What we do
NB Roofs handles asphalt shingle roofs from a single repair to a full tear-off and new roof, for homeowners in The Villages, FL, Leesburg and nearby Central Florida communities.
A shingle roof replacement removes the old roof down to the deck, repairs damaged decking, and installs a new asphalt shingle roof system.
A new shingle roof installation starts with an assessment of your home, style and budget. NB Roofs follows the shingle manufacturer's specifications and the Florida Building Code on every installation.
Shingle roof repair from NB Roofs covers missing shingles, wind damage, flashing problems and roof leaks for homeowners in The Villages and roof repair customers in Leesburg, FL.
Repair or replace
A shingle roof usually needs repair when the damage is limited to a small area, such as a few missing shingles or one leak. A shingle roof usually needs replacement when wear is spread across the roof, the decking is soft, or leaks keep coming back. An on-site roof assessment is the only reliable way to tell.

Shingle options
Architectural shingles are a popular choice for Florida homes because they are thicker than basic three-tab shingles and have a layered, dimensional look. Homeowners in Central Florida can also choose wind-rated, impact-resistant, algae-resistant and lighter-colored shingle lines to suit local weather.
A layered profile that adds depth and curb appeal, with more material per shingle than three-tab styles.
Shingle lines rated for higher winds, installed with the nailing pattern the manufacturer requires for that rating.
Upgraded shingles designed to better handle hail and wind-blown debris during severe storms.
Shingles with granules that help resist the dark streaks humid Florida weather causes on many roofs.
Lighter or reflective shingles absorb less sun, which can help with attic heat in summer.
Compare roof types
Both metal roofs and asphalt shingle roofs work well in Florida, so the better choice depends on budget, the look of the home, and community rules. An asphalt shingle roof usually costs less up front than a metal roof. A metal roof usually costs more up front and has a different look.
| Factor | Asphalt shingle roof | Metal roof |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | Usually lower | Usually higher |
| Look | Many colors and dimensional styles | Panel or standing seam look |
| Repairs | Damaged shingles can often be replaced one area at a time | Repairs usually involve panels, seams or fasteners |
| The Villages approval | Exterior changes are reviewed by the Architectural Review Committee, so check your district's manual for either type | |
NB Roofs installs both. See metal roofing services or tile roofing to compare more options.
Our process
A shingle roof replacement with NB Roofs follows six steps, from the first roof assessment to the final inspection and cleanup.
NB Roofs inspects the roof, attic ventilation and problem areas, then explains whether repair or replacement makes sense.
Before work starts, the crew protects landscaping and the outside of the home.
The old roof comes off down to the deck. Damaged decking is repaired so the new roof has a solid base.
These parts go in as one system, following the manufacturer's specifications.
New shingles go on with the fastening pattern the manufacturer and the Florida Building Code call for.
A final inspection checks the work, and the crew cleans up the site.

Built for Central Florida
Central Florida weather puts a shingle roof through hurricane season winds, strong sun, attic heat, heavy summer rain and high humidity. These conditions make wind-rated shingles, correct nailing, good attic ventilation and sound flashing important for shingle roofs in The Villages and Leesburg.
The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, according to the National Hurricane Center. Wind-rated shingles and correct nailing help a roof stand up to storms.
Strong sun and heat build up in the attic. Good ventilation helps protect shingles and keeps the attic cooler.
Summer downpours test flashing and underlayment, and humidity leads to algae streaks on many roofs.

Questions
A shingle roof's lifespan in Florida depends on the shingle line, attic ventilation, installation quality and storm exposure. Florida heat and humidity are hard on shingles, so ventilation and correct installation matter. Each manufacturer publishes the expected life and warranty for its shingles, and NB Roofs goes over those for the product you choose.

A new shingle roof can affect your home insurance premium in Florida.

Ask your insurance agent, or see the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation wind mitigation resources.
