Roofers in Bartow: what we do
Repair, replacement and inspections for Bartow homes and commercial buildings, all served from our Winter Haven location.
-
Roof repair
We find the real source of a leak, fix what failed and check the repair. You get a written plan that says whether repair or replacement makes sense. See roof repair.
-
Roof replacement
When a roof has reached the end of its life, we install a full system: tear-off, underlayment, flashing, ventilation and the new roof covering. We walk you through the options first. See roof replacement.
-
Free inspections
A free inspection with photos and a written plan. Good before you buy, before you list, or when you want a second opinion on a quote.
-
Storm damage documentation
We inspect, photograph and put the findings in a written, itemized estimate for your insurer. Your claim stays yours. We do not interpret policies or negotiate claims.
We install shingle, metal, tile and flat roofing, for homes and for commercial buildings. See roofing services.

Bartow roofing questions
Do you work in Bartow?
Yes. Bartow is part of our regular work, and we have been up on hundreds of Bartow roofs. We serve it from our Winter Haven location.
How do I know you are licensed?
Search CCC1328257 at myfloridalicense.com. Florida requires the license number on every proposal, contract and advertisement (s. 489.119(5)(b), Fla. Stat.).
Do I need a permit for a new roof in Bartow?
Re-roofs generally need a building permit, and we handle the application and the inspections. Which office issues it depends on whether the address is inside the City of Bartow.
Can you file my insurance claim for me?
No. Only a licensed public adjuster may interpret your policy or adjust a claim on your behalf (s. 489.147(2)(d)). We provide the inspection, the photos and a written, itemized estimate (s. 489.147(2)(e)).
Do you use subcontractors?
No. Our crews are our own employees. When a contractor sublets work, Florida law makes it responsible for the subcontractor's workers unless they have their own coverage (s. 440.10(1)(b)), so it is worth asking every roofer who will actually be on your roof.
Can I cancel a roof contract I signed after a storm?
Sometimes. If the contract was signed within 180 days of a governor-declared state of emergency and your home is in the declared area, you can cancel within 10 days of signing or by the official start date, whichever comes first, by certified mail, return receipt requested (s. 489.147(6)).
Still have a question? Call (863) 967-6675 or send us a message. The inspection and the written estimate are free.

“Great company to deal with. Office staff and field manager very professional. Professional roof job. Went beyond the call of duty when workers accidently damaged my AC compressor. Actually replaced it with a new unit. Would do business with them anytime.”
“They came out when scheduled and performed the work as promised. They were the lowest priced of three bidders by a substantial margin. Very pleased with their work and recommend them.”
“Our experience wirh Budget Roofing is that they are fair honest and quick.”
“We got our roof 10 years ago from Budget Roofing. They did an amazing job with a great price. This week we thought our roof was leaking. They came out inspected it. Roof still looked great so it appears to be AC ductwork. Chris was very helpful explaining stuff and recommending AC company. Budget Roofing is a family owned business ,that treats their customers right. Thanks Chris!”
“The absolute best company I have dealt with in a long time. I would 100% recommend them to anybody. I am so pleased with the work and fairness in the price.”
