Why your roof is leaking

Florida punishes roofs. The little problems become the big ones fast.

That brown ring on the ceiling. The shingle in the yard after a thunderstorm. The pipe boot crumbling on the inspection report. None of it heals on its own. Salt air corrodes nails, UV bakes sealants brittle, and one hurricane band can lift fasteners just enough to let water in for months before you spot the stain.

The frustrating part is that most leaks are not where the ceiling stain is. Water travels along rafters before it shows up inside. We have walked plenty of roofs after another company pulled shingles in the wrong spot and left the leak going.

Our approach is straightforward. We send a drone up, locate the actual source, and show you the photos. If it can be repaired, we repair it. If you need a full roof replacement instead, we say so and price both. Honest first, sales second.

What's included

What a Coastline roof repair covers

No mystery scope. Here is exactly what every repair visit includes, from the moment we drive up to the moment the warranty kicks in.

How a Coastline repair works

Four steps from leaking ceiling to closed warranty

  1. 01

    Same-day callback

    Call (941) 896-7793 or text a photo to (941) 345-0072. If we cannot answer live, you get a callback the same day. Active leaks get scheduled first.

  2. 02

    Drone leak diagnosis

    We fly the roof and walk the attic when needed. You see exactly where the water is coming in, with photos. No guessing, no guess-and-charge.

  3. 03

    Repair, documented

    The crew makes the repair on the same visit when materials are on the truck, or the next scheduled day for special-order tile or metal. We photograph every step.

  4. 04

    1-year warranty in writing

    You get a written 1-year workmanship warranty plus before-and-after photos for your records. If the repair fails for a workmanship reason, we are back out at no charge.

Pricing

Free roof repair estimates. No trip fee.

Roof repairs vary widely depending on the problem, the roof material, and how far the damage has spread. Small flashing or pipe-boot repairs are typically a few hundred dollars. Larger storm-damage repairs run higher. We do not charge a trip fee or a diagnostic fee, and there is no deposit on repairs. You get a written estimate before any work begins.

Repair vs. replace

When a repair is the right call, and when it is not

The most common question we get on a repair inspection: "Should I fix this or just replace the whole roof?" Florida has a specific rule that drives that answer.

The 25% rule (Florida Building Code Section 706.1.1)

Florida Building Code Section 706.1.1 limits re-roofing repairs: if the work being done affects more than 25% of the roof's total area, the entire roof must be brought up to current code rather than patched in sections. That threshold is why the scope of damage matters as much as its severity. A repair that covers 24% of the deck can stay a repair. At 26%, it becomes a full replacement with current permit requirements.

There is one exception: roofs installed to the enhanced wind-resistance provisions of the 2007 Florida Building Code (post-Hurricane Charley reforms, Senate Bill 2D) can exceed the 25% threshold without triggering a full replacement, provided the existing structure meets current uplift requirements. Florida Building Code Section 706.1.1

Insurance and the 15-year protection rule

Florida Statute 627.7011(5) prohibits insurers from refusing to write or renew a homeowners policy solely because of the age of the roof if the roof is less than 15 years old and has been inspected and found to be in good condition. For roofs 15 years and older, insurers can require a roof condition inspection, but they cannot automatically deny coverage. This statute matters because some adjusters use age as a reason to push toward replacement even when a repair is code-compliant and structurally sound. FL Statute 627.7011(5) via flsenate.gov

Quick decision table

Situation Likely path
Isolated leak, damage under 25% of deck area Repair
Damage over 25% of deck area Full replacement required by FBC
Roof under 15 years, isolated storm hit Repair, document for insurer
Shingles under 15 years old, widespread granule loss Insurance claim, likely replacement
Tile roof, tile intact but leaking at 25+ years Re-underlayment (not full replacement)

We walk through this table on every inspection and give you a written recommendation with photos before you decide anything.

Reviews

What Bradenton homeowners say about our repairs

★★★★★
Josh was very thorough diagnosing a hard-to-find leak on a tile roof, after 2 other roofing companies tried but failed to catch the problem. Great work at a fair price.

FAQ

Common questions about roof repair in Bradenton

Do you fix leaks during the rainy season?

Yes. We respond same-day for active leaks and can tarp the roof to stop water damage while we schedule the permanent repair.

How long is the repair warranty?

1-year workmanship warranty on roof repairs unless otherwise noted in the contract. Manufacturer coverage on materials passes through in full.

How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?

We will not push a replacement when a repair makes sense. After the inspection we show you photos of the problem areas and walk through both options. Repairs are right when damage is isolated. Replacement makes sense when the deck, underlayment, or shingle field is failing across the whole roof. If it is borderline, we tell you that too.

How fast can you respond to a leak?

We answer every call we can, and if we miss it, you get a callback the same day. Active leaks get scheduled ahead of routine work. Emergency tarping is available to stop interior damage while we schedule the full repair.

Are roof repair estimates free?

Yes. Repair estimates are free with no trip fee, no diagnostic fee, and no deposit required. Call (941) 896-7793 or text a photo to (941) 345-0072.

Do you repair tile and metal roofs, or only shingle?

We repair all three. Tile repair, including cracked or slipped concrete and clay tile, is one of our specialties. We also repair standing seam and exposed-fastener metal roofs (rusted screws, popped fasteners, storm-loosened panels).

Will my insurance cover the repair?

It depends on the cause. Storm and hurricane damage is typically covered after your deductible. Wear-and-tear repairs are usually not. We document the damage with timestamped drone photos so you have what you need either way for a claim.

What areas do you cover for roof repairs?

Our primary repair area is Manatee County, South Pinellas, and South Hillsborough: Bradenton, Palmetto, Lakewood Ranch, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Riverview, Brandon, and the surrounding cities. We also cover Sarasota, including barrier island properties — see our dedicated Sarasota roof repair page. See our full service area for the complete list.

Does Florida require a full roof replacement if more than 25% of the roof is damaged?

Yes. Florida Building Code Section 706.1.1 requires that if a re-roofing project affects more than 25% of the total roof area, the entire roof must be brought up to current code rather than patched. That threshold is one of the first things we check on every repair inspection, because it determines whether a repair is code-compliant or whether a full replacement is the correct path.
