Good roofing contractors Baton Rouge area?
Also, any ideas on approximate replacement cost per sq foot?

About $450/square (10’x10’)for removal and replacement labor and materials

Coleman roofing has been good

Would this number include interior repairs or just roof/roof deck?

Every home is different, prices don't translate from one home to the next.

Blanco's Roofing did a repair for a friend recently.

Got a buddy that works for Premier South and they seem to do well

Sometimes during heavy rains, a roof will leak because the roof install or the material choice could have been better based on the design of the roof. That roof could leak today and not leak again unless the exact conditions are replicated a second time. When I say replicated, I mean rainfall amounts, wind speeds from the same direction, etc. It could never leak again or it could leak next week.

This doesn't mean that a competent roofer shouldn't look at and diagnose the problem, but it also doesn't mean that you should jump into roof replacement.

Not sure if you’re looking for a full roof replacement but if you are we could do it for a lot less than $450 a square. We’re located in Swla but we don’t mind traveling. Licensed and insured as well.

Out of curiosity. Do you sub your work or do you do it yourself

We do both actually. We’d love to do it all ourselves obviously to cut down on labor costs. But if we get too busy and stretched thin for time we have a sub crew just to ensure wait times aren’t outrageous.
