Across 7,305 permits filed since 2025-01-25, the median is $20,000; half of projects fall between $12,000 and $34,000. Figures are permit valuations reported to building departments. National cost guides answer this question with averages from other markets; these numbers are what homeowners in Connecticut actually reported when they pulled permits.

How to read these numbers
Permit valuations are the project cost the applicant reports to the building department. They skew slightly low — nobody rounds up for the permit fee — and scope varies, so the middle-half range is the honest picture: half of all roof replacement permits in Connecticut came in between $12,000 and $34,000. We exclude permits under $1,000, jobs filed as whole-house construction, and counties whose building departments don't reliably report valuations.
