Most Toledo-area homeowners pay about $9,000 to $22,000 to replace an asphalt shingle roof in 2026. Where you land in that range depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the shingle line you choose, and what the crew finds once the old roof comes off.
Typical Toledo roof replacement costs
| Home footprint | Roof size (approx.) | Architectural shingles, installed |
|---|---|---|
| 1,200 sq ft | 15–16 squares | $8,600–$14,000 |
| 1,600 sq ft | about 21 squares | $11,400–$18,700 |
| 2,000 sq ft | about 26 squares | $14,300–$23,400 |
| 2,500 sq ft | about 32 squares | $17,800–$29,200 |
These ranges include tear-off of one layer and assume a medium-pitch roof. A “square” is 100 square feet of roof surface.
What changes the price
- Pitch and complexity. Steep roofs, dormers and valleys take longer and need more safety equipment.
- Material. 3-tab shingles run about $3.50–$5.50 per square foot installed, architectural shingles $4.50–$7.50, and metal $7.50–$14.
- Decking repairs. Rotted plywood is replaced per sheet. Ask for that price in writing before work starts.
- Ice and water shield. Northwest Ohio winters make it worth running along the eaves and in valleys.
- Permits and disposal. Most Toledo-area jobs need a permit, and dumpster fees are part of every quote.
How to get a fair quote
- Get three written quotes that list the shingle brand and line, underlayment, ventilation and flashing.
- Ask how long the company has worked in Lucas, Wood and Ottawa counties.
- Confirm liability insurance and workers’ comp.
- Compare workmanship warranties, not just price.
