Angel, Leon did a fantastic job. The roof looks amazing. He’s a great project manager he knows his business can’t say nothing bad about him. He has a terrific personality and the company does top-notch work
I bought a new-build DR Horton home. Hired an inspector. Closed. All good. Hired a gutter installer. He The told me I had “roof problems”. I was so worried. Called Universal Roof immediately. Dylan (inspector) came out within 2-days. So grateful for his professional evaluation (especially before hurricane season). The one-word that best describes this company is “TRUSTWORTHY!”TRUST me on that 😉… ~Mugsy from Daytona Beach (LPGA)
We had our second roof done by them , the other lasted 20 yrs . The company is to be trusted to get your roof done the right way, and stand behind it!
They were so professional. Everyone worked so hard for an entire day and replaced the roof. Afterwards they cleaned everything up and my roof is amazing!!!!!
Universal did an excellent job. I had some storm damage and my sales consultant, Cory Callahan, worked with me every step of the way to navigate the complicated insurance world and figure out the best solution for our home. They did an excellent job and Cory was there to make sure we were 100% happy through the entire process. Great work. Thank you!
John was my sales rep and I have to say how respectful and detailed John was in explaining everything to me in the roofing process. From start to ongoing Universal Roofing did what they say and delivered as explained. The crew showed up at 6:30 am ready to start. Scott my contractor supervisor explained more on what was to be expected. I was happy to see how fast the work went in the process. I can't express more that if you need a roofing company Universal Roofing is the company you can trust to get the job done at a fair price and expertise work. Great job team, appreciate all of you.
Universal Roof did an outstanding job. Crew completed new roof installation in a single day. Tony Contreras the project manager did an excellent supervision job. Would definitely recommend and use again.
From the initial consultation and roof assessment, through the quote planning and scheduling, working with my insurance company, to the final installation and attention to all uncovered issues and near perfect clean up (and even a post inspection final follow-up visit to check out a small quirk of my house) - the people at Universal did an exceptional job.

About Maitland
Maitland is an incorporated city in Orange County and one of the oldest incorporated municipalities in Central Florida. The U.S. Army established a fort here in 1838, and after the Civil War settlers bought land and planted citrus groves. The community was incorporated as the Town of Lake Maitland in 1885.
A new city charter in 1959 shortened the name. The city points to its active art and history community, its growing downtown center and the Maitland Center development west of Interstate 4. The 2020 Census counted 19,543 residents.
Maitland Homes and What Their Roofs Face
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 Maitland rooflines quickly.
Humidity, sun, and that rainfall all work on Maitland roofs, and edges, penetrations and fasteners are where we start every inspection.
Storms Maitland Has Answered To
Maitland 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 Orange 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.

Maitland Roofing Questions
What should I do right after storm damage?
Three things: stay off the roof, photograph what's visible from the ground with the date, and get professional eyes up there quickly, because even small openings let water reach the decking. We run storm assessments across Orange County with tarping available the same visit where roofs need immediate protection.
Is the inspection really free?
Yes — photos, honest findings, and a written condition report, free, whether or not you hire us for anything. Many inspections end with 'you're fine, here's what to watch.'
How long do roofs last in Maitland?
Realistic numbers for Maitland: architectural asphalt shingle about 20 years and clay or concrete tile more than 50 years with proper care, based on a National Association of Home Builders study. Metal life depends on the product, so ask for its warranty term. Installation quality decides which end of the range your roof lands on.
