If you’re planning to replace your roof this year, one of the first questions you’ll probably ask is:
“How much does a new roof cost in 2026?”
The honest answer is that every roof is different. Factors like roof size, material selection, roof pitch, accessibility, and the condition of the existing decking all affect the final price.
At E&M Rooftop Solutions, we believe homeowners deserve transparent pricing before requesting an estimate. Below is a general pricing guide for homes in Tennessee and North Georgia.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Cost (2026)
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular roofing material because they offer an excellent balance of durability, appearance, and affordability.

Can Insurance Cover a Roof Replacement?
If your roof has been damaged by hail or wind, your homeowner’s insurance may cover part or all the replacement cost, depending on your policy and the cause of the damage.
A professional inspection can help determine whether storm damage is present and whether filing a claim may be appropriate.
