These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Buena Park is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $650 – $950 | $12,500 – $27,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch. | $1,300 – $2,100 | $24,500 – $61,000 | 40 to 60 years |
| Clay barrel tileOften salvaged and re-laid over new underlayment rather than replaced. | $1,700 – $3,400 | $32,500 – $98,500 | 50 to 80 years |
What moves the price
- How much decking turns out to be soft once the covering is stripped
- The number of penetrations: chimneys, skylights, vents, solar mounts
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Where you land in the season; crews discount when the phone is quiet
Locally
Dry offshore wind lifts material that damp coastal air had been holding down. Most wind losses here happen on a handful of nights a year.
Ask specifically whether the quote is for new tile or for relaying the existing tile. The difference is enormous and easy to miss.

Questions about price
What if the decking is rotten underneath?
Expect a few sheets on most older roofs. Get the per-sheet rate in the contract. Open-ended decking charges are where a fixed price stops being fixed.
Should I take the cheapest quote?
Only if it is the same roof. Most large gaps between quotes are scope gaps. Ask the cheapest contractor which of the other quotes items they have left out, and why.
