What Does It Cost To Re-Roof a 2,000 sq. ft. House in Conroe, TX

The Estimated Cost

  • On average in SoutheastTexas, a standard asphalt shingle roof replacement runs about $11,000 to $14,000 for a 2,000 sq ft home.
  • If higher-end materials or more complexity (steep pitch, many features, higher wind-rating) come into play, you might see $15,000 to $20,000+ in the Conroe/Houston region.
  • For premium materials (metal, tile) or roofs with additional complications, costs could jump further (e.g., metal $15,000–$30,000+).


Other Factors That Affect Cost

  • Roof size vs home size: A 2,000 sq ft home typically has more roof area (including overhangs, hips, valleys) than just 2,000 sq ft of roof surface.
  • Material choice: Basic asphalt shingle is lowest cost. Architectural shingles, metal, tile will typically cost more.
  • Roof pitch & complexity: Steep roofs, multiple dormers, chimneys, skylights will raise both labor and material cost.
  • Tear-off vs overlay: For older roofs, removing old roofing layers adds cost (for disposal, labor).
  • Conditions/locale: In the Conroe/Houston/SE Texas area you’ll face wind/rain/hurricane zone factors which can add cost (higher-wind rated materials, code compliance).
  • Additional repairs: If the decking is damaged, flashing needs replacement, or ventilation is inadequate, costs go up.
  • Access and logistics: If the home is two-story, tight lot, or difficult to access, that may increase labor time.


Rough Estimate for Your Case

Assuming a fairly standard one-story or moderate two-story house, average roof pitch, asphalt shingles:

  • Low end: ~$10,000–$12,000
  • Mid range: ~$13,000–$15,000
  • Higher end (premium materials or more complexity): $16,000–$20,000+

If you go with metal or tile, expect at least ~$15,000–$30,000 depending on material and structure.
