How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?

Common signs include missing shingles, water stains on ceilings, granules in gutters, and visible sagging. If your roof is 15 to 20+ years old, it’s time to schedule an inspection.

Most residential roof replacements in Orlando take 1 to 3 days, depending on roof size, material (e.g., asphalt shingles vs. metal), and weather conditions. Commercial projects may extend to 3 to 7 days. We minimize disruption by working efficiently and cleaning up daily, ensuring your property in areas like Seminole or Lake County remains accessible.

Pinnacle Roofing Group installs a variety of durable materials suited to Florida’s codes: asphalt shingles for affordability, metal roofing (exposed fastened and standing seam) for longevity, tile for aesthetic appeal, stone coated steel for impact resistance, and flat systems like modified bitumen, TPO, and fluid applied coatings. These options provide high wind resistance (up to 150+ mph) and energy efficiency, ideal for Orlando’s hot summers.

If your roof was damaged by a storm, wind, or hail, it may be covered. We help homeowners work with insurance adjusters to maximize claims.

Start with a pre season inspection to identify vulnerabilities. Secure loose shingles, reinforce flashing, and trim overhanging trees to avoid debris impact. In Central Florida, opt for hurricane rated materials like impact resistant shingles or metal roofs. Our team can install reinforcements and provide maintenance plans to ensure your roof withstands high winds.

An expert inspection is key. Localized issues like a few missing shingles may only need repairs, but widespread damage, age (over 20 years), or multiple leaks often make replacement more cost effective. In humid areas like Marion County, unchecked repairs can lead to mold our assessments in Orlando help you decide based on long term savings.
