"My new roof installation went smoothly from beginning to end. Sean Waymire did a thorough examination of the job to be done, took exact measurements and gave me a fair price. Jeremy Johnson and a colleague were on site as project managers. The installation team did an excellent job, and were glad to answer my questions as the job progressed.

"I had requested several roofing companies to offer a solution to the old leaking metal ribbed roof over the lanai. Bob Stephens, the Estimator of Kennedy Construction Groups, came out to look at the problem. After his inspection it was determined that the job was not a fit with his company. Even knowing he would not get the job he spent about 45 minutes offering a doable solution, explaining some of the things to be aware of when hiring roofers in FL, gave us a deeper understanding of the use of solar panels on roofs, and some very useful information about government programs to help consumers with the costs of replacing their roofs. He was very professional, knowledgeable & pleasant with a good sense of humor. Kennedy C.G. will be our 1st choice when the time comes to replace the roof on our house, but hopefully that time will not happen for a while."

We are a Roofing and General Contracting company. All types of Roofing, Residential and commercial. We also are custom home builders, additions and re-modelers. Additional email - sasmar@gmail.com.
"Rainier Roofing did a great job of roofing our 100-year-old home in Tampa. Sameer Asmar and Joe Aponte were so professional, friendly and helpful, and they worked with us and persevered through quite a few challenges during the project, making accommodations wherever possible. The crews worked hard and fast. There was a lot more wood replacement needed than anyone imagined before the old roof was removed. One day an unexpected, fast-moving heavy rainstorm came through as they hurried to get the tarps over the exposed rafters. In addition, after roofing the main house, the work on the garage had to be delayed for a few months due to a separate construction permit issue on the garage structure itself (not related to the roof). But through all of the challenges, they continued to work with us until everything was complete and looking fantastic. They also did an excellent job of cleaning up at the end of each phase, and they reinstalled the gutters properly. I highly recommend Rainier Roofing."

Covenant Roofing are the leaders in quality roofing! With 30 years of experience, Covenant Roofing and Construction strives for honesty, integrity and above all else, quality and customer satisfaction. We specialize in asphalt shingle, metal roofs and single ply roofing systems.
"I was amazed at how great my whole experience was with Covenant Roofing! They showed up on Monday Morning did a complete tear off, replaced the plywood which was all soft due to many hurricanes and had the metal on and completed by the end of the day. I had never dealt with a roofing company before, so I did my homework and went with the company due to their high ratings across the board. It wasn't cheap, but that's not necessarily what I was looking for. Quality work with a company that has a history in the area, proven track record and a roof that comes with a guarantee. They hit all of my expectations and I couldn't be happier. I can again feel secure in my home without the worry of leaks. I appreciate the company and the team that did such a wonderful job and they will always receive my highest recommendation if anyone asks who did my roof. My deepest thanks goes out to the whole team!"

"Andrey and his associate came out and in less than a day repaired the cracks in my chimney and re stucco d the top half. He told me he's be back to paint on Tuesday and showed up right when he said he would. This would have been a 5 rating if when it came time to pay they accepted credit cards as they listing shows. Andrey said they only accepted checks at this time, so reluctantly I gave him one. It throws my budget off as I was planning to have to pay the full amount next month, and get some travel miles in addition. If they are no longer accepting credit card payments they should update their listing and web site. It was worth the price and they did good work, but this left a bad taste in the end"

When properly installed, synthetic cedar shake roofing lasts 30 to 50 years or more, substantially outlasting natural cedar's 15 to 30-year lifespan. Environmental factors like UV exposure, temperature fluctuations, and moisture levels influence actual performance.
Modern synthetic materials resist common problems affecting natural wood, including insect infestation, fungal growth, and splitting from repeated expansion and contraction cycles.
Synthetic cedar shake roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to natural wood alternatives. Occasional visual inspections, particularly after severe weather events, help identify any displaced or damaged sections requiring attention. Periodic removal of accumulated debris from valleys and gutters prevents water backup issues.
Unlike natural cedar, synthetic products don't require treatments against mold, mildew, or insects, significantly reducing ongoing maintenance requirements.
Many synthetic cedar shake products incorporate substantial recycled content in their manufacturing process. Their extended lifespan reduces replacement frequency and associated resource consumption. Unlike natural cedar, synthetic products don't require chemical preservatives that can leach into the environment.
Several manufacturers have obtained environmental certifications for their products, documenting their reduced ecological impact compared to traditional alternatives.
Synthetic cedar shakes are engineered specifically to withstand challenging environmental conditions. Their composition provides exceptional resistance to high winds, hailstone impacts, and temperature extremes. Unlike natural wood, these materials resist moisture absorption that leads to warping and cracking.
When properly installed with appropriate underlayment, synthetic cedar shake systems provide reliable protection in diverse climate conditions from desert heat to arctic cold.
