Our Modern Technology
Built for sun, storms, and everything in between
Drones with Thermal & High-Res Cameras
Aerial thermal and high-resolution imaging that finds wet insulation and storm damage without anyone stepping on a fragile roof.
Learn more
Handheld Infrared Cameras
Thermal scanning inside and out that traces a leak back to where the water actually enters the assembly.
Learn more
Aerial Measurement Platforms (EagleView)
Measured aerial reports of every slope and penetration, so material counts and pricing are exact before we start.
Learn more
Moisture Meters
Direct readings through decking and insulation that show how far water has traveled under the surface.
Learn more
Core Sampling Tools
A small test cut on a flat roof that shows every layer, so a recommendation is based on what is actually up there.
Learn more
Photo Documentation Apps (CompanyCam)
Time-stamped, location-tagged photos of every stage of your job, shared straight to you and to your insurer.
Learn more
Hot-Air Welders (Handheld & Automatic)
Robotic and handheld welders that fuse TPO and PVC seams into one continuous membrane instead of gluing them.
Learn more
Trailer-Mounted Seamless Gutter Machine
Gutter formed to length in your driveway, so the run over your entry has no seam to split open later.
Learn more
Downspout Roll-Former
Downspout made on site to match the gutter profile and the exact drop height of each corner.
Learn more
Portable Sheet Metal Brakes
On-site bending of custom flashing, drip edge, and trim so metal fits your roof rather than the other way around.
Learn more
Electric Shears & Nibblers
Clean, burr-free cuts in roofing metal that leave the coating and the panel edge intact.
Learn more
Mechanical & Hand Seamers
Standing seam panels locked to the manufacturer's spec, the step that carries the wind-uplift warranty.
Learn more
Membrane Fastening Tools & Stand-Up Screw Guns
Consistent fastener depth and spacing across a commercial deck, set without over-driving the plate.
Learn more
Seam Rollers & Probes
Every welded seam rolled, then probed by hand along its full length before we call a flat roof done.
Learn more
Propane Torch Kits for Modified Bitumen
Controlled torch application for mod-bit systems where a fully adhered cap sheet is the right answer.
Learn more
Airless Sprayers, Rollers & Squeegees
Silicone, acrylic, and elastomeric coatings applied at the mil thickness the warranty requires.
Learn more
Pressure Washers & Soft-Wash Systems
Low-pressure soft washing that kills moss, algae, and lichen without stripping granules off your shingles.
Learn more
Scaffolding & Boom/Scissor Lifts
Safe, stable access to steep slopes, tall walls, and commercial parapets for the length of the job.
Learn more
Ladder Hoists & Shingle Conveyors
Material lifted mechanically to the roof, which keeps crews fresher and keeps loads off your landscaping.
Learn more
Full-Body Harnesses, Lanyards & Roof Anchors
OSHA fall protection on every roof, every day, with anchors set before the first bundle goes up.
Learn more
Roof Jacks, Toe Boards & Planks
Working platforms on steep pitches so shingles are set deliberately instead of scrambled onto.
Learn more
Extension Ladders with Stabilizers
Stabilizer arms that spread the load across the roof edge and keep ladders off your gutters and siding.
Learn more
GPS Fleet Tracking
Live truck locations, so when we say the crew is twenty minutes out, that is a real answer.
Learn more
Submersible Pumps, Air Movers & Dehumidifiers
Water pulled out and the structure dried after an intrusion, before mold and rot get a start.
Learn more
Wet/Dry & Gutter Vacuums
Gutters and internal drains emptied from the ground, with the debris hauled away instead of dumped in the beds.
Learn more
Drain Snakes for Internal Drains
Blocked interior roof drains and scuppers cleared before standing water finds a seam.
Learn more
Chainsaws & Pole Saws
Fallen limbs cut back and lifted off the roof safely, first step on any tree-impact call.
Learn more
Wood Moisture Meters
Decking, rafters, and fascia checked for moisture content so we replace what is wet and keep what is sound.
Learn more
Heavy-Duty Tarps, Battens & Sandbags
Storm tarping that is battened down to hold through the next band of weather, not just the next hour.
Learn more
Plywood & Board-Up Kits
Openings closed against wind and rain the same visit, so the house is secure overnight.
Learn more
Portable Generators & Work Lights
Power and light for emergency work after dark or when the storm has taken the grid down.
Learn more
Pneumatic Coil Roofing Nailers & Air Compressors
Fastening at the nail pattern and depth Florida's wind-uplift requirements call for, nail after nail.
Learn more
Cap Nailers for Synthetic Underlayment
Capped fasteners that hold synthetic underlayment tight and keep the dry-in watertight between stages.
Learn more
Framing Nailers & Cordless Impact Drivers
Structural repairs to decking, rafters, and blocking made properly while the roof is open.
Learn more
Towable Air Compressors
Enough air on site to run a full crew's tools on a large tear-off without anyone waiting.
Learn more
Circular Saws & Angle Grinders
Accurate cuts in decking, tile, and metal, including the tight work around penetrations.
Learn more
Reciprocating Saws
Rotted decking and old fasteners cut out cleanly in the middle of a tear-off.
Learn more
Roofing Shovels & Tear-Off Spades
Old roofing stripped down to a bare, inspectable deck — the step that reveals what a roof-over would hide.
Learn more
Pry Bars & Nail Pullers
Every old nail pulled rather than pounded flat, so the new roof lies flat on a clean deck.
Learn more
Magnetic Nail Sweepers
Your driveway, lawn, and beds swept for nails at the end of every day on site.
Learn more
Roll-Off Dumpsters & Dump Trailers
Tear-off debris goes straight into a container on site, never into a pile on your yard.
Learn more
Dump Trucks & Material Trailers
Our own hauling, so debris leaves when the job is done instead of sitting through the weekend.
Learn more
Service Vans & Pickups with Ladder Racks
Stocked trucks that arrive with the material a repair call usually needs already on board.
Learn more
Landscape Protection Tarps
Plants, pool cages, and walkways covered before a single shingle comes off.
Learn more
Hole Saws & Vent Cutting Jigs
Clean, correctly sized openings for vents, sun tunnels, and pipe boots that flash tight the first time.
Learn more
Gutter Crimpers, Outlet Punches & Rivet Guns
Outlets, miters, and end caps fitted and sealed so the joints stay tight through years of heat cycling.
Learn more
Hidden Hanger Tools
Concealed hangers screwed into solid fascia — no visible spikes, no sagging runs.
Learn more
Tin Snips & Hand Seamers
Hand-fit metal work at chimneys, sidewalls, and valleys where a machine cannot reach.
Learn more
Hook Blade Utility Knives
Controlled cuts in shingles and membrane that do not score whatever is underneath.
Learn more
Caulking Guns & Heat Guns
Sealant and flashing detail work done at the right temperature so it bonds instead of peeling in a season.
Learn more
Chalk Lines, Levels & Laser Distance Meters
Courses snapped straight and measurements taken to the inch, which is why finished roofs look right from the street.
Learn more
Framing Squares & Layout Tools
Layout checked before the first fastener, so valleys, ridges, and edges land where they belong.

5-Star Reviews
Straight from the neighbors we've re-roofed
"Outstanding work and communication for our exterior gutter and soffit work. Fair price, timely and professional. Thank you."
Kevin H.
"It was very refreshing working with SmithBuilt Roofing. Their crews and leaders are very competent, show high-quality workmanship, and go above and beyond the scope of work to ensure customer satisfaction."
Travis L.
"RoofSmith handles our HOA annual roof maintenance for our buildings. We have developed a great relationship with Deena and Todd in a very short time. They do a great job and more important are punctual and fair. We highly recommend RoofSmith for your roofing needs."
Chuck L.
"This is the most professional/experienced and affordable roofing company I have worked on my home in over 20 years. The customer satisfaction is a 10 and the quality of work is even better."
Nick S.
"Amazing family run roofing company. Smith Built took great care of my families roof, work was done fast and clean. Deena made things very easy and communicated every step of the way! Will be my recommendation to anyone in need of a roof/reroof for the future."
Liam R.
"SmithBuilt recently did a roof repair on my condo. They responded quickly and had someone out to do an estimate right away. The estimate was reasonable and fair. They came out a couple days later to perform the repair. They did a very thorough and comprehensive repair making sure to patch, caulk, flash and reshingle with matching materials. They did a great job cleaning up the jobsite too. They billed me exactly what was quoted. My sincere compliments to Deena and her team!"
J S.
"I had three shingles blown off after hurricane Milton and water leak staining on the sheetrock ceiling above the dining room roof. I called my local pro roofer who put on the new roof 3 years ago, and I also called RoofSmith, by chance seeing their sharp painted truck on the road, to get a second opinion. Bottom line, Deena & Mat of RoofSmith followed up quickly and gave me a more professional and much less espensive fix assessment. Mat completed the job the same day. As a result, I now consider RoofSmith as my new go to roofing company."
Robert W.
"Todd @ roofsmith did an exceptional job on my 21 year old roof replacement. The price was fair! Quality of work, customer service & communication -- fantastic! Some tricky aspects were completed better than I hoped for (stucco chimney leaking, agressive pitch in some areas, adddition roof connection, unknown termite damage to roof decking). fair pricing, excellent communication & great construction quality on these problem areas. great job Todd! My highest recomendation for RoofSmith!"
Charles R.
"Honest and courtious! They were in and out out in just a few days even though much more wood needed replacing. Highly recommend this local owned business."
Dave G.
"First class operation all the way!
Polite, on time, congenial and very professional.
I highly recommend!"
Pierre B.
"These guys were Awesome from start to finish keeping things clean as they go .., we really appreciate everything and would definitely have them back for more jobs in the future … it’s all about being professional and they are the real deal.. JZ and Fam"
Jeff Z.
"SmithBuilt has been handling or roof repairs at our Condo association for several years. We have 16 buildings so we have dealt with them a number of times. They are very responsive, so great work at a reasonable cost. Great company."
John S.
"We recently had Roofsmith come and re do our entire shingle / Flat roof , they communicated well , provided top workmanship and delivered a great end result !
From the onsite crew , to the office
Highly recommend"
Juan D.
"Roofsmith was prompt, competitively priced and most importantly did quality work. Their team was knowledgeable, communicative and left the work site spotless. Can’t ask for more. Thanks for the great job."
Bill L.
"I had a B-vent on top of my 2 story roof that caused a small leak in the attic. I called numerous contractors including HVAC, and plumbers to take a look at it. (The vent was connected to my gas furnace and water heater) Not a single one was interested in repairing it. Smith built was the only contractor that was knowledgeable enough to immediately identify the problem. The two guys that came to repair it told me they are not roofers. Their SPECIALTY is inspecting and repairing roof vents and they did a phenomenal job! The price was fair and the work was done swiftly and efficiently. Highly recommend!!!"
Doina
"Really well done job . Truly professional."
Doone M.
"RoofSmith did a fantastic job replacing my barrel tile roof. The crew worked quickly and cleaned up the job site meticulously every night after finishing for the day. I haven't seen even one stray nail!!! Their price was excellent compared to 3 other quotes. All their equipment is brand new, and crew is polite and neat."

Does the company service Bradenton Beach?
Yes.
Will my homeowners' insurance pay for roof replacement?
Insurance may cover roof damage caused by storms, hurricanes, hail, or falling trees. Damage caused by normal aging or lack of maintenance is generally not covered. Your roofing contractor can help document damage and work with your insurance company during the claims process.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof?
Yes. Most Florida roof replacements require permits and inspections to ensure compliance with current Florida Building Code requirements.
How long does roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements take one to three days. Larger homes, complex roof designs, weather delays, or specialty materials may extend the timeline.
How do I know if my roof needs repair?
Missing, curling or cracked shingles, granules in the gutters, stains on ceilings and daylight in the attic are common signs. Call us for an inspection if you notice any of them.
How long does a roof last?
It depends on the material and climate. Asphalt shingle roofs often last around 20 to 30 years, while metal, tile and slate can last much longer.
What should I do if my roof is leaking?
Move belongings away from the leak, catch the water in a bucket, and call us. Stay off the roof in bad weather.
How often should my roof be inspected?
Once a year and after any major storm is a good rule. Catching small problems early helps a roof last longer.
