Ferry Pass Roofer re-roofs Brent homes whose 1950s-to-1980s shingle roofs have outlived their service life, a wave now accelerating as the emergency repairs from Hurricane Sally in 2020 reach the end of their patch life.

A full tear-off lets us inspect and replace rotted plywood decking, add a secondary water barrier, and rebuild to the 150 mph design wind standard that Escambia County enforces on every re-roof.

Why Brent homeowners choose Ferry Pass Roofer for roof replacement

Four reasons Brent homeowners trust us with a full re-roof.

Complete tear-off

We strip the roof down to the deck rather than laying over old shingles, so the new Brent roof starts on a clean, inspected surface and carries its full rated life.

Decking and water barrier

We replace rotted plywood and 1x board sheathing found on older Brent homes and add a secondary water barrier before the new roof covering goes on.

Current code rebuild

Every re-roof is built to the current Florida Building Code wind provisions Escambia County enforces, which also helps your roof qualify for wind-mitigation insurance credits.

Insurance claim documentation

We photograph and document the old roof's failure for your insurance claim and provide the itemized scope an adjuster needs, since most Brent re-roofs run through a storm or age-related claim.

How our Brent roof replacement process works

Four steps from inspection to a finished, code-inspected new roof.

Inspect and assess

A roofer evaluates the existing roof, decking, and ventilation and confirms whether a repair is still viable or the roof has genuinely reached replacement age on your Brent home.

Estimate and materials

You receive a written estimate with cost ranges and choose your shingle or metal system, decking allowance, and any ventilation or wind-mitigation upgrades.

Permit and schedule

We pull the re-roof permit through Escambia County Building Services, required for unincorporated Brent, and schedule the tear-off around a clear weather window.

Rebuild and inspect

We tear off, repair decking, install underlayment and the new roof system, then clean up and pass the county final inspection so the work is documented and code-compliant.

What Brent homeowners say about our roof replacement

Brent homeowners across Central Brent, South Gulf Manor, and Pinestead on their re-roofs.

Our roof was patched after Sally and finally gave out. Ferry Pass Roofer replaced it, found and fixed rotted decking, and handled the county permit and inspection start to finish.

Common questions about roof replacement in Brent

Cost, the 25% rule, timing, and permit questions Brent owners ask before re-roofing.

How much does a roof replacement cost in Brent?
A full roof replacement in Brent typically runs $9,000 to $20,000 depending on roof size, pitch, material, decking condition, and code upgrades. Metal systems sit at the higher end. We provide a written estimate with material options after inspecting the roof.
What is the 25% rule, and does it force a full replacement?
Florida's 25% rule says that if more than a quarter of a roof is damaged, the repaired area generally has to be brought up to current code. On older Brent roofs that often makes a full replacement the more practical path. It is set by the Florida Building Code, and we explain how it applies to your specific roof.
When is the best time to replace a roof in Brent?
Late winter through spring is the calmest window on the Gulf Coast, ahead of the June-to-November hurricane season. Demand and scheduling pressure also ease outside of the post-storm rush, though we re-roof year-round around the weather.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Brent?
Yes. A full re-roof in unincorporated Brent requires a permit through Escambia County Building Services and must be performed by a licensed roofing contractor. We pull the permit and pass the required inspections as part of the project.
