"Avenue Roofing Review If you are in or around Jacksonville, FL and you find that you need your roof repaired – use Avenue Roofing! I have truly never, ever, worked with a more professional, competent, and thorough company!! SHORT VERSION: Everyone at Avenue Roofing – Devon, Jessica, and Marc – that I interacted with was truly outstanding and highly responsive. I believe that I am very demanding and have high expectations when it comes to work like this. Avenue Roofing continually exceeded my expectation throughout the entire project. With their help and guidance, we were able to navigate all the obstacles and unique aspects of replacing the damaged roof. If it had not been for Avenue Roofing, the insurance company would have paid to have 25 shingles replaced on the house. With Avenue Roofing’s advice and recommendations, the roofs on both the house and the detached shed were completely replaced – the cost of which was paid for by the insurance policy. And, by the way, this was also done long distance from Ohio and Texas! What more could you ask for? Avenue Roofing was there for us ever step of the way. Through emails, texts and even a Zoom video call, they kept us fully informed and provided numerous pictures of the project during all phases. When it comes to customer service, Avenue Roofing 5-star rating should be at least a 10! So, as I said – if you need roofing repair work – make Avenue Roofing your first and only call. They will get the job done right, in a timely and professional manner. If you want to know why I am so emphatic about my assessment of this company and its personnel, grab yourself a cup a coffee and read the long version of this review. LONG VERSION: Background – My older sister (aka Florida-sister) owns a home in Jacksonville, FL. Due to some medical issues, she has now moved from her home to an assisted living facility. My younger sister has Power of Attorney for her, but she lives in Ohio (aka Ohio-sister). I am the “highly unpaid” technical/financial advisor for both of them, and I live in Texas. So far, so good? Situation - In early February of this year, a neighbor in Jacksonville, called my Ohio-sister and told her that he had seen some shingles on the ground around my Florida-sister’s home. Ohio-sister called me, and I started looking for a local company that could help us fix the roof. Based on my online review of roofing companies in Jacksonville, I found Avenue Roofing. Reviews on their web site were impressive, and being retired Air Force, I liked the idea that the company was veteran owned. I called Avenue Roofing and explained the situation. From that point on, I knew I was working with professionals that had our best interests at heart. Although, I thought they would just bill us for some minor roofing repair, they convinced me to file a claim with the insurance company, which we did. Insurance Company - As impressed as we are with Avenue Roofing, we have been totally disappointed in the insurance company. It took them two attempts over multiple weeks to actually get someone to inspect the roof. Avenue Roofing was there during the first appointment which the insurance inspector cancelled after the time he was supposed to be on site, and they were also present when the second inspector showed up the following week. It might be of interest to someone looking to have their roof repaired that Avenue Roofing did this at no cost and with no contract in place! The insurance inspector filed his report, and the desk adjustor for the insurance company called me about two weeks after the claim had been filed. His assessment of the repairs was to replace 25 shingles on the house and 3 shingles on the shed. He then transferred the costs of these repairs to Florida-sister’s bank account and was ready to close the claim. Avenue Roofing Comes to the Rescue - When I explained what had happened to Devon Gray, president of Avenue Roofing, he recommended that we immediately request a second inspection. I really didn’t think that it would help but following his advice (highly recommended), I made the call to the insurance company. When I asked about scheduling a second inspection, the agent asked if I had any information about the damages from Avenue Roofing because he had no report/pictures from their inspector to reference. Once again, the professionalism and thoroughness of Avenue Roofing came through – I immediately sent him a 90-page report that Avenue Roofing had assembled for the roof inspection conducted in concert with the insurance company’s inspector. Suffice it to say, the insurance company had a change of heart. With no other information than what Avenue Roofing provided in their report, the insurance company re-evaluated the claim and decided that both the house and the shed required a new roof. Go figure! You would think that this is where the saga might end --- nope, read on! Long-Distance Paperwork - It turns out that the state of Florida requires a notarized signature from the homeowner to allow a new roof to be installed on a dwelling. Well, how do you do that if the attorney of record (Ohio-sister) lives in Ohio? No worry, Avenue Roofing was able to put together a Zoom video call with a local notary and through the magic of the internet, we were able to get the necessary notarized signatures so that work could begin. Through the scheduling, preparation, installation and clean up, Avenue Roofing kept us fully informed as to the status of the job, including pictures. Project Complete – Approximately two months after reporting the missing shingles to the insurance company, we have received the final report from Avenue Roofing which includes the Paid in Full Final Invoice, the 5 Year Labor Warranty, and the GAF System Plus Manufacturer's Warranty for the shingles. With the advice and guidance that Avenue provided during this entire process, we went from getting 25 shingles replaced to having the house and shed entirely reroofed. Oh, and by the way, while Avenue Roofing was removing the old shingles, they discovered over 17 pieces of rotten wood which had to be replaced in the process -- none of which would have been detected if only 25 shingles had been replaced. Again, what more could you ask for? If you think of something, I am sure that Devon, Jessica, and Marc will make it happen! Dr. Joseph A. Morgan, ‘80 Professor Emeritus, Texas A&M University"

"To replace a roof on your home can be an overwhelming event. But the professionals at Total Home Roofing bring unparalleled experience to the job that clears the fog of uncertainty about replacing your roof. During our first visit from Travis, he walked us through what to expect with replacing our roof. He was available for follow-up questions and was always honest and clear about the process. After the job was complete, he even called back to make sure we were satisfied, and everything was as we discussed. Then came the actual replacement of the roof! The Supervisor of our project was Eduardo, who was just as amazing as Travis. He was constantly communicating about what was happening and what to expect during the process. He let us know that if we had any questions or concerns, to contact him, and he would resolve or clarify so we were fully informed. Anytime I called Eduardo, he answered the phone and was available. Then if that wasn’t enough, I received daily updates from the main office of what was going on the day before and what to expect that day. Total Home Roofing made this daunting process less stressful. They went out of their way to communicate and walk with us through this event. Thank you, Total Home Roofing, Travis, and Eduardo!"

"They called me in advance to let me know the roof installation schedule - from the dumpster, the materials, when the crew was going to start, when the inspections were happening then clean up and dumpster pick up. The experience with J&M went smooth and was painless. The final outcome was that I have the best looking, secure, safe roof on thew block!"

"I was immediately impressed but I have since had a lot of plants die and I'm relatively certain that the chemicals they put on the roof might have caused this. I contacted Charles and he told me to go ahead and replace the plants and that he'd take care of the cost but I haven't done it yet, as he told me to call him back on the 5th (he was out of town). The work they did was excellent so I'm"

"Over all the project went well. There was some frustration on our end trying to get the job started, however, there were over 100,000 roof claims in Jacksonville after Hurricane Matthew and only 3000 roofers in the general area. I vented often to them and they were responsive and helped patch issues while waiting to get our job started. When the job got started, they moved it along quickly and did an excellent job from start to finish. This was a roof replacement based on insurance adjusters assessment from the hurricane damage. Roberts Handled all the processing of the paperwork with the insurance company and we just paid them the deductible. Total cost of the job was $26000. The job also included some internal Drywall water damage repair. The subcontractor they used for the work also did an excellent job. Hurricane deductible was $8000."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Fernandina Beach, FL

A slate roof features thin tiles of natural stone installed over a solid deck and underlayment. Formed under intense heat and pressure, slate is exceptionally durable and delivers a distinctive, high-end look. Because the material weighs far more than asphalt, most homes need added structural support before installation. 

While upfront costs are higher and routine inspections are a must, many homeowners choose slate for its unmatched longevity and curb appeal.

Slate stands out for its 50- to 200-year life span, low maintenance, and classic aesthetic. It’s fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and often boosts resale value. 

On the flip side, slate runs far more per square foot than asphalt, weighs up to four times as much, and demands a contractor who specializes in the material. Tiles can crack on impact, and repairs cost more because the work is slow and precise. If your budget and structure can handle it, slate delivers top-tier performance for generations.

Natural and synthetic slate aim for a premium, stone-like appearance, whereas asphalt focuses on affordability. Real slate runs $10 to $30 per square foot installed and lasts up to 200 years; synthetic slate costs $10 to $15 and tops out at 50 to 100 years. 

Standard asphalt averages $3 to $8 per square foot and needs replacement every 20 to 30 years. If you want the slate look without the full price tag—or extra roof weight—synthetic is a solid middle ground.

With routine inspections and prompt repairs, a natural slate roof can last well beyond 100 years; some hard-slate installations reach the 200-year mark. Soft slate falls in the 50- to 125-year range, and synthetic products last 50 to 100 years. 

Remember, flashing, fasteners, and the underlying structure may need attention sooner than the stone itself. Severe hail or fallen limbs can also shorten life span, so schedule periodic checkups with a slate-qualified roofer.

If you plan to stay in your home long term—or want a standout selling point—slate delivers strong value. Although installation costs are high, owners often recoup 60% to 70% at resale and enjoy lower replacement cycles than asphalt. The stone’s durability, energy efficiency, and timeless curb appeal also appeal to eco-conscious buyers because fewer roofs end up in landfills. Just be sure your framing can handle the weight and that you budget for occasional specialty repairs.

Skip the DIY climb if you have a slate roof. Slate may be tough against the weather, but a single misplaced step can crack a tile and create a leak path. The surface also turns slick when wet, upping the risk of injury. Professional crews use staging and hook ladders that spread weight across multiple slates, protecting both the roof and the worker. To inspect or repair slate, call a roofer who specializes in the material.
