These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Laguna Woods 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. | $625 – $975 | $11,500 – $27,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Standing-seam metalThe long game. Costs double up front and outlives two shingle roofs. | $1,500 – $2,600 | $27,000 – $73,000 | 40 to 70 years |
What moves the price
- The number of penetrations: chimneys, skylights, vents, solar mounts
- Permit and inspection fees, which vary more between towns than people expect
- 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
- Where you land in the season; crews discount when the phone is quiet
Locally
Nothing dramatic happens. A slope stays damp most mornings for thirty years, and eventually that is enough.
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
What warranty should I expect?
Ask for both in writing: the material warranty from the manufacturer and the workmanship warranty from the contractor. The second one is the one that matters in year three, and it is only as good as the company behind it.
How much deposit is normal?
Ten to thirty per cent is ordinary, and is often used to order material. A demand for full payment up front is a reason to walk away.
Can I stay in the house while it is done?
Most people do. Expect noise from early morning, dust in the attic, and a day where the driveway belongs to the crew.
