How long does a typical residential roof replacement take?

As a frustrated business or homeowner, you may be wondering: "How long does a complete roof replacement project take?"

A general rule is that the larger your structure or building, the longer it takes to replace or fix the roof. However, this statement may not always prove true because it will also vary depending on the specific service you need and your roofing contractor.

Based on building materials, here's how long it generally takes to replace a standard residential roof: Asphalt: 1 to 4 days
Slate: 6 to 8 days
Wood: 2 to 10 days
Tile: 1 to 2 weeks
Metal: 1 to 2 weeks
Concrete: 8 to 10 days


While the building materials, weather conditions, accessibility, dimensions, and other factors can impact the timeline of a roofing project, a professional contractor can complete a typical residential roof replacement (3,000 square feet or less) in three to five days.
