Featured Ybor City Project
A recent project in Ybor City.
A historic 1908 Ybor cigar-worker bungalow needed a full replacement. Three layers of old roofing were removed. The deck required significant repair after decades of moisture exposure. We installed a profile-appropriate architectural shingle that respected the historic character. The owner navigated historic preservation review with our documentation support.

Ybor City weather + roof factors.
Ybor is inland and urban. Less direct storm exposure but very mature tree canopy that contributes to debris damage. Older buildings have older flashings that fail more frequently.
“Everyone involved in replacing my roof was professional and courteous. Roof X did an amazing job, and our roof looks fantastic! The entire process, from start to finish, was pleasant and hassle-free. The work was completed on time, and they left the surrounding areas clean.”
