Bureau of Labor Statistics wage release for May 2025, occupation 47-2181 (roofers), across 15 metro areas.
2 of 24 material rows come from observed prices; the rest are modelled.
Metro-level pricing in 15 markets and written local guidance for 17 cities. Anywhere else falls back to national figures, and the confidence score says so.
Pitch multipliers, roof area and material quantities are arithmetic, not estimates.
About 65% of a typical re-roof is still priced from modelled rows, so every estimate is capped at a confidence of 60 until that changes. We would rather show you that than a confident-looking number we cannot stand behind. Sources and licences
Specific to 92127
What changes the price on this street
These are the things that differ here from San Diego as a whole. Everything else on the San Diego page still applies.
Uniform stock means tighter quote spreads
Because homes in a given tract are near-identical, contractors quote them accurately and competing quotes should cluster. A significant outlier here deserves an explanation.
Underlayment, not tile, is what is failing
This cohort is reaching the age where original underlayment fails. Expect lift-and-relay scopes and check the breakage allowance.
