First to decide is what type of roof you will be installing. Metal,
Asphalt, Fiberglass. As well there are several grades available in
most Asphalt and Fiberglass product. These effect the warranty that
will be offered. What type of system will you be installing? Prices
will vary from contractor to contractor so best to do is reasearch your
product first... then ALWAYS get THREE bids for the job. And make sure
your contractor and his employees are insured in any case someone falls
or is hurt on the job.

Tearing off the old one? The removal can cost you $500-2500 depending
on how much they rape you.

You'll need about 25 squares, at $50/sq for 30 year shingles that's $1250
plus $200 or so for other materials, the rest is labour. I've seen rates of
over $300/sq

You're the first one I've seen, which has been able to quote prices over
the internet.
I got out of the construction business 4 years ago. I was in roofing for
26+ years. I must say, you're a bit low for quoting "other materials", then
again, it shows how many corners can be cut.
A sq. ft. structure means absolutely.....zip. You estimate materials by
covered area (decking), this varies widely and is dependent on
pitch/style/dormers/valleys, just for starters.
For instance, you can have a 2000 sq ft colonial with 4/12 pitch, plus an
attached 2 car garage. I've done these with approx. 18 square. This is
normal gable style.
Or, you can have a ranch style 2000 sq.ft., 7/12 pitch, hip roof, have a
couple dormers (yes dormers on a ranch). And, run around 32 squares.
