These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Los Alamitos is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $650 – $925 | $13,000 – $27,000 | 25 to 30 years |
| Standing-seam metalThe long game. Costs double up front and outlives two shingle roofs. | $1,500 – $2,600 | $30,000 – $75,500 | 40 to 70 years |
What moves the price
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
- The number of penetrations: chimneys, skylights, vents, solar mounts
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- Access — a truck that cannot get near the house adds hours to every load
Locally
Far enough back that the covering wears out normally, close enough that the fixings do not. That mismatch is the local problem.
Ask any contractor quoting metal to show you a standing-seam job they finished several years ago. The edges will tell you what you need to know.

Questions about price
Is this really free?
Yes. You pay nothing, now or later. Roofing contractors pay us for the introduction, which is why the service costs you nothing and why we are upfront that it is how we make money.
How long does a re-roof take?
A straightforward asphalt roof on an average house is one to three days. Tile, slate and complex rooflines take longer, and weather stops work more often than anything else.
Are you a roofing company?
No. Los Alamitos Cornerstone Roofing is a free matching service. We do not hold a roofing licence, we do not employ crews, and we never come to your house. We pass your request to independent local contractors who do the work and who you hire directly.
Find out what it costs
No cost. We email you once when a provider near you can take it on.
