I have a 20 sq roof 12/4 pitch with 2 20ft valleys and my own supply of 3 tab shingles,nails etc. I received a quote of $2000 cash to tear off the 1 layer and apply the new shingles (they are on the ground lol) and a layer of #15 tar paper, no drip edges. The roofer estimates it will take 2 guys 2 days or approx 40 person hours to complete. This works out to $50 an hour. Does this seem reasonable? Seems like a steal for the roofer considering his helper is probably getting $15 an hour and we are in the dead of winter.
