Roof replacement in Casselberry, FL

The median Casselberry home was built in 1983, according to Census estimates with a margin of plus or minus 2 years. That suggests many roofs here are now 40 years old or close to it. If your roof is that age, a replacement is a decision worth planning, not a surprise. Casselberry's own building division sets the permit steps for that work.

Housing age

How old Casselberry roofs are and what that means for you

About 42.6 percent of Casselberry homes were built before 1980. Only 10.9 percent went up in 2010 or later. Countywide, the median build year is 1988, five years newer than the city. Older roofs in Casselberry are therefore more common than in much of the county.

A roof that has lasted four decades is likely past its useful life. Ask a roofer to check the decking underneath, not just the shingles on top. Rotted sheathing changes the scope of the job and the permit.

Permits and inspections

What a re-roof permit involves in Casselberry

The City of Casselberry's building office handles roof permit paperwork. Call the division before you sign a contract to confirm the current forms.

A permit expires if work does not start within 6 months of issuance, and it lapses if work stops for 6 months. A job is treated as in progress for as long as it has cleared an inspection in the last 180 days. Plan your schedule around those dates.

Local risk

Mobile homes, storms and rain in Casselberry

During Hurricane Irma in 2017, 4,939 residential structures in Seminole County were reported as affected. Hurricane Matthew in 2016 brought a peak gust of 63 mph at Orlando-Sanford International. Ask your insurer which roof documents it wants before a storm arrives.

What is the 25 percent roof rule in Florida?

The 25 percent rule says that if more than 25 percent of a roof is repaired, replaced or recovered within any 12-month period, the entire roof covering must be brought up to code. A roof built or repaired to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later can qualify for a narrower treatment, where only the repaired portion must meet current code. Ask your building official how that applies to your roof.
