Erie Home

★★★★★ 4.5 [Google (1,400+ reviews)](https://www.google.com/search?q=Erie+Home+reviews+google+rating) as of August 2026

Stone-coated metal roofing specialist. 34+ states, 50-year transferable warranty, $0 down financing.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Erie Home specializes in stone-coated steel roofing — a heavier-duty alternative to asphalt shingles with a 50-year transferable warranty — and reviews back up their one-day installation claim even on large roofs, with repeated praise for thorough cleanup. Metal roofing costs more upfront than asphalt shingles; the tradeoff is longevity and storm resistance, which matters most in hail- or wind-prone regions.

## Why Does Roof Replacement Cost What It Does in Cape Coral?

Installed cost in Cape Coral runs roughly **4% below** the national average for this trade. That figure is not a cost-of-living index — it is built from Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data for the Cape Coral-Fort Myers, FL metro area, weighted by the roughly **22%** of a roof replacement job that is labor rather than material.

Local trade wages sit about **18% below** the national figure, but the installed price moves less than that, because material ships at national prices no matter where you live. This is why a quote from a high-wage metro is rarely as far above the national average as people expect — and why a suspiciously cheap quote in an expensive market is worth a second look.
