No Deposit Required — You Only Pay When You’re Satisfied
After A Storm, We're Still Here
Out-of-town crews show up knocking on doors after a hurricane and disappear once the check clears. We’re a local Fort Lauderdale contractor — same office, same license number, before and after the storm.
Stabilize First, Repair Second
Our first priority after a storm is stopping further damage — tarping exposed areas and securing loose materials — before scheduling the permanent repair or replacement your roof actually needs.

“Ricketts handled our roof repair after a bad storm and made the whole process easy — showed up when they said they would, explained what was actually wrong, and kept the property clean every day. Would recommend them to anyone in South Florida.”
