Tile and slate prices in Artesia, CA
Tile pricing has two parts that get confused: the tile itself, which lasts decades, and the underlayment beneath it, which does not.

These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Artesia is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Covering | Per square | Typical whole roof | Expected life |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural asphalt shingleThe default choice on most American homes, and usually the right one. | $650 – $975 | $13,000 – $29,500 | 25 to 30 years |
| Concrete tileThe tile lasts far longer than the underlayment beneath it, which is the catch. | $1,200 – $2,000 | $24,000 – $60,000 | 40 to 60 years |
| Clay barrel tileOften salvaged and re-laid over new underlayment rather than replaced. | $1,600 – $3,300 | $32,000 – $99,000 | 50 to 80 years |
What moves the price
- Warranty tier, which is really a question about who honours it in fifteen years
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Ventilation work, if the old roof was cooking itself from underneath
- Where you land in the season; crews discount when the phone is quiet
- How much decking turns out to be soft once the covering is stripped
Locally
These winds are not constant, which is the problem. A roof gets nine quiet months and then one night at fifty miles an hour, and whatever was marginal goes.
Expect a small percentage of breakage on any tile job. An honest quote says so and prices the replacements.

Questions about price
How long does a re-roof take?
A straightforward asphalt roof on an average house is one to three days. Tile, slate and complex rooflines take longer, and weather stops work more often than anything else.
What does a new roof cost in Artesia?
Most quotes here for a standard asphalt replacement come in around $13,000 to $29,500. That assumes one layer to remove and sound decking. Every quote you get should say in writing what happens if the decking is not sound.
How long should a roof last here?
An architectural asphalt roof is rated for twenty-five to thirty years and, in this climate, tends to land at the lower end of that. Tile and metal go much further, provided what is underneath them is maintained.
