Metal Roof Cost Calculator.
This metal roof cost calculator gives an instant installed-cost range for a Florida roof. Type your address and the roof is measured from aerial imagery. Free, no signup.
Metal pricing starts from industry-reference figures, roughly $700 to $1,400 for every 100 sq ft put on the roof, and Florida jobs have not confirmed that range yet. The estimator supplies the other half of the math: how many squares your own roof covers.
How the metal roof calculator works.
You give it an address. The estimator handles the measuring.
- 01
Type your address
The estimator pins the house from what you type.
- 02
Aerial measurement
The roof is sized from aerial imagery, with no tape measure and no ladder.
- 03
Read the range
You see a budget range for installed cost on that roof, free and without handing over an email.
- 04
Ask for metal quotes
Partner Florida roofers take quote requests from the estimator when you want firm numbers.
Metal roof cost per square.
Industry-reference pricing, labeled as an estimate.
Put metal on a 2,000 sq ft roof and industry-reference pricing places the job near $14,000 to $28,000 installed.
The same roof in architectural shingle runs about $8,220 to $13,820, and that figure comes from Florida-sourced cost data.
Tile lands close to metal at about $700 to $1,500 per square. Treat both metal and tile numbers as estimates until a Florida roofer prices your house.
Metal roofs and the insurance clock.
A metal roof outlasts asphalt shingle in Florida, which typically wears out somewhere around 15 to 20 years.
Carriers apply the same age curve to metal, stretched out. Their questions about a metal roof tend to start in its thirties rather than its teens.
- A fresh permit date. The re-roof permit for the new metal roof becomes the age the roof report shows.
- Material on file. The report lists the roof material the records hold, which a carrier reads alongside the age.
Common questions.
Not yet. Florida-sourced cost data on the site covers asphalt and architectural shingle only, while metal, tile and slate use industry-reference figures marked as estimates. A quote from a partner Florida roofer gives you the real number for your house and the metal product you pick.
No. The estimator finds the roof by address and sizes it from aerial imagery, and nobody has to visit the house. Type the address and read the installed-cost range; there is no account to open and no email to give.
On industry-reference pricing the two overlap. Metal spans roughly $700 to $1,400 for each installed square and tile roughly $700 to $1,500, which on a 2,000 sq ft roof is about $14,000 to $28,000 against $14,000 to $30,000. Your roof shape and the products quoted decide which one comes in lower.
On this site, installed pricing means materials and labor, removing and hauling off the old roof, and the permit plus its inspection. Ask any metal roofer whether their quote covers the same list. A missing tear-off or permit line makes a quote look lower than it is.
Roof covering is one of seven features on Florida's wind mitigation form, OIR-B1-1802, along with deck attachment, roof-to-wall attachment and roof shape. A house built under the 2002 Florida Building Code or a newer one usually earns credits. A qualified inspector has to complete the form before your insurer applies any of them.
Run the estimator first to get a budget range for your measured roof. Then send a quote request through it to partner Florida roofers, and ask each one to price metal beside shingle for the same roof. That way you compare two materials on one roof rather than two different jobs.
