No leak after Hurricane Isaias? Your roof may still be damaged. 🔍

A roof can take a beating and look fine from the driveway. Small damage turns into leaks, rot, and mold months later, and by then it's harder to tie back to the storm.

Signs of hidden storm damage:
✅ Shingles that are lifted, creased, or missing tabs
✅ Dark spots or bare patches where granules wore off
✅ Bent or loose flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys
✅ Granules piling up in your gutters or at the downspouts
✅ Sagging or soft spots on the roof
✅ Brown stains on ceilings or in the attic, even faint ones
✅ Daylight coming through the attic

Check the attic with a flashlight, after the rain, for damp wood or stained insulation. Stay off the roof. It's slippery and unsafe, and a fall is a bigger problem than shingles.

Also, Florida sets a deadline to report hurricane damage to your insurer. Don't wait until you see a leak. Call them and document everything.

Not sure? We'll take a look and tell you straight, whether it needs a repair, a full replacement, or nothing at all.

It's been over a week since Hurricane Isaias hit. Our hearts go out to everyone in Gulf Breeze, Milton, Pace, and Pensacola who lost something, whether it was a roof, a fence, or just a good night's sleep.

Thank you to the homeowners who trusted us with their roofs and let us into their lives at a stressful time. We don't take that lightly.

Thank you to the linemen, first responders, and city and county crews who've worked around the clock to get us back on our feet.

And thank you to the neighbors checking on neighbors, sharing generators, clearing debris, and making sure the older folks on the street were okay. That's what makes this place home.

We're still here and still working. If you need an inspection, a second opinion, or just a hand figuring out your next step, message us. We're ready when you are.

Stay safe, and take care of each other.

Got a roofing estimate after Hurricane Isaias? Here's what a good one looks like. 🏠

Two quotes could be $3,000 apart and look the same. The difference is in the details.

A real estimate should list:
✅ Company name, address, and FL license number
✅ Your property address and the date
✅ Exactly what's being done: tear-off, underlayment, flashing, vents, shingle brand and color
✅ Decking repair: how it's priced if they find rotted wood
✅ Permit: who pulls it and who pays
✅ Cleanup and debris haul-off
✅ Total price and payment schedule
✅ Warranty terms, in writing

🚩 Red flags:
• One number on a business card or text, no breakdown
• "Material TBD" or "we'll figure it out on the roof"
• Pressure to sign today
• A big deposit before any work or materials show up (more than half up front is too much)
• No license number

Tip: Compare quotes line by line, not by the bottom number. The cheapest one often leaves things out.

Getting an estimate and not sure what it means? Send it to us. We'll walk through it with you, even if you go with someone else.

Why your roof needs a permit, and why a roofer who says to skip it is a red flag 🏠

After a storm like Isaias, some roofers will say "we can skip the permit, it'll save you time and money."

Don't fall for it.

✅ It's the law. Most roof repairs and replacements require a permit, and starting permitted work without one is a violation in Florida.

✅ Inspections protect you. A permit means someone besides the contractor checks the work

✅ It protects your insurance and your sale. Unpermitted work can come back to haunt you when you file a claim, refinance, or sell.

✅ It shows who's responsible. A contractor who pulls the permit puts their license on the job. Skipping it often means they don't want that paper trail.

Good to know: in Escambia County, emergency tarping to stop water doesn't need a permit, and roof permits are being expedited. Check with your county building department for your address.

🚩 Red flags:
"You don't need a permit."
"Let's start today."
Pushing you to pull the permit yourself so the risk is yours.

Ask this before you sign: "Who pulls the permit, and can I see it before work starts?"

🌀 Isaias hit hard. If you're reading this, we hope you and your family are safe.

Your safety comes first. Stay off damaged roofs, stay away from downed power lines, and don't go into rooms with ceiling water damage.

When you're able, here's what to do about your roof:

✅ Take photos and video of all damage before touching anything.
✅ Cover openings to stop more water getting in. Tarping is a temporary fix, so keep your receipts.
✅ Call your insurance company and start your claim.
✅ Call a licensed roofer for a real inspection.

⚠️ Storm chasers are already out. Verify any contractor's license at MyFloridaLicense.com before they touch your home, and never pay a big deposit to a door-knocker.

True Grit Roofing is local, licensed, and insured. Our license is CCC1337434, so look us up. We're here for our neighbors in Gulf Breeze, Pensacola, and Milton, and we'll be here long after the cleanup.

Need a tarp, an inspection, or help with your claim documentation? Message us or call us.
