Metal Roof Cost Formula

Total Cost = (Roof Area × Material Cost per sq ft) + (Roof Area × Labor Cost per sq ft)

To calculate your metal roof cost, multiply the roof area by the material cost per square foot to get material cost. Then multiply roof area by labor cost per square foot. Add these together for your total estimate. Complexity and pitch factors may increase costs by 10-50%.
