Pricing tile work in Industry
The most common tile job is not a replacement at all — it is a lift-and-relay, where the same tile comes off, new underlayment goes down, and the tile goes back.
Or call (626) 990-2809Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Industry and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Industry is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $625 – $950 | $12,500 – $32,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch. | $1,200 – $2,000 | $24,000 – $68,000 | 40 to 60 years |
| Clay barrel tileOften salvaged and re-laid over new underlayment rather than replaced. | $1,600 – $3,100 | $32,000 – $105,500 | 50 to 80 years |
What moves the price
- The number of penetrations: chimneys, skylights, vents, solar mounts
- Permit and inspection fees, which vary more between towns than people expect
- Warranty tier, which is really a question about who honours it in fifteen years
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- Whether the valleys, drip edge and step flashing are being replaced or reused
Locally
Dry offshore wind lifts material that damp coastal air had been holding down. Most wind losses here happen on a handful of nights a year.
Expect a small percentage of breakage on any tile job. An honest quote says so and prices the replacements.

Questions about price
Are gutters included in a re-roof?
Normally a separate line. It is the one add-on that genuinely costs less when done at the same time.
What happens to my information?
It goes to a maximum of three roofing contractors working in Industry, and to nobody else. We do not sell it as a mailing list and we do not post it anywhere public. Our privacy policy sets out exactly what is shared.
It is leaking right now. What do I do?
Move what you can out of the way, put a bucket under it, and if there is a bulge in the ceiling put a small hole at its lowest point to let the water out in one place rather than bringing the whole panel down. Then mark your request as an emergency — those go out first.
