Roofing Questions. Straight Answers.

7V Roofing is an owner-led roofing contractor in Atlantic Beach, FL serving Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. These are the questions homeowners actually ask us — answered the same way we answer them on your driveway.

The Big Ones

Cost, Permits & Process

It depends on what we measure at your home: roof size and pitch, deck condition, the number of penetrations and valleys, material disposal, and access. Honest numbers can't be generic, so we don't publish prices — you get a written, itemized estimate after a free assessment. Call (904) 337-9606 to set one up.

Yes. Every roof replacement in Florida requires a permit from your local building department, and the county inspects the finished work. We pull the permit on every job — it's included in your estimate, it protects your home's title and resale value, and it's non-negotiable.

Under the Florida Building Code, if more than 25% of a roof section is repaired or replaced within 12 months, that section generally has to be brought up to current code. It's why a "big repair" often becomes a replacement on paper — we walk you through where your roof falls during the free assessment.

Most single-family homes are torn off and reroofed in one to two days once materials arrive. Permit approval before that varies by county. You get a realistic start date with your written estimate — not a guess.

One of our owners gets on your roof and assesses its real condition — shingles, flashing, ventilation, gutters, and deck access points — then walks you through exactly what we find. It's a straight answer about where your roof stands, not a sales pitch and not a formal inspection report. Always free, for every homeowner.

Repair when damage is isolated and the roof has real life left. Replace when leaks recur, shingles are at the end of their lifespan, or the work area triggers the 25% rule. We tell you which one applies during the free assessment — and if the answer is "neither, your roof is fine," we tell you that too.

The deck is checked board by board after tear-off, and damaged or rotted decking is replaced before anything goes over it. Deck replacement terms are set out in advance in your written estimate, so there's no surprise change order on job day.

Materials & Warranty

What Goes on Your Roof

Two, both provided in writing at project completion: the Owens Corning Standard Product Limited Lifetime Warranty on the shingle materials, and the 7V 10-Year Limited Workmanship Warranty on the installation. If something fails because of how it was installed, we come back and fix it.

Because installing one system extremely well beats installing five systems adequately. Duration architectural shingles have a wind-uplift performance record that fits Florida code requirements, and standardizing on them means our crews know every detail of the system they're building — no learning curve on your roof.

A poorly vented attic cooks shingles from below and lets humid air condense against the roof deck, aging a roof years ahead of schedule. Balanced intake and exhaust is checked on every 7V assessment — one of our owners, Leo, has 15 years in construction, primarily insulation and building envelope systems, and treats ventilation as part of the roof, not an add-on.

No — and we want to be straight with you about why. We're roofers. We know roofing. We'll give you an honest assessment of your roof's condition. What we won't do is make promises about your insurance policy — that's between you and your carrier. Claim advocacy isn't something we offer, and we won't pretend otherwise.
