Roofing Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a professional roof inspection?
A professional roof inspection includes checking shingles or tiles, flashing, vents, gutters, and attic ventilation for damage or deterioration. At Superior Built Roofing, we also provide a comprehensive written report with drone imagery and repair recommendations.
How often should I have my roof inspected in Florida?
In Florida’s climate, roofs should be inspected at least twice a year — once before hurricane season and again afterward. Regular inspections prevent small issues from turning into costly leaks or replacements.
What is a Roof Care program, and how does it save me money?
Our Comprehensive Roof Care Program provides bi-annual inspections, resealing, gutter cleaning, priority service, and exclusive member pricing. It helps extend your roof’s lifespan and avoid expensive emergency repairs.
How do I know if my roof needs repair or replacement?
If your roof has missing shingles, cracked tiles, or leaks after storms, it may need repair. However, if it’s over 15–20 years old or shows extensive damage, a roof replacement may be more cost-effective. Our team provides honest assessments backed by detailed inspections.
What types of roofing materials do you install and service?
We specialize in asphalt shingles, tile, metal, and flat roofing systems for both residential and commercial properties. Each material offers unique benefits for Florida’s heat and storm conditions, and we tailor our recommendations to your property’s needs.
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements take one to three days, depending on size, material, and weather conditions. Larger or commercial projects may take longer. We always prioritize safety, code compliance, and minimal disruption to your home or business.
Are roof repairs or replacements covered by insurance?
In many cases, storm, wind, or hail damage may be covered under your homeowner’s insurance. Our inspection team can help document the damage and assist you throughout the insurance claim process for a smoother experience.
How can I prepare my roof for hurricane season?
Schedule a pre-season roof inspection, clean gutters, trim nearby trees, and make sure all flashing and fasteners are secure. Superior Built Roofing also offers priority emergency tarping and fast response services for Roof Care members.
What should I do if my roof leaks?
If you notice a leak, contact a professional roofer immediately to assess the damage and prevent further issues. While waiting for repairs, try to contain the leak by placing a bucket under the drip and covering the area with a tarp.
