My South Tampa 2 story 2700 sq house had a 35 year old brown Spanish barrel tile cement tile roof…read morethat desperately needed to be replaced. So I looked at various options; cement tile replacement was not possible without removing a tree due to having to place a lifting machine in the front yard; a metal roof would rust given my closeness to the water and metal would of course dent whenever it was walked on. Also cement tile roofs absorb moisture easily and crack from being walked on or just from water penetrating the cement and causing it to weaken and crack over time. Also cement tiles, being porous to water, result in surface mold and algae. And cement tiles have a problem called "efflorescence" which is a chemical reaction due to water penetration that causes their color to turn chalky white over time. Our roof had been painted twice at least by previous owners due to the problem with efflorescence and the same was true with our previous house in New Tampa. I really wanted something different. I wanted tiles that would not crack, break, change color, or absorb a drop of water. And that were 180 mph hurricane resistant. OK, I thought I was asking for the moon :) But after a few weeks of studying my options on YouTube, I chose to do a composite Spanish barrel tile roof made of recycled plastic and settled on Brava as they had the best color match and specifications of the various national composite tile manufacturers. Brava gave me a list of local installers they recommended and after getting price quotes, I chose Coppertop roofing. What really sold me on Coppertop was that they had just put a new Brava Spanish barrel roof on a huge university building in St. Pete and the pics were stunning. Brava shipped me samples of every tile they had so that I could find the best match to my existing color scheme. Coppertop worked with me and with the Brava engineering team to choose the components to get the longest lasting roof possible; this involved choosing the features such as "open valleys", stainless steel screws (2 per tile), one O'Hagin vent in front, three 6' Tamco off ridge vents in back, and Polystick TU Plus underlayment. Robert who is the owner of Coppertop roofing returned every call when I had a question or concern and his secretary, Paula, was always polite and helpful in getting any messages through. Ivan, the site foreman, took care of my every concern during the installation. Thanks Ivan! The roof was finished yesterday and the result looks beautiful !!! My wife agrees too. I am very happy that the color of the tile is UV stabilized and will never change it's appearance. The water runs off the roof now as plastic is of course hydrophobic, whereas with the previous cement tiles, water dripped off more slowly since cement is hydrophilic. I give Coppertop the highest endorsement. And I think the Brava tiles are exceptional and will last at least 50 years. Every roofer should learn to put them on. It requires more flashing instead of mortar; the result is less mess when installing because the mortar isn't having to be mixed and thrown between tiles. The technical details of installation require the most experienced team to be your roofer and that roofer is Coppertop. Robert's son Tyler and his wife for the initial quote and helped choosing the best tile color which turned out to be dark brown with black streaks; it looks better and more dramatic than we ever expected with our house having a linen white color. Thanks again, Robert, Paula, Ivan, and Tyler at Coppertop roofing!!

Gene Spires installed a monolithic roofing system on my home that is failing. It has barely been…read moretwo years and already the product is peeling and cracking. I asked that he please place insulation, but he insisted there was no need and yet, my electric bill has tripled monthly over the last two years. My AC runs constantly and when it rains, you cannot hear anything or anyone because it is soo loud. The drip edge he installed has a backward kick at the bottom so the rain and dew run into, rather than away from, my house, under soffit and eave, down windows, and floods my porches. I reviewed with Gene many times how much this roof needed to be "high and tight" and yet we have had bats roosting and making their way into my house. I withheld the final payment in hopes that he would fix these issues and he threatened to place a lien on my home so I paid him. He promised to make good and Never Did. In fact, he even goated me into hiring a roofing consultant by promising to make the necessary repairs. The consultant sent him what needed to be done and he never did it. There is a whole host of issues associated with this roof. Please hire someone else, like Hightower Roofing. Someone with integrity and honesty. A roofing company that stands behind their work. Don't get taken to the cleaners like I did.
