Comprehensive Residential Roofing Services by Swordsmen Roofing

Swordsmen Roofing provides a full range of residential roofing services to protect your home. From routine repairs and leak response to full replacements and roof rejuvenation, we cover the needs of older and newer homes across the region.

Our workmanship focuses on long-term performance, not quick fixes. We inspect underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and roofing materials to recommend durable solutions that reduce the chance of repeat visits and lower lifecycle costs for homeowners.

A proper roof replacement starts with a full inspection and a detailed plan. We remove damaged materials, correct decking or substrate issues, and install systems designed for Florida's sun, humidity, and wind. The goal is a watertight envelope and improved energy performance.

When a complete replacement is needed, our crews use best practices and certified installers to ensure every component performs. That produces a roof that looks great, resists algae growth, and provides quieter interior spaces during storms and heat waves.

Quick, effective repairs stop small problems from becoming costly failures. We stabilize leaks, replace damaged shingles, fix flashing, and restore proper drainage. Our response process is organized to minimize disruption and document repairs for insurance claims or resale.

Regular maintenance extends roof life and keeps warranties valid. We offer inspection plans, cleaning to reduce algae and debris, and targeted rejuvenation treatments that can extend serviceable life at a lower cost than replacement when appropriate.

Maintenance visits include checking seals, gutters, and vents, and verifying that attic ventilation supports cooler interiors. These steps protect your investment and help reduce cooling demand during hot Florida summers.

  • Seasonal inspections and documentation
  • Algae-resistant cleaning and treatments

Modern asphalt shingles offer improved wind resistance, algae protection, and reflective options that can lower attic temperatures. Proper installation, underlayment, and ventilation make a big difference in real-world performance and expected lifespan for these roofs.

Shingle systems can be paired with cool roof coatings and ridge ventilation to reduce HVAC loads. Our technicians match the right product to your home and climate exposure to deliver lasting performance without unnecessary cost.

Metal and tile provide exceptional longevity and wind performance when installed with HVHZ-compliant attachments. Composite luxury roofing replicates slate or shake with less weight and minimal upkeep, ideal for historic homes or high-end replacements.

Energy-efficient roofing can start paying back during the first summers by reflecting radiant heat and improving attic ventilation. We specify reflective shingles, coatings, or air barriers that support lower cooling bills and greater comfort for the whole house.

Choosing an energy-focused system can also align with tax incentives or insurance discounts in some areas. We help homeowners evaluate upfront costs against projected savings to find the best long-term investment.

  • Cool roof coatings and barriers
  • Ventilation upgrades for energy savings

Flat and low-slope roofs require specialized systems for water management and long-term durability. We install TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing with attention to drains, scuppers, and perimeter details for lasting performance.

Preventive maintenance and warranty programs are crucial for commercial roofs. We create maintenance plans that extend system life and provide regular performance documentation to building owners and managers.

Large projects demand strict safety and quality controls. Our project managers coordinate scheduling, material delivery, inspections, and safety plans to keep work efficient and compliant with local regulations and industry best practices.

To discuss a commercial estimate or timeline, contact 833-791-7377 and we will assign a project manager to review your building details and propose a staged plan that reduces operational impact.

Commercial owners benefit from robust warranties and clear maintenance responsibilities. We help specify manufacturer warranties and workmanship coverage and explain how routine care preserves both warranty validity and property value.
