Common Questions

Yes, a building permit is required for all full roof replacements. In 2026, the permit fee for a $12,000 project is approximately $316.20, while a $25,000 project costs about $591 based on valuation.

For architectural asphalt shingles, the most common material in the Twin Cities, homeowners can expect to pay between $5.75 and $8.25 per square foot installed in 2026, including labor and tear-off.

Metal roofing is significantly more expensive, ranging from $12 to $22 per square foot ($26,400–$48,400 total), but it offers superior snow shedding and a lifespan of 40-70 years compared to 25-30 years for asphalt.

If the replacement is due to sudden storm damage like hail or wind, insurance often covers the cost minus a deductible. In 2026, typical deductibles for Twin Cities homeowners range from $2,500 to $5,000.
