Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Fort Myers - Free Roof Inspection, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Fort Myers

Roof replacement in Fort Myers runs $9,800 to $28,500 for most single-family homes, and the material you choose drives that number more than anything else. Asphalt shingle is the budget-friendly workhorse, tile handles the Florida sun and salt air beautifully, and standing seam metal shrugs off hurricane season year after year. Since 2011, Winslow Windows & Doors has installed all three across Lee County, and we know which product makes sense for a 1962 McGregor corridor ranch versus a newer gated-community build off Daniels Parkway. Call (239) 453-7751 for a free in-home roof evaluation, and we’ll give you a written line-item quote with no change orders later.

Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Fort Myers’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company

Ed Winslow put his name on this business, and that shapes how our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing crew works in Fort Myers. We’re the company homeowners call after a bad experience with a faceless national outfit: someone who answered the phone, showed up when they said they would, and wrote the price down before the first nail went in. That reputation matters in a town that just lived through Hurricane Ian. Fort Myers homeowners are not buying a roof from a call center. They want a neighbor who answers at 2 a.m. and actually sends a real person.

Every technician who steps onto a Fort Myers roof is background-checked and arrives in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before the truck parks. Calls ring to a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops. No next-business-day callbacks. And every job, from a small repair in Dunbar to a full tile roof on a waterfront Caloosahatchee estate, carries the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s a century-long standard, and Ed’s name is on the door, so it actually means something.

We’re locally owned with a published address and license number. You can look us up. You can find us on the map. You can hold us accountable, which is exactly how it should be when you’re spending five figures on a roof that has to survive the next Ian.

Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Fort Myers

Asphalt Shingle Roof Installation

In Fort Myers, architectural shingles dominate the re-roof market for good reason. They handle the intense UV load, cost less up front than tile or metal, and when a hurricane peels a few tabs off, you can replace individual shingles without disturbing the whole field. We install dimensional shingles rated for high-wind zones across Fort Myers neighborhoods from Dunbar to the Six Mile Cypress corridor. You get a roof that meets current Lee County wind codes without the premium price of a tile profile.

Concrete and Clay Tile Roofing

Tile roofs are everywhere in Fort Myers, especially along McGregor Boulevard and the older estates near the river. They look like old Florida because they are old Florida. A properly flashed tile roof with correct underlayment handles salt air and UV better than any other system. But the underlayment is the real roof on a tile job, and we see plenty of older Fort Myers homes where the tile looks fine but the felt underneath gave up years ago. We tear off to the deck, replace the underlayment with modern synthetic, reset or replace tile as needed, and leave you with a roof that sheds water through the next decade of summer downpours.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing

Metal makes sense in Fort Myers if you plan to stay in the home a long time. It laughs at the salt-laden air that corrodes aluminum frames along the Caloosahatchee corridor, and it carries a higher wind rating than nearly anything else on the market. Standing seam lasts 40 to 60 years here, where asphalt might need replacement in 18 to 22. The up front cost runs higher, usually $14 to $22 per square foot installed, but you’ll likely never buy another roof. Fort Myers homeowners near the water understand this math instinctively. The salt air eats everything; metal holds up.

Roof Repair and Storm Damage Response

After a storm rolls through Fort Myers, roofs tell the truth. Lifted ridge caps, missing shingles, cracked tile, and flashing that pulled away from the chimney all need attention before the afternoon thunderstorms find the gaps. We do repair work, not just replacement. If your roof is leaking near an exhaust vent or a valley, we’ll find it and fix it with a written quote before you commit. Small repairs keep small leaks from becoming ceiling collapse.

Trusted Brands We Service in Fort Myers

We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and ViewLux, which means our Fort Myers customers get real manufacturer warranties backed by companies that stand behind their products. If you have an existing PGT roof or a CGI opening on your home, we service it correctly, because we’re trained on the exact systems we install. We stock common flashings, underlayment, and fasteners for these brands locally, so Fort Myers repair jobs move faster without waiting on a distributor out of Tampa.

Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Fort Myers Homes

• Salt air corrosion. The Caloosahatchee River funnels Gulf salt deep into Fort Myers, and metal flashing, fasteners, and edge details corrode faster than manufacturer ratings assume. We routinely replace rusted-through drip edge on homes three miles from open water.
• Failed tile underlayment. The tile looks perfect, but the felt underneath is disintegrating. Homes built before modern synthetic underlayment became common in the late 1990s hide leaks behind stucco that only show up after a sustained rain.
• Nail pops and lifted shingles. The boom-and-bust humidity cycle in Fort Myers works nails loose over time. Combined with afternoon thunderstorm wind gusts, you get shingle tabs that flap and eventually tear free.
• Jalousie-era roof framing mismatches. Homes that still carry their original 1950s and 60s openings often have roof structures that were designed around lighter materials. When we install tile on an older Fort Myers ranch, we verify the truss load capacity first. Adding 600 pounds of concrete tile to a roof never designed for it is exactly the kind of mistake a rushed crew makes.

Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Fort Myers, FL

What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Fort Myers

Let’s get specific, because vague pricing is how homeowners get burned. A Fort Myers asphalt shingle roof on a typical 1,800 square foot ranch runs $10,500 to $15,000 when we’re doing a straightforward tear-off and re-roof with architectural shingles. Flat roof sections, steep pitches, or multiple valleys push higher. Tile roofing in Fort Myers typically runs $15 to $28 per square foot installed, and metal runs $14 to $22 per square foot installed. The gap between “asphalt” and “tile or metal” is the gap between replacing a roof once every 18 to 22 years and probably never again. Whole-home packages for larger Fort Myers properties, especially two-story homes along McGregor or in gated communities off Colonial, can reach $30,000 to $45,000 when you’re combining tile with extensive flashing work.

What drives cost in Fort Myers more than anything else is what we find when the old roof comes off. On a 1962 ranch in Dunbar, our crew opened up a roof section to replace a rotted valley, and the original deck was compromised enough that the scope had to change. We priced the additional deck replacement in writing before we kept going. That’s how it works with us. You never get a surprise invoice. The original quote stays the original quote unless we show you the issue, agree on the fix, and get your signature.

We offer free in-home roof evaluations to every Fort Myers homeowner. We’ll climb the roof, inspect the deck from the attic, check your drip edge and flashing, and give you a written line-item quote that spells out every component. No trip charge inside Lee County. No obligation. Call (239) 453-7751 to schedule yours.

What a Fort Myers Roof Tear-Off Actually Turns Up

Here’s what nobody tells you about replacing a roof on an older Fort Myers home: you never know what you’re looking at until the old roof is gone. Our crews have pulled shingles off homes in Dunbar and the Edison area and found deck rot the previous roofer simply nailed over. We’ve found undersized rafters that would never carry the load of a concrete tile roof. We’ve found failed flashing around chimneys that had been leaking into the wall for a decade without anyone seeing water inside.

This is the single biggest reason a Fort Myers roof quote moves between companies. The cheap bid doesn’t include what’s under the roof. Our process is different. During the free evaluation, we go into the attic. We look at the underside of the deck. We check the trusses and the rafter ties. If we suspect rot or structural issues, we write an allowance into the contract up front, and we explain exactly what it covers and how we’ll price any find before we touch it. If the deck is solid and nothing surprises us, the allowance simply doesn’t get used. You’re never paying for a problem that doesn’t exist.

What we do is simple. Inspection first. Written allowance in the contract. Any surprise is photographed, explained, and priced in writing before we cut anything. You approve the change in writing before we perform it. No roofer in Fort Myers should work any other way.

Florida Pays You Back

Fort Myers homeowners get help paying for a stronger roof, and you should know what’s available because it changes the math. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida also exempts impact-resistant roofing materials from sales tax, which saves real money on a five-figure roof. The federal 25C energy credit can return 30 percent of the product cost, up to $600 a year, on qualifying energy-efficient roofing. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150 in Lee County, many Fort Myers homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by about 25 percent.

We don’t control the programs, and we won’t promise a credit you won’t get. But we’ll give you honest documentation for every component we install, and we’ll point you to the right resources. Most Fort Myers homeowners combine the My Safe Florida Home grant with the sales tax exemption and the insurance credit, and that stack often covers a significant chunk of a roof replacement.

One honest comparison, because Fort Myers homeowners ask it all the time: permanent impact protection versus hurricane shutters. Shutters require someone to hang them, store them, and maintain them. You must be home when the storm approaches. A roof built to current Lee County wind standards and impact-rated glazing just sits there. It works whether you’re home or not. We don’t install shutters. We install roof systems and impact-rated products that protect your home without panels in the garage.
