How Roof Size Affects Installation Cost<\/h2>\n
The size of your roof will be the biggest factor in determining the cost to install the roof.\u00a0 Calculating the exact size of your roof can be a complex process, but you can get a general idea of your roof size by looking at the square footage of the footprint of your home.<\/p>\n
- \n
- 1000 square foot roof: $6,000 to $9,500<\/li>\n
- 1500 square foot roof: $9,000 to $14,250<\/li>\n
- 2000 square foot roof: $12,000 to $19,000<\/li>\n
- 2500 square foot roof: $15,000 to $23,750<\/li>\n
- 3000 square foot roof: $18,000 to $28,500<\/li>\n
- 3500 square foot roof: $21,000 to $33,250<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cedar Shakes v Cedar Shingles<\/h2>\n
Cedar roofs are available in two different styles: shakes and shingles.\u00a0 The choice between these two options will be important in determining the cost of your new cedar roof.<\/p>\n
Cedar Shakes<\/h3>\n
Cedar shakes are the more expensive option when it comes to cedar roofing.\u00a0 Shakes are hand split which gives them a more rustic and less uniform look.\u00a0 This also adds to their expense due to the labor involved in creating them.\u00a0 Additionally, because they are not uniform in size and shape, shakes are more difficult to install and require the skills of a highly trained professional to avoid gaps and other problems.<\/p>\n
Cedar Shingles<\/h3>\n
Cedar shingles are more expensive than a more common asphalt shingle roof, but they’re less expensive than cedar shakes.\u00a0 Cedar shingles are factory cut to precisely the same size.\u00a0 This makes them easier to install and cuts down on labor costs both during production and installation.<\/p>\n

Roof Pitch<\/span><\/p>\n
Roof pitch simply refers to how steep the roof is and is measured as the distance a roof travels vertically over a 12-inch horizontal span.\u00a0 The pitch of your roof will impact its surface area, and your roofing contractor will use a standardized pitch multiplier to determine exactly how the surface area of your roof is changed by its pitch.<\/p>\n
Roof Height<\/h3>\n
Higher roofs are typically more expensive to install.\u00a0 This means that if you have a multi-story home you can expect the cost to install your new roof to run higher than the cost to install the same roof on a single-story home.<\/p>\n
Roof Complexity<\/h3>\n
Roof complexity will take into account things like the shape of the roof, chimneys, vents, and skylights and the impact they have on the surface area of the roof and complexity of installation.\u00a0 These things can result in more material waste due to odd shaped cuts as well as complications in the installation process that may result in higher labor costs.<\/p>\n
