What is the cost of installing roofing shingles?

Answer by  sammyrags (82)

Depending on whether you plan to have the original shingles removed first will have a big effect on the cost of installing new shingles. The average cost is about $250 to $300 for roof shingles installed after removal of existing shingles. It should be about $100 less if you have the new shingles installed over the existing shingles.

The roofing shingles cost anywhere from fifty dollars to a couple hundred dollars depending on the material and labor. Once the roofing contractor figures out the material of the roofing and the dimensions, he can present the customer with an accurate estimate. Roughly speaking, roofing shingles can cost few hundred dollars.
