Question about Roof Replacement in Raleigh, North Caroline

[Keith N.]

Hi,

I'm pretty sure a 10' x 40' (400 square foot) section of my roof overhang above my patio needs to be replaced.  A decent portion of the plywood beneath the overhang is rotted, so the shingle would need to be replaced and the plywood as well.

1)  I had one guy come out to my property and give me a quote to replace the roof.  He quoted me $1500 (full shingle replace and plywood replacements as he sees needed) and $2,200 (If I want ALL of the plywood replaced).  I know that 1000 sq/ft houses with simple roofs can get full replacements in Raleigh for around $4000, so this quote seems a little steep.  Does this seem like a fair price?

2) Can anyone recommend specific roofers in Raleigh, or atleast point me to where I should be calling to match quotes

.... i've gotte a few recommendations from friends and fellow BP members, however most are unreliable and do not answer the phone or call me back!

I don't know about your area.
Here is something to think about. All my buy and holds that need roofs get a metal roof. Due to now it is a life time roof.
Don't let these metal roofing guys tell you it cost more than shingles. IT COST THE SAME!!
