Florida Roof Replacement

A Florida roof replacement is a code job, not just a materials job. Deck re-nailing, secondary water barrier, updated flashing, correct fastener patterns and proper ventilation are what actually determine how the roof performs in a hurricane — and what an inspector and an insurance underwriter look for.

What a replacement includes

Material choices in Florida

Architectural shingle is the most common and most affordable. Metal costs more up front and lasts substantially longer, and standing seam handles wind and salt air well on coastal homes. Tile suits Mediterranean and Spanish-style homes and lasts decades when the underlayment is maintained. We walk through the trade-offs for your specific roof rather than pushing one system.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most single-family shingle replacements are completed in a few working days once materials are on site and the permit is issued. Tile and metal take longer.

Do you pull the permit?

Yes. We handle permitting and coordinate the required inspections with your local building department.

What warranty comes with a new roof?

Manufacturer material coverage varies by system, and O’Brien Contracting backs its own installation with a lifetime workmanship guarantee.
