What's different in Texas
- Hail is the main reason Texas roofs get replaced. Class 4 impact-resistant shingles cost more up front but many insurers discount premiums for them.
- Summer heat shortens crew hours, so scheduling in spring and fall is easier and sometimes cheaper.
- After large hail events, out-of-town contractors flood in. Check for a local address and references before signing.
How the Texas figure is calculated
Labor is roughly 55% of an installed roof replacement job. The median wage for roofers in Texas is $46,030 a year, against a national median of $55,440 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025). We apply that 17% below-national difference to the labor share only, which moves the whole installed range by about 9% down. Materials are priced nationally, since they vary far less by state than labor does. Prices inside Texas still vary by metro area and by contractor. Read the full method.
