Roofing material prices vary 20–30% between suppliers for the exact same product. On a full reroof, that's $400–$800 left on the table. TruAries Sourcing compares shingles, underlayment, and accessories across 20+ suppliers before you place a single order.
Asphalt shingles dominate the residential market, but contractors increasingly source metal, tile, and synthetic materials for premium projects. Regardless of material type, comparing supplier pricing before buying a full square is essential — prices vary by 20–30% between suppliers for the same product.
Common roofing materials: 3-tab and architectural (dimensional) asphalt shingles, Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water shield, roofing felt, ridge cap shingles, drip edge flashing, roofing nails and coil nails, and pipe boots.
Typical price ranges: Architectural shingles (30-year) run $95–$150 per square (100 sq ft). Premium designer or impact-resistant shingles run $150–$250 per square. Synthetic underlayment costs $50–$90 per roll covering 10 squares. Metal drip edge runs $2–$5 per linear foot.
Buying tips for contractors: Buy full pallet quantities (typically 48–64 bundles) for the best per-bundle pricing. Coordinate shingle color with underlayment and ridge cap brand for warranty compliance. Always verify bundle-per-square count (typically 3 bundles/sq for architectural). Order 10–15% overage for hips, ridges, and waste.
