That commitment means fewer surprises, predictable maintenance costs, and a roof that performs for years. We also provide clear scopes, schedules, and maintenance recommendations so clients can plan with confidence.

Our services include roof replacement, repairs, preventive maintenance, and rejuvenation for both commercial and residential properties. We install TPO, metal, asphalt, and composite systems tailored to each building's load, slope, and planned maintenance schedule, providing flexible options for every need.

We work closely with facility teams to coordinate deliveries and installations to minimize downtime and keep operations moving. Our focus is efficient scheduling and clean job sites that respect tenants and operations.

Clients choose us for our proven track record, responsive service, and clear budgeting. With disciplined project management and partnerships with American-made manufacturers, we deliver high-performance systems that are energy-efficient and impact resistant.

Our emphasis on quality and transparency helps owners protect investments, reduce energy costs, and meet regulatory requirements through smart material choices and reliable execution.

Choosing the right roofing system begins with understanding performance needs. We analyze roof age, substrate condition, drainage, and energy goals to recommend systems that balance cost and life expectancy. Our materials are selected for durability and thermal performance.

From reflective single-ply membranes to architectural metal and composite tiles, we aim to match system selection to building use and maintenance capability. Each option supports Hurricane-Resistant Roofing & Wind-Zone Compliance when properly specified and installed.

TPO systems offer excellent reflectivity and seam performance for low-slope commercial roofs. Properly installed TPO can reduce cooling loads and deliver energy savings, often offsetting initial investment through lower utility bills over time.

Reflective roof coatings and membranes are an effective way to improve thermal performance and extend life. For support or to schedule an evaluation call 833-791-7377 to discuss reflective options and expected return on investment.

Metal roofing provides exceptional wind resistance, durability, and a long service life when paired with proper attachment methods. For design-driven properties, composite and architectural products offer varied looks without compromising performance.

We source materials from trusted American manufacturers and apply installation techniques tailored to local wind zones, ensuring systems can withstand Florida's unique climate stresses while delivering a strong aesthetic presence.

Selecting the right system requires weighing factors like slope, insulation, wind ratings, and maintenance. Our advisors conduct on-site assessments and provide comparisons that outline life expectancy, cost, and expected energy impacts to support informed decisions.

  • TPO: Reflective, economical, good for large flats
  • Metal: Long life, excellent wind resistance
  • Asphalt/Composite: Cost-effective for sloped roofs
  • Coatings: Rejuvenation option for aging membranes

We help owners choose solutions that align with budgets and maintenance practices, delivering a clear path to improved roof performance and asset protection.

System Typical Life Best Use
TPO 20-30 years Low-slope commercial, energy savings
Metal 30-50 years High durability, wind zones
Composite/Asphalt 15-30 years Residential and sloped commercial roofs
Installation, Project Management, and Workmanship Guarantees

Successful roofing projects rely on disciplined project management and certified installers. We manage timelines, procurement, and inspections, ensuring installations meet manufacturer standards and local code requirements for quality and safety.

As a TAMKO Diamond Contractor, we provide exclusive 25-year workmanship warranties on qualifying assemblies, delivering extra confidence. Our Brava Preferred status also brings architectural-grade solutions for clients seeking premium finishes and durability.

Our crews are trained and certified by manufacturers, and our project managers oversee on-site quality control to ensure compliance and consistent results. These practices shorten punch lists and reduce rework while maintaining high safety standards throughout each project.

For design-focused projects, Brava composite roofing provides durable, architectural-grade options that maintain aesthetics without sacrificing performance. These products are ideal for plazas, office buildings, and historic renovations needing visual authenticity and longevity.

We coordinate color matching, flashing details, and accessory selection to deliver cohesive visual results that stand up to Florida weather and maintenance cycles.

Meeting Wind-Zone Compliance requires careful detailing and correct attachment schedules. Our teams design and install wind-resistant configurations that meet code and reduce uplift risk. For urgent consultations, call 833-791-7377 to arrange an assessment with a wind-zone specialist.

  • Reinforced attachment schedules for certified uplift resistance
  • Specified flashings for openings and edges
  • Inspection reports documenting compliance

Technical documentation and record-keeping are part of every project to support permitting and insurance needs as required by Florida statutes.

Repairs, Rejuvenation, and Routine Maintenance

Timely repairs and planned maintenance extend roof life and protect interiors. We offer responsive emergency repairs, scheduled maintenance, and restorative coating applications that delay costly replacements while improving performance.

Whether patching membrane breaches, replacing flashings, or applying rejuvenation treatments, our approach is diagnostic and preventive, addressing root causes to reduce repeat issues and keep properties protected.

Our repair teams respond quickly to minimize business interruption and water intrusion. We prioritize rapid assessment, temporary containment, and permanent repair solutions to restore protection and prevent secondary damage in occupied facilities.

To schedule a prompt roof check or emergency repair, call our service line at 833-791-7377 and we will mobilize technicians to stabilize the situation and start permanent remediation planning.

Coating systems and rejuvenation treatments can add years to certain roofs, improving reflectivity and sealing minor weathering issues. We evaluate membranes for compatibility and expected life improvement prior to recommending a coating solution.

  • Extend service life by sealing small defects
  • Improve reflectivity to reduce cooling loads
  • Cost-effective option to defer replacement

Our technicians apply coatings under manufacturer specifications to preserve warranties and achieve the expected performance benefits.

Scheduled inspections and maintenance reduce risk and uncover issues early. Our customizable maintenance agreements include periodic inspections, debris removal, flashings checks, and repair allowances to keep roofs operating efficiently.

Regular maintenance lowers lifecycle costs and provides owners with predictable budgeting and reliable performance monitoring across multiple buildings or campus settings.

Compliance, Safety, and Energy Efficiency

Complying with Florida codes and safety standards is foundational. We prepare permitting documentation, coordinate inspections, and implement jobsite safety protocols to protect workers and occupants throughout every phase of work.

Energy efficiency is a core design driver for many clients. Reflective roof choices and insulation improvements contribute to lower energy bills and a reduced operating footprint for warehouses, offices, healthcare facilities, and retail properties.

We handle code compliance, permit submissions, and inspections to ensure projects proceed without regulatory delays. Our team works directly with local authorities and engineers to document wind ratings and attachment methods when required for approvals.

For permitting assistance or to begin a compliance review, contact our permitting coordinator at 833-791-7377 and we will outline necessary documentation and timelines specific to your jurisdiction.

Reflective membranes and coatings reduce rooftop heat gain, improving interior comfort and lowering cooling demand. Over time, these technologies can pay back the initial investment through measurable utility savings at large warehouses and office buildings.

  • Lower cooling costs through reflective surfaces
  • Reduced HVAC load and longer equipment life
  • Improved occupant comfort and environmental benefits

We model expected savings and ROI to help owners make informed choices about reflective systems and insulation upgrades.

Safety guides our field operations, with site-specific plans, fall protection measures, and daily briefings. We coordinate deliveries and install windows of work to reduce interference with operations and minimize risk for building occupants.

Our goal is a safe, efficient jobsite that protects people and property while delivering high-quality roofing results on time and on budget.
