Understanding Roofing Labor Costs Per Square with S&K Construction and Remodeling LLC

When planning a roof replacement, understanding the labor cost per square is essential to budgeting accurately. At S&K Construction and Remodeling LLC, we take pride in completing roofing projects in just one business day, ensuring top-notch quality with drone photography, and having an on-site manager to oversee the entire process from tear-off to final shingle placement. This guide will help you understand the factors that influence roofing labor costs and why our streamlined approach makes us a top choice for homeowners.

What is a Roofing Square?

A “roofing square” is 100 square feet of roofing material. Contractors use this unit to estimate labor and material costs. For example, a 2,500-square-foot roof is 25 squares, and labor costs are calculated accordingly.

Factors That Influence Roofing Labor Costs

Several factors determine how much you will pay for labor per roofing square:

1. Roofing Material

• Asphalt Shingles: $550 – $800 per square (most affordable and easiest to install)
• Metal Roofing: $800 – $1200 per square (durable but requires specialized labor)
• Tile Roofing: $400 – $600 per square (heavy and complex installation)
• Slate Roofing: $600 – $800 per square (luxurious but labor-intensive)

2. Roof Pitch and Complexity

Steep or intricate roof designs require more safety measures and labor hours, increasing the total cost.

3. Location and Seasonality

Roofing labor costs vary by region and season. Demand is higher in late summer and fall, often leading to increased pricing.

4. Project Accessibility

If your roof is hard to access or requires special equipment, labor costs may be higher.
