Our Shingle Installation Process
Free Inspection & Written Quote
We inspect your existing roof and attic, measure everything, and deliver a written, all-in quote — shingle line, underlayment, ventilation, and any anticipated decking replacement. If existing damage crosses Florida's 25% reroof threshold, we explain exactly how code affects the scope.
Permit & Product Approval
Protek pulls the roofing permit with Hillsborough County (or your city) before any work starts. Every component — shingles, underlayment, fasteners — carries a Florida Product Approval number verifying it's tested for our 130 mph wind zone. You never touch the paperwork.
Tear-Off & Deck Inspection
We strip the roof to bare decking in the morning and inspect every sheet of plywood or OSB. Florida code limits shingle layers, and Tampa's humidity means hidden rot is common — damaged boards are replaced at the per-sheet price quoted upfront, never as a surprise.
Dry-In & GAF System Installation
Sealed underlayment goes down the same day so an afternoon thunderstorm can't touch your home. Then GAF shingles are installed to Master Elite standards — the enhanced six-nail hurricane fastening pattern, new drip edge, flashing at every penetration, and ridge ventilation.
County Inspection & Final Walkthrough
Hillsborough County inspects the work — in-progress and final — before the permit closes. We finish with a magnetic nail sweep of your yard and driveway, a walkthrough with you, and registration of your GAF warranty. Most Tampa shingle roofs are done in one to two days.
Deciding between materials? Shingles are one of several systems we install — see the full roof replacement guide for a side-by-side breakdown of every roof type we offer in Tampa Bay, with honest costs, lifespans, and trade-offs. If you plan to stay in your home 20+ years, standing seam metal roofing is worth a serious look: it costs more upfront, but its 40–70 year lifespan, energy savings, and insurance discounts often make it the cheaper roof over the life of the home.
