What’s different about Dallas
Dallas's fast growth keeps contractors busy, and North Texas hail makes impact-rated roofing a routine and significant exterior cost driver.
- Impact-resistant (Class 4) shingles are common in hail country — pricier upfront but often lower on insurance.
- Hurricane codes require wind-rated shingles, extra fasteners, and sealed decking.
- Intense UV and heat favor reflective or heat-rated roofing.
How the cost is built
Roof cost scales with roof area (measured in 100 sq ft 'squares'), pitch, and material — asphalt shingles are the budget choice, while metal, tile, and slate run two to four times more. Steep or complex rooflines, multiple layers to tear off, and new decking or flashing all add to the total.
