AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Tampa Homeowners
A full roof replacement in Tampa typically runs $9,800-$18,500 for an average single-family home, depending on square footage, pitch, and the roofing system you choose. Most tear-offs and re-roofs take 2-5 working days once materials arrive, and TruePane Windows & Doors has been standing behind exterior workmanship in this community since 2008 through our founding craft tradition. If your roof is leaking, lifting, or past its useful life, call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll send a background-checked technician to give you a written, line-item estimate with no surprise charges.
We know a Tampa roof takes a beating. Between the afternoon thunderstorms, the salt air pushing in from the bay, and the hurricane seasons that turn a small lifted shingle into a torn-off section overnight, the roof over your head earns its keep. Our founder Dale Kessler built TruePane on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That same standard applies to every roof we install. We measure twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. No arguing later. No fine print that covers neither.
This is not a franchise playbook. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and plan to be in town answering the phone in thirty years. A live person answers every call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. If your roof is failing, you’ll talk to someone who can help. Call (813) 320-9346 now.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Roof replacement in Tampa is not one-size-fits-all. The right system for a 1920s bungalow in Seminole Heights is not the right system for a block home in New Tampa or a stilt house near the water. Here is what we handle, and how we approach each part of the job.
Full Roof Tear-Off and Replacement
We strip the old roofing down to the deck, inspect the sheathing, and replace any rotted or delaminated sections before a single new shingle goes down. Tampa’s humidity means hidden deck damage is common, especially around valleys and pipe boots. We don’t roof over problems; we open them up and fix them first. Every tear-off includes new underlayment, new flashing, new drip edge, and new fasteners rated for Florida wind loads.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Installation
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing choice in Tampa for good reason: they hold up well in heat, shed rain efficiently, and come in colors that suit Florida architecture. We install GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed systems with full manufacturer specifications, including proper nailing patterns and starter strips. A shingle roof installed wrong will lift in the first thunderstorm; installed right, it will carry a 25- to 50-year manufacturer warranty in writing.
Metal Roof Installation
Metal roofing has become a serious option for Tampa homeowners who plan to stay in the house for twenty or more years. Standing-seam and stone-coated steel systems shrug off the afternoon downpours and can lower cooling costs by reflecting more of the sun than asphalt. We install metal roofs with the same discipline we bring to every job: measured twice, fasteners checked, penetrations sealed and tested. If you’re weighing metal versus shingle, we’ll quote both side by side on paper so you can make the call without a salesman standing over your shoulder.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Systems
Flat roofs are common on mid-century Tampa homes, carports, and additions, and they have their own set of problems: ponding water, seam failures, and UV breakdown. We work with modified bitumen, TPO, and PVC systems, and we pay particular attention to drainage and perimeter flashing. A flat roof that holds water after a rain is a roof that is already failing. We correct the slope and the membrane in the same visit whenever possible.
Roof Storm Damage Repair and Replacement
After a Tampa storm moves through, we walk the roof with you and document what the wind and rain actually did: lifted shingles, creased metal, failed flashing, water intrusion at the soffits. If the damage calls for replacement, we’ll tell you. If a repair will keep your roof sound for another five years, we’ll tell you that too. A square deal means you never pay for a replacement when a repair is the right call.
Roof Ventilation and Ridge Cap Replacement
A new roof in Tampa needs to breathe. We install or upgrade ridge vents, soffit vents, and box vents to move hot air out of the attic so your shingles don’t bake from underneath. Improper ventilation is one of the most common reasons a fifteen-year shingle fails in ten. We check the balance of intake and exhaust as part of every installation and correct it before we lay the field.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and that matters when it comes time to register a warranty. We work directly with the manufacturers, follow their installation specifications exactly, and register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. We’ve installed hundreds of GAF and CertainTeed systems across Hillsborough County, and we stock the flashings, vents, and accessories those systems call for. When a manufacturer issues an update to their nailing pattern or underlayment requirement, we adopt it the week it lands, not three years later.
We also service and install Mr-Glass skylight and roof glazing systems, and we’re experienced with the roof integration that PGT reinforced roof-to-wall connections demand. Whether you have GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, or any other make, we can help. The brands matters less than the hands doing the work. A top-tier shingle installed by a crew that skips starters and overdrives nails will fail early every time. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and never send a crew we haven’t built ourselves.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Granules collecting in your gutters. When the asphalt granules start washing off your shingles, the protective UV layer is gone and the mat underneath is exposed to Tampa’s sun. This usually shows up in the three to five years before a shingle roof fails. If your gutters look like a sandbar after every rain, it’s time for an inspection.
- Sunlight visible through the attic sheathing. Walk the attic on a bright afternoon with the lights off. If you can see pinpoints or cracks of daylight coming through the roof deck, water has a path in too. This is not a caulk-and-forget situation. The deck is compromised and will need repair or replacement before new roofing goes on.
- Shingles curling, cupping, or lifting at the edges. Curled shingles are the roof’s way of telling you the seal strip has failed and the wind already has a purchase point. Tampa’s afternoon gusts will find a lifted shingle and peel it like a can lid. Once the roof starts losing shingles, the damage accelerates with every storm.
- Water stains on ceilings or around ceiling penetrations. A brown ring around a ceiling light or ceiling fan means water has already worked its way through the entire roofing system and into the conditioned space. By the time you see the stain, the deck above is often saturated. Waiting costs more money, not less.
- Roof age over 18 years with original materials. Most architectural shingle roofs in Tampa are rated for 20 to 30 years, but our climate is hard on them. If your roof is past its eighteenth birthday and still wearing the original shingles, start budgeting for replacement now. An inspection will tell you if you have two years left or two months.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
We do not surprise homeowners. The process is laid out in writing before work begins, and it does not change unless you approve the change in writing. Here is how a TruePane roof replacement goes.
Step 1: The On-Site Inspection and Written Estimate
A background-checked technician walks the roof, documents existing conditions with photos, and checks the attic for ventilation and deck damage. You get a written, line-item estimate on the spot, not a vague number in a text message three days later. The estimate stays the estimate. We do not change the price once work starts unless the deck opens up and reveals something nobody could have seen from above, and even then, you approve it in writing first.
Step 2: Material Selection and Warranty Registration
You choose the roofing system, the color, and the warranty tier. We quote the options side by side on paper so you can see exactly what a thirty-year architectural shingle costs versus a fifty-year system. Once you choose, we order materials and schedule the job. Both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway at the end of installation. Not later. Not “processing.” Done.
Step 3: Tear-Off and Deck Preparation
The old roof comes off down to the deck. We protect your landscaping with tarps, run magnetic sweepers for nails at the end of every day, and keep the job site clean. Any rotted or weakened deck sections are replaced before underlayment goes down. We do not hide deck problems under new shingles. We fix them, photograph them, and show you what we found.
Step 4: Installation to Manufacturer Specification
Underlayment, starter strips, flashing, valley lining, shingles, ridge cap: every layer is installed to the manufacturer’s written specification, full stop. We follow the nailing patterns, we use the right fastener length, and we check the work as it goes up. Our crews are uniformed and background-checked, and they work in your home the way they would work in their own mother’s.
Step 5: Final Inspection and the 90-Day Done Right Promise
Before we call the job done, the project lead walks the roof a final time with a checklist, then walks it again with you from the ground where you can see it. Any deficiency, we fix it before we leave. Then the 90-Day Done Right Promise takes over: if it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing. Done right is the standard on the first visit and the baseline for every callback.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Tampa?
A full architectural shingle re-roof in Tampa typically runs $9,800 to $18,500 for a standard single-family home, with most three-bedroom homes landing between $11,000 and $14,000. Metal roofing runs higher, typically $16,000 to $28,000 depending on the panel type and roof complexity. Flat roof systems usually fall between $8,000 and $15,000. These numbers are for complete tear-off and replacement with new underlayment, flashing, and ventilation; they are not patch-and-coat numbers.
What moves the price: roof pitch (a 6/12 is faster and safer to work than a 10/12), number of roof planes and valleys, deck repairs, existing layers that need to come off, and the warranty tier you choose. Homes in Davis Islands and Hyde Park with complex rooflines will usually run higher than a simple ranch in Carrollwood. What does not move the price: a smooth sales pitch. Our estimates are line-item and fixed. We include the cost of permits and the cost of hauling off the old roof. No change orders unless you approve them in writing.
The best way to avoid overpaying is to compare written estimates that list the same line items. Ask for the underlayment brand, the warranty tier, and the deck repair allowance in writing. We will hand you that paper the same day we inspect. Call (813) 320-9346 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Tampa
Roof replacement means tearing off the existing roofing material down to the deck, repairing or replacing any damaged decking, and installing a complete new roofing system: underlayment, flashing, field material, and ridge cap. In Tampa, it is typically done when a roof has reached the end of its service life, suffered storm damage, or failed from improper original installation. TruePane handles the full job, from tear-off through final inspection and warranty registration.
Most residential roof replacements in Tampa take 2 to 5 working days once materials are delivered. The exact timeline depends on roof size, pitch, number of layers being removed, and the roofing system being installed. Weather can add days; we schedule around Tampa’s afternoon storm pattern and keep the job site protected overnight. We give you a start date and a finish date in writing before we begin.
Most full roof replacements in Tampa run between $9,800 and $18,500 for asphalt shingle systems, and between $16,000 and $28,000 for metal. Flat and low-slope roofs typically land between $8,000 and $15,000. Your exact price depends on roof size, pitch, deck condition, and the materials you choose. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free, written, line-item estimate with no surprise charges.
Yes. We are an authorized installer for PGT and work with Mr-Glass roof glazing systems, along with GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, and more than a dozen other manufacturer lines. We quote products side by side on paper so you can compare what you are actually buying. Both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing before the job is complete.
When a storm opens up your roof and water is coming in, you need someone now, not a callback form. A live person at TruePane answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We will walk you through immediate steps to protect the interior, and we will get a technician out to put a tarp on and stop the water. After the weather clears, we handle the full replacement.
Every TruePane roof installation is covered by the 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork and no arguing. On top of that, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. You will have the manufacturer warranty documents in hand, not a promise to file them later.
Move vehicles out of the driveway and away from the fall zone, and clear light items from walls and shelves inside your home; a tear-off sends vibration through the framing. We protect landscaping with tarps and run magnetic sweepers daily to catch stray nails. If you have attic valuables, cover them with a sheet. We handle the permits and the final cleanup; you should not have to do anything else.
