Roofing Pricing Guide (2025): A Simple Structure That Holds Margin

Roofing bids fail when they're:

  • Hard to compare
  • Hard to trust
  • Hard to approve

Keep the structure simple and explicit.

Core line items

  • Squares (base)
  • Tear-off
  • Disposal
  • Underlayment / ice & water
  • Ridge / flashing

Upgrades (where margin lives)

  • Better shingle
  • Ventilation
  • Gutter add-ons

Deposits

A deposit locks crew time and materials. Make it normal and easy.
