How Much Does a New Roof Cost in Courtenay?
Courtenay Roofers quotes a new roof in Courtenay at $8,000 to $20,000 for asphalt shingles, $18,000 to $45,000 or more for metal, and $28,000 to $60,000 for cedar. We charge $300 to $4,000 for repairs and $150 to $400 for an inspection. What you pay comes down to your roof's size and pitch and how many old layers we take off, anywhere in the Comox Valley.

A roof replacement is the price to tear off the old roof and install a new one. Roof size and pitch drive most of the price, along with the material you choose, how many old layers we remove, and any deck repair the tear-off turns up.
For a full breakdown of what we do in a re-roof, see roof replacement.
| Material | Typical cost | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|
| Asphalt shingles | $8,000 – $20,000 | 15–30 yrs |
| Metal (standing seam / panel) | $18,000 – $45,000+ | 40–70 yrs |
| Cedar shingles | $28,000 – $60,000 | 25–50 yrs |
What drives the price
Size and pitch come first, because a big, steep roof takes more material, more time, and more safety setup from us than a small bungalow does. Material comes next: asphalt shingles are the affordable standard, metal costs more but lasts decades longer, and cedar is a premium look. If we strip extra old layers or find rotted deck during tear-off, that adds to your total.
Shingle vs. metal over time
A shingle roof costs you $8,000 to $20,000 and lasts 15 to 30 years. A metal roof costs $18,000 to $45,000 and lasts 40 to 70. On the wet, moss-prone Comox Valley coast, where shingles often fail early, more of the homeowners we quote find metal's higher upfront cost pays off by skipping the next re-roof or two.
| Service | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| Roof repair (leak, flashing, shingle) | $300 – $1,500 |
| Larger / storm repair | $1,500 – $4,000+ |
| Roof inspection | $150 – $400 |
| Moss removal / roof cleaning | $300 – $800 |
These are typical Comox Valley ranges for planning, not quotes. Roof size, pitch, access, layers to strip, and any hidden deck rot move the final price. We give you an exact figure after an on-site assessment.
How to get an accurate price
We only give you a reliable price after we've been up on the roof and seen its size, pitch, layers, and condition. Our written quote separates the tear-off, the deck allowance, the material, the flashing, and the cleanup, so you can see what happens to your price if a second layer or a soft deck turns up.
