When homeowners start getting estimates for roofing, siding, or gutters, one of the biggest questions is simple:

“What is a fair price?”

At 4th Perry LLC, we believe homeowners deserve straight answers. A fair retail price is not always the cheapest number, and it is not always the highest number either. A fair price should include proper materials, skilled labor, cleanup, warranty, code compliance, and a contractor who will stand behind the job.

Roof Replacement Pricing

For a standard asphalt shingle roof, a fair retail price in Ohio often falls around $500 to $700 per roofing square, depending on pitch, layers, access, decking condition, flashing, ventilation, and material choice. One roofing square equals 100 square feet.

For many Ohio homes, current 2026 roof replacement pricing commonly falls in the range of $4.05 to $6.30 per square foot installed for architectural asphalt shingles, with added cost for steep roofs, multiple stories, difficult access, or bad decking.  

At 4th Perry LLC, our roof replacement pricing usually includes:

• Full tear-off and cleanup
• Ice and water guard
• Synthetic underlayment
• New drip edge
• New pipe boots
• New flashing as needed
• Ridge vent system
• Starter shingles
• Hip and ridge shingles
• Code compliance
• Warranty-backed installation

A low roof price may look good upfront, but if it leaves out flashing, ventilation, decking repairs, or proper cleanup, it can cost the homeowner more later.

Vinyl Siding Pricing

Vinyl siding pricing depends heavily on the house layout, number of corners, windows, doors, gables, tear-off, house wrap, trim work, and siding profile.

A fair retail price for vinyl siding installation is commonly around $500 to $800 per square, with more detailed homes costing more. A siding square also equals 100 square feet.

National siding cost guides show vinyl siding can average around $762 per square installed, with traditional lap siding often being lower and specialty profiles like Dutch lap, vertical siding, shake, or board and batten costing more.  

At 4th Perry LLC, a proper siding project should include:

• Vinyl siding installation
• House wrap when required
• Starter strip
• J-channel
• Outside corners
• Window and door trim details
• Proper fastening
• Cleanup
• Manufacturer-backed materials

Siding is not just about covering a wall. It is about protecting the structure, managing water, and giving the property a clean finished look.

Gutter Pricing

For aluminum gutters, fair retail pricing usually runs around $10 to $18 per linear foot, depending on whether the system is 5-inch or 6-inch, the number of downspouts, the height of the home, color, access, and whether old gutters need removed.

Current 2026 gutter pricing guides show aluminum gutters commonly around $4 to $12 per linear foot installed, with higher prices for heavy-gauge aluminum, difficult homes, taller properties, custom colors, or larger systems.  

A proper gutter estimate should include:

• Seamless aluminum gutters
• Downspouts
• Elbows
• Hangers
• End caps
• Miters
• Removal of old gutters when needed
• Cleanup
• Proper slope for drainage

Cheap gutters can sag, leak at corners, overflow, or pull away from the fascia. Good gutters protect the roof edge, siding, foundation, landscaping, and basement.

Cheap Price vs. Fair Price

The cheapest estimate is not always the best deal.

A fair contractor price should cover:

• Labor
• Materials
• Dump fees
• Insurance
• Warranty
• Job supervision
• Cleanup
• Code compliance
• Company overhead
• Long-term service after the job

A contractor who is priced too cheap may be cutting corners somewhere. That could mean no insurance, cheap materials, poor ventilation, no flashing replacement, no warranty, or rushed labor.
