Serving Amelia Island
An island roof
has nowhere to hide.
Amelia Island is surrounded by salt water on every side, and that changes the order in which a roof fails. The shingle field is usually the last thing to go. What goes first is the metal: drip edge, valley metal, the flashing where a wall meets the roof, the fasteners and the boots around the plumbing stacks.
So we start there. The assessment works the perimeter and the penetrations before it works the field, and on island homes we specify corrosion-resistant fasteners and pay closer attention to how the edge is detailed, because that is where wind-driven rain gets underneath.
Downtown Fernandina adds another wrinkle. Older houses with steep pitch, dormers, chimneys and porch roofs that were added later have a lot of junctions, and most historic-district leaks are flashing failures rather than worn-out shingles. If your property is in a review district, tell us at the assessment and we will put the product data and colour options in writing so you can submit for approval.
Every job is permitted before the first shingle comes off. At completion you get the Owens Corning Standard Product Limited Lifetime Warranty on the materials and the 7V 10-Year Limited Workmanship Warranty on our labour, both in writing, and an owner is on the job leading the crew.
Amelia Island at a glance
Permitting
Pulled with the City of Fernandina Beach or with Nassau County, depending on your address, before work begins.
What the weather does here
Ocean on one side, marsh on the other, and wind off both. Salt takes the metal first, so edge detail, valley metal and flashing decide how long an island roof lasts.

Where we work
From downtown Fernandina to the south end.
Thirteen miles of island and a lot of different exposure. Here is what we tend to find where.
Historic downtown Fernandina
Older homes with dormers, chimneys and added porches. Flashing and valley detail are almost always the real story.
Amelia Island Plantation
Larger homes under heavy tree cover, with long valleys and a lot of penetrations to flash properly.
Summer Beach
Front-line exposure. Fastening pattern and edge metal matter more than anything else.
American Beach
A mix of ages close to the dunes, where salt reaches the metal fast.
Amelia City and the marsh side
Wind from the west across open marsh, plus shade that slows drying on the north slopes.
A1A and the south end
Newer construction now on its first replacement, usually with a ventilation correction.
