O'Brien Contracting is a licensed Florida roofing contractor (License CCC1335947) working in Tampa, Florida, Hillsborough County. Tampa has roughly 400,000 residents and dates to 1849, with a median home value near $425,000. Tampa Bay's unique geography creates microclimates. Historic Ybor City and Hyde Park require period-appropriate materials while meeting modern codes. We handle roof repair, full replacement, inspections, leak detection, emergency tarping and storm damage documentation on shingle, metal, tile and low-slope systems.
Roof work in Tampa is permitted through Hillsborough County. We pull the permit, submit the product approval documentation and meet the inspector on site — homeowners do not file anything themselves.
Tampa is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, but roofs here are still designed to Florida Building Code wind requirements, with product approval, nailing schedule and secondary water barrier all verified at inspection. Local designation: Wind Zone 2 (110-120 mph). Tampa averages about 46 inches of rain a year, most of it in the summer storm season, which is why flashing and valley detail matters more here than roof covering alone.
The roofs we see most in Tampa are Shingle, Metal and Flat/TPO.
After a storm we inspect, photograph conditions, install temporary protection where it is needed, and organize the documentation so you can present it to your insurer. We cannot promise that a carrier will approve or pay a claim, and we do not offer to absorb deductibles.

Tampa follows Florida Building Code wind design outside the HVHZ. The required rating depends on your address, roof height and exposure category, and we confirm it against the approved product documentation before installation rather than quoting a rating from memory.
Most homes here run Shingle, Metal and Flat/TPO. The right answer depends on the existing deck, the roof pitch, and how long you plan to keep the home. We walk through the trade-offs after the inspection instead of pushing one system.
