Asphalt Shingle Roofs

Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in Florida due to their affordability, quick installation, and variety of styles. They perform well in most weather conditions and are a cost-effective choice for many homeowners. With proper ventilation and installation, modern asphalt shingles can hold up well to Florida’s heat, humidity, and occasional storms.

Metal Roofs

Metal roofing has grown in popularity across Florida thanks to its exceptional durability and energy efficiency. These roofs reflect sunlight, helping to keep homes cooler during hot summers. Metal roofs also stand up well to hurricane-force winds and heavy rain, making them a wise long-term investment in storm-prone areas.

Tile Roofs (Clay & Concrete)

Tile roofs, especially clay and concrete, are a favorite in Florida for their classic look and ability to withstand the harsh sun. They are highly resistant to fire, moisture, and pests, and they perform well in coastal environments. While heavier and more costly upfront, tile roofs offer a long lifespan and strong protection against high winds and salty air.

Flat Roofs (TPO & Modified Bitumen)

Flat roofs are common on modern homes and commercial buildings in Florida. Materials like TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin) and modified bitumen are designed to resist ponding water, UV rays, and heat buildup. Proper drainage and expert installation are key, and our team ensures your flat roof system performs efficiently and lasts for years.

Architectural Shingles

Also known as dimensional shingles, these are a step up from traditional 3-tab shingles. Architectural shingles offer a layered look and enhanced durability. Their thickness and design make them better suited for Florida’s heavy rains and high winds, while still keeping the classic look homeowners love.
