FAS Exteriors is a GAF-certified roofing company serving Tampa Bay. Tampa roofs take a beating as relentless ultraviolet (UV) radiation, Gulf humidity, summer thunderstorms, and hurricane-season winds all shorten a roof’s lifespan well below the national average. When your roof reaches 15-20 years or shows storm damage, a timely replacement protects everything beneath it.
We replace asphalt shingle, metal, and tile roofs to current Florida Building Code wind-mitigation standards. A new, code-compliant roof can lower your Tampa homeowners’ insurance premium.

Roofing Materials for Tampa Homes
The right roofing material balances budget, durability, and how well it stands up to Florida weather:
- Asphalt roofing—The most popular choice in Tampa, asphalt shingles are known for their affordability, solid wind resistance, and wide range of styles. We install asphalt roofing using premium, manufacturer-spec materials.
- Metal roofing—With a higher upfront cost, but excellent wind resistance, a long lifespan, and reflective properties that cut cooling costs in Tampa’s heat.
- Tile roofing—Favored in many coastal and Mediterranean-style Tampa neighborhoods for its longevity and distinctive look.

Does Your Tampa Roof Need Replacing?
Watch for the following warning signs, especially after storm season:
- Curling, cracked, or missing shingles
- Bald spots where granules have worn away
- Water stains on interior ceilings
- Sagging roofline
- Daylight visible through the roof deck
- Roof age of 15-20 years or more
If you’re experiencing isolated issues with your roof rather than whole-roof wear, you may only need a repair, take a look at our roof repair services in Tampa. When the damage is widespread, replacement is the more cost-effective long-term choice.
What to Expect from Our Tampa Roofing Company
Every roof replacement starts with a thorough inspection of your decking, underlayment, flashing, and ventilation. Our GAF-certified crews then install your new roof following manufacturer specifications and Florida Building Code requirements with proper underlayment, flashing, and ventilation included since those components are what prevent leaks and extend roof life.
Most replacements are completed in one to three days. Your roof’s backed by both manufacturer material warranties and our own workmanship guarantee, with coverage ranging up to lifetime protection depending on the material you choose.
