Snow, hailstorms, strong winds, and hot UV rays from the summer sun can cause the roofs of our homes to become weak and frail. Has the time come for you to consider a new roofing system due to one of these issues? Perhaps your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan. How much can I expect to pay for a new asphalt roof in Wichita?
The average cost of a new asphalt shingle roof in Wichita is between $5,625 and $18,000. The cost is $375 to $600 per square. This cost depends on a variety of factors including the size of your home, the roofing materials used, and the installation costs of the Wichita roofing contractor.
Here is a rough estimate of the breakdown:
- 15 square roof: $5,625 to $9,000
- 20 square roof: $7,500 to $12,000
- 25 square roof: $9,375 to $15,000
- 30 square roof: $11,250 to $18,000
Considering the varying prices, it is wise to contact VersaCon, LLC in Wichita for an accurate estimate for your particular home.
Roofs are measured in “squares”. A 100-square-foot area is considered 1 square in roofing terms. To simplify, the amount of material needed to cover 100 square feet of roof area is equal to 1 square of roofing material. So, as an example, if a roof surface area is 2000 square feet, the contractor would figure 20 squares. You can approximate how many squares your home is by dividing the square feet of your roof area by 100.
