Run a 40.00 roofr report.
Take the roof square footage and divide by 100 - that’s the size of the roof in squares.
Reliable estimate is about 2000.00 a square.
Caveat emptor with hiring.
Should be hand nailed with stainless steel nails, should be tapersawn pressure treated shingles, etc.
Don’t hire the wrong guy.
And I’m not your guy - I don’t work in the DMV.

I don't have any idea, but I imagine anyone who does would need to know the area of the roof.

What is the existing roof made out of?

I am a first time home buyer and the existing roof looks worn. I'd prefer to replace it with cedar shakes for aesthetic reasons.
