Stay Safe from Hurricane Milton Scams

We cannot encourage you enough to be cautious!!

Storm chasers come in all shapes and sizes, including local roofers, and are heavily visible on Facebook, Instagram, Yelp and knocking at your door with business cards they ordered yesterday!

Ask for:

• Their roofing license and verify it on FL DBPR
Proof of insurance
• Proof of insurance
• Google them for news stories, including the business owner’s name
• Check their physical address - make sure it's not a virtual office in an office building or UPS store.
• Check Florida Sunbiz for their business, an official state FL website, where are all legal and active businesses in FL must be registered

No roofer can act as a public adjuster and it is a felony in Florida to not collect, discount, waive, rebate, etc a deductible via Florida Statute 817.234 False and Fraudulent Insurance Claims.

If you suspect an issue, you can report it to your local law enforcement, news and the Florida DBPR. Don’t wait as taking action can protect our most vulnerable in our communities.

Collis Really Does Care

Having served Florida from Tampa Bay to Orlando to Melbourne to Jacksonville for 30 years, Hurricane Milton isn't our first storm. We know how to prioritize and manage a high volume of families who need emergency tarps, roof repairs and replacements fast.

There are a number of ways Collis Roofing will be there to help you during Hurricane Milton:

Emergency Tarps

We will go to as many people as possible per day to install. To be scheduled to install, you must pay for your emergency tarp installation. Pricing is based on Xactimate, and we will provide pictures after it is installed for your insurance claim.

Roof Inspections & Roof Replacements

If your home or building’s roof has sustained more than 25% damage, you are highly likely to need a roof replacement. Our largest team is the roof replacement department for both residential, multi family and commercial. We will be able to provide you with a detailed evaluation and estimate, even if your insurance has a preferred provider. In Florida, you do have a right to a choice.

Financing for Deductibles

Yes, we do offer financing for your Hurricane Milton deductible. Some major repairs may also qualify. Please speak with your estimator for more info.

Roof Repair Estimates

If your roof has less than 25% damage, you may likely need a repair. Most people may assume they only need a repair, but we will only know after your free roof repair estimate has been completed. This is typically the longest wait, for anyone in Florida, because there are less repair teams at most roofing companies. Please be patient and know that we will triage the homes with the most need first. Like most roofers, our repairs do have a minimum cost of to repair.
