The 6-Layer Florida Building Code Installation Assembly
Every roofing system installed by Repel Dry LLC strictly complies with the Florida Building Code 8th Edition (2023) and high-velocity hurricane zone specifications. Here is how our multi-layered defense protects your property:
We inspect 100% of CDX plywood or OSB sheathing and re-nail all panels into roof rafters using 8d ring-shank nails (0.131" diameter, 2.5" length) spaced every 6 inches along edges and 12 inches in the field, doubling wind uplift resistance.
We apply a self-adhering modified bitumen membrane directly to the bare wood deck across the entire roof surface. This creates an impermeable seal around every nail penetration and qualifies you for maximum wind mitigation insurance credits.
We install 26-gauge prepainted aluminum or galvanized steel drip edge along all eaves and rakes, bedded in asphalt plastic cement and mechanically fastened every 4 inches on center to prevent wind-driven rain from penetrating the fascia.
Rather than cutting field shingles, we install pre-cut starter courses with aggressive thermal sealant along all eaves and gable rakes, creating a continuous lock that stops wind blow-offs at the roof perimeter.
Every shingle is secured with 6 hot-dipped galvanized roofing nails driven below the adhesive line into structural decking, raising the manufacturer wind warranty to 130–150 MPH hurricane velocity ratings.
We balance attic air exchange with high-capacity baffled ridge vents, and replace all plumbing vent pipe boots with UV-stabilized silicone or lead boots to guarantee watertight penetrations for decades.

From initial diagnostics through final municipal building department sign-off, our team manages your project with precision craftsmanship, punctuality, and constant communication:
