Pitch drives both the roof area and the labor. Steep pitches (9/12 or more) slow the crew down, and low ones need extra underlayment care. Our Mississippi starting value is 5/12.

Budget $10,290 to $15,690 to strip and re-shingle a typical 2,060 sq. ft. single-story house in Biloxi, MS with standard asphalt. That covers a 5/12 roof of about 2,328 sq. ft. - 23.3 squares - with tear-off of the current shingles, new materials and the crew.

Divide it out and the installed rate is $539.05 per square; a square is the hundred square feet roofers quote by. The same roof in architectural 50-year shingles is $11,440 to $17,440. Metal begins with steel shingles at roughly $22,150.

Metro costs lift the price here by about $30 over the Mississippi figure ($10,270 to $15,660). Biloxi covers 6 ZIP codes in Harrison County; roofers based anywhere in that area usually quote these prices.

What a New Roof Costs in Biloxi, MS: Shingles, Metal, Membranes

Use this table two ways: to pick a material you can afford, and to spot a quote that sits far outside the normal band for Biloxi, MS.

Shingle rows use the same math as our roof replacement calculator; metal rows follow the metal roof calculator, and membranes follow the flat roof calculator. All of them carry the East South Central cost adjustment, which puts shingles and metal 9% below the U.S. average.

Price per Year of Roof

The real cost of a roof is price divided by the years it lasts. Hover a bar: metal costs more up front and less per year.

The Line Items Behind a Biloxi, MS Roofing Bid

Most of the spread between roofers comes from a handful of line items. For a 23.3-square roof at Biloxi, MS prices:

• Tear-off. About $3,010 of the quote pays to strip and dispose of one layer; if the roofer finds two layers, figure another $1,950 or so.
• Roof shape. When every side of the roof slopes down to a gutter (a hip design), add close to $1,240 over a two-sided gable. Plenty of dormers and valleys raise the add-on to about $2,100.
• Stories. Put this roof on a two-story house and the bid rises by about $890 for the extra climbing, staging and hauling.
• Skylight work. Budget about $330 for every skylight replaced or added during the re-roof.
• Bad wood. Damaged decking is the most common mid-job extra. Agree on a price per sheet before work starts.
• Flashing, vents and gutters. Some roofers include new flashing and vents; others bill them separately. Price new gutters on their own with the gutter cost calculator.
• Permit, dumpster, cleanup. Each town sets its own fees. Get them written into the price, along with a magnetic nail sweep of the yard.

Ask each bidder to fill in the same list: tear-off layers, underlayment, ice barrier, flashing, vents, decking rate, permit. Gaps in that list explain most low bids.

Weather, Wear and Your Mississippi Roof

A roof in Mississippi lives in Climate Region 5: about 93°F on a typical summer afternoon, about 56°F on a winter afternoon, and about 35°F on a winter night. Here is what that weather does to roofing in Mississippi, and how to spec around it.

Where Shingles Live Longest: the Climate Bell

Asphalt life peaks in the moderate middle (Region 3) and falls toward BOTH ends of the map above - cold regions destroy shingles with ice dams, hot ones bake them. Note the middle columns: shingles marketed as “lifetime” are good for about 25 real-world years at best - Mississippi is Region 5. Hover any column.

Is Metal Worth It in Biloxi, MS?

Metal costs more on day one and less for each year the roof lasts. Here is what each type would cost on a typical 2,060 sq. ft. single-story house in Biloxi, MS, and where each one makes sense.

• Standing seam: $29,520 to $45,000. The panels interlock at upright seams, and the clips let the metal grow and shrink with the weather. Budget about $22,050 over architectural shingles for this roof.
• Steel shingles: $22,150 to $33,760. Aluminum shingles: $24,490 to $37,330. Short interlocking pieces stamped to look like asphalt, shake or slate. A good pick for a busy roofline, or for owners who want metal without the barn look. Steel stands up to hail better; aluminum stands up to salt air better.
• Stone-coated steel: $30,140 to $45,950. A steel base under a granule finish. You get the tile look at a small part of the weight of real tile.
• Copper: custom quote only. Copper is a craft job, so we leave it out of the calculator and you will need a custom bid. It costs the most of any metal by a wide margin. A small copper accent over a bay window gives you the look without the whole-roof bill.

Salt air favors aluminum over plain steel. If you choose steel, read the coastal exclusions in the paint warranty. Metal pays off for long-term owners. If a move is likely within a few years, architectural shingles usually give better value. Price a specific panel, gauge and finish with the metal roof calculator.

When to Re-Roof in Biloxi, MS

The hottest weeks slow crews and soften shingles. Schedule for the cooler months; winter highs around 56°F keep work comfortable.

Storm chasers follow hail and wind. Hire a roofer with a local office and proof of insurance, and never sign over insurance proceeds on the spot.

Pricing Low-Slope Roofs in Biloxi, MS

Low-slope sections need a sealed membrane instead of shingles. Priced across the whole 2,060 sq. ft. footprint, a membrane roof in Biloxi, MS costs:

• EPDM rubber: $15,200 to $19,750. Synthetic rubber, usually black, laid in wide sheets with glued or taped seams. It shrugs off hail and hard frost and is easy to patch, so it suits garages, porches and roofs nobody sees.
• TPO, 60-mil: $13,090 to $17,000. The bright white membrane on many new commercial and home flat roofs. Hot-air welded seams turn the sheets into one skin. Pick it for a sunny roof over living space.
• PVC, 60-mil: $15,820 to $20,550. Also white and heat-welded, but tougher against grease, chemicals and standing water. It is the pick for roof decks, low spots that hold puddles, and anything near a kitchen exhaust.

TPO is the budget choice on this roof, and PVC sits at the top of the range. Tear-off of one existing layer and new polyiso board are part of each figure. A small section will price higher per square foot. The flat roof calculator handles other membranes and insulation levels.

Common Questions About Re-Roofing in Biloxi, MS

Is an old roof covered by my insurer?

Only for sudden damage such as wind, hail or a falling tree, never for plain wear. Certain policies cover an aging roof at its depreciated worth rather than full replacement. On a roof that costs $10,290 to $15,690 to replace, that gap is large, so check your settlement terms. Storm deductibles in Mississippi are often a percentage of coverage rather than a flat amount, so the out-of-pocket share can be large.

How do I estimate my roof size?

Take the footprint (2,060 sq. ft. here) and adjust for pitch (5/12): about 23.3 squares, or 2,328 sq. ft., counting overhang and waste. Get the square count on every quote.

Is a roofing permit required in Mississippi?

Rules vary by town, but a full re-roof usually needs a permit. Expect your roofer to obtain it and to schedule any inspection.

How many days will my roof replacement take?

For roughly 23.3 squares, a full crew usually finishes asphalt in a few days. Metal panels and roofs with many valleys take longer.
