Brandon Roof Pros provides professional residential roof installation in Brandon, FL for residential and commercial properties across eastern Hillsborough County. There is one thing about Florida roofs that almost nobody gets right on a new build. The sealed roof deck everyone talks about is a retrofit the code imposes when an existing roof is replaced. On brand new construction it is not required in the same way.
That matters, because it makes the sealed deck a choice rather than a line on a checklist, and on a new deck it is the cheapest it will ever be. The method is either taping every sheathing joint with a self-adhering modified bitumen strip, or covering the whole deck with an approved self-adhering cap sheet. The second needs no separate underlayment over it.
One caution on sequence. A deck has to be taped before the underlayment goes down, so the decision belongs to you at framing rather than at the shingle order.
We recommend buying it on new work in Brandon anyway, and the reason is plain. Hillsborough is a wind-borne debris county. If a covering leaves in a storm, what stands between wind-driven rain and your trusses is whatever is stuck to the plywood. A taped deck is a few hundred feet of tape and one afternoon while the sheathing is still clean and bare.
Brandon is unincorporated, so the permit and the inspections run through Hillsborough County rather than a city building department. Every component on that permit carries a Florida Product Approval number: covering, underlayment, drip edge, ridge vent, boots. We list those numbers on the proposal, because a reviewer will ask for them and an owner should be able to read them.
Nothing about ice applies here. The ice barrier section of the Florida residential code is printed as reserved, so a contractor quoting ice and water shield at your eaves is quoting a cold climate product out of habit. What the eave actually needs is a correct metal edge, the right fastener schedule on that edge, and underlayment carried over it in the right order.
If you are buying a house in a new subdivision, the builder has a roofer and a price, and you should not try to change either. Where a call to us is worth your time is an addition, a lanai being enclosed and roofed, a garage conversion, or a deck coming off to bare wood because the sheathing itself is being replaced.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — self-adhered polymer-modified bitumen deck seam tape, ASTM D226 Type II No. 30 felt underlayment, plastic cap-nailed synthetic underlayment, 8d ring-shank deck re-nailing, six-nail architectural shingle fastening, 26-gauge aluminum drip edge and rake metal — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Brandon and nearby communities including Valrico, Bloomingdale, Seffner, Riverview.

Materials, equipment and how we do residential roof installation
The difference between residential roof installation that lasts and residential roof installation that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with self-adhered polymer-modified bitumen deck seam tape, ASTM D226 Type II No. 30 felt underlayment, plastic cap-nailed synthetic underlayment, 8d ring-shank deck re-nailing, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Brandon job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in eastern Hillsborough County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Brandon Chooses Brandon Roof Pros
- ✓Permit history comes out of Hillsborough County before we quote, because the date on that record sets the scope and not only the price.
- ✓Tile fields are relaid over new underlayment wherever the concrete is sound, since out here the tile outlasts what sits under it by decades.
- ✓Remaining life is written in years with a date to re-inspect, so an underwriter, an adjuster or a buyer's agent can actually use the report.
- ✓We will not put a pressure washer on a shingle roof, and where the streaking is purely cosmetic we say so instead of quoting it.
