A full asphalt shingle roof replacement on Staten Island costs about $5,000 to $15,000+ and takes one to two days once work starts. Metal and tile cost more up front and last longer. Your roof’s size, pitch, layers and decking set the price, and a written estimate fixes it before work begins.
Many roofs need a repair, not a new roof. Start with the question that fits your situation.
Most Staten Island homeowners pay in this range for a standard asphalt shingle roof. Large roofs, steep pitches and premium materials push past the top.
Size and pitchMore squares and steeper slopes mean more material, more labor and more safety gear.
Layers to removeTearing off two layers of old roofing takes longer than one.
Decking repairsRotted wood shows up at tear-off. Insist on a per-sheet price in writing before work starts.
Chimneys, skylights and dormersEach one adds flashing work.
Permit and disposalDumpster, haul-away and permit costs belong in the quote, not on a surprise invoice.

Get my free estimateIn New York City, roof work often needs a Department of Buildings permit, and the rules depend on the scope of your job. A common rule of thumb is that replacing more than about a quarter of the roof needs one, and structural changes such as new dormers need filed plans. Rules change, so we confirm what applies and who files it before work starts.
The lowest bid and the best bid are often two different bids. Check these before you sign.
