Default Roofer recommendation needed

Apologies for posting anew, but I have trawled "Contractors & Services" back to August and can find only one similar post (recommending McHale Roofing Fruitland Park) although I thought there were several after Irma hit.

Just been on the roof and we have two small areas of minor damage. Would like these fixed, and a general inspection of the whole roof.

Did you have a good experience with your roofer after Irma?

Thank you

Do NOT use SACKS roofing. They are the reason we have so much damage from Irma.

Sacks did our new home roof had some minor roof damage from IRMA and called them to replace a few shingles. Took them until last week to call back and set up an apt to fix the shingles. Of course, had them replace weeks ago. SACKS clearly not recommended.

Consider Sack's taken off the list. We did have good service from them around seven years ago, but they never returned our call around four years ago.

Any positive recommendations for a roof repairer?

Thank you

We used C.L. Martin Roofing Inc. after Hurricane Irma. Very satisfied with their price and work completed 352-589-0819.
They are located in Fruitland Park. 😄

McGinnis installed a new roof for a friend of mine several weeks after the hurricane. They did it in a few days, charged $5000, did not collect any money until the job was finished, and did a good job. I thought that was amazing.

We called Mchale's roofing to check our roof after the hurricane and inspect for damage. Came out on time went up on the roof and in the attic to check an area where we had a small water stain on the ceiling. Found no issues and did not even charge us for a service call. Be aware, they have been very busy since the storm, averaging about 300 calls a day, so be patient. In my book, they were very honest and I would recommend them highly.

I highly recommend Quality Services Roofing (352-751-7661). These guys are quick and reasonable. Not storm chasers and they do quality work. They have done about 6 houses in my village.
One I WOULD NOT recommend for any type of home repair or improvement, even a small roof repair, is SMI aka San Mella Inc.
