Florida's weather can be tough on commercial roofs, and a small problem can quickly disrupt your business. If you spot any of the issues below on your property, call (813) 800-1800 for immediate assistance.
- Leaks and water intrusion that cause interior damage and business disruption
- Storm and hurricane damage from high winds and heavy rain
- Ponding water, since flat roofs are prone to standing water
- Cracked, blistered, punctured, or torn roofing membrane
- Loose or missing flashing
- Increased energy bills from poor insulation

Florida's 25% Rule on a Lakeland Commercial Roof
The 25% roofing rule is a Florida Building Code rule. It decides whether a leak repair stays a patch or has to bring a whole section up to current code.
On a roof built or last replaced under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, only the repaired portion has to meet current code. On an older warehouse or strip-center roof, repairing more than a quarter of a section in 12 months can still force a larger replacement. We measure the section on the roof and put that in writing before you approve a patch. The full walkthrough is what is the 25 percent roofing rule in Florida.
