Residential Roofing Services in St. Petersburg

Central Builders Group installs and services all major residential roofing systems in St. Petersburg and throughout Pinellas County. Whether you need a full roof replacement, a new roof on a custom home build, or repairs to extend the life of an existing system, we handle the complete scope — materials, labor, permitting, and inspections.

Shingle Roofing

Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common residential system in Pinellas County. Cost-effective, wind-rated for Florida code, and available in a wide range of profiles and colors.

Tile Roofing

Concrete and clay tile is the preferred choice for coastal Florida homes that want longevity and curb appeal. Lifespans can exceed 50 years when properly installed.

Flat & Low-Slope Roofing

TPO and modified bitumen systems for flat and low-slope roofs. Common on additions, ADUs, and mid-century homes throughout St. Pete. Proper drainage design is critical in Florida’s rainfall environment.

Roofing in Pinellas County Requires Florida-Specific Standards

What Florida Homeowners Need to Know Before Replacing a Roof

Pinellas County falls under Florida Building Code high-wind requirements — not every product sold nationally meets Florida code

Coastal salt air accelerates corrosion on metal components, flashing, and fasteners

Florida insurers heavily weight roof age and condition — a new permitted roof can reduce premiums or restore coverage eligibility

The City of St. Petersburg and Pinellas County both require permits for roof replacements — unpermitted work creates problems at resale and voids manufacturer warranties

A Roofing Contractor Who Understands the Whole Structure

Most roofing contractors only do roofing. Central Builders Group is a licensed residential general contractor with a roofing license — which means we see your roof as part of the building system, not an isolated assembly. When a roof replacement reveals damaged decking or rafter issues, we don’t stop and call another contractor.

How the Roofing Process Works

We inspect the existing roof, decking, flashing, and any areas of concern. You receive a written estimate with material specifications, scope of work, and timeline.

Material Selection

We walk you through roofing system options that fit your home, budget, and insurance requirements.
