Shade and debris
Tree-covered homes need clean drainage and sound flashing. We look for trapped debris, moisture and wear that builds up under the canopy.

Roofing in Gainesville
Gainesville is about 45 miles north of our Belleview office, and we are glad to talk about your roof.
Gainesville gets frequent afternoon thunderstorms from late spring through September and averages about 48 inches of rain a year. Its tree canopy covers close to half the city, which means shade, debris and moisture on many roofs.
McGinnis Builders handles roof repairs, replacements and metal roofing, and holds Florida roofing contractor license CCC1330459. Project availability depends on the location and the work involved, so call us with your address and we will talk through it.

We listen, inspect the roof and give you a straight answer about repair or replacement, with the scope and price in writing before work begins.
For Gainesville projects we will confirm scheduling and availability up front, so you know what to expect before you decide.
