## Price

$8,000-$34,000 full roof replacement, installed. reconciles Everett-specific aggregator data ($8,000-$25,000 broad range, $14,700-$15,304 average for a 2,000 sq ft home) against WA-wide contractor-published ranges (Valentine Roofing, $15,600-$34,000 for composite shingle) — both narrower and more defensible than treating either figure alone as the market.

## What's included

- On-site inspection and a written price before any work starts, broken out by material option
- Full tear-off to the deck — the only way to find and fix wind- or age-driven deck damage hiding under old roofing
- Deck inspection and replacement of any rotten or delaminated sheathing, priced as its own line, more common on Everett's older housing stock
- High-wind-rated synthetic underlayment across the field, ice-and-water membrane at eaves and valleys
- New flashing, drip edge, and step/counter flashing at every penetration, chimney, and wall tie-in — never reused off the old roof
- Material and fastening matched to Snohomish County's 110 mph design wind speed, with an added design-review check for properties inside the Rucker-Grand, Norton-Grand, or Riverside Historic Overlay Zones
- A permit pulled through Everett's Online Permitting Portal when the job requires one — not every like-for-like re-roof does, and we tell you honestly which situation applies before we quote the job
- Full site cleanup, magnet sweep for dropped fasteners, and haul-away of the old roofing

## Process

01. **Free on-site inspection** - We walk the roof, check the deck from the attic side where we can, count penetrations and valleys, and note the property's exposure to Port Gardner/Possession Sound wind. You get a written price before we leave.
02. **Permit check and material order** - We confirm whether your re-roof needs a permit through Everett's Online Permitting Portal — a like-for-like re-roof of two layers or fewer typically doesn't — and check whether the property sits in a Historic Overlay Zone requiring design review, before ordering material.
03. **Tear-off and install** - Deck repaired where wind or age has damaged it, underlayment and flashing installed to spec, then the new roof installed to the manufacturer's wind-uplift requirements for this waterfront exposure.
04. **Inspection and walkthrough** - Final inspection, magnet sweep for fasteners, gutters and landscaping checked for debris, and we walk the finished roof with you before we leave.

## When it's needed

- Multiple roof leaks, or a leak that keeps returning after repair
- Wind-lifted or missing shingles after a Puget Sound windstorm
- Roof is at or past its material's expected service life — 25-30 years rated for architectural shingle, but realistic Puget Sound performance often runs closer to 17 years
- Visible sagging, soft spots, or deck damage found during an inspection, common on pre-1939 Riverside homes
- Storm or wind damage covering more than a small, isolated area
- Preparing to sell and a pre-listing inspection flagged the roof

## FAQ

**How long does a roof replacement take in Everett?**

Most single-family homes take two to four days once material is on-site, weather permitting — we plan around windstorm-season forecasts (Nov-Feb) more carefully than a calmer season would require. Larger or steeply-pitched roofs, or ones needing significant deck repair, run longer. We give you a specific estimate at the inspection.

**What material should I choose?**

It depends on your budget, your home's age and style, and whether your property sits in a Historic Overlay Zone (Rucker-Grand, Norton-Grand, Riverside), where design review can affect material choice. Asphalt shingle is the most common and most affordable; cedar shake suits the century-old homes common in Riverside, Bayside, and North Everett; metal trades a higher upfront cost for strong wind-uplift resistance, though salt-air exposure near the waterfront affects coating-system choice. See our material comparison guides for the full picture.

**Do you handle roofs in Everett's historic overlay zones?**

Yes — we check whether a property sits in the Rucker-Grand, Norton-Grand, or Riverside Historic Overlay Zone before ordering material, since roof work there can require design review on top of the standard building permit. We handle that process as part of the job.
