The synthetic underlay alone that our company will put on your roof is more than $11,000 just for the material.


Eh, synthetic felt is average $2 more per square than 15# "tar paper".

Everyone as of right now should be using synthetic felt. As you can see, the cost is now in line with the old school stuff, so dont take it as an "upgrade".

Ice and water shield in the valleys....also not an "upgrade", just SOP these days. $75 for a 65ft roll vs. $35 for a 10ft piece of valley metal.....

All of the architectural shingles are damn near the same these days and everyone offers a 50 year or "lifetime" product warranty that you will never use. That is to cover defective material and that usually shows within the first 30 days of install.

These people will act like they have the new latest and greatest shite. They are all selling the same thing and all pimping the same labor crews back and forth to put it on your house.

Yes and no on the shingles. The real difference is in the warranty. Reason we put up Atlas vs the others, if something were to happen and shingles are defective, they will replace material and labor. I don’t know about some of the other but I know for sure that Owens Corning will not pay for the labor.
