Roofing questions in Apopka, FL

Under section 553.844(5), Florida Statutes, if a roof was built or replaced under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, repairing 25 percent or more of it only requires the repaired portion to meet current code.

It is a recorded document that tells the public an improvement is underway on your property, which protects you under Florida's construction lien law. Orange County requires one on roof permits when the value of the work exceeds $5,000. We prepare it for your signature and record it.

It depends on the material, the installation and the ventilation. Sun, heat and storms are hard on roofs here, and architectural shingles generally have a shorter life than metal or concrete tile.

We watch the forecast closely during summer storm season and only open as much roof as we can dry in the same day. If a storm pops up, the crew covers the open area before it arrives.

Start with a roof inspection and written condition report with photos. Some roofs have more life than the date suggests and need only repairs; others are due for replacement. We report what we find, and the coverage decision stays with your insurer. We never promise an insurance outcome.
