Roof replacement · Windermere · Orange County
Tile, standing-seam metal and architectural shingle roofs for Windermere’s lakefront and gated-community homes, replaced by a licensed team about 15 minutes away in Winter Garden.
New roofs in Windermere
Many Windermere homes are large, with many hips and long valleys, and many of them carry concrete or clay tile. When a tile roof starts leaking, the tiles are often fine and the underlayment beneath them has worn out. Fixing that means lifting the tile, and that is the moment to decide whether to reinstall it, replace it or change materials.
Where the home sits matters too. Inside the Town of Windermere, the reroof permit goes through the town; in Isleworth, Keene’s Pointe, Lake Butler Sound and the other unincorporated communities with Windermere addresses, it goes through Orange County. Most gated communities also review roof material and color before work starts.
Hi Low handles the whole job: inspection and measurements, material and color selection with samples in hand, the HOA submittal, the permit, tear-off to the deck, deck repairs, the new roof and the final inspection. Hi Low is a Florida certified roofing contractor (CCC1332547) and certified general contractor (CGC1529815).

Materials
The right roof depends on the house, the lot and the community rules. These are the systems we install most often in Windermere, and where each one fits.
Keene’s Pointe, Isleworth, lakefront estates
The look many Windermere communities are built around. Tile lasts for decades; the underlayment under it doesn’t. A tile replacement is mostly an underlayment replacement, with new tile where the old pieces are broken or the profile is discontinued.
Lake houses and modern rebuilds
Concealed fasteners, long panels and strong wind performance make metal a good fit on open water. It is light, sheds oak debris well and comes in a wide range of colors for HOA review.
Homes in town and newer subdivisions
The most affordable full replacement: wind-rated shingles over a full underlayment, with new flashing and ventilation. On wooded lots we give the valleys extra attention, because that is where leaves and moss collect.
Reroofing in Windermere
Permits
Inside town limits the Town of Windermere issues the reroof permit; homes in the unincorporated Windermere area are permitted by Orange County. We confirm which one applies before we schedule.
Gated communities
We prepare the HOA submittal with product data and color samples, then schedule gate access, deliveries and work hours with the community.
On the water
Homes on the Butler Chain face open water. New roofs are installed to the wind design for the site, with extra attention to ridges, hips and edge metal.
Oaks and moss
Heavy canopy drops leaves and twigs into valleys and behind tiles, where they hold moisture. We choose valley details that let debris wash out and protect landscaping during tear-off.

Call 407-287-6171 7 questions answeredMost shingle and metal replacements take a few working days once materials are on site; large tile roofs take longer. HOA review and permitting usually take more time than the installation, so we start those first.
The Town of Windermere for homes inside town limits, and Orange County for the unincorporated Windermere area, including several gated communities. Hi Low pulls the permit for your address.
Sometimes. If the tiles are sound and replacements in the same profile are still available, they can be lifted, stored and reinstalled over new underlayment. If many are broken or the profile is discontinued, new tile is usually the better choice. We check during the inspection.
Often, but check your HOA’s architectural guidelines first. We provide the product information and samples you need for the application.
We prepare the submittal package your association asks for: product specifications, color samples and roof details. The approval itself comes from your HOA.
It can. After a reroof, a wind mitigation inspection documents features such as roof deck attachment and secondary water resistance, which Florida insurers use for premium credits. Results depend on your home and your insurer.
