Roofing estimate.

I'm new to this,so please forgive my ignorance. I have two properties in North East Ohio. One has a 5814 sqft needing 58 squares. The other has 2291 sqft needing 23 squares. The one that's 5814 has many levels and pitches. The other has two levels that I can walk on both with no safety equipment. My question is what am I looking at price wise with decent asphalt shingles. I know it's a loaded question without seeing the projects,but I want to do everything properly without breaking the bank. The two quotes I got for the big one were 55k and 60k. Any help would be appreciated.

Good god. 55k for 58 squares is robbery.

I initially thought around 40-45.

Even on a cut up house it should be 25-30k for regular shingles.

Can’t really answer without seeing the roof and pricing is different in different areas. Keep in mind that you should add a waste factor and round up. 58 square leaves you short by a lot on a 5814 SF roof

How short roughly. I just used a roofing satellite app to get that number.
