Dana Point prices
Pricing a full re-roof in Dana Point
Two houses on the same street can differ by a third on the same job. Pitch, layers, decking and access account for nearly all of it.
Or call (949) 849-0297These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Dana Point is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $700 – $1,000 | $12,500 – $24,000 | 25 to 30 years |
| 3-tab asphalt shingleThe cheapest thing that still counts as a roof. Fewer and fewer crews will install it. | $550 – $775 | $9,900 – $18,500 | 15 to 20 years |
| Impact-rated asphalt shingleClass 4 rated. Often earns an insurance discount where hail is a factor. | $900 – $1,400 | $16,000 – $33,500 | 25 to 35 years |
| Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch. | $1,300 – $2,200 | $23,500 – $53,000 | 40 to 60 years |
What moves the price
- How much decking turns out to be soft once the covering is stripped
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Where you land in the season; crews discount when the phone is quiet
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
- Permit and inspection fees, which vary more between towns than people expect
Locally
Slopes that never get direct sun stay wet for hours after the fog burns off, and that is where moss, lifted shingles and soft decking start.
Use these as a sanity check rather than a quote. If every number you are shown sits well outside this range in either direction, that is worth asking about.

Questions about price
How long does a re-roof take?
A straightforward asphalt roof on an average house is one to three days. Tile, slate and complex rooflines take longer, and weather stops work more often than anything else.
It is leaking right now. What do I do?
Contain the water, photograph everything, and get the request in marked as an emergency. A tarp is the right first job. The permanent repair is a separate conversation and a separate price.
Do I have to hire anyone?
Not at all. Plenty of people use this to find out what a job costs and then do nothing for a year. That is a perfectly reasonable outcome.
