How much does a roof cost for a 2000 sq home in Ocean County, NJ?

The cost to install a roof on a 2000 sq foot home will vary from home to home, it can be difficult to give an exact price within an article but we will do our best. Some of the following things will determine the cost of a new roof:

1. Pitch of the roof (how steep it is)
   
2. Type of desired roofing material
   
3. Unforeseen damages such as rot or water damage 
   
4. Tear-off (ripping off old roof), new construction or overlay (putting new shingles on old ones)
   
5. Difficult roof (lots of angles, various pitches or chimneys etc.)
   

For the purpose of this article will assume you have an easily walkable roof pitch (steepness). We will also assume that the cost to replace the roof also includes tearing off the old shingles, labor and new shingles. There can be additional items such as pipe boots, drip edges and premium flashing which may make the cost of the roof more expensive. In most cases a roof of this type would require a team of 5-6 roofers about a day to complete. The overall cost to replace a roof of the size would be between $8,500-$12,000. If your home is really steep, has multiple gables, chimneys or skylights the price might be slightly higher. 
Like we mentioned before, this estimate is just an example. To get an exact estimate for the roof replacement you would need to call a roofing contractor in Ocean County. The best way to get an exact estimate is to have one of our roofing experts discuss over the phone or in person the potential costs for materials, labor and parts such as drip edges and pipe boots. Residential roof replacement jobs should be considered an investment at the homes since it tends to add value to the property and protects everything inside the home. Remember that the roof is an investment in the property, 
If you decide to replace the roof by yourself the cost will be cheaper but you will need to have someone on the roof with you who is experienced in the roofing industry. Improper installation is one of the biggest reasons why a roof fails and doesn't last as long as the lifetime expectancy from the manufacturer.
