We serve commercial and industrial properties across retail, multifamily, religious, education, storage, and industrial sectors.

Hail and Storm Damage Restoration Across Florida
Florida roofs take a relentless beating from tropical systems, hail, and high-velocity wind, and the resulting damage is frequently invisible from the ground. As an experienced hail damage commercial roof restoration contractor, Cotton Roofing uses moisture scanning, infrared assessment, and core sampling to locate punctured membranes, saturated insulation, and impact stress points that a standard visual inspection misses. Once analysis is complete, we restore the entire roof system to pre-loss condition rather than treating surface symptoms.
Delaying action only compounds the risk. Trapped moisture leads to mold, energy loss, and structural deterioration, and it can jeopardize a future insurance claim. Acting quickly after a storm protects both your building and your coverage.
Commercial Roof Systems We Replace
Cotton Roofing is certified and licensed across the roofing systems most common to Tampa's commercial market. Our experts recommend the assembly best suited to your building type, slope, and exposure:
- Single-ply membrane – TPO, PVC, and EPDM systems that deliver superior reflectivity and waterproofing for low-slope commercial roofs.
- Retrofit roofing – A new roof installed over an existing one, restoring performance without a full tear-off or business disruption.
- Metal roof systems – Standing seam and R-Panel assemblies built for the wind and weather resistance that Gulf Coast properties demand.
- Shingle systems – Asphalt shingle solutions for steep-slope commercial structures requiring strength and affordability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a commercial roof replacement take in Tampa?
Timelines depend on roof size, system type, and weather, but most commercial replacements run from a few days to several weeks. Florida's summer storm season and permitting requirements can affect scheduling, which is why we build realistic timelines into every scope and coordinate work around your operations.
Do I need a permit for a commercial roof replacement in Tampa?
Yes. Commercial roof replacements in Tampa and Hillsborough County require permits and must meet Florida Building Code wind-uplift standards. Cotton Roofing handles the permitting and inspection process so your project stays compliant from start to finish.
Will a new roof lower my building's energy and insurance costs?
Often, yes. Reflective single-ply membranes and code-compliant assemblies can reduce cooling loads, and many Florida insurers offer premium credits for roofs that meet current wind-mitigation standards. We can document upgrades that may qualify your property for those reductions.
My roof looks fine after the last storm. Should I still have it inspected?
Yes. Wind and hail damage is frequently invisible from the ground, and trapped moisture can spread for months before a leak appears. A professional inspection establishes a documented baseline and protects your ability to file a timely insurance claim.
Does Cotton Roofing only work on large commercial buildings?
No. We serve properties across retail, multifamily, religious, education, storage, and industrial sectors, ranging from single-tenant retail buildings to large industrial campuses throughout the Tampa Bay area and the state of Florida.
