Tile or shingle, every roof gets looked at before anyone recommends a thing (727) 607-3963
Shingle and tile, each cared for its own way
Dried-out asphalt shingles get a plant-oil treatment. Tile, whether concrete or clay, is washed and then given a clear sealer. Either way, someone looks at your roof first and tells you what it needs before anything is booked.
(727) 607-3963 · Talk your roof over with usBoth are common here, and treating them alike is how a roof ends up with the wrong service. This is how we split the work.
Year after year of strong sun draws the natural oils from asphalt, and the shingles turn stiff and begin dropping granules. A rejuvenation treatment soaks back into that binder, so the shingles flex again and hang on to the granules they still have.
Oil has nothing to work on in tile, because tile never had asphalt to lose. Tile needs a careful clean to clear stains and growth, then a clear coat that cuts down the rain the surface drinks in.
Hardly any roof needs all eight. The look we take at the start shows which two or three make sense for yours.
Plant-based oil sprayed onto baked, brittle shingles to return their give and slow the loss of granules.
What it involves
An on-roof look at flexibility, granules, flashing and growth that ends in a clear treat, repair or leave-it answer.
What it involves
The small pre-treatment fixes: popped nails, tired flashing, loose vents and boots, and any shingles that have lifted or gone missing.
What it involves
Low-pressure washing that clears black streaks, moss and grime without scouring granules off shingles or etching tile.
What it involves
Scheduled check-ups and repeat treatment or sealing, timed by how your roof is wearing rather than a fixed calendar.
What it involves
Treatment, washing and sealing programs for condo rows, HOA communities, churches and light-commercial roofs.
What it involves
A clear read on an older roof before listing or after an inspection report, with treatment or sealing where it fits.
What it involves
Stained, algae-dark tile washed gently, dried and finished with a breathable clear sealer.
What it involvesShingle gets treated, tile gets sealed, and neither gets a product made for the other. If part of the house has a roof type we do not work on, we say so at the visit and leave it alone.
Gutters, flower beds, screen enclosures and cars are covered or moved before anything is sprayed or washed. On the roof we wear soft soles and only walk where the job takes us.
A treatment brings back flexibility; it does not close a leak. A sealer slows water uptake; it does not mend a broken tile. You hear those limits before you book, not after the work.
Call us and you reach someone who knows how your job was planned. Once the work is done, we check in again after the first heavy rain has come through.
Describe the problem that caught your eye, give us a rough age for the roof and say if it is shingle or tile. We then agree a day for the visit.
On the roof we check how shingles bend or how the tile is wearing, along with flashing, vents and any growth. You hear which services fit and what they cost.
When you give the go-ahead, we book a day with a dry forecast, protect the yard and gutters, and carry out only the agreed work.
Short answers here. The longer version is one phone call away.
The oil treatment works by soaking into the asphalt inside a shingle. Tile, concrete or clay, contains nothing of that kind to revive, so the right care for tile is a thorough clean followed by a clear sealer. We do both, and we will tell you which one applies to each part of your roof.
We cover plants, rinse surfaces near the work and keep runoff away from the pool and lanai. Pets are happiest indoors while we work and for a short while afterward. Ask on the call and we will walk you through the products we use.
That depends on the roof and how much sun it takes. Treated shingles and sealed tile both get checked again after a few years. A maintenance plan times the next visit by how your roof is actually wearing rather than by the calendar.
Sometimes. If the roof is sound but looks tired, cleaning and treatment can help it read better to a buyer's inspector. If it has real problems, we say so plainly so you can plan around them. Our page on roofs and home sales covers both sides.
Treated shingles want several rain-free hours while the oil works in, and sealer will only bond to tile that is fully dry. We schedule around the forecast and would rather move the date than work into a storm.
Yes, on shingle and tile buildings alike. Work can be phased building by building, and we coordinate with the board or manager so residents know what is happening. See commercial and HOA roofs for more.
It is a small share of a full replacement, because nothing is torn off and nothing heads to the landfill. The real figure depends on the roof's size and pitch and on what needs doing first, and you get it before any work is booked.
Describe what you see from the driveway. A couple of questions on the phone, then we come and take a proper look.
We cover Clearwater from the beach to Countryside, plus the neighboring towns from Palm Harbor down to Belleair. Keeping the route compact lets us book around the weather without long waits.
See every area we coverWe are a small Clearwater roof-care team with one aim: keeping sound roofs in service longer. For shingle roofs that means washing, small fixes and treatment. For tile it means cleaning and sealing.
We would rather tell you a roof does not need us than sell it a service it cannot use.
