Finally, we take care of registering your manufacturer and workmanship warranties on your behalf, so you have durable, long-term protection and peace of mind.

Do you offer free roof estimates and how do they work?

Yes. A roofer comes out, looks at the roof, and gives you a free written estimate: what it needs and what it costs, in writing, before any work starts. No pressure and no obligation. A signed inspection report for insurance or a real estate closing is a separate paid service.

What should I do if my roof has storm damage?

After a storm, stay safe and take photos of any damage you can see from the ground. Then call (386) 302-9063. A roofer answers the phone 7 to 7, Monday through Saturday. We can tarp an active leak and give you a free written estimate for the repair or replacement. We do not handle insurance claims or advise on coverage.

Can a new roof improve my home’s energy efficiency?

Absolutely. Modern roofing materials and proper installation can help keep your Florida home cooler. We use high-performance shingles and underlayment that reflect heat and resist humidity. Combined with proper attic ventilation and insulation, a new roof can significantly reduce air conditioning costs. Our site notes that all our roofing solutions are designed to provide “energy efficiency” and long-lasting performance.

What kind of warranty coverage do you offer on new roofs?

As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we can offer Owens Corning system warranties on qualifying projects. Your proposal lists the exact manufacturer and workmanship warranty for the package you choose, and we register the warranty for you.

What financing options are available for a new roof?

Financing may be available for qualifying projects. AK Certified Roofing is not the lender; approval, terms and rates are set by the financing provider. We can also explain the My Safe Florida Home program; approval and funding are decided by the program.

Do you offer a roof maintenance plan to protect my home over time?

Yes, our RoofSure Care Plan is a proactive maintenance program for peace of mind. This plan includes annual roof inspections, priority service scheduling, and discounted repairs. Regular checkups catch small issues (like loose shingles or flashing problems) before they turn into leaks. By enrolling in RoofSure Care, you ensure your roof is monitored year-round, which can extend its life and prevent emergency repairs. In short, it’s a way to care for your roof systematically so it continues protecting your home and family well into the future.
