Hurricane Season Doesn't Wait — And Neither Should Your Roof

After a storm, out-of-town crews show up knocking on doors and disappear once the check clears. We’re still here — same office, same license, same crew — long after the trucks with out-of-state plates leave.

Repair Or Replace?

Signs It's Time For A Roof Replacement

Not every roofing issue can be solved with a patch. Here’s what we look for during an inspection that usually points to a full replacement instead of another repair.

Widespread Deterioration

Curling, cracking, granule loss, or cracked tiles spread across large sections of the roof.

Frequent Leaks

Recurring leaks in multiple zones often mean the underlayment has failed.

Sagging Or Soft Spots

Sections that dip or feel spongy underfoot can signal rot or structural damage.

Exposed Underlayment

Missing shingles or tiles that expose the base layers let moisture in fast.

Extensive Storm Damage

After a major hurricane or hail event, impact damage can be too widespread to patch.

15–20+ Years Old

South Florida heat and UV exposure accelerate wear on older roofs.

Common Questions

Roofing & Construction, Answered Directly

As a general rule, if damage is limited to a small area — a few tiles, a section of flashing, one soft spot — repair is usually the right call. Replacement makes more sense when the roof is near the end of its material’s lifespan, damage is spread across multiple areas, or there’s evidence of ongoing leaks into the deck. A free inspection gives you a straight answer either way.
Yes. We respond to active leaks and storm damage around the clock, including tarping and stabilization to stop water intrusion until permanent repairs can be scheduled. Call (954) 588-5670 any time.

Yes — Ricketts Construction holds Florida contractor licenses CCC1331129 (roofing) and CBC1259476 (building/general contracting), and carries full insurance. Ask your project manager for documentation before work begins.

Yes. We document the damage, provide a detailed scope, and work directly with your insurance adjuster to make sure the claim reflects what the roof actually needs.
Be cautious of door-to-door crews with out-of-state plates offering same-day contracts. Ask for a Florida license number, a local physical address, and proof of insurance before signing anything.
