Before you start. The calculator divides your living space by the number of stories to get the home's footprint. It multiplies that by a pitch factor, since a steep roof has more surface than a low one, and by 1.10 to allow for overhangs. That roof area is then priced at an installed rate per square foot for shingles or metal, set from the cost rows below.
| Cost row | Figure | Source (year) |
|---|---|---|
| Davenport asphalt shingles, installed, per sq ft | about $4–$7 | HomeBlue, 2024 |
| Iowa re-roof, average | about $6,160 (range $4,794–$15,779) | This Old House, 2026 |
| Iowa architectural shingles, per sq ft | about $5.95 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
| Iowa exposed-fastener steel, per sq ft | about $8.00 | RoofObservations, 2026 |

After the Result
A range helps you plan, but a real price needs someone on a ladder. A few things can move it: a roof with two layers already usually has to be torn off, Davenport's code calls for an ice barrier underlayment, and outside city limits in unincorporated Scott County, Iowa a residential roof permit is $50.
