Roofing by Curry, also known as "Why Worry - Call Curry" is Bradenton and Sarasota's most trusted name in residential roofing! We specialize in roof leak repair, roof replacements, and new construction of tile, metal and shingle roofs. Roofing by Curry is Fully Insured and Operating with two active Florida State Roofing Licenses CCC1325654 & CCC1325849
"The job was done professionally and on schedule. Excellent work and excellent warrantee. Only problem was their job estimate significantly underestimated the final cost. The problem was that the estimator only saw one roof layer when there were two. One would assume that a trained estimator would know this. They charged extra for removing the second layer, which i found out about after the job was in process. Also, beware of gutter guards, which may need to be removed. If your guards are expensive, make sure reinstallation is included in the job estimate."

Our licensee, Melvin (Gene) Kennedy, has 25 years experience in all aspects of contracting and building. We are the home of the 17 year leak guarantee, which is the highest in the industry.

Far from hiring temporary labor or day workers, everyone on our crews is a stable, solid employee who works for us on a regular basis in their field of expertise. It is our desire to achieve 100% customer satisfaction in each and every one of our interactions with our customers.
"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."

If more than 30% of your slate roof is damaged, it's time to consider a full replacement. This will prevent further deterioration and avoid costly recurring repairs. A professional slate inspection (costing between $130 and $360) can confirm whether repairs are sufficient or if a full roof replacement is the better option.
A slate roof can last anywhere from 60 to 150 years, depending on factors like installation quality, regular maintenance and repairs, and local weather conditions. Compared to materials like clay and concrete, which often last around 50 years, a well-maintained slate roof offers superior longevity, durability, and long-lasting aesthetic appeal.
Yes, you can use temporary patch solutions, such as roofing cement or patchwork, to provide immediate relief for minor leaks or underlayment issues observed from inside your home. However, these provisional fixes do not replace the need for a permanent, professional exterior repair, which is necessary to ensure the long-term integrity and weather resistance of your slate roof.
