What you’re paying for

What Affects the Cost of a New Roof

Every roof is different, so every estimate is too. These are the things that shape the price of yours.

Size and pitch

The bigger and steeper the roof, the more materials and labor it takes to replace it.

Roofing material

Traditional shingles are less expensive than metal roofing, but metal roofing is designed to last up to twice as long.

What’s under the shingles

When the old roof comes off, any rotten or damaged decking underneath has to be replaced before the new roof goes on.

Building code items

Ice and water barrier at the eaves and valleys, drip edge, proper ventilation and the right underlayment and flashing are required when a roof is replaced.

Who installs it

Choosing the cheaper option often costs more down the line. Our certified crews install to manufacturer specs, so you keep your warranty protection.

Insurance and financing

Storm damage may be covered by your homeowners insurance, and flexible financing can make the rest more affordable.

You pay for quality

Quality Roof Replacements

About financing

Insurance roofing

Storm Damage? Insurance May Pay for Your New Roof

Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, storm-related roof damage. We walk you through the process, from the first inspection to the final shingle.

Usually covered

Wind tearing off or creasing shingles

Hail leaving impact marks or bruises

Tree limbs or debris hitting the roof

Damage from the weight of snow or ice

Usually not covered

Old, worn-out shingles

Long-term leaks from neglect

Damage from a lack of maintenance or improper earlier repairs

How we help with your claim

Step 1: Free storm-damage inspection

We inspect your roof, gutters and attic for obvious and hidden damage, photograph everything and tell you honestly whether it looks cosmetic or claim-worthy.

Step 2: Decide whether to file

We help you think through your deductible and your coverage (ACV or RCV). If a claim makes sense, you call your insurance company to open it.

Step 3: We meet your adjuster

A Panda representative can be on the roof with the adjuster, pointing out the damage slope by slope, so nothing gets overlooked.

Step 4: Your new roof, and supplements

Once the claim is approved, the insurance scope is our baseline. If tear-off uncovers hidden damage, we help submit a supplement for the extra work.

Your roofing advocate, not a public adjuster. You stay in control of your claim and talk to your insurance company; we bring the roofing facts, photos and a detailed estimate, and sometimes the best advice is not to file at all.

Questions

Roofing Cost Questions, Answered

How much does a new roof cost?

Every roof is different. The price depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the material you choose, the condition of the decking underneath and the code items it needs. We’ll inspect your roof and give you a free, no-obligation estimate.

Is metal roofing worth the extra cost?

Traditional shingles are less expensive than metal roofing, but metal roofing is designed to last up to twice as long as traditional shingles.

Will my insurance pay for a new roof?

Often, when the damage is sudden and storm-related: wind, hail, falling limbs or the weight of snow and ice. Old age and wear and tear usually aren’t covered. Your deductible and your type of coverage affect what you pay.

What’s the difference between ACV and RCV coverage?

Actual cash value (ACV) pays for the roof’s depreciated value, so an older roof gets a smaller payout. Replacement cost value (RCV) is meant to pay for a new roof of similar kind and quality: often an ACV payment first, then the withheld depreciation once the roof is replaced. You pay the deductible either way.

What if my claim was denied or underpaid?

A denial or lowball offer doesn’t always have to be the final word. A second-opinion inspection, with a detailed photo report and a line-item estimate, can be used to ask your insurance company for a reinspection or a supplement.

Can I finance my new roof?

Yes. Spread the cost with flexible financing through Service Finance, LLC. Homeowners may qualify for delayed payments and even no-interest loans.

Testimonials

Chris Atkinson was my initial contact with the company! Very down to earth, honest and understanding. He showed a deep understanding of the process with the insurance company. I opted not to wait for the insurance review and from that point Panda/Chris moved speed with purpose to obtain supplies once I let them know what I wanted! He graciously handed me off to Jonathan and his team and the job was completed yesterday and I am beaming from the results. They went above and beyond to ensure colors from existing structures matched the roofing! My raised beds and plants were protected and the clean up impeccable. Overjoyed with the results! I was listened to and understood! We often don’t need roofing but when you do Panda is who I would recommend.

Tracey Duval

From the initial meetings with Cael and Mike to the actual replacement with Jim and his crew; my experience with Panda Exteriors was positive.... A+. I am very happy with the job. I will recommend this company.

Sam Stubbs

I contacted Panda Exteriors at the recommendation of friends who had recently had their roof replaced. My experience far surpassed my expectations. From the first visit to inspect damage I was seeing, the team at Panda was very helpful and walked me through every step explaining everything and helping me navigate the process. Installation day was amazing. The team arrived before 8 and the project manager was onsite and communicating with me throughout the day.

Jennifer Raymond

As a repeat customer of Panda Exteriors, I can confidently say they continue to impress. Our recent project to upgrade the flat roof on our historic home was an outstanding experience, largely due to our project manager, Eric Kibler. What truly set him apart was his unwavering commitment to communication and follow-through.
