Your roof protects your home, family, and everything inside it — but when it’s time for a replacement, one of the first questions homeowners ask is: How much does it cost?
At Roof Smith, we believe in transparency and helping you make informed decisions. Here’s a breakdown of what goes into the cost of a new residential roof and what you can expect to invest in protecting your home.
1. The Average Cost of a Roof Replacement
In the Texas Panhandle region — including Amarillo, Canyon, Lubbock, and surrounding areas — the average residential roof replacement typically ranges from $10,000 to $18,000.
That number can vary depending on factors like:
Roof size and slope (steeper roofs require more labor)
Material choice (asphalt shingles, metal, tile, or designer shingles)
Tear-off and disposal of the old roof
Underlayment, flashing, and ventilation upgrades
2. Most Common Roofing Materials and Their Costs
Asphalt shingles: $4.50–$6.50 per square foot
Designer or impact-resistant shingles: $6.50–$8.50 per square foot
Metal roofing: $8.00–$12.00 per square foot
Clay or concrete tile: $10.00–$15.00 per square foot
Each material carries its own benefits in durability, appearance, and resale value — and our team can help you choose the one that fits your budget and goals.
3. Why Roof Replacement Costs Are Worth It
A new roof adds more than just protection — it can increase your home’s curb appeal, energy efficiency, and property value. In most cases, homeowners recoup a large portion of their investment through improved home resale and reduced repair costs.
4. How to Get an Accurate Estimate
