Here at Forrest and Son, we thrive for perfection. We know you work hard for your money and care about your home. When we're called out to your location, we do not automatically look to replace your roof. Our goal, if possible, is to extend the useful life of your existing roof. We specialize in roof leak repairs, and roof coatings, to extend the life of the roof you have. If that is not a possibility, our crew is more than capable of replacing it if need be. I'm a fourth-generation roofer of a family-owned and operated business. We do not use salesmen, you will always be dealing with an owner, and we treat your home like it's our very own. Our phones are always open in case of emergency and we give warranties that we stand by 100 percent Owner Henry Forrest
"Henry Forrest supervised two crews of roofers who took care of problems in four locations swiftly and efficiently. This was first-class roofing at a fair price. Henry explained what was going on with the water in each location. He is in the third generation of Forrest & Son roofing contractors and a fourth is coming up. He is clear about what he is doing and upfront about how much everything will cost. He has an uncanny ability to predict how long each phase of the work will take. He inspected the whole roof and gave us a 5-year guarantee on his work. One of his hard-working crews stayed till late to finish the work in one day. Henry Forrest came back the next day to prime all the wood, even though he did not expect that to be part of the work. We are very pleased with the work and the way it was conducted."

So why did they show up in the recommend list? On to the next one."

Kennedy Construction Groups, LLC, is a licensed building (CBC1254604) and roofing (CCC1327709) contractor. 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. Our employees must go through extensive training, or have provable experience, in every aspect of any position theyre seeking with us. 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."

Asphalt roof shingles last 15 to 30 years, and high-quality materials can last up to 50 years. Their lifespan depends on factors like your local climate, the quality of the materials, proper installation, effective attic ventilation, and regular maintenance. By taking care of your roof, you can ensure it protects your home for many years.
Yes, repairing your asphalt shingles is worth it when the damage is minor or localized. Prompt repairs help maintain your roof's integrity without the cost of a full replacement. However, if there's extensive damage or significant wear, you might need to consider replacing the entire roof. A professional inspection can help you decide the best course of action.
When choosing a roofer, be sure to ask if they are licensed and insured, and whether they will secure all necessary permits. Find out if they offer a comprehensive warranty on their work. It's also important to ask how they will handle debris, protect your property and landscaping, and manage unexpected weather delays. Additionally, ask if the work will be done by their own crew or subcontractors.
Yes, you can replace individual shingles if the damage is limited to just a few. This allows you to fix minor issues without the expense of a full roof replacement. However, if there’s widespread damage or your shingles show significant wear, it might be time to consider replacing the entire roof. A professional roofer can inspect your roof and recommend the best course of action.
