Who We Are

A Roofing Crew Built On Referrals, Not Ad Spend

Long before Roof Repair Smedway had a website, our lead foremen were already climbing ladders across Longboat Key, FL, learning which underlayment holds up against humidity and which fastener pattern actually survives a coastal gust line.

Licensing and insurance aren't a line item we mention once and forget — we keep documentation current and available on request, because a homeowner signing off on a Roofing project deserves proof, not a promise.

A patched flashing that leaks again in eighteen months costs a homeowner more than the first repair ever saved. That's why our Roofing crews follow manufacturer specs on every nail pattern and every underlayment overlap, not just the visible parts.

Problem Signs

How To Tell A Roof Needs Roofing Before It Fails

Most roof failures don't happen overnight — they build quietly for months before a homeowner notices the ceiling stain that finally forces the issue.

Shingle Grit Washing Off

If your downspout discharge looks like sand, the UV-protective coating on your shingles is breaking down faster than it should.

Curling Or Cupping Shingles

Cupped shingles trap moisture underneath instead of shedding it, accelerating rot in the decking below.

Light Visible Through Roof Boards

Small gaps that let light in will let water in during the next heavy rain.

Ceiling Stains Or Sagging

A yellow-brown ring spreading across a ceiling almost always traces back to a roof leak, even if the leak point is several feet away from the stain.

Inconsistent Indoor Temps

Energy bills that creep upward without an obvious reason are worth checking against your roof's condition.

Storm-Stripped Sections

Even one missing shingle can let enough water through to rot the decking underneath within a single storm season.

Our Core Services

The Full Roofing Menu, From Patch To Full Tear-Off

We break our work into distinct service lanes because a wind-lifted ridge cap and a full tear-off need completely different crews, materials, and timelines.

Emergency

Emergency Roof Repair

Active leaks after a storm get a same-day response whenever it's physically possible — a temporary tarp-down first, a permanent fix scheduled right behind it.

Residential

Homeowner Roof Solutions

Residential work covers shingle repair, full re-roofs, ridge and soffit ventilation upgrades, and skylight flashing — whatever the house actually needs.

Commercial

Commercial Roofing Services

We schedule commercial jobs around business hours whenever possible, minimizing disruption to tenants, staff, or foot traffic.

Replacement

Complete Tear-Off & Reroof

Replacement jobs include a detailed material walkthrough so you're choosing a system that fits your climate exposure and budget, not just whatever's on the truck.

Inspection

Roof Inspection & Maintenance

Scheduled maintenance visits catch loose flashing and clogged valleys before the next storm turns them into an emergency call.

Specialized

Skylight, Chimney & Flashing Repair

Chimney crickets, skylight seals, and valley flashing are common leak points that general handyman work often gets wrong — our crews treat them as their own scope.
