Full tear-off and replacement. The only way to reset your roof clock — and the only way to qualify for the GAF Golden Pledge warranty.
A real replacement is a tear-off, not a layover. We strip the old system down to bare decking, then inspect every sheet of plywood before anything new goes on. Rotten or delaminated decking gets replaced — in Florida humidity that is common enough that we price for it honestly up front rather than surprising you mid-job.
Most single-family Tampa Bay homes are a one to three day job once the crew is on site, weather permitting. Tile and stone-coated metal take longer than asphalt. The longer part is usually permitting and inspection scheduling with the county, which we handle and keep you updated on.
Cost depends on square footage, pitch, how many layers are coming off, decking condition, and material. Rather than a made-up number, we wrote a full breakdown of Tampa Bay pricing: the complete guide to roof replacement costs in Tampa. If the number is the obstacle, we also offer financing.
Architectural asphalt shingle is the default and it is a good roof when installed correctly. But if you plan to stay in the house, look hard at stone-coated metal, which carries far better wind performance and can outlive two asphalt roofs, or concrete and clay tile if that is the look your neighborhood calls for.
We are one of the only Master Elite contractors in Tampa Bay who can offer the full Golden Pledge® warranty. That means 25 years of workmanship coverage — and if we ever disappear, GAF guarantees it.
Not sure you need a full replacement yet? A repair may be the right answer, and we will say so if it is.
This Hillsborough County home got a new roof this April, done by our crew from deck up. Old shingles and underlayment came off first, then we inspected the sheathing before laying new felt, flashing, and shingles in sequence. Ventilation and drip edge get squared away as part of the process, not tacked on after. Homeowner ends up with a roof system that's tied together properly.

In March we replaced the roof on a home in St. Petersburg from the ground up. The old roofing came off first, then we checked the deck before laying new underlayment and flashing ahead of the roofing system itself. Every step gets the same attention on our jobs, and this one wrapped with a solid, sealed roof and a yard cleared of debris before we left.

Replacing a roof means tearing everything down to the deck, checking for weak spots in the sheathing, and rolling out new underlayment before the new system goes on. We tarp the yard and driveway to keep debris contained, then sweep the site clean before we leave each day.
