The Company

About Burnes Roofing

Burnes Roofing Company, LLC is a family-owned and operated roofing company based in Orlando and serving all of Central Florida. That part you could read on a hundred roofing websites. Here is the part you cannot: the person reading your roof, writing your estimate and running your job is the same person, and his name is on the building.

The Owner

The owner is on your roof, not just on the invoice

Burnes Roofing started as a passion for the craft and grew into a fully licensed and insured roofing company. Tommy Burnes is the contractor, the owner and the field specialist, always on the job and watching every step of the roofing process. That is not a slogan somebody wrote for him; it is how the company is built. There is no commissioned sales team working their own leads, no project manager relay between you and the person responsible. You deal with the decision-maker from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.

It changes small things and big ones. Small: your calls and texts get answered by someone who has actually stood on your roof. Big: the estimate you approve is the job that gets built, because the person who priced it is the person swinging the schedule.

"The owner Tommy is prompt, honest and thorough. He made the whole process easy, from Tommy's first inspection to the crew's final clean up. Tommy is a home grown Orlando native and I gotta say, he's good to the soul."

The Work

What we do

Residential and commercial re-roofs, repairs, and new construction, across asphalt shingle, tile, metal and TPO flat systems. Flat and low-slope commercial roofing is a specialty. The work runs from small leak calls that take an afternoon to complete tear-off replacements, and the standard does not change with the ticket size.

On full re-roofs, the philosophy is simple and non-negotiable: everything comes off, down to the deck. Covering old problems with new shingles is how a roof fails twice. The decking gets inspected board by board, anything soft gets photographed and replaced, and what goes back on is built to current Florida code, not to whatever code the house was born under.

Licensed, certified, insured

A 5-year workmanship warranty on every full re-roof

Credentials are the floor, not the pitch. They mean the permits get pulled, the inspections get passed, and the warranty behind the work is real. If something is not right, we make it right.

They also protect you in a way many Florida homeowners learn about the hard way: when a contractor is licensed and insured, your property is covered if something goes wrong on the job. Hiring an unlicensed crew to save a few dollars puts that risk on you.

The Standard

What we run on

Five words hang over every job we take. Plenty of companies print words like these on a truck; here is what each one costs us in practice.

Integrity

If a repair will hold, you hear that, even when a replacement would pay us more. If the roof is fine, you hear that too.

Speed

Calls returned, estimates delivered, and an on-site meeting usually within 24 to 48 hours. Storm calls get tarped first and argued about never.

Family

Family-owned and family-run. When you hire Burnes, you are dealing with the family, not a franchise, and the reputation on the line is ours personally.

Reliability

Jobs start when we said, finish when promised weather allows, and leave the yard cleaner than the crew found it.

Transparency

Photos of what we found, line items you can read, and answers that do not change depending on who picks up the phone. If something changes mid-job, you hear it from us first, with pictures.

Newer than the big names, and that is the point

Burnes Roofing is not the oldest roofing company in Orlando, and we do not pretend to be. What you get instead is the thing the big shops grew out of: the owner's full attention on every single job. When the person on your roof owns the company, the incentives finally point the right way, because a shortcut he takes today is a warranty call he answers personally next year.

That is also why the referral engine matters more to us than any ad. Every roof we put on is a review we are trying to earn and a neighborhood that watched the crew work, which is exactly how our reviews read.

We work from Orlando across Central Florida and the Space Coast; the full footprint is on our service area page.
