Learn How We Can Protect Your Roof

With the different types of roofing options, it can be difficult to understand which is right for your roof. Talbot is here to help. We are experts at analyzing your roof’s condition and recommending the right option for you. Rather than jumping straight to a full roof replacement, we carefully examine your roof to determine if a more cost-efficient approach is suitable and make the proper recommendation. Learn more below about the different types of roofing options.

Which Roof Service is Right For Your Business?

Without performing an expert analysis of your roof, it is impossible to know which option is best for your situation. However, it is always helpful to understand the use cases for each option before you reach out to a roofing specialist. This ensures you are equipped with the knowledge to effectively communicate with your roofing contractor, and also safeguards you from contractors who are quick to recommend a full replacement when it is not necessary. The table below offers a visual explanation for each roof service option.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the differences between the types of roofing services Talbot offers?

We offer 4 main roofing services: replacements, recovers, coatings, and repairs. A replacement is when the existing roof structure is torn off and replaced with a brand new roof. These types of services are reserved for very old roofs or those that have significant damage to the underlying roof structure.

A recover is the process of adding a new top layer to the existing roof and is performed when there is significant damage to the existing top layer, but the underlying structure is not damaged.

Roof coatings are sprayable or brushable coatings that we apply to the existing roof to extend its lifespan by covering cracks and holes. Coatings are perfect for moderately damaged roofs, but also for middle-aged roofs with minor wear and tear because they significantly extend a roof’s lifespan.

Roof repairs are reserved for minor cracks and the process involves applying a sealing agent to the damaged area. Repairs are best utilized as part of an annual preventive maintenance program to ensure small cracks don’t turn into larger problems.

Does Talbot offer warranties for roofing services?

We do! Because Talbot is an approved applicator of several of the most well-respected roofing material brands in the world, we are able to offer no-dollar-limit manufacturer’s warranties on our roofing applications.

For commercial roof replacements and recovers we offer a 25 year warranty, for commercial roof coatings we offer a 20 year warranty, and for commercial roof repairs we offer multi-year repair-area warranties.

On the residential side, our roof replacements come with 10 year warranties and our repairs offer the same multi-year repair-area warranty as our commercial repairs. Roof recovers and coatings are typically not performed on residential homeowner properties.

How do I know if I need to get my roof serviced?

Aside from the obvious problems that lead to roofing service calls such as leaks or visible tear-offs, it can be difficult to know if it’s time for a roofing service without a professional inspection. Talbot offers free inspections to analyze the health of your roof.

We know that often times, customers are hesitant to ask for free inspections because they feel that is just a roofing company’s way of getting in the door to tell them they need a costly replacement. That’s where Talbot has set itself apart from much of our competition. Unlike some contractors who only recommend replacements, even when they aren’t necessary, Talbot would prefer to do a roof coating or recover when applicable.

Why? Because it’s the right thing to do. We’ve made a name for ourselves by being South Florida’s most honest roofing company and we don’t intend to stop now. When you work with us, we promise not to oversell you, and we promise to always do what is right for you.

How long have you been in business?

We’re proud to say that we’ve been in business for over 50 years and have grown from a small company to one of South Florida’s most respected roofing and painting contractors. We are a 3rd generation company and still family-owned to this day. We’ve made it a priority to keep the family mindset as we’ve grown because we believe that is an integral part of our success and our ability to deliver 100% customer satisfaction.

What makes Talbot different from its competition?

We are a certified People First organization, which means we have been verified by People First as being a company that operates ethically and treats both its customers and employees honorably. Being People First certified means we prioritize the people’s lives we affect over profits. By adhering to this standard, you, as the customer, can feel confident that you’ll always get honest pricing, 100% effort in our work, and ultimately the desired outcome from our services each and every time.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. Our estimating process is always free and is an integral part of determining the right service for you. Our estimates are thorough and complete, so there are never any hidden or surprise charges. We do a full inspection of your property to determine exactly what you’ll need, and communicate clearly with you along the way so you can make an informed decision. And, we never oversell you. Our promise to you is that we will always recommend the right service for you, not the most expensive one for us.

Are you a licensed roofing contractor?

Yes. Our roofing license number is CCC1334659

Do you service large commercial jobs?

We not only service them, we specialize in them. Large and luxury is what Talbot is known for. We have worked with some of the largest and most recognized brands in the world for commercial roofing and painting services.

Do you service residential customers?

Absolutely! In fact, residential is a major core competency and accounts for a significant portion of our business. We love serving our fellow Florida homeowners with top-tier roofing and painting work. Florida weather wreaks havoc on our homes, so we know the importance of doing high quality roofing and painting work for Florida homeowners.
