Roof Replacement in Orlando

A roof replacement in Orlando is one of the biggest checks most homeowners ever write on their house, which is exactly why the estimate should come from the person who will be standing on the roof. At Burnes Roofing Company, LLC, Tommy Burnes walks the roof himself, tells you plainly whether it actually needs replacing, and runs the crew on tear-off day.

No commissioned salesperson, no pressure script. If the roof has years left, he says so. When it genuinely is time, you get a written quote that covers the whole job, and a 5-year workmanship warranty behind it.

How you know it is time

  • Leaks that keep coming back in different places
  • Shingles shedding granules across the whole roof, not just one slope
  • Widespread curling, cracking or bald spots
  • Decking that feels soft underfoot or sags between rafters
  • A roof age past 20 years with repairs stacking up

One symptom on its own is often just a roof repair. It is the pattern that tells the story, and the inspection photos will show you which situation you have.

What a replacement involves

  1. Inspection and quote. Roof and attic, photographed, with a written scope covering tear-off, materials, disposal and cleanup.
  2. Permit and scheduling. We pull the permit, order materials, and set a start date with the weather in mind.
  3. Tear-off and deck check. The old roof comes off and the decking gets inspected board by board. Bad wood gets replaced, not covered over.
  4. Dry-in and install. Underlayment goes down the same day the deck is exposed, then the new roof system on top of it.
  5. Cleanup and final inspection. A nail sweep of the yard, debris hauled off, county inspection passed, photos in your hands.

The one honest unknown in any re-roof is the decking, because nobody can see it until the old roof is off. What we can promise is how it gets handled: you see photos of any bad wood before it is replaced, and the price for it is set in writing up front, not invented on the day.

Roof systems we install

Most Orlando re-roofs are architectural asphalt shingle, and that is the core of our work. We also replace and install tile roofs, TPO flat sections, and metal roofing for homeowners who want the longer service life. Tommy walks you through the real tradeoffs of each on your specific house, in plain numbers.

Underlayment and your wind mitigation report

What goes under the shingles matters as much as the shingles. A peel-and-stick underlayment bonds to the deck and counts as a secondary water resistance layer on a Florida wind mitigation report, which can affect what some homeowners pay for insurance. Tommy will walk you through the option on your estimate; whether it pencils out for your policy is a conversation for your insurance agent, and we do not promise savings we cannot control.

Roof replacement questions, answered

Size, pitch, material and decking condition set the price, so two houses on the same street can land in different places. That is why we do not quote roofs sight unseen. After the inspection you get the whole scope in writing, tear-off through cleanup, before any work begins. The estimate is free, and the number on it is the number.

Many single-family re-roofs finish in a few days once the work starts. Florida weather has a vote, so we build the schedule around the forecast, keep the deck dried-in at the end of every workday, and tell you early if a storm moves the timeline.

You hear about it instantly, not at the final bill. Bad wood gets photographed, you see it, and it gets replaced before the new roof goes on, at the per-sheet decking price already written on your proposal, so the number is never invented on your driveway. Often the first couple of sheets are included at no charge. Rotten decking under a new roof is a leak with a countdown on it, so covering it over is not something we do.

Yes. You pick the shingle line and color before materials are ordered, and Tommy walks the options with you against your exterior before anything is locked in. Upgrades like thicker architectural shingles or peel-and-stick underlayment are priced as line items so you can decide each one on its own.
