Roofing Contractors in Hawthorne, FL Who Care

Factors that go into the decision to replace your roof include the age of the roof as well as the overall condition of the roofing material. For example, if your roof is asphalt shingles, signs may include curving or buckling of the shingles, missing or damaged shingles, or dark spots forming on the surface.

Schedule a free consultation and we will take a look at your roof to help you make the decision between repairing and replacing your roof and help you weigh your options.

The short answer is that it depends on the material you choose and how long you want your roof to last. Less expensive options tend to last fewer years and may not stand up to heavy storms or high winds. Perry Roofing has chosen to provide high quality materials for our customers and help them make the best long-term choice for their residential or commercial roofs.

A roof is an investment in your property. Ensuring you have a high quality roofing system installed by trusted and experienced professionals is an important investment in the value of your property. We also work with the Florida PACE Program to help make the right roofing solution an affordable option for our customers.

The Hawthorne and surrounding Florida area affects different roofs in different ways:

Shingle roofs: It is important for shingle roofs in Hawthorne to be able to withstand high winds and rain from the summer storms.  Additionally, the high humidity can cause algae and mold to grow on the shingle roof systems.  This doesn’t hurt the roof, but be an eyesore.  We address these two issues by installing shingles with industry-leading pull-off resistance due to a reinforced nailing zone and copper embedded granules to deter algae growth.

Single-Ply roofs: Unlike many regions in the United States, the most important factor when installing a single-ply roof system (other than keeping the water out) is the ability to stand up to and reflect extreme heat.  This makes TPO a great choice for budget-conscious building owners with flat roofs in Hawthorne.  TPO comes in a bright white color that provides excellent reflectance, and the heat-welded seams don’t break down in the summer heat.  On the other hand, EPDM (rubber) single-ply roof systems are not a good single-ply option.  The extreme heat compromises the glued seams over time, and the heating benefits of the naturally dark membrane make your building less energy efficient. 

Metal roofs: Metal roofs are a durable roof system to install.  Metal roofs in the Hawthorne area reflect heat well, and stand up to the extreme storms that are common in our region.  The one drawback is that they are subject to significant expansion and contraction from the extreme temperatures.  As a result, exposed fastener systems can lose their water-tight seals over time.

Florida Building Code allows for two roof systems to be installed on a building, but in most residential applications, the savings are not worth the problems that can be caused by this. 

It is usually better to tear off the old roof down to the deck and install a completely new system.  It costs a little bit more but provides a much better long-term solution. 

On larger commercial flat roofs, it is often a significant savings to roof over an existing roof system, and as long as the existing roof is a single system and not saturated with water from active leaks, this is a solution that we highly recommend.

It really depends on the condition and age of your roof material.  If your roof is newer and the roofing material is showing minimal signs of wear, there is a good chance that a properly applied repair can extend the life of your roof significantly without needing a replacement. 

If the roofing material is showing signs of age, or there are multiple leaks, it gets to the point where a replacement will probably be a better long-term investment.  We are happy to provide a free leak inspection and give you a recommendation on what the best course of action will be.
