Bloomingdale homes and their roofs
Bloomingdale is an unincorporated community of about 22,900 people and 8,400 homes, between Brandon and Valrico, with the Alafia River as its southern border (Wikipedia, Bloomingdale, Florida). It grew fastest in the 1980s and 1990s: the population rose from about 13,900 in 1990 to 19,800 by 2000. That growth decides what we find on Bloomingdale roofs today:
- Homes from the mid-1980s and 1990s. Most are on their second roof or later. A shingle roof put on in the early 2000s is now past 20 years, which is when pipe boots crack, shingles lose their seal and flashing lets go.
- Older decking under newer shingles. On homes approaching 40 years old, a leak that has run for a while often reaches the plywood. We check the wood around every repair, not just the shingles.
- Screened pool enclosures and patio roofs. Where an enclosure or a low patio roof is fastened to the main roof edge, water gets in behind the gutter and fascia. See flat and lanai roof leaks.
The Bloomingdale roof leaks we fix most
Valleys full of oak leaves
Water backs up behind wet leaves in roof valleys and runs under the shingle edges. Cleaning the valley and replacing soaked underlayment fixes it.
Limb damage after storms
Bloomingdale Avenue and the streets off it have some of the biggest oaks in the area. Limbs crack shingles and decking in summer storms. See storm damage roof repair.
Cracked pipe boots
The rubber collars on plumbing vents dry out and split after 10 to 15 years. A small, cheap repair if it's caught early. See pipe boot leaks.
Rotted fascia behind gutters
Overflowing gutters soak the fascia board until it rots, and water then gets into the soffit and the wall. See soffit and fascia repair.
Bloomingdale streets we cover
We're on Bloomingdale Avenue, Bell Shoals Road and Lithia Pinecrest Road every week, and on the streets off them from the Brandon side out to Valrico. Bell Shoals Road shares its name with the rapids on the Alafia at Bloomingdale's southern edge. Our office is at 2700 St Anthony Dr, Valrico, FL 33594, a few minutes north. We don't have a separate Bloomingdale office.
Permits and the Alafia in Bloomingdale
Bloomingdale is unincorporated, so roofing permits go through Hillsborough County Development Services. Small repairs often don't need one; bigger repairs and re-roofs do, and we pull them. See roof repair permits in Hillsborough County.
After Hurricane Milton in October 2024, the Alafia rose to record levels and homes near the river around Valrico flooded (FOX Weather). If that happened to your home, remember that flood damage and roof damage are separate claims with separate insurance. See does insurance cover roof leaks in Florida.

Bloomingdale roof leak questions
Is Bloomingdale part of Valrico or Brandon?
Neither, officially. Bloomingdale is its own census-designated place in unincorporated Hillsborough County. Its mail goes to two ZIP codes, 33511 (Brandon) and 33596 (Valrico), which is why your address may say either one. We cover both.
My house was built in the late 1980s. Is the roof original?
Almost certainly not. A shingle roof lasts roughly 15 to 25 years in Florida sun, so most Bloomingdale homes from that era are on their second roof or later. What matters now is how old the current roof is. If you don't know, the permit history on your property usually tells you.
The oaks over my house drop leaves all year. Is that why it leaks?
Often, yes. Leaves pile up in roof valleys and gutters, hold water against the shingles and push it under the edges. It's the most common Bloomingdale leak we find. Clearing valleys and gutters before the rainy season prevents a lot of them. See the rainy season roof checklist.
Did the Alafia flooding after Milton damage roofs?
River flooding damages homes from the ground up, not through the roof, and flood insurance covers it, not your homeowners policy. But the same storm brought hours of wind and rain, so homes near the river can have both kinds of damage. Keep the photos separate for each claim. See roof leak insurance claims.
Do you need HOA approval to repair my roof in Bloomingdale?
Many Bloomingdale subdivisions have an HOA. Repairs that match the existing roof usually don't need approval; a full replacement or a color change usually does. See HOA roof approval.
