Emergency response
Most roof repairs in the Greater Tampa Bay area cost between $400 and $2,500 and are finished in a single visit.

When to repair
Signs your roof needs repair now
Caught early, most of these are a straightforward fix. Left alone through a Florida wet season, they turn into decking and drywall.
- An active leak or dripping after heavy rain
- Water stains spreading across ceilings or visible in the attic
- Shingles missing or lifted after a storm
- Damaged or rusted flashing around a chimney, vent or skylight
- Granules collecting in the gutters or at the base of downspouts
- Daylight visible through the roof boards from inside the attic
How it works
From your call to a permanent fix
Call or book online
Our emergency line is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including through storm season.
Free inspection
We find the actual source of the leak, which is often not where the water appears, and photograph everything.
Emergency tarping
If the roof is open and rain is coming, we tarp it the same day so the damage stops spreading.
Permanent repair
Matched materials, repaired to Florida Building Code, and warranted in writing.
Repair or replace
How we decide which one you actually need
A repair is far cheaper than a replacement, but only when the rest of the roof has life left in it. This is the honest version of how that call gets made.

Cost
What a roof repair costs around Tampa Bay
Repairs vary more than replacements because the cause matters more than the size of the roof. These are the three bands most jobs fall into.
Minor repair
$400 – $900
A few shingles, a small flashing fix, or a single penetration resealed.
Standard repair
$900 – $2,500
A larger area, valley or chimney flashing, or a section of decking replaced.
Major or storm
$2,500 – $6,000+
Structural repair, several areas at once, usually going through insurance.
Emergency tarping is charged separately and is often covered by your policy. If the repair turns into a replacement, the inspection cost comes off the replacement price.

Questions
Roof repair, answered
Our line is answered around the clock and we aim to be on site the same day for active leaks. During a named storm, demand across the whole region spikes and we work through calls in order of severity, with open roofs and interior water first.
Yes. Emergency tarping is usually the first thing we do, because stopping water getting in matters more than the permanent fix, which often has to wait for dry weather anyway.
If the roof is under about 12 years old and the damage is in one area, repair is almost always the better value. Once there are leaks in several places, or the shingles are failing across the whole roof, repairs stop being economical. The table above is how we make that call.
Usually yes, where the damage came from a covered event such as a hurricane or hail. Wear and tear is not covered. We photograph everything, meet your adjuster on site, and supply the documentation the claim needs.
Most fall between $400 and $2,500. Minor shingle and flashing work sits at the lower end, while decking replacement or damage across several areas sits at the top. You get a written price before any work starts.
Yes. Workmanship is warranted in writing, and the materials carry their own manufacturer warranty. We will tell you the term for your specific repair before you commit.
