Roofing Services in Lee County, One Crew Per Job

What we do

Our roofing services in Lee County come down to four kinds of work: putting on a new roof, fixing one that leaks, getting a house through the days after a hurricane, and pulling together the records an insurer asks for. What ties them together is who does the work. The person who climbs up for the first look is the crew lead who runs your job, so nothing gets lost between the quote and the roof.

A new roof from the deck up

Most of what decides how a roof holds up in a storm is hidden once the job is done. A roof replacement strips the old covering to bare wood so the crew can check every sheet, swap the soft ones and nail the deck to today’s code before anything new goes on. Then come the sealed seams, the underlayment, the flashing and the covering you picked: architectural shingle, concrete tile or standing seam metal. The written price lists each of those on its own line, and the per-sheet price for any rotten decking is written down before work starts, so a bad surprise under the old roof never becomes a surprise on the bill.

Repairs that start where the water starts

A stain on the ceiling usually sits well downhill from the opening that let the water in. A roof repair begins in the attic and on the roof, following the path back to its real source: a split pipe boot, a lifted shingle tab, tile underlayment that has dried out, or the tie-in where a lanai roof meets the main house. We photograph the opening before touching it and again once it is fixed. If the roof around the repair has plenty of life left, you hear that. If it doesn’t, you hear that too, before you spend money patching it.

Hurricane damage, covered first and written down after

After a big blow, the first job is keeping the next rain out. Our hurricane damage visits put a tarp on any opening, held down with battens so it doesn’t flap loose overnight. Then the crew walks every slope and writes up what the wind did, with dated photos, including the slopes that came through fine. That report matters later, when you or your insurer need to know what was storm damage and what was already there.

Paperwork for your insurer

An insurer wants evidence it can read quickly. Our insurance claim paperwork is a dated photo set, measurements, a written damage report and an itemized repair price, put together so you can forward it as it is. If you ask, someone will be on the roof when the adjuster visits to point out what the photos show. Your coverage, the negotiation and your deductible stay between you and your insurer. Florida law keeps roofers out of all three, and we would rather keep it that way.

How booking works for any of the four

Every job starts the same way. You book a free inspection with the form on this page or by phone, and a crew lead comes out, usually within a few working days, or sooner after a storm. They look at the roof, the attic and the ceilings below, take photos and send a written price. No deposit is due until the permit is issued, and on the day the job starts, the crew lead you met is the one standing in your driveway.

Towns we cover

We take all four services to Fort Myers, Cape Coral and Estero. Each has its own mix of roofs and its own building office, and the areas page sorts out which is which.

    Roof replacement

    Shingle, concrete tile and metal re-roofs in Fort Myers, taken to the deck, re-nailed and sealed to code, with one crew start to finish.

    What decides how a new roof handles a hurricane is mostly underneath it: the deck nailing, the sealed seams and the flashing. We price all of it up front.

Roofer on a brick home during a roof tear-off

Shingle re-roof to the deck with decking swapped at the eaves

Led by Sam, Fort Myers

  1. FoundCurling shingles on the west slope and soft plywood along the eaves where the old roof had no drip edge.
  2. FixedTore off to the deck, replaced the soft sheets at the per-sheet price on the quote, re-nailed the rest and laid architectural shingles with new drip edge.
  3. ResultDry eaves, a fascia that no longer stains, and a final bill that matched the written price line for line.

An older shingle roof near McGregor that the owner knew was getting tired. The tear-off showed why the fascia kept staining: with no drip edge, water had been running behind the gutter for years and softening the plywood at the eaves. Those sheets were swapped at the price already on the quote, the rest of the deck was re-nailed to code and the new roof went on over sealed seams.

Low-slope back room roof replaced, tie-in to the main roof rebuilt

Led by Jordan, Fort Myers

  1. FoundA ceiling stain in the back room traced to a split seam on the low-slope roof and a tie-in to the main roof sealed only with mastic.
  2. FixedReplaced the low-slope roof with a new membrane and rebuilt the joint to the main roof with proper step and counter flashing.
  3. ResultNo more drip in the back room through the rest of the rainy season.

A block home off Colonial with a flat-roofed back room added on years after the house was built. The original roof was fine; the add-on was not. Water was getting in at a split seam and at the joint where the two roofs met, which someone had sealed with tar instead of flashing. Jordan priced the add-on roof on its own and rebuilt the tie-in so the two roofs shed water as one.

Insurance claims

Storm paperwork, ready for your insurer

The claim is between you and your insurance company. Our part is the record of what the storm did to your roof, and if you'd like us there when the adjuster comes, we'll be on the roof too.

  1. A photo set you can forward

    Every slope, every cracked or lifted piece and every flashing joint, each picture dated and emailed to you the day we visit.

  2. A report in plain words

    Where the damage is, how it got there and what happens if it waits, written so your insurer can follow it without a phone call.

  3. A price split line by line

    Tear-off, decking, underlayment, roof covering, flashing and the permit, each on its own line, so the numbers are easy to check.

Never on our side of the table: reading your policy, negotiating or settling the claim, or waiving, rebating or covering your deductible.

FAQ

Questions about our services

Ask us anything else on the phone, or on the roof during the free inspection.

Call (239) 555-0158
  • Can one visit cover a repair and a quote for a new roof?

    Yes, and it often should. If the leak you called about sits on a roof that is wearing out everywhere, the crew lead prices both the fix and the re-roof on the same visit, so you can choose with the numbers side by side instead of booking a second appointment.

  • Who will I actually talk to once the job is booked?

    The crew lead who looked at your roof. Their name and mobile number go on the written price, and that same person calls about the permit, the start date and the weather. You don't get handed from a salesperson to an office to a crew you've never met.

  • Do you work on lanai and screen-room roofs too?

    We work on the roofed part of a lanai and on the joint where it ties into the house, which is where a lot of leaks start. Screen panels and aluminium cage frames belong to a screen company, and we'll tell you if we see damage there.
