For a standard 1,600 sq ft triplex, an EPDM/TPO roof costs between $14,500 and $19,000, while a high-end elastomeric membrane ranges from $30,000 to $36,000.

Yes, steep slopes or complex rooflines (common in older Montreal cottages) can increase labor costs by 25-40% due to the need for specialized safety equipment and slower installation speeds.
