Estimate roofing squares and a ballpark replacement cost for your Minnesota home. Pitch matters more than people think — this accounts for it.
Roofers price by the "square" — 100 square feet of roof surface. Your roof's surface area is bigger than your home's footprint because of pitch: a steep 10/12 roof over a 1,500 sq ft footprint has roughly a third more surface than a low-slope roof over the same house. Tear-off layers, waste factor for hips and valleys, and ice-and-water barrier coverage complete the picture.
