Orlando roofs take a beating from the humid subtropical climate with frequent afternoon thunderstorms. Wind-driven rain pushes water under shingles on older homes in College Park and Mills 50. We check for failed flashing around chimneys and vents first because that is where leaks start after heavy storms. Cheap crews often skip proper underlayment replacement and just slap on new shingles, which fails the next big rain.
Orange County requires permits for any roof work tied to an insurance claim. We pull those permits and schedule the final inspection so the job closes out clean. Common failure points include rotted decking around skylights on houses in Thornton Park and Ivanhoe Village. We replace bad plywood sections with CDX rated material instead of patching over soft spots like some outfits do.
Adjusters look for hail or wind damage patterns on asphalt shingles and metal panels. We mark every dent and lifted tab with photos and measurements before the adjuster arrives. Homeowners in Winter Park and Baldwin Park often get lowballed offers because the first inspection missed hidden water intrusion in the attic. We bring a moisture meter and open up suspect areas to show the full extent.
Common Claim Mistakes
Homeowners wait too long after a storm and miss the filing window. We document everything the same day we get the call so the timeline stays solid.
