Pick the surface. The engineering stays the same.
Replacement, repair, inspection and upkeep.
Roof replacement
A full replacement starts with a tear-off, so we can see the deck. We repair rotten or loose decking, then install underlayment, a secondary water barrier, the new shingle, tile or metal surface, and new flashings and vents. We do not install metal over old shingles.
Shingle, tile or metal: the comparisonRoof repair
Leaks, cracked or slipped tile, missing shingles, loose flashing, seam and fastener problems on metal, and storm damage. If a repair won't last, we say so.
Repairs and serviceRoof inspections
A photo-documented review of the surface, flashing, decking, penetrations, drainage and ventilation. Most take 45 to 90 minutes. You get a plain-English report you can use for an insurance claim, a home sale or a repair plan.
Roof inspectionsMaintenance
SmartCare is a yearly membership with an inspection, a photo report and a Roof Health Score. Plans start at $199 a year, and any roof can enroll, including roofs we did not install.
SmartCare plansHomes, communities and commercial buildings.
Homeowners
Shingle, tile and metal reroofs and repairs on single-family homes. We handle the permit and, where your community requires it, the HOA architectural review package.
Buyers and sellers
An inspection before closing or listing shows what the roof needs now and what can wait. Insurers often ask about roof age and condition, and the photo report answers both.
Condo, HOA and multifamily boards
Tile and shingle roofs on communities, with board-ready budget documents. Planning ahead is how boards avoid a surprise assessment.
HOA and condo roofing guideCommercial owners and managers
Flat and low-slope roofs in TPO, modified bitumen, standing-seam metal and coatings, plus pitched commercial roofs in shingle or tile. Work is phased around tenants.

What goes on under every surface.
SmartSeal™
A secondary water barrier bonded to the deck. If the primary surface is ever breached, the water still has nowhere to go.
SmartVents™
Balanced intake and exhaust that pulls heat and moisture out of the attic, so the assembly stays dry and the AC works less.
Solar-ready
Attachment points and load paths planned at install, whether panels go on this year or in ten.
One warranty
One contractor stands behind the install: 5 years of workmanship coverage on every roof, and 10 years on Future-Proof roofs. Manufacturers back the materials. No finger pointing between trades.
Four steps from estimate to final inspection.
1. Estimate and scope
We look at the roof, then write a detailed scope with line-item pricing and more than one system option. Estimates are free.
2. Permit and approvals
We pull the permit with the right city or county office and book every inspection. If you have an HOA, we prepare the architectural review package.
3. Tear-off and install
Old roofing comes off and the deck is inspected and repaired. Then underlayment, SmartSeal, SmartVents and the new surface go on. Crews are supervised daily, with photo updates.
4. Final inspection and paperwork
The building department inspects the finished roof. You get the closing documents, and we coordinate a wind mitigation inspection so your insurer sees the new roof.
What Florida requires on a roof.
Which Florida Building Code applies
Your permit is reviewed under the code edition in force when you apply. The 8th Edition (2023) applies through December 30, 2026. The 9th Edition (2026) is scheduled to take effect on December 31, 2026, so a reroof permitted after that date follows the new edition.
Wind speeds and FBC wind zones
Design wind speeds come from ASCE 7 as adopted in the Florida Building Code. They change by address and by building risk category, and the building department can give you the number for your lot. Miami-Dade and Broward counties make up the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), which has stricter roofing rules.
Product approval
Roofing products sold for Florida projects need a Florida Product Approval. In the HVHZ, they need a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA). The approved product and its installation requirements go on your permit, and the install has to match them.
Permits and inspections
A reroof needs a permit from the building department that covers your address. Inspections usually happen at the deck, after underlayment and at final, but each office sets its own list. Some Altamonte Springs mailing addresses sit in unincorporated Seminole County, so we confirm the office before we quote.
The 25% rule has an exception
Under Florida's building code, replacing more than 25% of a roof section within 12 months means the whole section has to meet current code. Since 2022, roofs built or replaced under the 2007 code or later can have just the damaged area repaired.
Roof age and insurance
Florida insurers can't refuse to write or renew a homeowners policy only because the roof is under 15 years old. Older roofs may need an inspection first. A wind mitigation inspection records deck attachment, roof-to-wall ties and secondary water resistance, which can lower your windstorm premium.
Read the wind mitigation guideWhere Florida roof jobs go wrong.
Failed or delayed inspections
Typical causes are a product without a current approval, missing paperwork, or deck attachment that doesn't match the permit. We build the permit package first and book each inspection ourselves.
Rot found after tear-off
Bad decking shows up once the old roof is off. We inspect the deck during tear-off, repair it, and document what we found before the new roof goes on.
Lost wind mitigation credits
A new roof changes your wind mitigation form. We coordinate a licensed inspector after the work passes final inspection, so the new roof gets counted.
Insurance trouble over roof age
An older roof can trigger an inspection request at renewal. We can inspect it and hand you the photo report, so you know where the roof stands before the insurer asks.
Leaks at vents and flashing
Many leaks start at penetrations, not in the field of the roof. New flashings and vents go in with every replacement, and repairs target the actual entry point.
Trades pointing at each other
Roof, windows and exterior repairs often get split among contractors. One licensed company handles the envelope, with one warranty and one COI.
