Architectural shingles run about $528 to $770 per square installed in Orlando, which puts a typical 25-square roof at roughly $13,200 to $19,250. That is 10% above the Florida baseline. 2026 planning estimates, not quotes.
Roof replacement in Orlando, Florida runs roughly 10% above the Florida state baseline in 2026, driven by local labor rates, permit fees, and code requirements. FBC wind zone; secondary water barrier required. Use this guide to size a per-square budget for asphalt shingles, standing-seam metal, or concrete/clay tile on a typical Orlando home, then refine your estimate with our project estimator.
Orlando runs about 10% above the Florida state baseline, so the state figures are scaled by 1.10 to give the local ranges below.
| Material | Per square installed | 20 squares | 25 squares | 30 squares |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingles | $528 – $770 | $10,560 – $15,400 | $13,200 – $19,250 | $15,840 – $23,100 |
| Standing-seam metal | $1,100 – $1,705 | $22,000 – $34,100 | $27,500 – $42,625 | $33,000 – $51,150 |
| Concrete or clay tile | $1,045 – $1,650 | $20,900 – $33,000 | $26,125 – $41,250 | $31,350 – $49,500 |
Figures are per square — 100 square feet of finished roof — for installed work including tear-off, and are 2026 planning estimates rather than quoted prices. Squares shown allow for a typical 6/12 pitch and 10% waste. Always get three written quotes before committing.
| Roof size | Squares | Asphalt shingle range |
|---|---|---|
| 1,200 sq ft footprint | 15 | $7,920 – $11,550 |
| 1,500 sq ft footprint | 18 | $9,504 – $13,860 |
| 2,000 sq ft footprint | 25 | $13,200 – $19,250 |
| 2,500 sq ft footprint | 31 | $16,368 – $23,870 |
| 3,000 sq ft footprint | 37 | $19,536 – $28,490 |
The Florida state permit average is around $350; large metros frequently sit above that and may add inspection or scaffolding requirements of their own.
A typical 25-square asphalt shingle roof in Orlando works out at roughly $13,200 – $19,250 installed. That is the Florida baseline scaled by the local factor of 1.10.
FBC wind zone; secondary water barrier required. Metro labour rates, permit and inspection requirements, and disposal fees all differ from the state average, which is what the 1.10 multiplier represents.
In almost every jurisdiction yes, and a licensed contractor will pull it as part of the job. Replacing a roof without one can cause problems at resale and can give an insurer grounds to dispute a later claim.
Three, from licensed and insured local contractors, each written against the same scope. Ask specifically whether flashing, drip edge, underlayment, ridge vent and decking replacement are included, because that is where quotes usually differ.
