Plant City's GAF Master Elite Roofing Contractor
30+ Years of Combined Experience | FL Lic. #CCC1332551
Plant City and Eastern Hillsborough County — including Dover, Valrico, Seffner, and Thonotosassa — represent a mix of established residential neighborhoods, rural properties, and agricultural land that demands a roofing contractor with broad experience across property types. Hytz Roofing is Plant City's GAF Master Elite certified contractor, FL Lic. #CCC1332551, serving Eastern Hillsborough County since our founding.
Plant City's inland location means roofs face intense UV exposure, frequent severe thunderstorms, and significant humidity — conditions that accelerate algae growth, wood rot, and shingle degradation. Hytz installs algae-resistant shingles and proper moisture barriers on every project, and our crews are experienced with both residential and agricultural metal roofing common throughout the Plant City area.
Free inspection available. Financing options to fit your budget.

Get Up to $10,000 to Strengthen Your Roof — Free Inspection Included
If your home was built before 2008, the State of Florida may help pay for your next roof upgrade — and most homeowners have no idea this program exists.
Here's how the grant works:
Standard grant: The state pays $2 for every $1 you spend — up to $10,000. A $15,000 project could cost you as little as $5,000 out of pocket.
Low-income homeowners: Qualify for the full $10,000 with no matching requirement.
The first step is free: A state-assigned wind mitigation inspection documents your home's current hurricane protection and identifies which upgrades qualify for funding.
What qualifies:
Home built before 2008 and located in Florida
Owner-occupied single-family home (primary residence)
Eligible improvements: roof-to-wall connections, deck attachment, secondary water resistance
Work performed by a licensed Florida contractor (FL #CCC1332551)
Act now — funding is limited:
Funding is first-come, first-served, and the 2025–2026 cycle is currently active with $280 million appropriated statewide. The sooner you apply, the better your position in the queue.
Important: You must receive grant approval before any work begins. Starting early protects your reimbursement.
As GAF Master Elite certified contractors licensed under FL #CCC1332551, Hytz Roofing performs all work to Florida Building Code standards — exactly what the program requires. We'll walk you through which improvements your inspection recommends and handle everything from permit to final inspection.
Is Your Roof's Age Putting Your Insurance at Risk?
Florida homeowners are losing coverage every year — not because of storm damage, but because of their roof's age. Florida leads the U.S. in home insurance non-renewals, with a 280% increase since 2018. Roof age is one of the most commonly cited factors. If your roof is approaching or past the 15-year mark, here's what you need to know.
What Florida law says:
Under Florida Statute 627.7011, insurers cannot refuse to issue or renew a homeowners policy solely because the roof is less than 15 years old. For roofs 15 years or older, homeowners have the right to submit a roof inspection showing at least 5 years of remaining useful life — and if that report is accepted, the insurer must continue coverage.
What that means in practice:
Once your roof hits 15 years, your insurer can require a certified inspection before renewing your policy.
If your roof doesn't pass, non-renewal is on the table — regardless of whether it's visibly damaged.
Policies on older roofs frequently shift from Replacement Cost Value (RCV) to Actual Cash Value (ACV) — meaning depreciation is factored into any future claim payout, leaving you with significant out-of-pocket costs if your roof ever needs replacing.
Premiums on homes with roofs past the 15-year threshold run 30–40% higher than comparable homes with newer roofs.
The proactive move:
Don't wait for a non-renewal notice. A certified roof inspection from Hytz Roofing gives you a clear picture of your roof's remaining useful life — and the documentation your insurance carrier needs. Under House Bill 1611, effective July 2024, licensed roofing contractors are now recognized as authorized inspectors, which means the Hytz team can provide the certification your insurer requires.
If your roof can't pass inspection, we'll give you an honest assessment and a straightforward path to replacement — with financing options that keep the cost manageable.
