AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Tampa Homeowners
A full roof replacement in Tampa typically runs between $9,000 and $22,000 depending on the size of your home, the roofing material you choose, and how much decking underneath needs to be replaced. Most tear-off and re-roof jobs in Tampa take three to five working days once materials arrive, though larger tile or metal projects can stretch to seven. Winslow Windows & Doors has been putting roofs over Tampa families since 2011, and Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and on every job we do. When your roof goes, you don’t need a call center. You need a neighbor who answers. Call (386) 559-6999 any time, day or night, and a real person picks up.

What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Complete Roof Tear-Off and Replacement
A full tear-off means stripping every layer of old roofing down to the decking, inspecting what’s underneath, and starting clean. In Tampa’s climate, we routinely find hidden rot around chimney flashing and along eave lines where wind-driven rain has been sneaking in for years. For homeowners needing a full update, we offer Roof Replacement & Installation in Tampa. Winslow Windows & Doors handles the entire job in-house: tear-off, decking repair, underlayment, and the new roof system. We don’t subcontract your roof to a crew we’ve never met.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roof system in Tampa because they balance cost, life expectancy (25 to 30 years), and wind resistance. In neighborhoods like Westchase, Carrollwood, and New Tampa, we see a lot of shingle roofs that failed early because the original installer skimped on underlayment or used nails that were too short. We also provide Roof Replacement & Installation in Lutz for nearby communities. We install shingle roofing to exceed Florida’s high-velocity hurricane zone requirements, not just meet them.
Tile Roof Replacement
Concrete and clay tile roofs are everywhere in South Tampa and along Bayshore Boulevard, where their weight and Spanish or Mediterranean profile match the architecture. Tile roofs in Tampa can last 50 years or more, but the underlayment beneath them typically fails after 20 to 25 years, which means a tile re-roof often involves lifting the tiles, replacing the underlayment, and resetting the same tile if it’s still sound. Ed Winslow’s crews know how to walk tile without cracking it, and we replace any broken pieces with matched profiles.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal roofs handle Tampa’s afternoon thunderstorms and hurricane season wind loads extremely well, and they reflect a lot of solar heat, which matters when your attic hits 140 degrees in July. Metal costs more upfront than shingles, typically $15,000 to $30,000 on a mid-sized Tampa home, but it can last 40 to 60 years. We install metal roofing over new decking with high-temp underlayment rated for metal contact, which is a detail many contractors skip.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Replacement
Flat roofs appear on mid-century ranches in Seminole Heights, Riverside Heights, and on the occasional porch or carport addition across Tampa. Low-slope systems require different materials: modified bitumen, TPO, or peel-and-stick membranes that actually like standing water. We inspect the slope and drainage pattern before recommending a system, because a flat roof that puddles after every storm will fail no matter what you put on it.
Storm Damage Roof Replacement
After a Tampa summer squall or a tropical system passes through, we walk roofs looking for lifted shingles, creased tile, bruised decking, and impact marks that may not leak for months but become big problems later. We document everything with photos so your insurance claim has the evidence it needs. Winslow Windows & Doors works with your adjuster and gives you a written line-item estimate, so you never wonder what a line on the invoice means.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
We install roof systems from manufacturers that build for Florida’s wind and heat profile, including PGT and ViewLux. PGT’s roofing components and skylight systems are designed and tested in the same Florida wind zone we work in, which means the pressure ratings are real, not a number from a lab in Ohio. We’ve installed and serviced PGT skylights and roof accessories across Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Clearwater, and we know how their flashing details hold up against forty years of Tampa sun. Ask us about our Roof Replacement & Installation in Clearwater.
For homeowners who need a complete exterior system done together, we also carry Therma-Tru and Mr-Glass product lines, which matter when your roof project grows to include doors, impact windows, or a new entry system to match the roof’s architectural profile. Whether you have PGT, ViewLux, or any other make, we can help. And if you bring us a written estimate from another company for the same scope, we’ll give you a free second opinion.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Granules in your gutters or at the base of your downspouts. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, and once that protective layer is gone, the asphalt beneath dries out and cracks under the Tampa sun. If you see a steady stream of granules after every rain, your roof is telling you it’s in its last few years.
- Daylight visible through the attic roof deck. During the day, walk your attic and look up. If you can see pinholes of light, water can see the same holes. In Tampa’s rainy season, that’s not a warning, it’s a clock ticking.
- Shingles that are curling, cupping, or missing after a storm. Wind-rated shingles should sit flat. When edges lift or tabs go missing, the waterproof seal is broken. What starts as one missing shingle in West Tampa becomes a full decking replacement after a month of Florida rain.
- Water stains on ceilings or along exterior walls. A stain doesn’t always mean the roof is leaking directly above it; water travels along rafters and trusses. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the leak may have soaked insulation and damaged drywall, which means the repair gets more expensive every week you wait.
- Your roof is 20 years old or older. In Hillsborough County, a 20-year-old asphalt roof is on borrowed time, regardless of what the paperwork says. If you bought the house and the seller couldn’t tell you the roof’s age, that’s another sign: start with an inspection, not an assumption.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free on-site inspection and written estimate. Ed Winslow or one of our background-checked roof technicians walks the roof himself, takes photos, and checks the attic for hidden decking damage. You get a written, line-item estimate with no trip charge inside Hillsborough County, so you know exactly what everything costs before you sign anything.
- 2
Material selection and scheduling. We’ll walk you through shingle, tile, and metal options with honest numbers for each. We don’t push the most expensive option; we push the one that fits your home’s exposure, your roof pitch, and your budget. Once you pick, we order materials and lock in a start date.
- 3
Permit acquisition and site protection. Winslow Windows & Doors pulls all required City of Tampa and Hillsborough County permits for every roof replacement. We protect your landscaping, pool cage, and driveway with tarps and ground cover, and we keep the job site clean every single day.
- 4
Tear-off, decking inspection, and installation. The old roof comes off, and every square foot of decking gets inspected for rot, termite damage, and nail hold. We replace any questionable decking at cost before laying down the underlayment and the new roof system. If high-tension fastening or complex flashing work is part of the job, our trained pros handle it. This is not DIY territory.
- 5
Final inspection, cleanup, and walkthrough. When the roof is complete, Ed or a senior crew lead walks it with you. We run a magnet sweep for loose nails, haul away all debris, and make sure the roof’s drainage path is clean. Then we record the installation date and materials against the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If anything isn’t right, we come back and make it right.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Tampa?
A typical asphalt shingle roof replacement on a 1,800-square-foot Tampa home runs between $9,500 and $14,500. The same home in standing-seam metal will run $18,000 to $28,000. Tile re-roofs in Tampa commonly land between $16,000 and $30,000 because the existing tile must be lifted, cleaned, and reset over new underlayment. Those are honest ranges based on the jobs we’ve priced and completed across Hillsborough County, not national averages that mean nothing to a homeowner in Seminole Heights.
What moves the number: the size and pitch of your roof (a steep two-story roof costs more to work on safely), how many layers have to come off, the amount of rotten decking underneath, the material you choose, and whether you need new flashing around skylights, chimneys, or vents. The cheapest way to avoid overpaying is to get a written, line-item estimate and compare it against another written, line-item estimate. We’ll give you a free second opinion on any written estimate you bring us, and our price will not change once we start unless you ask us to change the scope. No change orders, no surprises on the invoice. Call (386) 559-6999 for an exact quote.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Tampa
Roof replacement means removing the existing roof system down to the decking and installing a completely new one: underlayment, flashing, and the outer shingle, tile, or metal surface. Installation is the construction process itself, including decking repair, vent and skylight flashing, and final cleanup. In Tampa, a full replacement is almost always the right move when the existing roof is past 20 years old or has widespread damage. We also offer Roof Replacement & Installation in Pinellas Park for homeowners in that area.
Most asphalt shingle replacements in Tampa take three to five working days from tear-off to final walkthrough. Tile and metal roofs can take five to ten working days depending on size and weather. Rain delays are real in Tampa from June through September, and we schedule around them rather than rushing a wet underlayment job.
Expect $9,000 to $22,000 for most single-family homes in Tampa, with shingle roofs at the lower end and tile or metal at the higher end. The final number depends on roof size, pitch, decking condition, and material choice. We provide a written line-item estimate before you commit, and our price doesn’t change once work begins. Call (386) 559-6999 for a free estimate and an honest number for your specific roof.
Yes, we install and service PGT roofing components and skylights in Tampa and across the Bay area. PGT builds and tests their products in Florida, which matters when you’re dealing with hurricane wind loads and a Florida sun that eats cheap materials alive. If you have PGT skylights, roof accessories, or any other make, we can help.
We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we’ll come out to assess storm damage, tarp a roof, or stabilize a leak as fast as possible. A full roof replacement usually isn’t a same-day job, but we’ll get your roof protected and give you a written plan. Call (386) 559-6999 the moment you see daylight where daylight shouldn’t be.
Every Winslow Windows & Doors roof replacement carries our 36500-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right, period. Manufacturer warranties on the materials apply on top of that, and we register them for you. That’s a century-long standard of accountability no national chain can match.
Move vehicles out of the driveway and away from the work zone, clear items from attic floors near the roof deck (dust and small debris will fall), and secure or remove anything fragile on your walls that could shake when the old roof is being removed. If you have pets, plan for noise they may not enjoy. We’ll handle everything else, including protecting landscaping and cleaning up every nail.
