Roof Repair in Lakeland, FL
Leak after a storm? Shingles in the yard? DBR Construction repairs shingle, metal, tile and flat roofs across Polk County, with 24/7 emergency service when water is coming in.
When Can a Roof Be Repaired Instead of Replaced?
Many roof problems can be fixed without replacing the whole roof: a few missing or creased shingles after a wind storm, a leak at a pipe boot or chimney, failed flashing, cracked tiles or a worn spot on a flat roof. A repair makes sense when the rest of the roof is in good shape and has years of life left. If the damage is widespread or the roof is near the end of its life, we will tell you honestly that a replacement is the better investment.
A good repair starts with finding the real source of the leak, which is not always where the water shows up inside. We inspect the roof and attic, photograph what we find and explain your options before any work starts. Florida's building code also limits how much of a roof can be repaired before that section has to be brought up to current standards, and we factor that into our recommendation.

Common Roof Repair Questions
Watch for water stains on ceilings or walls, a musty smell in the attic, drips during heavy rain, peeling paint near the roofline, and shingle granules collecting in your gutters. Leaks often show up far from where the water enters, so an inspection is the fastest way to find the source.
Yes. We are available 24/7 for active leaks and storm damage, and we can tarp or temporarily seal the roof to stop water from coming in until a permanent repair is made.
Often it is, if the damage is limited and the rest of the roof is sound. If the roof is near the end of its life or the damage is spread across it, putting money into repairs may only delay a replacement. We will give you an honest recommendation either way.
If the damage came from a covered event like wind or hail, your homeowner's policy may cover the repair, minus your deductible. We document the damage with photos and can meet with your adjuster.
We prioritize active leaks and fresh storm damage and respond as quickly as we can, any time of day. For non-emergency repairs, we schedule a free inspection at a time that works for you.
It depends on the roof type, the extent of the damage, the roof's pitch and access. After the inspection we give you a written price for the repair before any work starts.
Patching the stain on the ceiling does not fix a roof. We trace every leak back to where water is actually getting in, whether that is a lifted shingle, a cracked pipe boot or flashing that has pulled away from a wall, and repair it with materials that match your roof. If we find something you did not call about, we show you the photos and let you decide.
