Average Costs, Labeled
None of the figures below is a quote. They come from two published estimators. This Old House reports Missouri-wide averages, and HomeBlue publishes St. Louis-area ranges built from a cost model rather than a survey of local bids. Use them to judge whether an Oakville, MO estimate is in a sensible range, not as a price you can hold anyone to.
| Cost row | Figure | Source (year) |
|---|---|---|
| Missouri re-roof, typical total | about $6,931 (common range $5,392–$17,837) | This Old House (2026) |
| Missouri asphalt, per sq ft | about $4.59 per sq ft | This Old House (2026) |
| St. Louis-area shingle roof, installed | $5–$8 per sq ft; a 2,000 sq ft roof lands near $9,600–$15,100 | HomeBlue cost model (2024) |
| Missouri metal, per sq ft | about $8.51 per sq ft | This Old House (2026) |
| St. Louis-area metal roof, installed | $8–$13 per sq ft | HomeBlue cost model (2024) |
The statewide total blends small and large homes from every corner of Missouri, so it sits lower than the St. Louis-area rows for a typical house here. Both sources price metal well above shingles per square foot. Keep in mind that these rates apply to roof surface, which is bigger than your floor plan once pitch and overhangs are added.
What Changes the Price
Two houses on the same street can get very different bids. These are the usual reasons.
In nearby Arnold, MO, the rules can change the size of the job itself. A 2025 city ordinance counts replacing more than 25 shingles as a roof replacement, and when part of a roof has to be replaced, the whole roof generally must be. Plan on a city permit there, and budget with that in mind.
Reading a Roofing Estimate
Comparing bids only works when they describe the same job. Ask every roofer for a written, itemized estimate, then look for these lines.
When insurance is paying for the job, Missouri law adds a requirement. The contract must come with a bold notice of your right to cancel after a written claim denial and a detachable cancellation form. The Missouri roofing rules page explains how that works.
Deductibles, Explained
Your deductible is the part of a covered claim you pay yourself. Under RSMo 407.725, a Missouri roofer may not advertise or promise to pay or rebate any of it. The ban also covers discounts, allowances and payments of any kind to anyone tied to the property. An offer to "take care of" your deductible is against Missouri law, and a good reason to look elsewhere.
How much a policy pays on an older roof depends on the carrier. Past a certain roof age, some settle at actual cash value instead of replacement cost, leaving a bigger share to you. The Missouri Department of Commerce and Insurance (DCI) offers a "Raising the Roof" tool that compares carriers' roof coverage. Missouri has no roof grant and no required discount for impact-resistant shingles.
On a claim, a roofer's role is to inspect, photograph and price the damage. You and your insurer settle the claim. If you want someone to represent you, that is the job of a public adjuster licensed under RSMo 325.015. DCI's consumer line is (800) 726-7390.
