Roof Replacement Cost by Home Size
Your roof surface is always larger than your home's footprint because of overhangs and pitch. Use this table as a starting estimate for architectural shingles — the most common choice in Central Florida.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 – 1,400 sq ft | 14–18 squares | $8,000 – $11,500 | $14,000 – $20,000 |

What's Included in Every One World Roofing Estimate
Unlike estimates that add line items after the project starts, One World Roofing provides a complete written scope upfront. Every estimate includes:
5 Factors That Affect Roof Cost in Florida
A steeper pitch requires scaffolding and more labor time. Low-slope roofs (3:12 and under) are fastest to install; steep roofs (8:12+) can add 15–30% to labor cost.
Architectural shingles offer the best value in Florida. Tile lasts 2–3x longer but costs 2–3x more upfront. Metal has the highest upfront cost and the lowest 50-year lifecycle cost.
OSB or plywood sheathing damaged by moisture is discovered during tear-off. One World Roofing quotes deck replacement at $80–$120 per board — only what is damaged, not a flat per-square-foot charge.
Permit fees in Central Florida range from $200 (small Osceola repairs) to $900+ (large Pinellas replacements). Permits are non-negotiable — any contractor who offers to skip the permit is putting your homeowner's insurance and property title at risk.
Pinellas, Brevard, Indian River, and Volusia counties require Florida Building Code High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) or Wind-Borne Debris Region components. These cost slightly more but are legally required and protect your home.
Commercial Roofing Costs — Central Florida
Commercial roofing is priced per roofing square (100 sq ft). System choice, building height, and access complexity are the primary cost drivers.
| System | Cost per Square (100 sq ft) | Lifespan | Common Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPO (60-mil) | $350 – $600/sq | 20–30 years | Warehouses, retail, offices |
| EPDM Rubber | $300 – $550/sq | 20–25 years | Low-slope commercial |
| Modified Bitumen | $350 – $650/sq | 15–25 years | Multi-ply, high UV resistance |
| Metal Standing Seam | $700 – $1,200/sq | 40–70 years | Long-term commercial solution |
| Flat Shingle Over (repair) | $150 – $300/sq | Varies | Targeted repair sections |
