A standard asphalt shingle roof replacement in Sioux Falls typically costs between $8,000 and $18,000 depending on your home size, roof pitch, and material choice.
For a typical 2,000 square foot home in Sioux Falls, expect to pay somewhere between $8,000 and $18,000 for a full asphalt shingle roof replacement in 2026. That includes tearing off the old roof, hauling away debris, installing new underlayment and shingles, flashing work, and the city permit. Smaller homes with simpler rooflines land closer to the lower end, while larger homes with steep pitches or multiple roof planes cost more.
Architectural shingles are the most common choice around here and run about $9,500 to $16,800 for a 2,000 square foot roof. If you go with standing seam metal, which holds up better against our hail, you are looking at $19,000 to $38,000 for the same size home. Metal costs more up front but can last 40 to 70 years compared to 25 to 30 for asphalt.
These are typical ranges you will see from local contractors. Your actual price depends on your specific roof and the company you hire. Get at least three written estimates so you can compare what is included.
Roof size is the biggest factor. Contractors price by the square, which is 100 square feet of roof surface. A simple ranch home might have 15 to 20 squares, while a two story with valleys and dormers could be 30 squares or more. Steeper roofs cost more because they are slower and require more safety equipment.
Material choice matters. Basic three tab shingles are cheapest but only last 15 to 20 years in our climate. Most people go with architectural shingles for better wind and hail resistance. Some homeowners in high hail areas like the west side of Sioux Falls choose Class 4 impact rated shingles, which cost about $2,000 more on an average roof but can lower your insurance premium.
If your roof decking is damaged from leaks or ice dams, that adds to the cost. Replacing bad plywood runs about $3 to $5 per square foot. The permit fee from the City of Sioux Falls Building Services starts at $40 and goes up based on project cost. Most contractors include the permit in their bid.
Sioux Falls gets hit hard by weather. We average about 27 to 28 inches of rain and 38 to 45 inches of snow per year. More important for roofs, we see regular severe thunderstorms with large hail and high winds. The May 2022 storms dropped golf ball to softball sized hail across the metro, and September 2026 brought baseball sized hail and winds over 70 mph to parts of the area.
Storm damage is the main reason people replace roofs around here. The Big Sioux River corridor channels severe weather right through town almost every spring and summer. If a storm just came through your neighborhood, get your roof inspected even if you do not see obvious damage. Hail can bruise shingles and shorten their life without leaving visible dents right away.
Insurance covers most storm damage. If your roof is damaged by hail or wind, you typically pay only your deductible and insurance covers the rest. Do not file a claim until you have a contractor inspect and confirm you have compensable damage.
Get three estimates from licensed contractors. The City of Sioux Falls requires contractors to have a Residential Roofing and Repair Contractor License, carry at least $300,000 in liability insurance, and post a $20,000 bond. You can verify a contractor is licensed by calling Building Services at 605-367-8672.
Ask what is included. A complete bid should cover tear off, disposal, new underlayment, ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, all flashing, ridge vents, the permit, and final inspection. If one bid is much lower than the others, find out what is missing.
Plan for the unexpected. About one in four roof replacements uncovers some rotten decking that needs replacing once the old shingles come off. Ask up front what the contractor charges per sheet for decking replacement so there are no surprises. Good contractors will come down after tear off and show you any problems before they cover it back up.
