The 2025 Cost vs Value report puts a full asphalt-shingle tear-off and replacement in Dallas at about $28,200 for a large 3,000-square-foot (30-square) roof, and a standing-seam metal roof at about $46,800. Most homes are priced by the “square” (100 square feet of roof), so a smaller or simpler roof costs proportionally less, and steep pitch, extra layers or bad decking cost more.
The most widely cited independent number is Remodeling magazine’s annual Cost vs Value report, which prices the same job in each city. Its 2025 Dallas figures:
| Project (30 squares, tear-off to the deck) | Dallas job cost | Value at resale |
|---|---|---|
| Asphalt shingle roof replacement | $28,211 | $16,053 (56.9%) |
| Standing-seam metal roof replacement | $46,790 | $22,742 (48.6%) |
That job is a 3,000-square-foot roof, larger than many Dallas–Fort Worth homes. Divide by 30 and you get a rough idea per square, but your own quote should be built from your roof’s actual measurements.
Most big gaps come from what is not in the cheaper quote: reused flashing, no allowance for decking, a lower shingle line, or permit and disposal left out. Line the quotes up item by item before comparing totals. Our roofing estimate checklist shows what to look for.
Demand matters too. After a big hailstorm, roofers across the area get busy at once, and schedules stretch out.
If a covered storm damaged the roof, your homeowners policy may pay for the replacement minus your deductible. It won’t pay to replace a roof just because it’s worn out. See does insurance cover a new roof in Texas.
The 2025 Cost vs Value report lists $28,211 for a 30-square asphalt-shingle replacement in Dallas. Smaller, simpler roofs cost less; steep, two-story or multi-layer roofs cost more.
A square is 100 square feet of roof surface. A 2,000-square-foot roof is 20 squares. Quotes are usually built per square, plus extras like decking, flashing and permits.
Yes. In the same Cost vs Value report, a Dallas standing-seam metal roof cost about $46,800, against about $28,200 for asphalt shingles on the same size roof.
It should. Ask whether the permit fee, inspections, tear-off, disposal and cleanup are included, and get it in writing.
