Black Diamond is an unincorporated community in Citrus County, north of the county center. It is bordered by Pine Ridge to the north, Beverly Hills and Pine Ridge to the east, and Lecanto to the south, with County Road 491 along its eastern edge. The name is shared with Black Diamond Ranch, a private golf club with a Lecanto address whose Quarry Course, designed by Tom Fazio in 1987, was built in abandoned limestone quarries.
With about 1,255 residents and a median age of 66.9, it is one of the county’s smaller communities. Nearly all homes, 98.2%, are single-family houses, with a median build year of 1996.
Roof Repair in Black Diamond, FL
Many roofs on homes built in the mid-1990s have reached the age where shingles get brittle, flashing seals dry out and pipe boots crack. We find where water is getting in, repair it and check the decking around it. On tile roofs, we replace cracked tiles and look at the underlayment beneath, which often wears out first. Our residential repair work includes photos of what we found and fixed.
Storm Repairs in North-Central Citrus
Hurricane Helene’s highest county gust in 2024, 54 mph, was recorded near Lecanto, just south of Black Diamond, and Milton’s gusts across the county ran 50 to 60 mph. Wind like that lifts shingle edges and loosens ridge caps and tile. Our storm and wind damage repairs start with an inspection and photos. Because Black Diamond is unincorporated, any permit goes through the Citrus County Building Division, and we pull it for you.
When Black Diamond Homes Need a New Roof
If leaks keep coming back or the roof is worn across every slope, a full tear-off replacement is usually the better fix. We remove the old roof, replace damaged decking, handle the permit and inspections, and roof financing is available.
Tile, Shingle and Metal for Single-Family Homes
Because nearly every home here is a site-built single-family house, all three main roof types are options: architectural shingles from GAF and Owens Corning, concrete and clay tile roofs including Eagle tile, and metal. We repair and install each of them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you fix a leak in Black Diamond quickly?
Call (727) 288-4650 as soon as you notice the leak. For an active leak, calling is the fastest way to get the opening covered and a repair scheduled. Catch the water and move anything valuable out of its path in the meantime.
Will my Black Diamond roof need repair or a full replacement?
That depends on how much of the roof is affected. A single leak, a few shingles or some cracked tile can usually be repaired. If the whole roof is aging out, we’ll show you photos and explain why replacement is the better choice.
Do you repair tile and metal roofs here?
Yes. We repair concrete and clay tile, including Eagle tile, metal roofs and architectural shingles. With tile, we check the underlayment as well as the tiles, since worn underlayment is a common source of leaks on older tile roofs.
Who issues roofing permits in Black Diamond?
Black Diamond is unincorporated, so roofing permits come from the Citrus County Building Division. We apply for the permit, schedule the required inspections and keep you updated along the way.
My home was built in the 1990s. Should I have the roof inspected?
Yes, especially if the roof has never been replaced. Shingles of that age often show granule loss, brittleness and lifted edges, which make wind damage more likely. A free inspection with photos will tell you where it stands.
