Can my asphalt shingles be restored?
Understand the assessment, preparation and reasons a roof may need replacement instead.

Shingle Hero makes the plant-based treatment. Krystal Klean Exterior is the authorized dealer for Tampa Bay, working these roofs since 2016 — they inspect your roof, tell you whether it qualifies, and do the work.

St. Pete gets weather from both sides. Houses near the water in the Old Northeast, Snell Isle and Shore Acres take salt air and sit low, and the older ones have been re-roofed more than once already. Out toward Gateway, Carillon and Feather Sound the stock is newer and drier, and the roofs there are usually still in the window where treatment does something. What almost every St. Pete roof has in common is a north slope that streaks first.
Start with an assessment of the shingles, repair needs and treatment options. If insurance is part of your decision, ask your agent what documentation your carrier requires.
Near the bay we check the hardware and flashing for corrosion alongside the shingle. Further inland we are mostly reading whether the shingle still bends and still holds its granules.
On the older waterfront stock, penetrations and flashing are where leaks start. Those get scoped in writing before anything goes on the roof.
Flexibility is one assessment factor, alongside granule coverage, seal strips, leaks and decking. A St. Petersburg roof with sound asphalt shingles may qualify; widespread deterioration calls for a different recommendation.
From Downtown to Old Northeast, Shingle Hero covers St. Petersburg and nearby Pinellas County communities.
We do not treat every city the same. Each St. Petersburg roof gets checked against local heat, storm exposure, algae growth, ZIP-code coverage, and whether the shingles are still a good candidate for restoration.
We start with shingle age, granule loss, sealant condition, nail pops, lifted tabs, and roof ventilation across Pinellas County.
Book inspection →If the roof qualifies, we restore flexibility and waterproofing for asphalt shingles in Downtown, Old Northeast, Snell Isle.
See rejuvenation →Low-pressure cleaning removes algae and staining without stripping granules before the St. Petersburg roof is treated.
See cleaning →Nail pops, lifted shingles, flashing reseal, and small shingle fixes are documented before rejuvenation starts.
See repair →Start with the condition of your roof. Roof rejuvenation is a treatment for eligible asphalt shingles; it cannot replace missing shingles, repair a leak or correct failing decking. Use these guides to prepare questions for your assessment.

Compare roof area, access, cleaning, repairs and warranty terms before choosing a price.
Dark streaks and aging shingles are different concerns. Learn what each service addresses.
Compare repair, cleaning, treatment and replacement according to the condition of the roof.
It changes what fails first. Salt tends to take the fasteners, the flashing and the vents before it takes the shingle itself, so on a waterfront house we look at the hardware as carefully as the roof surface. Sometimes what you actually need is a repair, not a treatment, and we will say so.
A written estimate depends on the measured roof area, pitch, access, shingle condition and preparation needed. Ask whether cleaning, repairs and landscape protection are included or quoted separately. Compare the complete scope and written warranty rather than a price from another home.

BEFOREAFTER
BEFOREAFTER
BEFOREAFTERA good recommendation explains what the treatment can address, what needs repair first, and when replacement is the better option. Ask questions and compare the written scope before you decide.
Shingle condition, repairs and the roof deck matter. The recommendation starts with your roof, not a promise that every roof qualifies.
Ask how the crew will protect landscaping, manage the cleaning step and prepare the shingles. Those details belong in your project scope.
Understand what treatment, cleaning and repair would cost for your property before deciding whether they are a suitable alternative to replacement.
Surface staining and shingle deterioration are different concerns. Your estimate should explain the cleaning and preparation included before treatment.
Discuss roof-condition records and any documentation requested by your insurer. A treatment or letter does not guarantee an underwriting decision.
Read the coverage, exclusions, maintenance requirements and transfer terms before the work starts. Keep the signed project documents with your roof records.
If your insurer asks about your roof, start with its specific documentation requirements. Discuss the inspection, condition photos and any Certified Life Letter with your agent. Rejuvenation or a letter does not guarantee renewal or replace an inspection your carrier requires. Read the Florida consumer guide to homeowners insurance for inspection context.
Keep the assessment and dated photos so the condition of the roof is documented.
Ask your agent what inspection, inspector qualifications and records the underwriter requires.
Retain the estimate, work performed and any treatment documentation with your property records.
Read the written coverage, exclusions and transfer requirements. Warranty coverage and insurance approval are different decisions.

Most jobs are completed in a single day. The soft wash, Plant Hero application, rejuvenation spray, and walkthrough are all handled by our certified crew in one visit, typically 6 to 8 hours depending on roof size.
The assessment checks the asphalt shingles, granule coverage, repairs and roof deck. Age alone does not determine eligibility. Serious deterioration, structural damage or leaks need evaluation before treatment is considered.
Rejuvenation should not be relied on to fix an active leak. The source needs to be assessed and the appropriate repair addressed. Treatment eligibility is a separate decision based on the roof condition.
No. Cleaning addresses staining and organic growth. Rejuvenation is a separate treatment considered for eligible asphalt shingles. The assessment should explain whether cleaning, repairs, treatment or replacement fits the roof.
Almost nothing. Move your cars off the driveway, keep pets indoors during application, and water your landscaping the morning of. We handle the rest.
Ask for the product safety information and the crew’s preparation instructions, including how pets and landscaping will be protected during cleaning and application. Plant-based language is not a substitute for following the product instructions.
Ask for the maintenance and re-treatment recommendations for your roof, exposure and product. Read the written warranty conditions. Material tests do not establish a fixed added lifespan that applies to every roof.
The actual price depends on measured roof area, pitch, condition, access and the proposed scope, including preparation or repairs. Request an assessment and written estimate for your address. Compare what each proposal includes rather than treating a general online price as your quote.
Yes. $0-down financing is available for qualified buyers. Most homeowners spread the investment over 12 to 60 months with affordable monthly payments.
It is roof-condition or treatment documentation to discuss with your insurance agent. Ask what information and inspector qualifications your carrier requires; a treatment letter may not replace its required inspection.
A treatment or letter does not guarantee renewal. Ask your agent or carrier which inspection and records are required for its review and follow the instructions in your policy correspondence.
Ask for the written warranty supplied for your project and check its transfer conditions, deadlines and required records before relying on coverage for a new owner.
Review the written warranty supplied with your project for the exact coverage, exclusions, maintenance requirements and claim process. Warranty coverage is different from a promise of added roof life, and it does not replace necessary repairs.
No fixed added lifespan or insurance renewal should be assumed for your property. Review the assessment, treatment scope and written warranty with the actual operator. Insurance decisions remain with the insurer; treatment alone is not a renewal guarantee.
