Living in Florida means sunshine, palm trees—and powerful storms. From tropical storms to full-blown hurricanes, your roof takes the first hit. The question is: can it handle what’s coming?
Here’s what every Florida homeowner should know before the skies turn dark:
NextGen Roofing & Exteriors offers free, no-obligation storm-readiness inspections.
We’ll check your roof, spot weak points, and make sure you’re fully protected and insurance-ready.
1. Your Roof Is Only as Strong as Its Last Inspection
Storm damage doesn’t always look dramatic. Loose shingles, cracked flashing, or a small leak today can turn into thousands in damage tomorrow. Don’t wait for the rain to find the problem.
2. Insurance Claims Require Proof
After a storm hits, insurance companies want documentation. If you haven’t had your roof professionally inspected and photographed before the damage, your claim could get denied or delayed.
3. DIY Repairs = Big Risks
Trying to patch a roof yourself after a storm can void warranties and lead to safety hazards. Always call a licensed roofing pro to assess and handle repairs properly.


4. Wind Ratings Matter
Not all roofs are built the same. NextGen installs materials designed to withstand Florida’s high wind zones—because cheap materials don’t hold up in 100+ mph gusts.
5. Gutter & Drainage Systems Protect Your Foundation
It’s not just the roof—clogged or poorly installed gutters can flood your foundation or soffits. A full inspection includes drainage checks to keep your whole home protected.
Let’s Be Real—You Can’t Afford to Guess.
Your roof is your home’s first shield. Don’t leave it to chance this storm season.
