“We have earned a 1st Class Reputation and plan to keep it that way!”
We are Tile Roof Specialists, Inc. — Steve Oxier and Marshall Hoerl. Between us we have over 80 combined years of experience working exclusively on tile roofs in Central Florida. We are not a large company and we do not pretend to be.
When you call us, you reach one of us directly. When we come to your home, it is one of us at your door. We do the work ourselves. We’ve been fixing tile roofs throughout Central Florida since 1985.
Our most enjoyable part of this business is solving our customers’ problems. Over the years one thing has become clear — every tile roof has its own personality. While all tile roofs are similar, they are all in one way or another different, and that variety is one of the things that makes our job so challenging and enjoyable.
Some of the clients who have trusted us with their tile roofs:
Governor Ron DeSantis • Isleworth Country Club • Winter Park Racquet Club • St. Leo Abbey • Merrywood Historic Estate — Winter Park • Spruce Creek Fly-In, Port Orange
City of Orlando — Chinese Ting at Lake Eola consultation
City of Daytona Beach — Historic Bandshell tile-roof assessment, 2009
The Orlando Chinese Ting — the distinctive Chinese pagoda-style pavilion at Lake Eola in downtown Orlando is one of our memorable landmark projects. The City of Orlando called on Steve and Marshall to inspect the pavilion and consult on its condition and appearance. Watch the story of this unique Orlando landmark and our involvement.

The Daytona Beach Bandshell has brought people together through music since 1937. In 2009, the City of Daytona Beach called on Steve and Marshall of Tile Roof Specialists, Inc. to assess its tile roof. Their inspection identified a leak above a window and substantial tile work needing attention. This short film tells the Bandshell’s history and our part in assessing its roof.

We specialize exclusively in tile roof repair — tile roofs only, every day, since 1985.
Water travels and hides under tiles. Finding the real entry point of a leak requires experience, determination, and diligence. We find what others miss.
Cracked tiles, broken tiles, slipped tiles, failed mortar, deteriorated underlayment — we handle every type of tile roof repair with care and precision.
Flashing around chimneys, walls, and valleys is one of the most common sources of tile roof leaks in Florida. We repair and reseal it properly.
After a storm, displaced tiles leave your roof exposed. We respond quickly, assess the full damage, and get your roof protected.
We repair tile roofs on country clubs, churches, office buildings, and historic estates. Our clients include Isleworth Country Club and St. Leo Abbey.
We have 41 years of experience working with homeowners to help maintain insurance coverage. We document damage thoroughly and work through the process with you.
Information we have shared with Central Florida homeowners since 1985.
Your roof protects everything you hold dear. It must not leak — and when it does, you want it fixed right. You already know that a tile roof is different from all other types of roofs. Most roofers work on a tile roof just a few times a year. We work on tile roofs every day and have over 40 years of experience doing just that.
The truth is there are many honest and talented roofers — but while they may be very experienced at other kinds of roofs, tile is a specialty. More damage can be caused by an inexperienced worker on a tile roof than the original problem ever would have caused. You can be sure that we understand your roof and we know what to do to solve your problems.
What actually protects your home is not the tiles themselves. Contrary to popular belief, the tiles on your roof are not what keeps rain out. Under the tiles is your real protection — the underlayment, sometimes called the base sheet. There may be more than one layer. This is laid over the wood decking of your roof, and the tiles are installed on top of it. Along with metal flashings around chimneys, valleys, and vent pipes, the base sheet is what stands between your home and water intrusion.
Tiles may be attached by various methods: nailed, screwed, foam adhesive, mortar, or nailed to battens (strips of wood running over the underlayment). Understanding how your specific roof was built is part of how we diagnose problems correctly.
The good news about tile roofs in Florida: Most damage to roofs is caused by the sun’s UV rays. Because the tiles shade the underlayment beneath them, the sun cannot penetrate and destroy it the way it destroys exposed roofing materials. That is why a properly maintained tile roof can genuinely last the lifetime of a home.
Problems occur regardless of the age of the roof. If you see water stains on your ceiling, stains along the eaves or soffit, or any sign of moisture inside your home, take action promptly. Water that finds its way in will cause mold, rotted wood, and pest infestations over time — all of which are far more expensive to address than the original roof repair would have been.
“Old Fashioned Personal Service” is the way we do business. Always has been. Always will be. These are the same values we have held since the day we opened in 1985.
We do the work ourselves — always. We never subcontract. Never. The people who answer the phone are the same people who come to your home and do the repair.

41 years of insurance experience. We help you work with your insurance company to maintain your coverage — with thorough documentation and the expertise to back it up.
We want to be your roofer for life. Prompt, courteous, friendly and dependable from your very first call to the final repair.
We have unique and proprietary ways to find and repair tile roof leaks that other roofers simply do not use.
Finding a leak in a tile roof is kind of like being a detective. Water stains can be deceiving — water runs to its lowest point and the tiles carry, collect, or disperse it. Most of all, the tiles hide the problem. Finding the real entry point of that rain water requires experience, determination, and diligence. That’s the Tile Roof Sleuth.
After the entry point has been discovered it’s time for the Surgeon. The roof must be carefully opened, the damaged area revealed, repairs made, and the roof closed. We don’t like scars — we try to make the roof look as original as possible when we leave the job site. That’s the Tile Roof Surgeon.
If you have water coming in and are waiting for us to arrive, there are several simple things you can do right now to protect your home from further damage. Click here to find out what to do before the roofer arrives →

Steve and Marshall, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for the excellent job you and your company did on the tile roof. As you know, the last few weeks have brought a great deal of rain and it is nice to not have to wonder if the roof is going to leak. You were prompt, well mannered and professional throughout the entire process. Once again, thank you!
View this property →Dear Steve & Marshall, we made it through weeks of rain without a leak! After three other attempts by two local roofers, Tile Roof Specialists fixed the five leaks plaguing the home we bought just one year ago. You told me — and I do believe — “I never have to replace the roof because of leaks. We will find them and keep your roof intact.” I will call you again, knowing that you can fix what leaks and save me thousands of dollars.
