ASPHALT SHINGLE ROOFING IN FLORIDA
Affordable, Familiar, and Far from Basic
Shingles are the most common roofing material in Florida - but not all shingle roofs are created equal.
At Ignite Exteriors, we don’t chase the cheapest material. We install high-grade architectural shingle systems with premium underlayment and manufacturer-backed warranties that stand up to Florida’s heat, wind, and heavy rains.
WHY WE ONLY INSTALL ARCHITECTURAL SHINGLES
3-tab shingles aren’t just outdated - they’re no longer code-compliant for new installs in Florida. They can’t meet recent wind uplift requirements and don’t offer the protection today’s homeowners need.
We only install architectural (laminated) shingles that are rated for higher wind speeds and come with stronger manufacturer warranties.
WHY UNDERLAYMENT MATTERS
Florida building code allows synthetic felt underlayment for shingle roofs - and most contractors use it because it’s cheap, and code-compliant. But at Ignite Exteriors, we don’t believe code minimums are good enough.
We install ice and water shield underlayment on every shingle roof - not just in valleys and around penetrations, but across the entire deck.
This peel-and-stick membrane bonds directly to the wood, seals around nails, and creates a true waterproof barrier.
⚠️ Synthetic underlayment may pass inspection - but in our experience, it leaves homeowners vulnerable to leaks, especially during high winds and heavy rain.
We take workmanship seriously so you can rest easy when storm season hit
WHAT SETS OUR SHINGLE ROOFS APART
Not all shingles or installations are created equal. We install upgraded architectural shingles with enhanced fastening, reinforced nail zones, and wind ratings that actually hold up in Florida’s storm seasons.
Reinforced Nail Strips
The shingles we install feature reinforced nail zones that grip better and reduce the risk of blow-off during high winds.
Rated for Florida Wind Zones
Our architectural shingles are rated for up to 160mph wind speeds when installed as a full system.
