Shingle Roofing

The most affordable new roof — done to a wind-rated standard

Asphalt shingle is the most budget-friendly roof you can put on, and today’s architectural (dimensional) shingles are a long way from the flat 3-tab roofs people picture. Installed correctly, they carry high wind ratings and hold up well through Florida storm season.

The catch with shingle is that it’s only as good as the install — the nailing pattern, the starter and cap course, the underlayment, and the flashing all have to be right, or wind finds the weak spot. We install to the manufacturer’s high-wind spec so the warranty and the roof both stand.

Why Choose Hunter

Easiest on the budget

Shingle is the most affordable roofing material, which makes it a smart pick for a rental, a first roof, or matching an HOA’s required look without overspending.

Wind-rated when installed right

Modern architectural shingles carry strong wind ratings — but only if they’re nailed and detailed to spec. We install to the high-wind standard so the rating actually means something.

Fast and clean

Shingle goes on faster than tile or metal, so most homes are done in a few days with less disruption — and we leave the yard cleaner than we found it.

Our Simple Process

Three steps from tear-off to a wind-rated new roof.

1

Tear off & inspect

We strip the old shingles down to the deck, check for soft or rotten wood, and replace what needs it before we build back.

2

Underlayment & flashing

We install underlayment and detail the valleys, edges, and penetrations, then set a proper starter course — the parts that keep wind and water out.

3

Shingle to high-wind spec

We install your architectural shingles with the nailing pattern and cap detail the wind rating requires, so the roof and the warranty both hold.

Asked
Questions

How long does a shingle roof last in Florida?
An architectural asphalt shingle roof typically lasts around 20 to 30 years here, depending on the product and how much sun and weather it takes. It’s a shorter life than tile or metal, in exchange for a lower upfront cost.
Are shingle roofs strong enough for hurricane winds?
Modern architectural shingles carry high wind ratings — but the rating only holds if they’re installed to the manufacturer’s high-wind spec, with the right nailing pattern and detailing. That install is where we don’t cut corners.
What’s the difference between architectural and 3-tab shingles?
3-tab is the old flat, uniform shingle. Architectural (or dimensional) shingles are thicker, layered, and carry higher wind ratings and a longer life. We install architectural shingles for almost every home.
Is shingle cheaper than tile or metal?
Yes — shingle is the most affordable of the three to install. Tile and metal cost more upfront but last longer, so the right choice depends on your budget and how long you plan to be in the home. We’ll lay out the trade-offs.
How long does a shingle roof take to install?
Most homes are done in a few days, weather permitting — faster than tile or metal. We’ll give you a realistic window up front.
Can I put a new shingle roof over the old one?
We don’t recommend it. Roofing over old shingles hides the condition of the deck and shortens the life of the new roof. We tear off to the deck so we can check the wood and start clean.
