Pomona prices
Pricing tile work in Pomona
The most common tile job is not a replacement at all — it is a lift-and-relay, where the same tile comes off, new underlayment goes down, and the tile goes back.

These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Pomona is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $650 – $975 | $12,500 – $28,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch. | $1,300 – $2,100 | $24,500 – $61,000 | 40 to 60 years |
| Clay barrel tileOften salvaged and re-laid over new underlayment rather than replaced. | $1,700 – $3,500 | $32,500 – $101,500 | 50 to 80 years |
What moves the price
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Warranty tier, which is really a question about who honours it in fifteen years
- Where you land in the season; crews discount when the phone is quiet
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
Locally
Dry offshore wind lifts material that damp coastal air had been holding down. Most wind losses here happen on a handful of nights a year.
Ask specifically whether the quote is for new tile or for relaying the existing tile. The difference is enormous and easy to miss.

Questions about price
Do I have to hire anyone?
Not at all. Plenty of people use this to find out what a job costs and then do nothing for a year. That is a perfectly reasonable outcome.
How many contractors will contact me?
Up to three. That is a hard cap, not a guideline. Three is enough to compare and few enough that your phone stays usable.
What should I do to prepare?
Move the cars out, take pictures off the top-floor walls, cover anything stored in the attic, and put pets somewhere else for the loud days. Expect nails in the driveway however careful the crew is — ask whether they run a magnet at the end.
Find out what it costs
No cost. We email you once when a provider near you can take it on.
