Different roofing materials require specialized repair techniques to ensure long-term durability and protection. Whether your home has a shingle, tile, or flat roofing system, The Roof Guys have the expertise to address damage effectively and prevent further issues.
Asphalt shingle roofs are designed to provide durable protection, but over time, exposure to harsh weather conditions and natural aging can take a toll. Shingles may become brittle, crack, or curl, leaving your home vulnerable to leaks. Missing or damaged shingles expose the roof deck to moisture, increasing the risk of water infiltration and structural damage. Another common issue is flashing failure, where improperly sealed or deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys allows water to seep beneath the shingles. If left unaddressed, these problems can escalate into significant roof leaks and interior damage. Our team can assess the condition of your shingles, replace damaged sections, and reinforce weak points to restore your roof’s integrity.
Tile and slate roofs are known for their longevity and aesthetic appeal, but they are not immune to damage. Over time, tiles can crack or become loose due to impacts from falling debris or harsh weather. Even a small crack in a tile can allow water to seep underneath, leading to moisture buildup and eventual leaks. The underlayment beneath the tiles, which serves as a waterproof barrier, can also deteriorate with age, making it less effective at preventing water penetration. Flashing around roof penetrations such as chimneys, skylights, and walls must be correctly installed and maintained, as improper flashing can lead to leaks even if the tiles themselves are intact. Our roofing specialists carefully inspect your tile roof, replace broken tiles, and ensure that the underlayment and flashing are secure to maintain optimal performance.
Flat and low-slope roofing systems require a different approach to repair due to their unique structure and drainage requirements.
Materials such as EPDM, TPO, or modified bitumen provide waterproofing, but can sustain damage from wear and tear over time. Punctures or tears in the membrane, often caused by falling branches, foot traffic, or aging materials, create openings for water to penetrate.
Standing water, also known as ponding, is another common issue for flat roofs. Prolonged exposure to pooled water can weaken the membrane and lead to leaks. Improperly sealed seams or deteriorating adhesives can result in gaps where moisture infiltrates the roof system.
The Roof Guys specialize in diagnosing and repairing flat roof problems, using high-quality materials and professional techniques to reinforce weak areas, patch damaged sections, and improve water drainage to extend the life of your roofing system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. We offer flexible financing through Service Finance, including no-interest and deferred-interest plans for qualified homeowners.
Your roof’s age is a good indicator of whether it needs replacing. If it is more than 10 years old, you should consider making the upgrade.
Aside from age, there are many signs that a replacement is in order. From the inside, you can check your attic for sunlight leaks or wood rot, which are common signs of damage. If you have any water stains on your ceiling, you most likely have a roof leak.
Outside indicators include:
You may only need minor repairs for these issues, however, if you have multiple problems or concerns, it is most likely that you will need a complete roof repair.
Because gutters cover portions of the roof, they should be removed before the replacement process. Your contractor needs to be able to see any damage around the gutter area, especially since this is where the water pools during a storm.
People will often elect to replace the gutters when they replace the roof, but this is not a necessity in all cases. To replace the roof, workers will need to get under the gutters anyways, so it makes sense to remove that obstacle before the rest of the roof has been replaced. Plus, if the gutters are removed first, you will not risk having them damaged while the new roof is being installed.
The roof should be replaced before siding. It typically makes more sense to replace the roof first because it has a bigger impact on the rest of the house.
An ineffective roof can cause damage to all other areas of the home. From leaks in the ceiling to wood rot on the siding, old roofs create more problems than old siding. If you replace the roof first, you will ensure that it can protect any new siding that gets installed.
Plus, you will have taken a top-down approach to improving the efficiency and safety of your home. This ensures that your home is protected from the brunt of the elements while any other projects are happening.
Roofers should not work in rainy conditions for multiple reasons:
If a roofer is in the middle of an installment and it starts to rain, they can continue working if the rainfall is light enough not to disrupt work or cause any of the problems mentioned earlier. In most cases, the contractor will end work for the day and schedule a time to come by and finish the project.
Plus, you will have taken a top-down approach to improving the efficiency and safety of your home. This ensures that your home is protected from the brunt of the elements while any other projects are happening.
Usually, the answer is no—roofers do not technically need to come inside during an inspection. However, if you have a leak or notice water damage on the ceiling, your contractor might be interested in examining it. As a responsible homeowner, you should make sure that your contractor performs a thorough inspection before they decide how to proceed.
Overall, lack of indoor access will not prevent the roofers from getting the work itself done. In fact, during the actual roof replacement, roofers should have no need to enter the home. The project plan should be laid out already and the work is done strictly from the outside.
For most homes in Florida, silicone roof coatings are the top choice. They offer long-lasting waterproof protection, superior UV resistance, and excellent performance on flat and metal roofs.
A professionally applied silicone roof coating can last 10 to 20 years, depending on the thickness applied and ongoing maintenance.
Yes, if your roof is still structurally sound. Silicone coatings are a cost-effective alternative to roof replacement for surfaces that have aged but aren’t severely damaged.
Yes. Silicone coatings are highly reflective, which can lower attic temperatures and reduce cooling costs, especially in sunny climates like Central Florida.
Absolutely. Silicone roof coatings form a seamless membrane that seals leaks and prevents new ones, even in areas with ponding water.
Yes. They’re ideal for metal roofs, including those on mobile homes or patio structures, because they bond well and resist rust and thermal movement.
After cleaning and prepping the surface, the coating is applied in one or two passes. Most jobs are completed in a single day, depending on roof size.
The roof includes three layers of protection from the elements. The base layer is made of wooden boards called a roof decking. On top of that is the felt underlayment followed by the actual shingles.
Drip edges, the metal lip on the edge that directs water away from the roof, is replaced every time the roof itself is replaced. Other protective components include:
A roof replacement may also include swapping for new roof vents or pipe boots. Replacement of these components primarily depends on their past exposure to the elements.
Yes. Our silicone roof systems come with manufacturer warranties, and our installation is backed by our own service guarantee.

Garage fans actually save more energy that you might think! Garage fans work by bringing cooler air into the garage from the outside using vents. When this air is brought into the garage, there is no need to use additional fans or air conditioning systems that utilize an abundance of energy.
At the same time, a garage fan eliminates heat-build up that can be extremely difficult to dissipate and often overworks cooling systems causing them to perform inefficiently.
Finally, a garage fan saves energy by giving you complete control of your system. Whether you need to save energy or save on your electric bill, you always have the option to turn the system down or off, depending on your needs and preferences. Contact us today and we’ll show you how it works!
Absolutely! Not to worry – your garage fan will stay quieter than most air conditioning systems and other fan options thanks to its Patented Quiet Hush Mount Design and insulated ducting. You can also decrease the volume simply by adjusting the thermostat to turn the system down. Our team will happily show you how to make these adjustments to ensure that the operation stays quiet even as your system ages.
If your garage fan does ever begin making loud noises or becomes loud enough to be disruptive, this is a red flag and you should address this quickly. Excessively loud noise usually indicates something is wrong with the fan or that it needs a thorough cleaning. Regardless, give us a call and we’ll get it working like new!
Garage fans are extremely easy to clean. Unlike other fans, they do not have as many small parts that can catch and collect dust and debris. They are also made with an easily removable and dishwasher-safe intake grill for quick, easy cleaning. No need to spend hours cleaning your fan, we like to keep it simple!
Be sure to clean your fan on a regular basis, as dust build-up can inhibit performance and cause issues in the long run. This is especially true if you create a lot of dust, smoke, or debris within your garage due to your daily activities. Usually a good, thorough cleaning at the beginning of each season is enough to keep everything in working order. If you need help, we’re just a phone call away!
You sure can! It’s easy to change the temperature in your garage using the fan system and an adjustable thermostat. Before our team leaves your property, we will show you exactly how to work your system, so you can benefit from the best possible performance. There are also online guides available, so you will be able to reference them when needed as well as provide them to future owners when you sell your property.
These systems are very user-friendly and shouldn’t require much maintenance at all. However, if you do have a problem, our team is happy to come pay you a visit. We’ll evaluate the issue and demo the system’s capabilities again if necessary.
We offer different sized fan options to fit in garages of any size. Whether you want a bigger fan to completely eliminate the hot air in your garage or you need something on the smaller size, we can accommodate your needs. We can also assist you in selecting an installation location for optimal performance.
Remember, these fans are designed to be extremely efficient, so size is not a prime factor when it comes to productivity. This simple installation also doesn’t require much cutting or destruction – so it’s a no-mess, no-fuss endeavor! Contact our specialists today to find out what fits your garage best.
Our fans are Fire Rated and made up of UL Listed Components. All fans and accessories we offer come built with high-quality materials specifically designed to withstand hazardous conditions. Instances with extremely hazardous conditions may cause damage, but not to worry! Our team can help repair any damage and get your system back in working order quickly.
All our garage fans have a 10-year product warranty with 5 years on the motor. At The Solar Guys, we always stand behind our products!

The FORTIFIED Roof™ program was developed by the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety (IBHS). Its goal is simple: help homeowners keep their roofs intact during severe weather events.
A FORTIFIED Roof strengthens key areas that are most vulnerable to wind and water intrusion. It reinforces the deck attachment, upgrades edge protection, and uses sealed roof decks to reduce the risk of rainwater entering your home, even if your shingles are damaged or torn off.
In short, it’s a smarter roofing system. And now, it’s available to you through The Roof Guys.
Central Florida homeowners face unique challenges. Frequent storms and soaring wind speeds can test even a brand-new roof. But a FORTIFIED Roof isn’t a typical roof. It’s designed to reduce storm-related damage from wind, rain, and hurricanes.
Here’s why more Florida homeowners are asking for FORTIFIED:
FORTIFIED Roofs are lab-tested and real-world proven. They’ve withstood hurricane-force winds and helped families stay safe during the most violent storms. The upgrades required by the program specifically address failure points identified after thousands of post-storm damage investigations.
Many insurance companies in Florida now recognize FORTIFIED construction as a reason to offer discounted homeowners insurance. Some even require it for new coverage in high-risk zones. When your home has a FORTIFIED Roof certification, it’s more insurable.
A FORTIFIED Roof can be an investment in your home’s future value. It shows potential buyers that the roof is newer, stronger, and built to a nationally recognized performance standard.
No one can control the weather. But with a FORTIFIED Roof installed by The Roof Guys, you’ll know your home has the best possible defense against it.
A FORTIFIED Roof follows a detailed framework for every component of the roofing system. From the decking and fasteners to the underlayment and flashing, this system is designed, tested, and verified to meet or exceed the IBHS standard.

The lifespan of a roof actually depends on the materials used to create the roofing system you have in place. These following roofs all offer different benefits and vary in durability:
Asphalt Roll- This type of roof is actually made up of rolls of the same material that composes single asphalt shingles. Since it’s in the form of a roll, it’s easier to install and can last up to five to ten years.
Asphalt Single Shingle- These shingles feature a fiberglass or organic base that’s combined with asphalt. Organic asphalt shingles are covered with pieces of quartz, ceramic, or even slate. This popular roofing material is slated to last about 15 to 40 years.
Clay or Cement Tile- These are both extremely strong and durable materials that are made to last for several years. Though they require special installation, these materials are worth it as the roof can last up to 100 years or more.
Wood Shingle- Created from natural wood such as pine or cedar, there’s a natural and woodsy element added to your home when selecting this option. Wood shingles can last up to 30 years or longer depending on the type of climate the house is exposed to.

Fascia is a band of trim that runs along the edge of a roof, typically at the eaves. It is usually made of wood, vinyl, aluminum, or composite materials and is used to cover the end of rafters or trusses and hide the edges of the roof decking. It also helps to protect the underlying structure from the elements.
Even your skylight will need to be replaced at some point. A skylight is a beautiful addition to any home, so don’t neglect it when you notice these signs:
A damaged or old skylight should be treated with the same care as an old roof. Don’t ignore these signs, or they result in future potential problems.

Solar Star® Attic Fans are designed to optimize your home’s ventilation by preventing heat buildup and moisture accumulation in your attic. Powered by solar energy, these fans are:
The Federal Tax Credit for Residential Solar Energy was a government incentive that allowed homeowners to claim a percentage of the cost of eligible solar-powered products—such as solar attic fans, solar garage fans, and certain tubular skylights—on their federal income taxes.
For qualifying products installed and operational before December 31, 2025, homeowners could receive a tax credit equal to 30% of the total cost (including product and installation). This credit directly reduced the amount of federal tax owed, making it easier and more affordable to invest in energy-efficient, solar-powered home improvements.
Important: The federal solar tax credit for these products expired on December 31, 2025. Only installations completed before this date are eligible to claim the credit.
If you have questions about past eligibility or need documentation, consult your tax advisor.
To claim the federal tax credit for your Solar Star® Attic Fan, be sure to meet the following criteria. Please note: The federal solar tax credit for solar-powered attic fans expired on December 31, 2025. Only products installed and operational before this date are eligible.

R-Value is a measure of heat absorption (slowing the heat). Radiant Barrier is measured in reflectivity (blocking the heat).
Typically, a modern-day cell phone won’t be affected by radiant barrier. First, our products are not made with copper or tin which block cell signals. Second, Radiant Barrier only covers the roof portion of the house. The signal goes from your phone to the cell tower in a straight line, generally never even going through the Radiant Barrier in the attic.
Just like wrapping a baked potato in aluminum foil keeps it warm longer by holding in the heat, covering your attic insulation with Radiant Barrier holds the heat in the house. Another analogy would be that in winter Radiant Barrier works just like a space blanket which, although very thin and lightweight, holds in your body heat. A thin space blanket can keep you warmer than several heavy blankets.
Like a space suit, Radiant Barrier reflects the sun’s heat before it can warm up the insulation in your attic. When the insulation stays cooler, your house will too. Just like a space suit or Thermos bottle, the reflective surface inhibits radiant heat transfer. If the bottle starts out hot, it stays hot because very little heat is transferred to the cooler outside. If it starts out cold, it stays cold because very little heat is transferred from the warmer outside.
For the Apollo program, NASA helped develop a thin aluminum metalized film that reflected 95% of the radiant heat. A metalized film was used to protect spacecraft, equipment, and astronauts from thermal radiation or to retain heat in the extreme temperature fluctuations of space. The aluminum was vacuum-coated to a thin film and applied to the base of the Apollo landing vehicles. It was also used in numerous other NASA projects like the James Webb Space Telescope and Skylab. In the vacuum of space where temperatures can range from 250°F above to 400°F below zero and heat transfer is only by radiation. Radiant barrier is a Space Foundation Certified Space Technology(TM). Radiant barrier was inducted into the Space Technology Hall of Fame in 1996.
