How Michigan roofing is priced

Roofers price by the "square" (100 sq ft of roof). In Michigan, 3-tab asphalt runs about $3.50–$4.50/sq ft installed, architectural shingles $4.50–$6, and standing-seam metal $7–$12. Because your roof is larger than your home's footprint, we multiply by a slope factor (about 1.3× for a typical roof, more for steep or cut-up roofs).

Tear-off and extras

Removing the old roof adds roughly $1–$3/sq ft for labor and disposal — usually worth it over a layover for longevity. Decking repair, new flashing and vents, ice-and-water shield (important in Michigan winters), and permits are additional and vary by home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to replace a roof in Michigan?

A typical Michigan asphalt-shingle roof replacement runs about $4–$7 per square foot installed, or roughly $9,000–$20,000 for an average home. Standing-seam metal costs more, often $9–$15+ per square foot.

How much does a metal roof cost in Michigan?

Standing-seam metal roofs typically run $7–$12+ per square foot of roof area installed in Michigan — about double the cost of architectural shingles, but with a much longer lifespan.

Does the estimate include tearing off the old roof?

Yes — this estimate adds an allowance for tear-off and disposal. Steeper or more complex roofs need more material and labor, which the slope setting accounts for.

How long does a roof last in Michigan?

In Michigan's freeze-thaw climate, 3-tab asphalt shingles typically last 15–20 years, architectural shingles 25–30 years, and standing-seam metal 40–70 years.
