Is Your Roof Ready for the Storm? Wrapping Up Q2 with a Look Ahead

As we close out the second quarter of 2025, there’s one big question on the minds of Florida’s commercial property owners: Is your roof storm-ready?

From late spring through summer, our region sees an uptick in severe weather and this time of year can be make-or-break if your roof isn’t ready. At RAMCON Roofing, our goal is to ensure our clients are prepared for hurricane season. Here’s what we’ve been up to this past quarter and what you should be thinking about as storms approach.

Proactive Protection

Throughout April, May, and June, RAMCON’s crews have been hard at work inspecting, repairing, and reinforcing roofing systems across the state. Our goal? Simple: Prevent storm damage before it starts. Here are just a few of the most important measures we took with our clients this quarter:

• Thorough Drainage Inspections: Blocked drains are one of the leading causes of ponding water and roof system failure during storms. We cleared debris, checked flow, and made sure our clients had proper runoff systems in place.
• Edge Securement and Flashing Checks: Wind uplift starts at the edges. We reviewed and reinforced terminations, flashing details, and metal edges, ensuring they are watertight.
• Minor Repairs, Major Impact: Even a small puncture can turn into a major leak under wind-driven rain. We proactively repaired seams, punctures, and worn areas to extend roof life and improve performance.
• Documentation for Peace of Mind: Our clients received detailed inspection reports and photos, giving them a clear picture of their roof’s condition before hurricane season ramps up.

Storm Prep Is More Than a Checklist, It’s a Mindset

It’s easy to forget about your roof when it’s working properly. But in Florida, waiting until after the storm hits is a costly gamble. Repairs become more expensive, tenants become frustrated, and businesses face downtime they can’t afford.

We always say: “The best defense against storm damage is a proactive plan, not a reactive repair.”

Getting ahead of the weather is the only smart way to do business here. That’s why we recommend scheduling storm-prep inspections early and often, especially if:

• Your roof is more than 10 years old
• You’ve had recent equipment installations (HVAC, solar, etc.)
• You’ve seen signs of ponding water, cracking, or bubbling
• You’re unsure when your last inspection took place

Looking ahead, we will stay focused on keeping our clients dry, secure, and informed. We’ll continue offering:

• Emergency response services when weather hits
• Preventive maintenance and warranties
• Core testing and roof condition reports
• Drone and infrared inspections (when appropriate)
