What a metal roof costs in Covina
Metal costs roughly double asphalt and lasts roughly three times as long. Whether that is a good trade depends entirely on how long you intend to stay.

These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Covina is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $675 – $975 | $13,500 – $28,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Standing-seam metalThe long game. Costs double up front and outlives two shingle roofs. | $1,500 – $2,600 | $30,000 – $75,500 | 40 to 70 years |
What moves the price
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Warranty tier, which is really a question about who honours it in fifteen years
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- Access — a truck that cannot get near the house adds hours to every load
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
Locally
They also drive ember risk, which is why vent screening and Class A assemblies matter more here than the colour of the covering.
Ask any contractor quoting metal to show you a standing-seam job they finished several years ago. The edges will tell you what you need to know.

Questions about price
What if the decking is rotten underneath?
Expect a few sheets on most older roofs. Get the per-sheet rate in the contract. Open-ended decking charges are where a fixed price stops being fixed.
What does a new roof cost in Covina?
For a typical Covina home of about 25 squares, an architectural asphalt re-roof usually lands between $13,500 and $28,500. Tile, slate and standing-seam metal run well above that. The number moves on how many old layers come off, how much decking is soft underneath, and how easily a truck can get to the house.
