For GAF architecture shingles I pay $87/SQ I use a formula of $40/SQ for my ice water shield, drip, flashing etc. and my cost for labor is $100/SQ So for your 1550 sq ft home it would be $3632 not including a dumpster @ $550 $4182 - $144 cheaper for 3-tabAnd for the 9SQ home is would cost me $2043 plus garbage.

The guy who delivered ice to my house, he doesn't have a job because we have refrigerators.
