What Exactly Goes Into a Roofing Estimate?

Many homeowners wonder why roofing quotes can vary. A professional estimate from Shep’s Roofing isn’t just a wild guess; it is a calculated assessment based on several specific factors unique to your property:

• Square Footage & Complexity: The overall size of your roof, the number of valleys, dormers, and the pitch (steepness) all dictate how much material and safety equipment is required.
• Material Selection: The cost varies significantly depending on whether you choose standard asphalt shingle roofing or invest in the 50+ year lifespan of premium metal roofing.
• Underlying Structural Health: If we discover rotting decking or need to perform structural & sagging roof repair due to heavy snowpack wear, this will be factored into the estimate to ensure your home remains safe.
• Ventilation Needs: Proper airflow is critical in Utah to prevent ice dams. We assess your attic ventilation and include necessary upgrades in your quote.
