Before you start. The calculator turns floor space into roof surface. It divides your home's size by its stories to get a footprint, multiplies by a pitch factor (1.12 for a walkable roof, 1.30 for a steep one) and adds 10% for overhangs. It is built for pitched roofs only; a flat roof needs a roofer's own quote.
| Cost row | Figure | Source (year) |
|---|---|---|
| Minnesota 3-tab shingles, per sq ft | about $6.40 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
| Minnesota architectural shingles, per sq ft | about $7.00 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
| Minnesota premium shingles, per sq ft | about $8.70 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
| Minnesota exposed-fastener metal, per sq ft | about $9.40 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
| Minnesota standing-seam metal, per sq ft | about $14.55 | RoofObservations, 2026 |
The shingle range runs from the 3-tab row to the premium row, and the metal range from exposed-fastener panels to standing seam. These are statewide 2026 averages with tear-off included, and the guide says prices tend to run highest in the Twin Cities metro. Many Minneapolis homes have steep pre-war roofs, old layers to strip or worn board decking, which push a job toward the top.
