The size and type of roof on your home or building are the largest factors affecting cost. Asphalt shingles are a popular choice due to their appearance and lower cost. If you're looking to upgrade your roofing to metal, it will on average cost 2.5 times more than asphalt. Fancier roofs such as composite or chedar shake can cost up to 3 times more. Most material are priced by square footage, so larger roofs will cost more regardless of materials.

The slop angle of your roof will affect the cost. When steep slopes requrie the use of extra safety equipment, this increases the time, and subsequent price, of roofing installation. As an example, an average size open gable roof with steep slopes costs around $1,250-$2,500 more than a flat, walkable roof of similar size.
Typically the best times for replacing your roof are in the spring, fall, or early winter. Summer is considered the busiest time for roof replacement, with msot roofing jobs increasing in price by 5-15%.
The cost of a roof repair in Wisconsin will depend on the size and type of repair, along with the area of the roof and the material needing to be fixed. The average roof repair in Wisconsin can cost as little as $200 or more than $3,000. The longer roof damage goes without being addressed, the worse the damage will be - causing the repair cost to increase over time. When roofs get left untreated for long enough, the damage could become irreversible and may require a full roof replacement.
There are several key factors that determine the cost of a roof repair. Every case is different, but there are common variables to keep in mind so you know what to expect:
The bigger the damaged area, the more the repair is likely to cost. Common roof repairs like missing or damaged shingles can cost around $10 per square foot to repair (not including labor costs).
Common repairs like leaks may cost only a few hundred dollars. Larger scale damage like holes, roof decay, or warping will require the repair contractor to fix more complicated areas of the roof like the underlayment and/or decking, boosting the cost.
Roof repair costs will vary depending on the material being repaired. On average, repairs to an asphalt roof will cost less than repairs on a metal roof, for example.
Roof height, shape, and pitch will all impact the price of roof repair. Steeper, more complex roofs require an extra level of precision and safety that often come with longer repair times, increasing the price of the repair.
Roof leaks requiring minor repairs such as replacing faulty nails or a pipe boot can cost between $300 and $500. More major repairs like leaking skylights or soffit/fascia replacement can be upwards of $500-$2,000 depending on the extent of the damage.
