AfterHow Much Does Storm Damage Repair Cost in Orlando?
Storm damage repair in Orlando, FL typically costs between $450 and $2,800 depending on what got hit, with most homeowners spending $950 to $1,600 for wind-driven shingle loss and flashing repairs. Full roof replacement after a major hail or wind event runs $9,500 to $22,000 for a standard asphalt shingle roof in the Orlando metro. Tilehurst Roofing Orlando gives you a written price before any work starts, so you’ll know the exact number before a single nail goes in.
Those numbers come from hundreds of storm repair jobs across Orange County, not national averages. Orlando’s afternoon thunderstorm season, which runs June through September, produces a specific kind of damage you won’t see in Dallas or Denver: wind gusts that peel shingles in the middle of a rain column, leaving underlayment exposed for days before you even notice. That drives a lot of the pricing you’ll see below.
Storm Damage Repair Cost Breakdown (2026)
Here’s what we’re actually quoting in Orlando right now. These ranges reflect the Orlando market as of 2026, including current material costs from the seven manufacturers we work with: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral.
| Repair Type | Typical Cost Range | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Missing shingle replacement (1-5 shingles) | $450 – $750 | Matching shingles, sealant, labor, minor nail replacement |
| Wind-lifted shingle resecuring (per section) | $350 – $650 | Re-nailing lifted shingles, replacing torn tabs, sealing edges |
| Flashing repair around chimney or skylight | $600 – $1,400 | New metal flashing, sealant, replacement of failed fasteners |
| Fascia and soffit replacement (per 10 linear feet) | $400 – $900 | Rot repair, new board, painting, drip edge integration |
| Underlayment patch after shingle loss | $500 – $1,000 | Exposed deck repair, new synthetic underlayment, shingle overlay |
| Tree limb impact repair (structural assessment included) | $800 – $3,500 | Deck replacement, truss reinforcement, shingle and underlayment |
| Full roof replacement after severe storm (asphalt shingle) | $9,500 – $22,000 | Tear-off, deck inspection, underlayment, shingles, flashing, ridge cap |
These are real numbers from the Orlando market, not estimator-site ranges that could apply to anywhere in the country. Our Storm Damage Repair in Orlando page walks through what each repair involves, step by step.
What pushes a job toward the top of a range? Three things, mostly. If your roof has multiple layers of old shingles that need tearing off before we can patch properly, labor time goes up. If the storm exposed decking that’s been absorbing water for a week, that deck section gets replaced instead of saved. And if your shingle color or style is discontinued, we source from seven manufacturers to find a match, which sometimes means a full bundle order for three missing tabs.
What pulls a job down? Honest factors. A small patch on a newer roof with matching shingles still available locally. A flashing repair caught early, before the storm rot spread past the metal. A homeowner who calls within days of the storm, not weeks, so underlayment damage hasn’t had time to compound.
Does Insurance Change These Prices?
Yes. Most Orlando homeowners with storm damage file a claim, and in 2026 the process has gotten stricter. Florida insurers now routinely send a second adjuster for wind-loss claims over $5,000, and many policies carry a separate hurricane deductible of 2% to 5% of your home’s insured value. That means a $400,000 home has an $8,000 to $20,000 out-of-pocket threshold before insurance pays anything on a named storm.
Your repair estimate still reflects actual work scope, not what insurance might pay. We price the repair honestly, give you that number in writing, and you submit it to your carrier. If the adjuster’s number comes back lower, we’ll walk you through what they missed. That’s the Kingswell Way: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing.
What Affects Storm Damage Repair Pricing in Orlando
Not every storm-torn roof in Orlando costs the same to fix. Here’s what actually moves the number, based on what we see in neighborhoods from Dr. Phillips to Waterford Lakes.
- Storm type and wind speed. Orlando’s summer storms produce 40-60 mph gusts that lift shingle tabs and tear loose flashing. That’s usually a $600 to $1,200 repair. Hail, less common here than in the Panhandle, can bruise shingles across the whole roof, which often means replacement, not repair.
- Exposure time. A roof that lost shingles on a Tuesday and got rained on until Friday now has wet underlayment and possibly swollen decking. Every day of exposure adds material cost. Call the day you notice damage.
- Roof pitch and height. A single-story ranch with a 4/12 pitch is faster and safer to walk than a two-story home with a 8/12 pitch. Labor hours differ, and that shows up in the quote. Tilehurst Roofing Orlando crews work both, but we don’t pretend they cost the same.
- Material matching. Discontinued shingle lines are common. We work with GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral to source the closest match, and sometimes that means ordering a full bundle for a handful of shingles.
- Deck condition underneath. Storm damage often reveals what’s been brewing for years: soft decking from a slow leak, improper nailing from the original install, rot where the drip edge lifted. If the deck needs attention, it’s part of the repair price, not a surprise line item added at the end.
- Permit requirements in Orange County. Repairs under 100 square feet of roof area generally don’t require a permit, but anything structural does. Orange County’s permitting office updates requirements periodically, and we handle that paperwork as part of the job. No hidden fees for it.
How to Save on Storm Damage Repair
The single biggest money-saver in Orlando storm damage is speed. A missing shingle is a $500 fix. A missing shingle that let water sit on decking for a month is a $2,000 fix. We’ve pulled deck boards in Conway and found them waterlogged from a storm three weeks earlier because the homeowner waited to see if insurance would approve first. Don’t wait on insurance. Get the repair priced now, submit the claim after.
Other ways to keep costs down, in order of impact:
- Do a visual check after every storm. Walk the perimeter of your house. Look for shingle tabs in the yard, granules in the gutter, flashing lifted at the chimney. Catch it early and the repair is simple.
- Know your deductible before the claim. A $450 repair doesn’t justify a claim with a $2,500 hurricane deductible. Pay cash for small repairs and reserve insurance for full replacements. We’ll tell you honestly which path makes sense for your policy.
- Get a written estimate before work starts. This isn’t a money-saving tip as much as a money-protecting one. Tilehurst Roofing Orlando puts a written price in your hands before any work begins, every single time. Anyone who won’t do that is pricing the job as they go.
- Bundle repairs. If a storm damaged your roof and your gutters, fixing both at once costs less than two separate visits. One mobilization, one permit, one crew.
- Check for the guarantee. A repair that fails costs more than the original repair. Every Tilehurst Roofing Orlando repair comes with a written guarantee, delivered before the crew leaves. If that repair fails inside the guarantee period, we return at no charge as part of our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Orlando-Specific Storm Damage Patterns We See Weekly
Afternoon thunderstorms in Orlando aren’t the same as coastal squalls. They build fast over the Everglades, roll across the lake chain, and hit with concentrated wind columns that peel shingles on one side of a roof while the other side stays untouched. If you live in Pine Hills, Winter Park, or College Park, you’ve probably seen this: your neighbor’s roof has a patch of bare underlayment facing east, while your west-facing shingles look brand new.
Ash-covered shingle edges are a different story. We see that in Seminole County after brush fires drift south, but in Orlando proper it’s mostly wind, water, and the occasional oak limb through a deck section. Mature live oaks in Baldwin Park and Thornton Park are beautiful until a 55 mph gust turns one into a battering ram.
One thing most Orlando homeowners don’t know: the ridge cap is the first thing to fail in a storm. Those short shingle sections along the roof peak catch wind from every direction. If your ridge cap is loose after a storm, water enters along the entire roofline, not at one point. That’s a repair that runs toward the top of the range because it usually means replacing cap shingles across the whole ridge, not just a section.
Signs You Have Storm Damage (And What Each Costs to Fix)
Spotting damage early is the difference between a $500 repair and a $5,000 one. Here’s what to look for, and what each item costs in Orlando in 2026.
Missing Shingle Tabs in the Yard
If you find shingle tabs on your lawn after a storm, you have exposed nail lines and likely torn tabs still on the roof. Repair runs $450 to $750 for up to five shingles. The longer the underlayment sits exposed, the more that number climbs.
Granules in the Gutters
Granule loss is normal as an asphalt shingle roof ages, but a sudden heavy deposit after a storm means hail or wind scouring. Granule loss alone doesn’t require immediate repair, but it shortens roof life. Have a professional assess it. The assessment is free, and if repairs are needed, you’ll get a written price before anything starts.
Water Stains on the Ceiling
This is what every Orlando roofer dreads seeing because it means water has already gotten through the roof deck, the insulation, and the drywall. The roof repair might be simple, but you’re also paying for ceiling repair, possibly mold, possibly insulation replacement. Roof-side repairs start at $600 and climb based on how long the leak has been running.
Lifted Flashing at the Chimney or Skylight
Flashing is the metal skirt where the roof meets a vertical surface. Winds get under it, loosen the sealant, and now every rain sends water along the seam. Flashing repairs run $600 to $1,400 in Orlando. Caught early, this is one of the best value repairs you can make.
Dented or Split Fascia Boards
Fascia is the board that runs along the roof edge, behind the gutter. Wind-blown debris or fallen limbs crack and split it. Replacement runs $400 to $900 per 10 linear feet, including paint and drip edge integration.
Repair vs. Replacement: When Not to Repair
For roofs under 12 years old with isolated storm damage, repair almost always wins. The math favors it: a $700 shingle patch now versus a $14,000 replacement fifteen years early. But there are times in Orlando where repair is the wrong call, and we’ll tell you that before we take your money.
If your roof has multiple layers of old shingles (a common shortcut in homes built before 2010), a storm that lifts shingles often exposes the second layer. You can keep patching, but you’re patching over a roof that’s already done its time. If granule loss after a storm reveals bare fiberglass mat over more than 30% of the roof, replacement is the honest recommendation.
Same goes for decking. If we pull shingles and find most of the deck is delaminating, you don’t want new shingles nailed into wet, rotting wood. The fix is a full re-deck, and at that point replacement is often cheaper per year of service life than repeated repairs.
Greg Holloway, who leads Tilehurst Roofing Orlando, puts it this way on every storm assessment: “We’re not in the business of convincing you to replace a roof that needs a patch. But when a patch will fail in a year, you deserve to know that in writing.” Every repair we do carries a written guarantee. Every replacement does too. Either way, you know exactly what you’re paying for and what’s covered before the crew arrives.
How the Tilehurst Roofing Orlando Process Works
If you’ve been burned by a no-show roofer or a price that changed at the door, the process matters as much as the price. Here’s how it works when you call (850) 303-7235:
- You call, a live person answers. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including evenings, weekends, and the middle of a storm. No voicemail, no callback queue, no “we’ll get back to you Monday.”
- We schedule a visit, and we show up in the window we give you. Not a four-hour spread. A window. If you’re in Metro West, we’re not scheduling you around a job in Lake Nona.
- We assess the damage and give you a written price before any work starts. No “let me get back to you with a number.” The number is in your hands before we touch the roof.
- We complete the repair with background-checked, uniformed technicians. You’ll know exactly who is on your roof by name and face.
- We deliver a written guarantee before the crew leaves. Not mailed later. In your hands when the job finishes.
- If it fails inside the guarantee period, we come back at no charge. That’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s in writing.

FAQs – Storm Damage Repair Cost
How much does storm damage repair cost in Orlando?
Most storm damage repairs in Orlando run $450 to $2,800, with the average job landing between $950 and $1,600 for shingle loss, flashing repair, or fascia replacement. Full roof replacement after severe storm damage starts around $9,500 for a standard asphalt shingle roof. Call (850) 303-7235 for an exact quote, free of charge.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a storm-damaged roof?
For isolated storm damage on a roof under 12 years old, repair is almost always cheaper: $450 to $2,800 versus $9,500 to $22,000 for replacement. Repair makes sense until the roof has multiple layers, widespread granule loss, or decking that’s delaminating. We’ll give you an honest assessment and a written price for whichever path makes sense.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage repair in Florida?
Yes, most Florida homeowners policies cover wind and hail damage, but in 2026 many carry a separate hurricane deductible of 2% to 5% of your home’s insured value. For a $400,000 home, that’s $8,000 to $20,000 out of pocket before insurance contributes. For small repairs under $1,000, paying cash often makes more sense than filing a claim.
Can you fix storm damage the same day I call?
That depends on how many storm calls are already scheduled and the severity of your damage. For exposed decking or active leaks, we prioritize emergency work and often provide same-day tarping to stop further water entry while the permanent repair is scheduled. A live person answers every call, 24/7, so you’ll know your timeline immediately.
How long does a storm damage repair take?
Most shingle repairs, flashing replacements, and fascia jobs in Orlando take 2 to 6 hours on site. Full roof replacement typically runs 1 to 3 days depending on roof size, pitch, and deck condition. You’ll get a timeframe in writing along with your price before any work starts.
What does your guarantee cover?
Every Tilehurst Roofing Orlando repair comes with a written guarantee, delivered before the crew leaves. If the repair fails inside the guarantee period, we return and correct it at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. The guarantee covers workmanship and materials for the repair performed. No fine print, no mailed-later paperwork.
