Everything Your Roof Needs Under One Company

Whether you need storm damage repairs, a complete roof replacement, or just want someone to check things out before hurricane season, we handle it all.

We work with every type of roofing material that makes sense in Southwest Florida—from traditional shingles to metal roofing that stands up to high winds. Our team knows which materials work best in San Carlos Park’s climate and which ones cause problems down the road.

Most importantly, we understand Florida’s insurance requirements and building codes. When Hurricane Ian hit, we helped dozens of families navigate the 25% rule and other regulations that determine whether you get a repair or a full replacement.

Most residential roof replacements in San Carlos Park take 2-4 days, depending on the size of your home and the roofing material you choose. Weather is the biggest factor that affects timing. During Florida’s rainy season, we might need to pause work to protect your home from moisture. We always tarp and secure your roof at the end of each day, so you’re never left exposed. The permitting process usually takes longer than the actual work. We handle all the permits and inspections required by Lee County, which typically adds 1-2 weeks to the overall timeline from start to finish.
Insurance coverage depends on what caused the damage and the age of your roof. Storm damage from hurricanes, wind, and hail is typically covered, but normal wear and tear isn’t. Florida’s insurance laws changed recently, affecting how much damage is required before you can get a full roof replacement instead of just repairs. The old 25% rule has been modified, and insurance companies are more strict about what they’ll approve. We help you document damage properly and understand what your policy covers. If your claim gets denied or lowballed, we know how to present the evidence that gets insurance companies to reconsider.
The best material depends on your budget, your home’s style, and what matters most to you. Each option has advantages in Southwest Florida’s climate. Asphalt shingles are the most affordable and work well for most San Carlos Park homes. They typically last 20-25 years and handle our weather reasonably well. Metal roofing costs more upfront but lasts 40-50 years and reflects heat better, which can lower your cooling costs. Tile roofing is popular in our area because it’s hurricane-resistant and energy-efficient. It’s more expensive than shingles but less than metal, and it gives your home that Florida look that many homeowners want.
Age is the biggest factor. If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re having multiple problems, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. Missing or damaged shingles, leaks in multiple areas, or granules washing off into your gutters are signs that your roof is reaching the end of its useful life. But sometimes what looks like a major problem is actually a simple fix. That’s why we always do a thorough inspection before recommending anything. We’ll show you exactly what we found and explain whether repairs will actually solve your problems or if you’re just delaying the inevitable.
Yes, we help San Carlos Park homeowners navigate the entire insurance process. We’ve dealt with every major insurance company that operates in Southwest Florida. We document damage properly, provide detailed estimates that match what adjusters expect to see, and know how to present information that supports your claim. If your claim gets denied, we help you understand why and what options you have. Florida law gives you one year from the date of storm damage to file a claim. Don’t wait—insurance companies are more likely to approve claims that are filed promptly with proper documentation.
Our inspection covers your entire roofing system, not just the obvious problem areas. We check shingles, flashing, gutters, ventilation, and the structural elements we can see from the outside. We’ll also go in your attic if possible to look for signs of leaks, proper ventilation, and insulation issues. This gives us a complete picture of your roof’s condition and helps us spot problems before they cause damage inside your home. After the inspection, we’ll show you what we found and explain what it means in plain language. If repairs are needed, we’ll prioritize them so you know what needs immediate attention and what can wait.
