Around here, they do it for 2- 6 packs of beer a day, one at lunch and one after work.

Wood shakes and shingles are almost extinct around here now. Especially wood shingles. But back in the 70's to early 90's, the roofers did them for $10.00 sq. (maybe $20 for wood shingles) up to 6/12. We installed several thousand squares a year back then.

Now, there's hardly anyone still active in the labor force who have ever even installed any wood. I have no idea what it would have to pay nowadays, since most anyone you hired to do it would be in a learning mode probably averaging 2-4 sq per day at most.
