Roofing Services Tybee Island | Expert Roofers in Tybee Island Georgia
Tybee Island is Savannah's beach—a barrier island where Atlantic Ocean waves meet Southern hospitality. As Georgia's easternmost point, our beach community faces the most extreme coastal conditions in the region. From historic beach cottages built in the early 1900s to modern vacation rentals, Tybee homes need roofing solutions engineered for direct ocean exposure. We understand the unique rhythm of island life, from summer tourist season to winter residents, providing roofing services that protect your investment year-round.
What Makes Tybee Island Unique
Tybee's barrier island location means maximum salt air exposure, direct hurricane paths, and sand-laden winds that test every roofing material. Our vacation rental economy demands quick turnarounds between guests. We specialize in scheduling around rental calendars, using coastal-rated materials that withstand what the Atlantic throws at them, and helping rental property owners maximize their ROI with long-lasting roof systems.

Roofing Challenges in Tybee Island
Direct Ocean Salt Spray
Challenge: Unlike mainland locations, Tybee receives constant salt spray directly from the Atlantic, corroding standard materials in 3-5 years.
Our Solution: We exclusively use aluminum or stainless steel fasteners and marine-grade materials rated for oceanfront exposure.
Hurricane Zone A Exposure
Challenge: Tybee is in the highest hurricane risk zone, facing direct storm surge and 150+ mph wind potential.
Our Solution: We install hurricane-rated systems with 6-nail patterns, reinforced edge metal, and impact-resistant shingles meeting Miami-Dade specifications.
Sand and Wind Abrasion
Challenge: Beach sand driven by ocean winds sandblasts shingles, stripping granules faster than mainland locations.
Our Solution: We recommend impact-resistant or metal roofing that withstands abrasion without granule loss.
Vacation Rental Scheduling
Challenge: Rental properties can't have roofing work during guest stays, limiting work windows.
Our Solution: We coordinate with property managers to schedule work between bookings, completing most jobs in 1-2 days to minimize rental income loss.
Historic Beach Cottage Character
Challenge: Many Tybee cottages date to the 1900s-1950s with historic character worth preserving.
Our Solution: We offer period-appropriate material options that maintain beach cottage charm while meeting modern storm resistance standards.
