Central Florida Roof Replacement
Full replacements with insurance-claim support, photo documentation, and clean transitions. Most replacements done in 1-2 days.
When It's Time for a New Roof
A roof replacement is one of the bigger decisions a Florida homeowner ever makes. Sun State Solar and Roofing makes it as straightforward as possible — owner-led project management from quote through final cleanup, photo updates at every stage, and end-to-end insurance claim handling for storm-related replacements. State-certified (CCC1334700), fully insured, with a verified track record of 50+ permitted projects.
Most asphalt shingle replacements wrap in 1-2 days. Tile and metal run 3-5. You stay in the home throughout. We protect landscaping, lay tarps over plant beds and pool decks, do magnetic nail sweeps around the entire perimeter at the end of each day, and do a final walk-through with you before we leave the property. The reviews customers leave for us — Hank Woodward, Helen S., Kayla B., Martha D. — all consistently call out the photo updates, the cleanup, and the direct communication.
Insurance Claims — End-to-End
If your replacement is storm-related, we handle the entire claim:
- Pre-claim damage documentation with photos
- Adjuster meeting on-site (we attend with you)
- Scope negotiation if the initial offer underestimates the damage
- Supplemental claim filing for items missed in the original scope
- Final invoicing and certificate of completion to close the claim
Florida insurance is uniquely complicated, especially after storms. Several of our customers have specifically thanked us for taking the insurance burden off their shoulders.
