Every roof will be different depending on the size of the roof, the materials needed , labor and if the house is one or two story.

A few materials that you will need to check pricing for is felt, different types of shingles, nails, flashing, drip edge, pipe jacks, and decking.

You can call a local supplier with those details and they will be able to give you a ball park figure.
