Roof Sheathing
The Layer That
Ties It Together
Roof sheathing is the critical structural layer that connects your roof framing to the finished roofing system and in Florida, it's one of the most inspected elements of any residential build. As part of our full roof framing contractor services, Trusses, Framing & Below now includes roof sheathing installation to give you a complete, inspection ready roof structure in a single scope of work.
We install OSB (Oriented Strand Board) and plywood sheathing to engineered nailing patterns and spacing requirements fully compliant with Florida's high wind sheathing specifications. This means fewer coordination headaches, faster inspections, and a tighter, stronger roof from day one.
OSB & Plywood Sheathing
Structural panel sheathing installed to span rating and thickness requirements
Florida Wind Zone Nailing Patterns
Proper panel staggering and H clip use for structural continuity and inspection approval
Panel Layout & Staggered Joints
Sheathing nailed to high velocity and standard wind zone requirements per Florida Building Code

Integrated with Roof Framing Scope
Sheathing handled by the same crew as your roof framing no scheduling gaps or coordination delays
Why does roof sheathing matter in Florida?
Florida's wind maps require sheathing panels to be fastened with specific nail sizes and patterns depending on wind speed zone. Improper sheathing is one of the most common causes of failed framing inspections our crews know every zone requirement and nail it right the first time.
