Six things that change the number
Two roofs the same size can price thousands apart. Here's why.
-
Adds cost
Old layers
Each one we strip adds labor and dumpster weight.
-
Adds cost
Deck repair
Rotted boards under the old roof get replaced before new rubber goes down.
-
Adds cost
Tapered insulation
It builds slope into a ponding roof. It's often the biggest add.
-
Adds cost
Parapet walls
They need membrane run up and flashed by hand, wall by wall.
-
Adds cost
Roof access
No hatch? Then every roll and board gets carried up the stairs.
-
Per foot
Roof size
Setup costs spread out, so bigger roofs cost less per foot.
Thicker sheet, glued down: what each choice adds
60 mil EPDM runs about $1 more per square foot than 45 mil. It takes foot traffic and sun better. Expect 25 to 30 years from it, against roughly 20 for 45 mil.
Fully adhered adds about $1 to $2 a foot over mechanically attached. The sheet is glued to the whole deck, so wind can't flutter it. Here's how we put the membrane down, adhered or attached.
Cheap bids save at the seams. Thin seam tape, skipped primer, loose corner flashing. That's where leaks start.
Sometimes a repair is the cheaper answer
Lifted seams, splits and failed flashing on a sound roof get patched for a fraction of a new roof.
Widespread shrinkage, wet insulation or rubber near the end of its life change the math. Then a full rubber roof replacement is the better spend.
One inspection tells us which side your roof is on.
