Is the solar calculator estimate a real quote?

No. It is a modeled estimate based on satellite roof data and the information you enter. A firm, signable price comes after a site survey confirms roof condition and electrical capacity.

Does the calculator include battery storage?

Yes, you can request a solar plus battery model. The tool sizes the battery for backup coverage and adjusts the array size so it can recharge the battery through a typical day.

What do I need on hand to use the calculator?

Your home address and a recent electric bill. Having 12 months of usage history ready, even as a screenshot from your utility portal, gets you a more accurate modeled system size.

Why did my modeled estimate change after the site survey?

Satellite imagery can be outdated and cannot see attic framing, panel capacity or roof condition. Shade from a tree that has grown in, a recent addition or an undersized main panel can shift the final design.

Q: How accurate is the cost range from the calculator?

Most confirmed designs land within about 10% of the modeled cost range. Roof complexity, panel count and any required electrical panel upgrade are the biggest variables.

Q: Can I use the calculator for a rental or investment property?

Yes, enter the property address you want modeled. Ownership structure and financing options for non owner occupied properties are best discussed on a call with a design specialist.

Enter your address and pick your roof type. In under a minute see a starting price for a new metal or tile roof, with optional solar panels and battery backup, for your Florida home.

Roof options: Metal, tile, solar; Standing seam, concrete tile and solar roof
Add-ons: Solar + battery; Optional panels or Powerwall backup
Next step: Site survey; Confirms measurements and roof condition

Pricing shown is typical and a starting point. Your exact quote is confirmed after a site survey and depends on roof condition, electrical service, equipment choices and local permitting.

How it works

What the Instant Roof Estimate Actually Does

The tool pulls a satellite view of your roof, measures the planes and pitch, and applies the roof type you choose to build a starting replacement price. You can keep it to roofing only, or add solar panels and a battery backup to see the combined installed cost.

Roof options include standing seam metal, concrete tile and integrated solar roof. Solar can be added as a separate array or skipped entirely. Battery backup uses a Tesla Powerwall or comparable unit sized for the loads you want covered during an outage.

This is a starting estimate, not a signed contract. A Coastal Energy site survey confirms exact measurements, attic framing, deck condition and main panel capacity before we finalize a firm proposal.

What matters here

Inputs That Change Your Roof Replacement Estimate

Every roof is different. These four inputs move the starting price the most, so picking the right options gets you a tighter estimate.

Roof Material

Standing seam metal and concrete tile are our standard offerings. Material cost, weight and labor differ, so the choice changes the starting price per square foot.

Roof Size and Complexity

Larger roofs use more material. Multiple planes, steep pitch, valleys, dormers and skylights add labor and flashing detail.

Solar and Battery Add-ons

Adding panels or a Powerwall increases the project scope and requires compatible roofing and electrical work. The estimate bundles these together.

Current Roof Condition

The tool estimates from satellite imagery. Rotten decking, secondary water damage or code-required upgrades are confirmed during the site survey.

Accuracy

Why the Price Can Shift After a Site Visit

Satellite imagery is usually one to three years old, so a recent re-roof, a new addition or a tree that has grown in can all change the layout. It also cannot see the condition of the roof deck, attic framing or main panel capacity.

That is why every instant roof estimate gets confirmed with an in person site survey before we write a contract. Most confirmed designs land within 10% of the starting range, but roof complexity or required deck repairs can move it further.

What roof types can I choose from?

You can select standing seam metal, concrete tile or an integrated solar roof. We install metal and tile roofs only; shingle replacement is not offered.

Why did my roof replacement estimate change after the site survey?

Satellite imagery can be outdated and cannot see deck rot, attic framing or main panel condition. A tree that has grown in, a recent addition or required code upgrades can also shift the final design.

Can I use the calculator for a rental or investment property?

Yes, enter the property address you want priced. Ownership structure, financing and tax treatment for non owner occupied properties are best discussed on a call with a design specialist.

Is the instant roof estimate a real quote?

No. It is a starting estimate based on satellite imagery and your selections. A firm, signable roof replacement quote comes after a site survey confirms roof size, condition and any electrical work needed.

Can I add solar panels or a battery to the estimate?

Yes. After selecting your roof material you can add solar panels and a Tesla Powerwall or comparable battery backup. The estimate shows the combined starting price.

How accurate is the cost range from the calculator?

Most confirmed roof replacement designs land within about 10% of the starting range. Roof complexity, material choice and any required deck or panel upgrades are the biggest variables.
