Home/Roofing types/Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Asphalt Shingle Roofing in Tampa Bay and Orlando

The most common residential roof, replaced in a day on most homes, with architectural shingles built for Florida wind.

Asphalt shingle is the most common residential roofing material in Florida. It is affordable, available in many colors, and, when installed to Florida wind-resistance standards, performs well in Tampa Bay and Orlando. Roof X installs Owens Corning and GAF shingle systems.

Why Homeowners Choose Asphalt Shingles

  • Lower upfront cost than tile or metal
  • Many colors and styles, including architectural (dimensional) shingles
  • Fast installation, often a single day
  • Easy to repair and widely serviced

What Matters in Florida

Shingles perform only as well as the system under them. Fastening patterns, underlayment, sealed deck seams, starter strips and edge metal all affect wind resistance. We install the full manufacturer-approved system, not just the visible shingle, and we pull the permit.

Questions

Asphalt Shingle Roofing: Common Questions

Something else on your mind? Call (813) 590-1124 and talk to a real person.

How long does an asphalt shingle roof last in Florida?

Service life depends on the shingle, the ventilation and Florida’s sun and storm exposure. We explain what to expect for your roof at your estimate.

Are architectural shingles worth it?

They are thicker and typically more wind-resistant and longer-lived than basic three-tab shingles, with a more dimensional look.

How fast can a shingle roof be replaced?

Most homes are done in a single day.

Do shingle roofs need maintenance?

Yes. Debris clearing, resealing pipe boots and checking fasteners help. See Priority Care.
