How long does a roof last in Florida's climate?

In Florida’s harsh climate, roof lifespan depends heavily on materials and installation quality. Asphalt shingles typically last 15-20 years, while metal roofing can last 40-50 years with proper installation. The key factor is hurricane resistance. Roofs that aren’t built to withstand Florida’s wind and rain often fail much sooner, sometimes requiring replacement after just one major storm. That’s why we focus on materials and installation techniques that can handle winds up to 180 mph. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs after storms can extend your roof’s life significantly. But in Florida, investing in quality materials upfront usually saves money compared to frequent repairs and early replacement.

Will my insurance cover roof replacement in Inglewood?

Insurance coverage depends on your policy and the reason for replacement. Storm damage is typically covered, but age-related wear may not be. Florida’s recent changes to the 25% rule now give insurance companies more discretion in repair versus replacement decisions. Many insurance companies are dropping policies for roofs over 10 years old, making timely replacement crucial for maintaining coverage. We help document storm damage properly and work directly with your insurance company to maximize your claim. The key is having a roof that meets current Florida building codes. Older roofs that don’t comply with post-Hurricane Andrew standards may not qualify for full coverage. We ensure all our installations meet current codes to protect your insurability.

What roofing materials work best for hurricane protection?

Metal roofing provides the best hurricane protection, withstanding winds up to 180 mph when properly installed. It’s also excellent for reflecting Florida’s intense sun and resisting water damage. Clay and concrete tiles offer good wind resistance up to 130 mph and excellent durability against sun and rain. They’re popular in Florida because they handle the climate well and provide good insulation. Asphalt shingles are the most affordable option but require high-quality installation with proper hurricane ties and underlayment. The key is using materials rated for high winds and ensuring proper installation that meets Florida building codes.

How quickly can you start my roofing project?

Timeline depends on whether it’s emergency storm damage or planned replacement. For storm damage, we prioritize emergency repairs to prevent further damage and can often start within 24-48 hours. For planned replacements, we typically schedule within 2-3 weeks, depending on material availability and permit processing. We handle all permit applications and inspections to avoid delays. During hurricane season or after major storms, timelines may extend due to high demand and material shortages. We’re honest about realistic timelines and keep you informed if anything changes during the process.

Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes, we provide comprehensive insurance claim assistance. We document all damage with photos and detailed reports, work directly with your insurance adjuster, and help you understand what’s covered under your policy. Our experience with Florida insurance companies helps us present claims in the format they require. We know what documentation they need and how to communicate the scope of work effectively. We also help you understand the claims process timeline and what to expect. Many Inglewood homeowners find the insurance process confusing, so we guide you through each step to ensure you get the coverage you’re entitled to.
