Types of Residential Roofs We Install

We specialize in residential roof installation that blends curb appeal with coastal durability. Here’s a look at the roofing systems we recommend for St. Petersburg homeowners.

Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Asphalt shingles remain a top choice across Florida for their balance of cost, style, and weather performance. At Leggett Roofing, we only install premium shingle systems that stand up to Florida heat and humidity, and look great while doing it.

We offer two standout options.

Architectural Asphalt Shingles

  • Thicker and more dimensional than basic shingles
  • Enhanced wind and algae resistance
  • Great for boosting curb appeal
  • Available in many styles and colors

Luxury Asphalt Shingles

  • Designed to mimic slate or shake with added visual depth
  • Built for long-term performance
  • Ideal for homeowners wanting a high-end, durable look
  • Extra weight means better wind resistance

Metal Roofing

For Florida homeowners who want durability and energy efficiency, metal roofing is hard to beat. These roofs reflect heat, stand strong against coastal winds, and require very little upkeep. Plus, they’re a great fit for both modern and traditional homes in St. Pete.

Explore these popular styles.

Standing-Seam Metal Roofing

  • Clean, modern panels with concealed fasteners
  • Excellent resistance to water, wind, and corrosion
  • Adds a sleek, updated look to any home

Exposed Fastener Metal Roofing

  • Budget-friendly and easy to install
  • Ideal for sheds or outbuildings
  • Requires periodic maintenance around fasteners

Stone-Coated Metal Roofing

  • Integrates the strength of metal with the style of tile or shake
  • Great for homeowners who want unique curb appeal
  • Lightweight, fire-resistant, and storm-ready

Tile Roofs

In St. Petersburg’s tropical setting, tile roofs are a timeless and practical choice. Clay and concrete tile roofing systems offer unmatched durability and coastal charm. These roofs hold up for decades with minimal maintenance, and look beautiful doing it.

We offer both classic options.

Clay Tile

  • Long-lasting and low-maintenance
  • Great heat and wind resistance
  • Adds an upscale, rustic look to your home
  • Complements Mediterranean and Spanish-style architecture

Concrete Tile

  • Customizable shapes and colors
  • Strong against wind and rain
  • Cost-effective alternative to clay
  • Ideal for coastal homes that need both beauty and durability

Slate Roofs

If you’re looking for the ultimate in longevity and luxury, natural slate is the gold standard. While it requires a skilled installer and a bigger investment up front, the payoff is a roof that can last up to 100 years, and look incredible the entire time.

  • Made from real stone for natural variation
  • Fire-resistant and virtually maintenance-free
  • One of the most durable roofing materials available
  • A stunning upgrade for homeowners planning to stay long term

FAQs About Residential Roofing in St. Petersburg

If your roof is over 15 years old or showing any signs of leaks, missing shingles, or soft spots, it’s time to consider a residential roof installation. Florida’s climate can accelerate wear, so don’t wait until a small problem becomes a big one.

Surprisingly, no. Both tile and slate are known for their low maintenance, just occasional inspections and minor repairs when needed. Proper installation is the key, which is why we always use skilled, trained crews.

Absolutely. When installed correctly, metal roofing can handle high winds, heavy rain, and even debris. It’s one of the strongest and most storm-resistant options available for Gulf Coast homes.
