The company began taking preorders for its smooth black glass shingles and the textured glass shingles

The calculator uses information like the size of the roof, the average local price of electricity, and how much sunlight a neighborhood receives during a year to calculate the price.

All you have to do is go to Tesla's website, enter your home address, the square footage of your home, and how many stories your house has to get a price estimate for the Solar Roof.

The calculator will also show you how much you will save over 30 years.

If you decide the futuristic roof is for you, you can secure your order with a $1,000 deposit. The payment is fully refundable until you enter into an installation agreement with Tesla.

You can also opt to purchase a Powerwall, which is Tesla's rechargeable home battery, during your checkout.

The company will handle everything during the installation process including the removal of your existing roof through design, permitting, installation, operations, and maintenance of your new Solar Roof.

Installation should take about 5 to 7 days, which is how long a normal roof takes to install.
