Universal roof and contracting did an amazing job. Archie the salesman kept it real with me , he's a great guy. The project manager Brian also a great guy, his team tackled all issues and I am very pleased. Will definitely recommend Universal roof and contracting to all my friends and family. Thanks again Universal roof and contracting.
Bill came over to give inspect my roof as I has some leaks. I was very apprehensive that he will tell me I needed a whole new roof and set me back thousands of dollars. Bill was honest, so helpful, and professional. I was so relieved and very appreciative for his honesty. This company will be referred by me to all my friends, family, and chat groups. Thank you Bill !!
A new roof is always worrisome. The cost and time always seems to vary. This company made everything so incredibly easy to understand. The cost was affordable, everyone showed up when they said they would, and they finished when they said they would. I was in constant contact with the sales manager, Bill Fuqua, even 2 weeks after. Extremely professional. Everything was cleaned up and just as good as when they got here. Best roofing company in Florida, period! Highly recommend.
Working with Chris at Universal Roof Tampa was a great experience! I highly recommend this company for anyone needing roofing services. They did a great job and the best customer service.
Anderson and team were professional, communicated well and did a great job. The roof looks great and they left the site very clean.
Universal did an excellent job. Work was done in a timely and professional manner. Punch list was quickly finished and I would highly recommend Universal to anyone.
We had a fantastic experience with Universal Roof and Contracting from start to finish. They were honest, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire process. The communication was absolutely stellar-every step was clearly explained and we always felt informed. Brian Bower was a pleasure to work with; his expertise and care for us as homeowners truly stood out. Raven did a phenomenal job coordinating everything and made the process seamless and stress free. Anderson, our project manager, was outstanding. He took the time to thoroughly explain each phase of the project and ensured everything was done efficiently and to the highest standards. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Universal Roof and Contracting to anyone in need of roofing work. They’ve definitely earned our trust and our thanks!
I had my roof replaced in 2016 by Universal and was very pleased with the workmanship. What stands out to me even more is what an honest company they are. I had a roof leak that left marks on my ceiling and ran down my wall and ruined part of my floor. I called Universal and they informed me that my warranty ran out with in a few days. They sent a wonderful man out named Damian that looked at everything and basically said the company would take care of it and fix the issue. I then spoke to Devon who was sweet as could be and he made everything right. They didn't make it hard for me in any way. They worked around my schedule and had it taken care of very quickly. They were all amazing! I can honestly say that Universal Roofing and Contracting takes care of their customers. Call them if you're in need of a roof. Let them come out and give you an estimate. Remember that they are there for you even after the work is done. That says A LOT about the company!
John was very helpful with everything would recommend him to others thank you for all you did John

Universal Roof & Contracting serves Celebration with every major roofing service — repair, replacement, inspections, storm response, gutters, and all four mainstream roof systems — from our Greater Orlando office. Family-owned since 1993, BBB-accredited with an A+ rating, and Owens Corning Platinum Preferred. This page is the whole picture in one place; every section links to the full service behind it.
Celebration is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Osceola County. The Osceola County Board of County Commissioners first approved the Celebration Planned Development on March 1, 1994.
As amended, the county's approval covers 8,065 dwelling units, three golf courses with 54 holes, nearly 2 million square feet of retail space, 1,539 hotel rooms, a medical center with 209 hospital beds and 1,299 acres of open space. The 2020 Census counted 11,178 residents.
The weather those roofs answer to is measurable. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for the Orlando Intl Ap station put annual rainfall at 51.45 inches, with 57% of it falling June through September and 8.05 inches in June alone. Most of that rain arrives in summer storms, often wind-driven, and it finds any weak flashing detail on Celebration rooflines quickly.
Humidity, sun, and that rainfall all work on Celebration roofs, and edges, penetrations and fasteners are where we start every inspection.
Celebration sits in the inland storm region, and the record is specific: Irma (2017) — crossed Central Florida as a hurricane; minor to moderate damage to many structures, widespread tree damage (NOAA/NHC TCR AL112017). Milton (2024) — hurricane-force gusts in Central Florida near the track; 14.83" of rain recorded near Orlando (NOAA/NHC TCR AL142024).
After any of those, the useful thing a homeowner can do is document from the ground: photograph what is visible, note the date, check ceilings that night and again a week later. Then get a professional assessment before small openings become interior damage. We run storm routes across Osceola County and put findings in writing with photographs — no scare tactics, no inflated damage lists.
Not sure which of these your roof needs?
The free inspection answers it with photos and a written report.
Everything the Greater Orlando crews do runs through Celebration: roof repair, full replacement installed to manufacturer specification, free documented inspections, storm response, commercial systems, and the roof edge — soffit, fascia and seamless gutters. Materials: metal, architectural shingle, tile, and our exclusive Metlok system.
Universal Roof & Contracting has been family-owned since 1993 — state-licensed (CCC057165 & CBC1258484), fully insured, BBB-accredited with an A+ rating, and an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, a tier held by fewer than 1% of roofing contractors. Estimates are free and itemized; the inspection comes back as photographs and a written report you keep either way.
Shingle: about 20 years. Tile: more than 50 with care, per a National Association of Home Builders study. Metal depends on the product, so ask for its warranty term. Installation quality decides which end of the range your roof lands on.
Not legally. Florida's licensing agency says roof repairs and roof installations require a state license. Ask for the license number before hiring anyone; ours are CCC057165 & CBC1258484.
One to three days for most Celebration homes, start to magnet-swept yard. Tile, steep, and cut-up roofs run longer; commercial ranges from days to weeks by size. You get a realistic window before work starts — and a heads-up if weather moves it.
