How we price
No discount needed. The price was never inflated.
You know the routine. A roofer quotes $28,000, spends an hour at your kitchen table, calls his manager, and comes back with “$21,000 if you sign tonight.” It feels like you won. What actually happened is that the first number was never real.
We do the opposite. Our estimator measures your actual roof and puts a real number on screen before anyone calls you — the same number whether you sign tonight or never call us back.
How your number is worked out
Your roof is measured from current satellite and aerial imagery, facet by facet, including pitch — then priced as the roof it actually is. Nobody guesses at your kitchen table, and nobody prices your roof off your house’s living square footage.
Effective roof area means your measured roof plus 15% waste — the material that gets cut off at hips, valleys, and edges on every roof, by every roofer. Upgrades available upon request.
What an up-front number lets you do
- Compare bids honestly. Get your number here first, in writing, then weigh any other bid against it on the same roof. A price you can only hear after an hour at your kitchen table isn’t one you can compare.
- Skip the appointment. You do not have to give a stranger an hour of your evening to find out roughly what your roof costs. That’s what the instant estimator is for.
- Budget before you decide. A real range is what makes a financing conversation, an insurance conversation, or a wait-a-year decision possible.
- Never feel rushed. There is no “tonight only” price here, so there is no reason to sign tonight.
Questions about how we price
Why doesn't Noland's Roofing offer discounts?
Because a discount only exists if the first number was inflated. The price the estimator shows you is the price we mean, so there is no padded starting number to cut back down at the kitchen table.
Is your price actually cheaper than a discounted quote?
Often, yes, but that isn't the point. The point is that our number is the same whether you sign tonight or think about it for a month. A '40% off today' quote tells you nothing except that the first number was negotiable.
What is 'effective roof area'?
Your measured roof area plus 15% waste. Roofing material is cut to fit hips, valleys, and edges, and the offcuts get thrown away, so every roofer buys more material than the bare measurement. Your estimate is based on that effective area, not on your house's living square footage.
What changes the price after the online estimate?
Only what we can't see from satellite imagery: rotten decking, extra layers to tear off, structural repairs, unusual access, and permit or HOA requirements. We show you those before we start, and your signed proposal is the binding number.
What do the upgrades cover?
Material and system, not crew or care. Every roof we install is done by our own crews to the same standard. Upgrades move the shingle line, the underlayment, and the warranty package. Your estimate shows a single number for the roof as specified; if you want an upgrade, ask and we will price it on the spot.
