A roofing contractor quoted me a price of $1.75 sq foot to install
timberline 30 shingles or Certain Teed woodscape 30 shingles, rounded
to $4,000. Is that a fair price? Assuming that is a fair price, does
it make sense to upgrade to a better shingle say certain teed landmark
50 shingles? Is the same amount of labor required to install a 50 year
shingle as compared to a 30 year shingle? Thanks in advance for your
advise.

Price sounds reasonable. Upgrading to a 50 year would have a slight labor
upgrade. Most 30 year are 4 bundles per square, the 40 and 50 year are 3
bundles so a little more handling labor is needed. Worth it? If you care
about the long term, certainly. If you are moving out in two years,
probably not.
