializing in roofing” according to his business card. His address is in Spring Valley but he works all over the county (we’re no. county coastal).

I don’t know what Tim charged our General Contractor to do our roof because we were on a fixed price contract w/the GC (but that also means that Tim probably was the low bidder). I know that Tim is our GC’s first pick for roofers as long as price is right.

Tim stands out as one of the most pleasant and professional subs who built our house. He had a great crew, cleaned up the job site every day, and was very accommodating. Our job was a little complicated because our architect had designed various hip roofs that were a little tricky, but Tim was way into doing it right even though it took a day or so longer than he predicted. He was a good communicator and totally professional. He worked with one other guy who had been with him for awhile. Both were incredibly hard workers in tough, brutally hot conditions but always had a great attitude and really took pride in what they did.

Our roof looks great and has held up fine so far (although it’s been a little less than a year).

Good luck!

EDIT – Sorry, I got a little carried away…I just re-read and realized you were just looking for a rough idea of cost, not a name. Tim’s the kind of guy who would probably give you a ballpark estimate on the phone if you call him.

[quote=Drew]Has anyone had any roofing work done recently?

I’m curious as to how much I should expect to spend to re-roof a 1900sqft, single story home with a two car garage and light-sloping roof. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I inspect roofs for large shingle/roll manufacture. Do not get a warranty from a roofer their life spans are 2 years in this economy. Get an authorized roofer to install a manufacture warranty they hold their worth. Do not get an asphaltic product on a light sloping portion (under 2″/12″ pitch) go with a reflective single ply. If you really want good info send me an email if you really want a good roof.
