Frequently Asked Roofing Questions In Ankeny, Iowa

Labor Costs

How much does roofing labor cost in Ankeny, Iowa compared to nearby areas? In Ankeny, labor for typical asphalt roofing runs about $2.25 to $4.00 per sq ft, roughly $225 to $400 per 100 sq ft.

Ankeny, Iowa gets roughly 36 inches of precipitation and about 30 to 35 inches of snow annually, plus average winds near 10 to 12 mph with occasional severe gusts over 50 mph, and strong summer sun and UV, causing freeze thaw cycles, ice dams, snow load stress, wind uplift and accelerated shingle UV degradation, shortening roof lifespan if not maintained.
What is the most common cause of roof damage in Ankeny, Iowa? In Ankeny, north of Des Moines, the most common roof damage comes from spring and summer hail and high winds, as central Iowa severe thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes bruise shingles and blow off edges, while winter ice dams cause secondary leaks.

In Ankeny, near Des Moines, the best time to replace a roof is late September to early October, when temperatures are mild, humidity drops and tornado and hail season has eased and contractors have more availability.

Rapid suburban growth around Ankeny and many asphalt shingle roofs make claims more frequent than in nearby rural areas, homeowners typically see increased claim risk every few years.
