Shingle Roof Replacement in Fort Myers

What Is a Shingle Roof Replacement?

A shingle roof replacement is a high-performance outer shield for the Florida coast. It is not a patch job or a layer-over; we perform a full removal that allows for a complete deck inspection. We strip away existing asphalt layers, inspect the underlying wood for rot or structural issues, and fix what needs fixing before installing a manufacturer-certified system from the deck up.

You likely need a replacement if you are seeing missing or curling shingles, water staining, or if your roof exceeds its 15-20 year lifespan. In high-velocity hurricane zones, we use Cat 5 rated shingles and secondary water barriers to meet current Florida building codes. We handle the Owens Corning Platinum installation, the permits, and the HOA coordination to ensure a full structural reset.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore our seamless process, from meticulous site assessment to flawless execution, ensuring top-tier quality every step of the way.

Does a shingle roof replacement in Fort Myers require Cat 5 rated shingles and a secondary water barrier under Lee County code?

Yes. Florida building code requires Cat 5 rated shingles and a secondary water barrier for shingle roof replacements in Fort Myers and all of Lee County's high velocity hurricane zones. Sunset installs both on every job as mandatory code requirements, not optional upgrades, and pulls all Lee County permits before any work begins.

Why should Fort Myers homeowners choose Sunset Roofing for a shingle roof replacement over other local contractors?

Sunset holds both Owens Corning Platinum Preferred and GAF Certified Plus certifications, making them one of the very few contractors in Lee County carrying both at the same time. That means access to extended manufacturer warranties, certified Cat 5 installation, and a company with physical offices in Fort Myers that will still be here when your warranty needs to be honored.

What happens if my Fort Myers shingle roof replacement reveals rotted deck boards after the tear off begins?

Sunset inspects every board on the deck after stripping the old system. Any rotted or structurally damaged boards are repaired before new shingles go on. You are told about any deck issues before they are addressed and nothing is added to your bill after the job is already underway.

My Fort Myers shingle roof is only 12 years old but I keep getting leaks after heavy rain. Does that mean I need a full shingle roof replacement?

Not necessarily. Repeated leaks on a relatively young roof usually point to flashing failures, nail pops, or a compromised secondary water barrier rather than shingle age alone. A free Sunset inspection identifies the actual cause so you are not paying for a full replacement when a targeted repair would resolve the problem entirely.

Will a shingle roof replacement in Fort Myers qualify me for a wind mitigation discount on my homeowner's insurance?

Very likely. A properly installed shingle roof with Cat 5 shingles, a secondary water barrier, and sealed decking can qualify for a wind mitigation report accepted by all Florida insurers. Fort Myers homeowners who qualify often see meaningful reductions in their annual insurance premiums that offset a significant portion of the replacement cost over time.
