How much does a new roof cost in Chicago?
A typical asphalt shingle reroof in Chicago runs about $16k, with most jobs landing between $8.3k and $23k depending on roof size, pitch, and material. Local labor in Chicago runs about 7 percent above the national average, which is already reflected in these figures.
What makes a roof cost more or less?
Roof size and steepness, tearing off old layers, the material you pick (basic three tab, architectural shingle, or metal), and how many stories your home is. Steep or multi story roofs cost more because of the added labor and safety setup.
