Roof Repair in Orlando - Free Roof Inspection, Written Price

Trusted Roof Repair for Orlando Homeowners

Roof repair in Orlando is rarely about replacing the whole roof. Most of the time it’s one failed seam, a cracked tile near the valley, or flashing that pulled away during an afternoon thunderstorm. That’s the repair Mercer Roofing Co Orlando handles every week, and it’s work we’ve been doing since 2000 under the Threshold Group framework. We send every technician’s name and photo before the visit, they arrive in uniform with a photo ID badge, and you get a written price before any work starts. Call (850) 757-3564 and a live person answers, day or night.

Grant Whitlock leads our team here in Orlando, and he’s the one you’ll talk to when a repair plan doesn’t feel settled. We work with GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning shingles because those are brands homeowners ask for by name, and because their material warranties hold up under the Florida sun. Whether you’re in Lake Mary, Hunters Creek, or right off I-4 in downtown, a repair that gets priced honestly and fixed properly is what we’re after.

Roof Leak Repair

Leak Repair is the most common call we take in Orlando, and the first thing to know is that a leak on your ceiling is not always where the water is getting in. Water travels along decking and joists before it drips, so a stain near the kitchen might come from a failing vent boot near the peak. We trace the leak to its source before touching anything, then give you a written price for the fix. Most leak repairs around Orlando run $350 to $900 depending on how far the water has traveled and what’s rotted behind it.

Finding the True Source

We don’t patch a stain and call it done. Our techs use a hose test on the roof surface, working section by section to reproduce the leak at its entry point. That’s the difference between a repair that lasts one season and one covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Interior Stains and What They Hide

A brown ring on drywall often means the decking underneath is wet. We’ll cut back the damaged area, dry what can be saved, and replace what can’t. You get a written guarantee on every repair, and if the leak returns within a year, the second visit is free.

Emergency Roof Repair

Emergency Roof Repair is for the moments when waiting isn’t a choice: a tree limb through the decking after a storm, a missing section of shingles with rain forecasted, or water coming through the ceiling right now. When you call, a live person answers 24/7 and we’ll walk you through what to do in the first five minutes, like moving valuables and placing a bucket where it helps. Emergency tarping and temporary sealing in Orlando typically runs $400 to $1,200 depending on access and the size of the damaged area.

Before the Storm Passes

If you call during bad weather, we’ll tell you honestly what can be done safely now and what can’t. No one works on a wet, wind-blown roof without risking injury, and we won’t put a technician in that spot. We’ll schedule the first safe window and have a plan ready.

Tarping and Board-Up

After the worst passes, we can secure the opening with a heavy-duty tarp and battens so rain can’t keep coming in overnight. That buys time for the permanent repair without the interior taking on more damage. It’s a stopgap, but done right it works.

Flat Roof Repair

Flat Roof Patch and repair in Orlando is a different animal than shingle work because water doesn’t shed the same way. Low-slope and flat roofs rely on membranes, seams, and sealants that break down under constant UV and pooling water. We repair TPO, modified bitumen, and older built-up roofs, and common fixes include resealing seams, replacing cracked membrane, and addressing ponding areas that sag and hold water. Most flat roof repairs in Orlando cost $450 to $1,400 depending on membrane type and damage extent.

Ponding Water and Why It Kills Roofs

Standing water that doesn’t drain within 48 hours will eventually find a seam. In places like College Park and Winter Park, we regularly see flat porch roofs and additions with low spots that need a repair taper or a new drain. We look at drainage first because patching a wet area without fixing the ponding just moves the problem.

Seam and Sealant Failure

Most flat roof leaks are seam failures, not membrane holes. We’ll clean the seam properly, apply compatible sealant or patch material, and test it with water before we leave. No repair gets covered by a guarantee unless we’ve tested it.

Shingle Roof Repair

Shingle Replacement and repair is what most Orlando homeowners picture when they think of roof work: missing shingles, lifted tabs, or granule loss showing bare asphalt. We match the existing shingle as closely as possible, though on older roofs a perfect match isn’t always possible and we’ll tell you that upfront. Small shingle repairs run $250 to $600 in Orlando, while larger areas with multiple missing shingles go $600 to $1,200.

Replacing Individual Shingles

Each shingle gets removed carefully so the surrounding ones aren’t damaged, then the new one is secured with the proper nail pattern and sealed. We don’t nail through visible areas or leave exposed fasteners that rust and leak later.

Flashing and Valley Work

More shingle leaks actually start at the Flashing Repair points: the metal junctions around chimneys, skylights, walls, and valleys. We inspect and reseal or replace those transitions whenever a shingle repair touches near them. It’s the difference between a repair that lasts and a callback.

Storm Damage Roof Repair

Storm Damage Roof Repair in Orlando usually means wind-lifted shingles, impact from tree debris, or hail that pockmarked the surface. After a named storm, it’s normal to see shingles scattered in the yard and pieces missing from the roof edge. We’ll document everything with photos, provide a detailed written estimate, and work directly with you on insurance claims without marking up the repair price. Storm repairs in Orlando typically range from $500 to $3,000 depending on the scope, with roof replacements higher when damage is widespread.

Documenting for Insurance

You’ll want photos of everything before repairs start. We help with that: clear images of the damage, measurements of the affected area, and a written scope that matches what your insurer needs to see. We don’t inflate the estimate to “help” a claim, because that puts you at risk.

Wind Lifts and Missing Tabs

A shingle doesn’t always blow off. Sometimes the seal breaks and the tab lifts, which lets wind-driven rain underneath. If not addressed, one lifted shingle becomes twenty after the next storm. We’ll inspect the field of shingles, not just the obvious missing spots.

Metal Roof Repair

Metal Roof Repair focuses on the fasteners, seams, and flashings that hold a metal roof together, not usually the panels themselves. Over time, metal screws back out and rubber washers dry out, which lets water in at those tiny points. We replace failed fasteners with properly sealed ones, reseal lap seams, and address rust spots before they become holes. Metal roof repairs in Orlando generally run $350 to $1,200.

Fastener and Washer Replacement

On exposed fastener systems, the screw and washer are the weak point. We’ll replace them on a schedule, not just the ones already leaking. It’s the kind of preventive work that keeps a metal roof from failing at multiple points at once.

Rust and Corrosion Spots

Florida humidity and salt air in areas closer to the coast accelerate rust, even on “rust-resistant” metals. We’ll treat small rust areas before they open into pinholes, then match the coating as closely as the panel manufacturer allows.

Commercial Roof Repair

Commercial Roof Repair is planned around minimizing downtime for your building’s operations. We work on low-slope membrane systems, metal buildings, and modified bitumen roofs for offices, retail, and warehouses across the Orlando area. Repairs are scheduled around your business hours when possible, and every project gets a written scope before work begins. Commercial repairs in Orlando typically run $700 to $5,000 depending on roof type, access, and the level of investigation needed.

Asset Preservation for Building Owners

A small repair caught today prevents a full roof replacement in a year. We’ll tell you plainly when a repair makes sense and when you’re throwing good money at a failing roof. No one at Mercer Roofing earns a commission for selling you a roof you don’t need yet.

Warranty and Compliance

We follow manufacturer specs so any remaining material warranty stays valid. When a repair involves penetrations or membrane, we use products compatible with the existing system. The job gets documented for your records and the manufacturer’s.

Brands We Service

We work with GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning shingles more than any others, because those are the brands most Orlando homes have. Our technicians know their nailing zones, their seal strip behavior, and their warranty requirements. We don’t fake familiarity with a brand we don’t know: if you have a niche product, we’ll research the manufacturer’s specs before we start and follow them.

For tile and stone-coated metal roofs, we’ve serviced Boral systems and understand how brittle those tiles get after two decades of Florida heat. That manual from 2000 matters, but the specific handling needed for an aging tile system matters more. Whether you have GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, Boral, or another brand entirely, we’ll give you the same written price and the same written guarantee.

Signs You Need a Pro Right Now

• Active water intrusion during rain. If water is dripping or running down the walls inside your home during a storm, that’s not a wait-and-see problem. Every hour of water exposure warps drywall, feeds mold, and soaks insulation. Call now: the repair is always smaller and cheaper before interior damage spreads.
• Missing or damaged shingles after high wind. Shingles that are gone expose the underlayment and decking to direct water. One missing shingle can become a full roof section failure after the next storm. We’ll document the damage for you and your insurer.
• Water stains that reappear after a previous repair. If you’ve had a repair that didn’t hold, the underlying water path was never found. Our techs don’t just patch the last drip spot; they trace the entry point and test with water before they leave. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means we come back if it isn’t right.
• Sagging or soft roof decking. If the roof feels soft or appears to dip between rafters, the structural decking is compromised. That’s a safety issue that needs immediate assessment. Delaying this one can turn a repair into a structural replacement.
• Granules in the gutters or at the base of downspouts. A little granule loss is normal for aging shingles, but heavy loss in one spot signals a failing section. The shingles lose UV protection, then crack and curl, then leak. We’ll assess whether it’s one slope or the whole roof.

Our Process, Step by Step

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. That’s the first difference with Mercer Roofing Co Orlando. No voicemail, no answering service, no call-back form. A live person takes your information, asks about what you’re seeing, and schedules a visit at a time that works for you. Before the tech arrives, you’ll get their name and photo by text.
2. 2
   We inspect and document. The tech arrives in a marked uniform with a photo ID badge. They’ll inspect the roof surface, the attic if accessible, and the interior signs you’ve noticed. Everything gets photographed and measured. We don’t work from a ladder glance; we get on the roof and look.
3. 3
   You get a written price. Before any work starts, you’ll have a written line-item price. No range, no “we’ll see what we find,” no surprise at the end. If we find something unexpected during the repair, we stop and talk to you first. Work never expands without your sign-off.
4. 4
   We repair, test, and photograph again. The repair gets done to manufacturer spec, then tested with water when appropriate. We document the finished work so you can see what was done and hold the guarantee against it.
5. 5
   You get the written guarantee. Every repair includes the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it fails within a year, we come back and fix it at no charge. That’s it. No fine print beyond what you’ve already read.
