Notes

  • Where the number comes from. The national price for a full asphalt shingle roof replacement is $560 per square — installed asphalt shingle pricing published for 2026, $3.50–$10.00 per ft² of roof. Labor is about 60% of that. Roofers near Gilbert, AZ average $51,720 a year against a U.S. mean of $58,140 — a factor of 0.89 — so the labor half is scaled by that and the material half is not.

  • Why the city matters, not just the state. Trade pay moves inside a state as much as it does between states. Crews do not commute across a state to bid a job, and materials ship at national prices either way — so a metro wage is the honest input here and a state average quietly rounds four different cities into one number.
  • Hot-weather install. 173 days a year at or above 90°F in Gilbert. Shingles scuff and seal early in that heat, so crews start at dawn and the good ones charge for it.
  • What is in the price: tear-off of one layer, synthetic underlayment, architectural shingles, starter, ridge cap, drip edge, nails, disposal and labor.
  • What is not: decking replacement, chimney or skylight flashing rebuilds, structural repair, and permits. These are the lines that turn a $13,072 quote into a $16,341 invoice, so ask about each one before signing.
  • Use this as a bid check, not a quote. It prices an average job in average condition. Difficult access, the state of what is being replaced, the season, and a crew booked out three months all move the real number, and none of them are in a per-unit average.

The lines that turn a quote into an invoice

Ask about each of them before you sign. On a job this size they are the difference between $13,072 and something a quarter higher.

Use it as a bid check, not a quote

This prices an average job in average condition. Access, the state of what is being replaced, the season, and a crew booked out three months all move the real number, and none of them are in a national average.

If a bid lands outside $8,871 – $21,009, that is not automatically wrong — but it is the question worth asking out loud.
