AF Roofing | Roofing Services in Ocala, FL 34471

Shingle curling in Ocala is often caused by our intense Florida sun baking the asphalt and underlying moisture from humidity. This causes the shingles to warp and lose their protective granules. AF Roofing first performs a thorough inspection to assess the damage. For localized issues, we can perform precise repairs. If the curling is widespread, we recommend a replacement with premium, UV-resistant shingles rated for our climate, ensuring a longer-lasting solution for your home.

Those black streaks are actually a hardy algae called Gloeocapsa magma, which thrives in our warm, humid climate. While pressure washing can damage shingles, AF Roofing uses a safer, low-pressure soft wash system with EPA-approved, biodegradable cleaners. This method effectively kills the algae at the root without harming your roof. We can also apply a zinc or copper strip treatment at the roof's peak to prevent stains from returning after the next rain.

It depends on the extent of the damage and the age of your roof. For isolated problems like a small area of curled shingles or storm damage, a targeted repair is often a cost-effective fix. However, if your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan or the damage is widespread, a partial repair might not address underlying issues. Our AF Roofing experts will give you an honest, detailed assessment and recommend the most durable and economical option for your Ocala home.
