How Much Does a Roof Replacement Cost in Texas? (2025 Guide)

If you’re a homeowner in Texas, chances are you’ve either already dealt with a roof replacement—or you’re researching it now. Whether it’s storm damage, aging shingles, or a home improvement upgrade, one of the first questions you probably have is:

“How much is this going to cost me?”

In this 2025 Texas Roofing Cost Guide, we’ll break down:

• The average cost of roof replacement in Texas
• How pricing is affected by roof size, materials, and location
• What to expect when filing an insurance claim
• And how TIG Roofing can help you get the best value without cutting corners

📊 Average Roof Replacement Cost in Texas (2025)

As of 2025, the average cost to replace a roof in Texas ranges between:

👉 $9,000 and $18,000 for most standard-sized homes

However, several key factors will impact the final price, including:

• Roof size (square footage)
• Pitch (steepness)
• Roofing materials
• Labor costs in your area
• Tear-off and disposal fees
• Insurance involvement

Let’s break down each of these.

📐 1. Roof Size – How Big Is Your Roof?

Roofing is typically priced per square foot. Most Texas homes range between 1,500 and 3,000 square feet of living space, but that doesn’t mean your roof is the same size. Roofs often cover more surface area due to overhangs, slopes, and attached garages.

🔢 Estimated cost by home size (shingle roof):

• 1,500 sq ft home: $7,000 – $10,000
• 2,000 sq ft home: $9,000 – $14,000
• 2,500+ sq ft home: $12,000 – $18,000+

Your roofing contractor will measure the roof’s "square" footage and give you an estimate based on the total surface area—not just your floor plan.

🧱 2. Roofing Material Choices

The type of material you choose will significantly impact the cost.

🧱 Asphalt Shingles (Most Common in Texas)

• Most affordable and popular choice
• 20-30 year lifespan
• Good protection against heat and hail

💰 Cost: $3.50 – $5.50 per sq ft (installed)

🪵 Architectural / Dimensional Shingles

• More durable and layered appearance
• Better curb appeal and resale value

💰 Cost: $5.50 – $7.50 per sq ft

🛡️ Metal Roofing

• Extremely durable (40–70 years lifespan)
• Energy-efficient and fire-resistant
• Ideal for hail-prone areas

💰 Cost: $8 – $14 per sq ft

🧱 Tile or Slate Roofs

• Premium material with elegant look
• Very long lifespan (50+ years)
• Heavy, requires structural consideration

💰 Cost: $12 – $25+ per sq ft

🪜 3. Labor Costs and Roof Complexity

Labor costs vary based on:

• Pitch (steeper roofs cost more)
• Number of roof layers (more layers = more tear-off work)
• Accessibility (tight spaces or high elevations require special equipment)
• Local market conditions (urban areas may cost more)

Flat or low-slope roofs are easier and cheaper to replace.
Multi-story homes or steep-pitched roofs can increase labor costs by 10–30%.

🚛 4. Tear-Off and Disposal Costs

If your roof has existing layers of shingles, they must be torn off before a new roof can be installed.

💰 Typical tear-off and disposal fee: $1,000 – $2,500

In some cases, you may be able to install a new layer over the existing one, but this is only allowed once in most Texas cities and isn't recommended for long-term durability.

🏠 5. Does Insurance Cover Roof Replacement?

In Texas, insurance will often cover roof replacement due to hail, wind, or storm damage—especially if the roof is under 10–15 years old.

Here’s how it works:

• Your insurance covers “sudden and accidental” damage (like hail, not normal wear and tear)
• You pay your deductible (usually 1% or 2% of your home’s insured value)
• The insurance pays the rest of the replacement cost (often minus depreciation)

✅ Example:

• Your roof replacement costs $14,000
• Your deductible is 1% of a $300,000 home = $3,000
• Insurance pays the remaining $11,000

🛑 Beware of “zero-deductible” promises. It’s illegal in Texas for a contractor to waive or “eat” your deductible.
