St. Pete Beach

A whole city on a barrier island

The city fills the length of Long Key, a barrier island on the edge of the Gulf of Mexico, and three bridges connect it to Treasure Island, South Pasadena and the Bayway Isles area of St. Petersburg. It was consolidated in a 1957 referendum and took the name St. Pete Beach in 1994.

It is known for the Don CeSar, which opened in 1928 at the southern end, the Pass-a-Grille Historic District and the shops of Corey Avenue. Many roofs in town are tile or metal, which suits the Mediterranean and beach-cottage styles.

The Census Bureau reports a median home construction year of 1971 and about 8,400 housing units for fewer than 9,000 residents, which tells you how many are condos and seasonal places. Three quarters of homes date from 1979 or earlier.

Local advantage

Why St. Pete Beach homeowners call us

Salt-air specification

On the island we specify coastal-grade metals and fasteners, because plain steel hardware rusts in a few seasons.

Tile and metal done properly

Tile is re-laid with a renewed underlayment, and metal is installed with marine-grade panels and trim.

Permit for the city

We prepare the roofing permit for the City of St. Pete Beach and book the inspections.

Wind, salt and sand

A roof on a barrier island faces direct exposure from both sides. The Gulf side takes onshore wind, and the bay side takes storm tide. The details are what separate a roof that lasts from one that does not.

  • Stainless steel or coated fasteners and trim near the beach.
  • Aluminum or coated metal panels with a finish warranted for coastal use.
  • Tile fastened to the approved pattern, since wind-lifted tile is the main storm failure.
  • Sealed penetrations, since blowing rain reaches every gap.
  • Regular rinse and inspection of metal near the water.

Questions

St. Pete Beach roofing questions, answered

What roof lasts best on the beach?

Properly installed tile and marine-grade metal both do well. Shingle is also used, but exposed metal parts need corrosion-resistant choices. We explain the trade-offs at the inspection.

Do you work on condo buildings?

We handle small multifamily and low-slope roofs and can advise on larger projects. Describe the building, the number of units and the roof system, and we will tell you whether it fits.

Can you re-lay my tile roof?

Yes, when the tile is sound and matching spares are available. We lift it, renew the underlayment and deck beneath, and reset the tile, then replace any pieces that broke during removal.

Is the pass-a-grille historic district different?

Historic district rules can apply to the appearance of a roof. We recommend checking with the city before you choose a new material or color, and we can help you document what is on the roof now.
