Roof Replacement
Protect Your Home with a Quality New Roof
Professional Roof Replacement
Services in Florida
A roof replacement is one of the most significant decisions a homeowner makes. Get it right and your home is protected for the next 25 to 50 years. Get it wrong and you're dealing with the same problems under a brand new roof.
At Ross Roofing & Restoration, we treat every replacement as a complete roofing system installation -- not just a swap of surface materials. That means inspecting the decking, verifying ventilation, replacing failing components, and installing everything to Florida Building Code and wind mitigation standards.
Roof Replacement Services We Provide
Florida's climate is harder on roofing systems than most of the country. Intense UV exposure, high humidity, and hurricane-force wind loads accelerate deterioration -- meaning the material you choose and the way it's installed directly determines how long your roof performs.
Asphalt Shingle Replacement
Modern architectural shingles are the most widely installed roofing system in Florida for good reason. They carry wind resistance ratings up to 130 mph, manufacturer warranties of 25 to 30 years, and offer the broadest range of styles at the most accessible price point for full replacement.
Metal Roof Replacement
Standing seam metal roofing reflects radiant heat, reducing attic temperatures and cutting cooling costs year-round. With a service life of 40 to 70 years and exceptional performance against Florida's wind and rain, it's one of the most durable long-term investments a homeowner can make.
Tile Roof Replacement
Clay and concrete tile handles UV exposure better than almost any other roofing material available. It provides excellent thermal mass, resists Florida's humidity, and carries a service life that can exceed 50 years when the underlayment system beneath it is installed correctly.
Storm Damage Replacement
When a named storm causes damage beyond what repair can address, we document the full scope of the loss, support your insurance claim with detailed photo evidence and written assessments, and prioritize your project once the claim is approved.
"When repairs are no longer enough, we replace your roof the right way -- built to code, built for Florida's climate, built to last."
How Do You Know It's Time
to Replace Your Roof?
The decision between repair and replacement isn't always obvious. These indicators typically mean the roof system itself has reached the end of its functional life -- and that continued repairs are no longer the most cost-effective path forward.
Widespread shingle deterioration
When curling, cracking, and granule loss are spread across the entire roof surface rather than isolated sections, the material has broken down systemwide.
A roof 20 years or older
Most asphalt shingle systems installed in Florida have a functional lifespan of 20 to 25 years. Age alone isn't a reason to replace -- but age combined with any of the other indicators below usually is.
Multiple layers of existing roofing
Florida Building Code limits the number of roofing layers allowed. If your home already has two layers, the next installation requires a full tear-off regardless of the condition of the surface layer.
Decking deterioration beneath the surface
When moisture has been penetrating the system long enough to rot or soften the structural decking, surface-level repairs cannot restore the roof's integrity.
Storm damage across a large portion of the roof
Isolated wind or impact damage can often be repaired. When damage is widespread -- affecting 30 percent or more of the roof surface -- replacement is typically the more practical and cost-effective solution.
Escalating energy bills
An aging or failing roof system often compromises attic ventilation and insulation performance. If your cooling costs have increased without explanation, the roof system may be contributing.
What a Complete Roof Replacement Actually Involves
Many homeowners assume a replacement is simply removing old shingles and installing new ones. A properly executed replacement is considerably more involved -- and every step matters for long-term performance.
At Ross Roofing & Restoration, a full replacement includes:
- Complete tear-off of the existing roofing system down to the deck
- Full decking inspection with repair or replacement of any damaged sections
- Installation of a code-compliant underlayment system as the moisture barrier
- New drip edge and flashing installation at all critical transition points
- Ridge vent installation or verification to ensure proper attic ventilation
- Surface material installation to manufacturer specifications and Florida Building Code
- Final inspection and complete debris removal from the property
