My roof is 60' x 30' with a 15 degree pitch, how much

25 year. I've been asking questions at hardware stores.

What kind of terms can I expect from a roofer when I get a new
roof?

I could pay $1200.00 and make payments of $200.00 per month.
Would a contractor be likely to do that?

The wind and rain really messed things up in this area in the
last month.


Contractors don't do payments, bank do. They may hook you up with a
bank but you'd do better on your own with a Home Equity loan.

Price depends on your market, but I'd guess at $8000 give or take a
grand or two. Get the best shingle grade you can. Labor cost will be
the same and you get a better roof.


My last asphalt shingle roof was about $9000 on a 1700 sq ft house with
a pitched roof. That was with 30yr shingles.

The $1200 may cover the insurance premium.

They ain't cheap.
