A new roof in Dallas-Fort Worth typically costs between $8,000 and $25,000 for an average-sized home, with most DFW homeowners paying $12,000 to $18,000 for quality architectural shingles. At Ranger Roofing & Construction, we provide transparent pricing and FREE detailed estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for—no hidden costs, no surprises. If your roof needs replacement due to storm damage, your homeowners insurance may cover most or all of the cost minus your deductible.
What Factors Affect Roof Replacement Cost in the DFW Area?
When Jordan HeLal and the Ranger Roofing & Construction team provide your free estimate, we evaluate several factors that determine your specific cost:
Roof Size and Square Footage: Roofing is priced by the “square” (100 square feet of roof area). A typical Denton County home ranges from 20-35 squares. Our FREE inspections include precise measurements so your quote reflects your actual roof—not estimates.
Roof Pitch and Complexity: Steeper roofs require additional safety measures and labor. Homes with multiple valleys, dormers, skylights, and chimneys—common in Flower Mound, Highland Village, and Argyle—cost more than simple gable designs. Ranger Roofing handles all complexity levels, from straightforward ranch homes to intricate custom builds.
Material Selection: Material choice significantly impacts both cost and longevity. Here’s what DFW homeowners typically invest:
| Material Type | Cost Range | Expected Lifespan | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Tab Asphalt | $150-250/square | 15-20 years | Budget-conscious, rental properties |
| Architectural Shingles | $250-400/square | 25-30 years | Most DFW homes (our most popular) |
| Impact-Resistant Shingles | $300-500/square | 30+ years | Hail-prone areas, insurance savings |
| Metal Roofing | $500-1,000/square | 40-70 years | Long-term investment, modern aesthetics |
Ranger Roofing & Construction works with premium manufacturers and can recommend the best material for your budget, aesthetic preferences, and North Texas weather conditions.
Deck and Underlayment Condition: During our inspection, we check your roof deck (the plywood beneath your shingles) for water damage or rot. If replacement is needed, we’ll identify it upfront—never as a surprise mid-project. Quality synthetic underlayment costs more than felt paper but performs far better in Texas heat and provides superior protection.
What Should a DFW Roof Replacement Actually Cost by Home Size?
Based on architectural shingles with standard complexity, here are realistic ranges for the Dallas-Fort Worth market:
| Home Size | Typical Roof Size | Investment Range |
|---|---|---|
| 1,200 sq ft | 15-18 squares | $7,500 – $11,000 |
| 1,800 sq ft | 20-25 squares | $10,000 – $15,000 |
| 2,400 sq ft | 28-32 squares | $14,000 – $20,000 |
| 3,000 sq ft | 35-40 squares | $17,500 – $25,000 |
| 3,500+ sq ft | 42+ squares | $21,000 – $32,000+ |
These ranges reflect the quality workmanship and materials Ranger Roofing & Construction installs on every project. As one BBB reviewer said: “Ranger Roofing does an amazing job and I highly recommend their services!”
Will My Insurance Cover Roof Replacement Costs?
This is where Ranger Roofing & Construction truly stands apart. If your roof needs replacement due to storm damage—hail, wind, fallen trees—your homeowners insurance typically covers the cost minus your deductible.
As one of our customers, Rechner A., shared in their BBB review: “We wouldn’t have a new roof without Ranger Roofing’s help through the claims process, their knowledge here is key. Once they completed those hours of work with the claim, the roof was done in a day.”
Another customer, Debbie S., wrote: “Ranger Roofing is phenomenal! They worked with us throughout all the insurance requirements, did a great job on the roof and cleaned up perfectly.”

Understanding Your Texas Wind/Hail Deductible
Many Texas homeowners are surprised to learn their wind and hail deductible differs from their standard deductible. Most DFW policies use percentage-based deductibles of 1-5% of your dwelling coverage:
Example Calculation:
- Home insured for: $400,000
- Wind/hail deductible: 2%
- Your out-of-pocket: $8,000 before insurance pays
Before filing a claim, review your policy or ask Ranger Roofing & Construction to help you understand your coverage. Sometimes the damage exceeds your deductible significantly, making a claim worthwhile. Other times, it may be close—and we’ll give you honest guidance either way.
Are Impact-Resistant Shingles Worth the Investment in North Texas?
Given that DFW experienced hailstorms causing $7-10 billion in damages in recent years, impact-resistant shingles deserve serious consideration:
The Financial Case for IR Shingles:
- Insurance Discounts: Many Texas insurers offer 5-15% premium reductions for Class 3 or Class 4 impact-resistant shingles
- Reduced Claim Frequency: Better resistance means fewer deductibles paid over time
- Longer Warranties: Premium IR shingles often include 30-50 year coverage
- Peace of Mind: DFW averages multiple significant hail events annually
Understanding Impact Ratings:
- Class 3: Withstands 1.75″ steel ball impact (golf ball-sized hail)
- Class 4: Withstands 2″ steel ball impact (larger than golf ball)
The 10-20% premium for impact-resistant shingles typically pays for itself within 5-10 years through insurance savings alone—not counting avoided repair costs and deductibles.
Ranger Roofing & Construction can help you calculate whether IR shingles make sense for your specific situation and insurance policy.

With 8+ years serving Denton County and surrounding areas, Ranger Roofing & Construction has built our reputation on transparency and integrity. Here’s how to ensure you’re getting fair value:
