If you’re a homeowner in Katy, Houston, Cypress, Fulshear or anywhere in Texas, one of the first questions you ask when you see storm damage is:
“How much does a new roof cost in Texas?”
The honest answer: it depends — but there are realistic ranges you can use to plan.
Typical Roofing Prices In Katy, Texas In 2026
Recent Texas-specific cost guides say most full roof replacements land somewhere between about $8,500 and $18,000+ for an average-sized asphalt shingle roof, depending on size, pitch, material, and complexity. Many statewide guides put the broader range around $5,000–$20,000+. River City Roofing+3Modernize+3transcendentroofing.com+3
For a typical 1-story or 2-story home in the Greater Houston area with architectural shingles, homeowners commonly see:
Smaller roofs (under ~20 squares / 2,000 sq ft): often $8,500–$13,000+
Average roofs (20–30 squares): often $12,000–$18,000+
Large or complex roofs: $18,000+
Again, those are ballpark ranges. The real number depends on several key factors.

What Drives Your Roof Price Up or Down?
Roof size (squares)
Roofing is priced per “square” (100 sq ft of roof area). The more squares, the higher the material and labor cost.Material choice
3-tab shingles (budget, less common now)
Architectural / dimensional shingles (most common)
Impact-resistant shingles (great for Texas hail)
Metal, tile, or specialty systems (higher cost, longer life)
Pitch & complexity
Steeper roofs, multiple stories, multiple valleys, dormers, and lots of penetrations (vents, chimneys, skylights) add labor time and safety considerations.Tear-off & decking repairs
If we have to remove multiple layers of old shingles or replace rotten decking, that adds cost — but it also protects your home long-term.Underlayment & ventilation upgrades
Code-compliant underlayment, ice & water shield in valleys, and proper ventilation may cost a bit more upfront but protect against Texas heat and storm damage.Insurance vs. cash job
With an insurance claim, you’re mainly handling your deductible and any upgrades beyond what the policy covers. With a cash roof, you’re covering the full cost but have more flexibility on options and timing.

FAQ from our customers
What is the average cost of a new roof in Texas?
For most Texas homes, a new asphalt shingle roof typically falls somewhere in the $8,500–$18,000+ range. It depends on size, pitch, material, and complexity. At All Out Roofing, we inspect your roof, measure it accurately, and give you a clear written estimate before any work begins.
Why do roof prices vary so much from house to house?
Your roof cost is driven by the size of the roof, the material you choose, how steep and complex the roof is, and whether decking or ventilation upgrades are needed. Two homes next to each other can have very different costs, which is why we always start with an in-person roof inspection.
Is it cheaper to pay cash or go through homeowners insurance?
For storm damage, using homeowners insurance often makes sense because you only pay your deductible and any upgrades. For older roofs without storm damage, a cash roof replacement can be faster and more flexible. All Out Roofing will walk you through both options so you can choose what fits your situation and budget.
