Florida Licensed — Not a Storm Chaser
Florida Certified Roofing Contractor CCC#1332902, headquartered in Orlando, in business locally since 2019. After a major storm, out-of-state crews flood the market and disappear by Christmas. We'll be here when the warranty matters.
Central Florida storm damage takes three forms: wind-lifted shingles or tile, hail bruising on shingle granules, and water intrusion at penetrations and edges. Most damage isn't visible from the ground — and a lot of homeowners don't know they have a claim until the next leak shows up six months later. Southern Traditions Roofing has inspected hundreds of post-storm roofs across Orlando, Winter Park, Windermere, Lake Nona, and the surrounding metro since 2019. The first inspection is free.
The right sequence after a storm is: emergency tarp and dry-in (if there's an active leak), full inspection with photo documentation, claim filing with your insurer, adjuster meeting, then repair or full replacement once the scope is approved. We can handle the roofing side end-to-end and coordinate directly with your adjuster so the approved scope matches the actual damage. We are not a public adjuster — that's a separately licensed role — but we'll document everything the adjuster needs to make a fair call.
Hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30. If your roof has lifted shingles, broken tiles, or a leak after a major storm, the sooner we look at it the better — both for water-damage prevention and for your insurance claim window.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you respond after a storm?
We prioritize active leaks for same-week response — tarping and drying in within a few business days when materials and crew availability allow. Inspections without an active leak are typically scheduled within the same week. After major hurricane events, response times stretch as everyone in Central Florida calls at once — we keep you posted on realistic timing rather than overpromise.
Do you handle insurance claims?
Yes — we've helped hundreds of Central Florida homeowners with storm-damage claims since 2019. We document damage with photos and measurements, write a clear scope for the adjuster, and meet your adjuster on site when it helps the claim go through. We don't act as a public adjuster (that's a separately licensed role), but we'll make sure the approved scope reflects the actual damage.
Will my insurance pay for a full roof replacement?
It depends on the damage and your policy. Generally, if more than 25% of your roof is damaged, Florida law and most policies require full replacement to current code rather than patch repair. If the damage is localized, you'll typically get repair coverage. Older roofs (10+ years) sometimes face actual-cash-value depreciation rather than replacement-cost coverage — we'll walk you through what your policy says.
What's the difference between you and a storm-chaser?
After a major storm, out-of-state crews flood Florida, knock doors, sign customers, collect deposits, and often disappear before the work is done. We're an Orlando-based, family-owned, Florida-licensed contractor (CCC#1332902) operating year-round since 2019. We'll be here when the warranty matters and when you need a callback on a question two years from now.
Should I file a claim or pay out of pocket?
Generally, file the claim if the repair is significantly more than your deductible. We'll give you a free written estimate first so you can compare against your deductible and decide. If you decide not to file, we can still do the work — many small repairs are cheaper than the deductible plus the long-term premium impact of an open claim.
Can you tarp my roof tonight?
If we can physically get there safely (no active wind, no lightning) and we have an open crew, yes. Call (407) 579-6397 directly for active emergencies — the contact form goes to email and may not get to us until next morning.
