Reaching New Heights, Again and Again

By Susan Shalhoub

With their core leadership and several team members related to one another, they set up a level of commitment that translates into exemplary service for roofing customers day in, day out.

            Brothers Tate Spaulding and Matthew Vallejo are vice president and president. Nephew Matthew Vallejo Jr. holds the third ownership seat at All Roofing & Construction. Tate and Matthew’s mother provides receptionist duties, with other family members helping out in the office as well. Twenty-four employees total ensure All Roofing & Construction customers get accurate estimates, quality installations and professional repairs.

            “People appreciate the fact that we are a family business, but also that we are a local business,” Tate said. Based in Longwood, All Roofing & Construction serves all of Central Florida.

            This family works to ensure your family’s home is well protected against the elements with a sturdy, secure roof overhead at an affordable price.

            Your roof’s enemies

            Besides hurricanes, one of a roof’s most treacherous enemies lurks all over Florida: The sun. There is no escaping it.

            The sun’s heat and UV rays beat up on roofs, dishing out punishment. Here are some ways sun can impact your roof:

•           By drying up the oils in roof tiles, causing gaps

•           Creating expansions and contractions of tiles (which open up the roof to potential damage)

•           Warping and cracking certain roofing materials

•           Bleaching the color of tile roofs on areas of your house that get the most sunlight

            “Hail storms here in Florida also deliver a lot of roof damage,” said Tate, with homeowners calling All Roofing & Construction to inspect what’s gone on up above after the pelting has stopped. The company will work with your insurance company to help with the insurance claim process.

            Existing roof damage and need for repair sometimes lies in wait and is then discovered with a leak after a heavy rain, Tate said, making rain the prime indicator that work is needed. “You don’t know there is a problem until you know there is a problem.”

            In some cases, repairs may be the order of the day, but Tate says the average roof should be replaced about every 15 years or so, just to account for normal  wear and tear.

            Installing shingle, tile and metal roofs most of the time, All Roofing & Construction is usually booked out about six weeks. This gives the team time to come out, give an accurate estimate and take measurements, and make sure all materials and labor are ready to go to make your property secure, safe and beautiful.

            All Roofing & Construction is a trusted roofer for many satisfied Central Florida customers already. Tate, Matthew, Matthew and the rest of the team look forward to serving you.
