Roof ROI Calculator

How It Works

A new roof is one of the top home improvements for resale value. According to Remodeling Magazine, asphalt shingle replacements recover about 60% of cost at resale, while metal roofs recover about 65%. The full ROI includes three components: direct home value increase, energy savings (reflective or better-insulated roofs can cut cooling costs 10-25%), and insurance premium reductions (new roofs, especially impact-resistant ones, can save $200-$1,000+ annually). If you are selling within 5 years, a new roof is almost always worth it — homes with new roofs sell faster and for closer to asking price. For personal enjoyment, factor in the peace of mind of no leaks and lower utility bills.
