Use this calculator to get a preliminary cost range for replacing a pitched, flat, or combination roof in the Albuquerque area. The estimate is based on roof type, existing roofing material, replacement system, home size, garage size, roof layers, access, rooftop equipment, and solar-panel conditions.The result is not a binding proposal, but it is designed to give homeowners a realistic planning range before scheduling an on-site roof evaluation.
This is a proprietary estimator developed by Tate Construction using our own roofing cost assumptions, project experience, and current pricing structure. Unlike generic online calculators, it is designed around the specific roof types, materials, and project conditions we commonly see in the Albuquerque area.
The estimate provided as a result of the use of this calculator is not a binding proposal, but it is designed to give homeowners a realistic planning range before scheduling an on-site roof evaluation.
This preliminary range is based on the information you provided, including the roof type, existing roofing material, replacement roofing system, home size, garage size, number of layers, access, roof levels, and rooftop equipment.
Material Assumptions
Asphalt shingle roof replacements are estimated using architectural shingles with synthetic underlayment and standard roofing accessories.
All pitched roofs are assumed to be either 4:12 or 5:12 pitch (most common pitch types)
Concrete or clay tile roof replacements assume the home already has, or can support, a tile roofing system. Structural conditions must be verified before final pricing.
Existing built-up roofing, modified bitumen, or rolled roofing systems are estimated as conversion to the selected replacement membrane system. Tate Construction may patch or repair these systems in kind when appropriate, but full replacements are estimated using modern membrane roofing systems.
TPO, PVC, and EPDM membrane roof replacements are estimated using 60-mil membrane systems with standard membrane flashing and accessory components.
Solar panel removal and reinstallation are included based on the option selected. Final pricing may require adjustment if the system uses an unusually large number of roof-penetrating stanchions, nonstandard mounting assemblies, or mounting conditions that require extensive individual flashing and waterproofing.
Most projects should remain within the displayed range. Final pricing would be revised only if the on-site evaluation identifies significant conditions that were not included in, or could not reasonably be determined from, the information entered into the estimator.
Solar-panel removal and reinstallation are included, including any electrical work required. Flashing of penetrations are EXCLUDED from pricing. Quantity of solar stanchions must be field counted, flashing of penetrations for solar stanchions are to be added at $50/ea.
This estimate is valid only when the existing roof is already concrete or clay tile. Due to the extreme weight of tile systems, conversion from a lighter roofing system to tile requires separate structural evaluation and is not included.
Your estimate assumes removal of the existing built-up roofing system and replacement with a new TPO roof. Tate Construction may patch existing built-up and modified-bitumen roofing but does not install these systems as complete new roof replacements.
The next step is an on-site roof evaluation. Tate Construction will verify the roof measurements and existing conditions, review material options with you, and provide a written proposal.
This calculator provides a preliminary planning range based on customer-provided information and standard assumptions. It is not a contract or binding proposal. Final pricing is confirmed after an on-site inspection and agreement on the final scope of work.
General contracting guided by decades of residential and commercial experience, disciplined project management, and a commitment to doing things the right way.
