Years of harsh weather and numerous hurricane seasons had left this 3,800-square-foot roof hanging by a thread. If our A.O. Roofing team and the city’s CRA Home Rehab and Repair Grant program had not stepped in, this Haines City homeowner would have faced a critical situation for their aging block home.
Rippling Across the Roof
Near the front of the house, one side of the roof showed ripples across the structure. This indicated the old plywood sheets beneath the shingles had been deteriorating for years, causing noticeable ridge-to-eave dips. Finding this additional damage raised serious concerns about the roof’s ability to protect the home and its occupants during Florida’s stormy weather season.
BEFORE
Roof Replacement Needed Immediately
Delaying roof replacement in Florida’s unpredictable climate only causes more problems when postponed. It starts with missing 3-tab shingles, then water leaks, followed by mold growth, and eventually structural damage. In its current state, the roof threatens home safety and significantly reduces the property’s value. With visible damage and no insurance coverage, the homeowner could have faced rising repair costs if it were not for the Haines City CRA’s quick response.
Solution With Expert Installation
Based on the structural design, the home’s overall appearance was taken to the next level with Atlas architectural shingles in Copper Canyon. To improve moisture protection, we installed the Summit® 60 premium synthetic underlayment. These materials combined are designed to perform, protect, and last for many years. Best of all, the installation was completed in just one day and is backed by a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty.
AFTER
Modern Look, Durable Finish, and CRA-Backed
Now completed, the roof shows how updated materials and community programs work together so both homeowners and neighborhoods benefit. By only using high-quality products and an efficient installation process, our team provided durable protection that also enhanced the home’s aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, the CRA program did not just help restore this roof; it contributed to preserving the neighborhood, one home at a time.
