Roof repair
For a leak, a stain that grows after rain, or a few shingles or tiles out of place on a roof that still has years left.
Most repairs are at the flashing, a pipe boot, a valley or a lifted course of shingles. The page covers where leaks usually start on each roof type, when a small repair needs a permit, and what the repair quote should spell out.

Not sure which one you need?
Start with what you can see. Water inside means repair, and today if it’s still raining. Damage right after a storm means storm damage, because the insurance steps come first. A roof that’s just old, with nothing leaking, is a question about replacement or a certification for the insurer. The repair or replace guide walks through the middle cases.
Or call (813) 555-0100Questions before you call
Is it a repair or a replacement?
Age and extent decide most of it. A leak on a roof with years left is usually a repair. Widespread granule loss, curling, soft decking or an insurer refusing the roof push it toward replacement. In Florida, a big repair on a roof older than the 2007 code can also trigger a full code upgrade.
Do I call for an inspection or a repair?
If water is getting in, ask for the repair and the roofer will inspect as part of it. If nothing is leaking and someone (an insurer, lender or buyer) wants paperwork, ask for the specific form they named. The roof inspection page lists them.
What if I don’t know what kind of roof I have?
Say what it looks like from the street: flat strips, curved or flat tiles, metal panels, or a flat roof on part of the house. The roofer confirms it on site. The permit record for the address often shows the roof type and the year it went on.
