Tornados, tropical storms, hurricanes, hail, and wind are no strangers to the Central Florida area. Great damage to roofing systems can happen during such natural disasters. Where can a homeowner find a reputable roofing company to help with roof replacement? What will a new roof cost? What factors go into the cost of a new roof? There are so many questions to ask when the time comes for a new roof. Let’s break down the stress into smaller components and work through the process of getting a new roof.
The average cost of a new asphalt roofing system in the Central Florida area is approximately $11,375 to $32,000. Of course, some aspects go into the final price of a new system.
It is best to consult with a trustworthy roofing contractor to get a proper inspection for your particular home. McHale Roofing Inc is just that company to call!

What kind of roofing systems do we provide?
We specialize in residential roofing needs but have done our fair share of commercial as well. We work with our customers offering asphalt shingles, metal, and tile. Each has its advantages so it is wise to consider all of your options before signing on the dotted line and work begins.
The cost of a new roof not only involves the material itself but also includes the following topics. Each of these would be wise to discuss with McHale Roofing upon your first inspection.
The Roof Size
This is where the bulk of the cost comes from. A roof is measured in squares. One square is equal to 100 square feet. Therefore, if a roof area is 2400 square feet, divide that number by 100. This means the roof needs 24 squares of roofing material to cover it.
Type of Roofing Material
As mentioned above, we offer asphalt, metal, and tile for residential homes. Each of these covers the home beautifully, yet offers different benefits. Asphalt is the lightest, with tile roofing needing a solid frame for support. Asphalt is the most popular, and common in the Central Florida area, while metal and tile are wise choices for standing out with unique curb appeal. Colors and styles vary with each roofing material and the options and variety are endless.
Labor
Make sure the company you hire has the proper workman’s compensation and insurance in place before stepping on your roof. This gives you peace of mind that the company is honest in their business, and respects both you and their employees, and the safety of all involved.
Disposal of Old Material
Once the decision is made to replace an existing roof, something must be done with the old roofing material. Asphalt does not recycle well and unfortunately ends up in many landfills. Tile and Metal can be reused for new projects.
Ask the company how they plan to respect your property. Will they lay down tarps or have a dumpster available to properly dispose of the old material? Make sure you understand their policies regarding cleanup after the project is complete.
