Florida Commercial Roofing, Anchored Near Tampa Bay
Windward Roofing & Construction has been a family-owned commercial roofing contractor since 1984, and over the years our 42 years of experience have carried us well beyond our Chicago roots. Today our Florida office at 6261 39th Street N in Pinellas Park puts us right in the heart of the Tampa Bay market and gives us a real base for serving the entire state. From there we cover the Gulf Coast metros, the booming I-4 corridor through Orlando, the Atlantic side from West Palm Beach to Fort Lauderdale, and north to Jacksonville. When a Florida property manager or facility director needs commercial roofing done right, we've got crews and resources on the ground.
Florida is a different roofing environment than the Midwest, and we build for it. The relentless heat and UV load that hammer a flat commercial roof for most of the year, the daily summer downpours, and above all the threat of hurricane-force wind all shape how a roof has to be designed and installed here. Our manufacturer-certified crews specify and install systems that hold up to it, and every project is built to meet the Florida Building Code, including the high-velocity wind-uplift and attachment requirements that the state enforces more strictly than almost anywhere in the country.
Built for the Florida Climate and Code
Reflective single-ply membranes like TPO and PVC are workhorses on Florida commercial roofs because they push back against the heat and cut cooling loads through long, hot summers. We also install and restore systems with silicone roof coatings that add reflectivity and extend the life of an existing roof without a full tear-off. Whatever the system, the priority in Florida is wind performance. We detail and fasten every roof to stand up to hurricane season, and we document the code compliance that owners and insurers want to see. When a storm does roll through, our 24/7 emergency line means a leaking or damaged roof gets a fast response, not a voicemail.
Whether you manage a single retail center on the Gulf Coast or a portfolio of buildings spread across Florida, you get the same family-owned accountability Windward has been known for since 1984. We're big enough to handle major commercial and industrial projects and hands-on enough that the ownership stands behind every roof. Find your city below to learn how we serve your part of Florida.
