Cost of Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are one of the most affordable roofing options in Michigan, with most homeowners paying between $4.50 and $7.50 per square foot installed depending on the type of shingle and roof complexity.
For a typical Michigan home, total roof replacement costs usually range from $7,000 to $13,000 for standard architectural shingles, while larger or more complex roofs can exceed $13,000+.
More specifically by type:
Architectural shingles: $5.00 – $7.00 per sq ft
Luxury shingles: $8.00 – $10.00 per sq ft
Factors like roof size, pitch, tear-off, labor, and upgrades (ice & water shield, ventilation) can all affect the final price. In Michigan, many contractors include extra protection for snow and ice, which can slightly increase upfront cost but improves long-term durability.
Overall, asphalt shingles offer one of the best balances of cost, durability, and performance for Michigan homes.
