Four Types of Roofs for Florida Businesses & Homes

Choosing the right material for your Florida roof replacement is an essential part of the project. The type of roof you opt for will play a large role in your property’s appearance, curb appeal, comfort, and safety. This is especially important for businesses and homeowners in Florida, as the extreme heat necessitates a durable roofing material that can provide a barrier against the sun and elements.

At Allstate Construction Roofing Inc., we offer a variety of roofing options, all made of the highest-quality materials. However, each type offers its own distinct benefits. By selecting the right roof for your specific needs, you can ensure that your roof helps keep your property comfortable and safe.

Asphalt Shingle Roofs

Perhaps the most popular choice for roofing material is asphalt shingles. This is a fairly inexpensive material that is easy to install and repair. With a wide range of style and color options available, you are sure to be able to find beautiful asphalt shingles that complement your property’s exterior.

Tile Roofs

Concrete tile roof options provide both beauty and durability, and tile roofs are a common choice in Florida due to the aesthetic they provide. A high-quality concrete tile roof can last a lifetime and is highly resistant to thermal transfer and sound. With a variety of versatile shapes, colors, and styles, tile roofs can make a dramatic impact on your curb appeal and can even guard your property against fire.

Metal Roofs

For business owners or homeowners looking for a highly durable roofing option, a metal roof is a popular choice. These roofs effectively protect against rain, wind, and fire damage. In addition, these roofs tend to be easy to repair and relatively inexpensive to install.

Flat Roofs: Built-Up & TPO

A flat roof

Flat roofs are exactly as they sound — they are a roof structure with no slope. Made of solid boards, slats, or other water-resistant materials, they are a popular option for commercial buildings. They are easy to maintain, cost-effective, and energy-efficient. However, because the root height is the same across the building, these roofs can have drainage challenges, which, in turn, can lead to leaks. For this reason, they are often paired with additional protection like gutters.

When selecting a roof for your commercial property, we often recommend either a built-up or TPO roof. A built-up roof (BUR) is a multi-layered roofing system that consists of a base sheet, fiber sheets, and bitumen layers. These flat roofs are water- and fire-resistant and offer both a long lifespan and energy efficiency.

A TPO roof, on the other hand, is a single-ply product that offers excellent durability and heat resistance. The benefits of the two roofs are similar. However, a BUR is going to be a more expensive option, while TPO will require more ongoing maintenance.
