When a new home is being built in Southwest Florida, every detail matters — from the foundation to the finishes. But one of the most important components of the entire structure is often the last thing installed: the roof.
At LeGrands Roofing, new roof construction is more than just installing materials. It’s a strategic, code-driven, weather-ready system designed specifically for Florida’s coastal climate, hurricane exposure, heat, humidity, and salt air.
As trusted partners with local builders across Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and surrounding communities, our seasoned team collaborates closely with contractors to ensure every new roof is built to last for decades — not just pass inspection.
Why New Construction Roofing in Southwest Florida Is Different
Roof installation for a new build in Southwest Florida is not the same as in other parts of the country. Here, roofs must be engineered for:
- Hurricane-force winds
- Torrential seasonal rain
- Intense UV exposure year-round
- Salt air corrosion near the coast
- Strict Florida Building Code requirements
That’s why builders rely on LeGrands Roofing to install roofing systems that meet and exceed these challenges from day one.
The Importance of Proper Roofing Layers
A high-quality roof system starts long before the tile, metal, or shingles are installed. Our team focuses on:
- Roof decking integrity
- Premium underlayment for waterproof protection
- Proper flashing installation
- Ventilation systems for heat control
- Code-approved fastening patterns for wind resistance
These layers are what protect homes when storms arrive — and they are especially critical during new construction.
Roofing Options for New Homes
We install a wide range of premium roofing materials for new construction homes:
- Concrete and clay tile roofs (very popular in Naples communities)
- Standing seam metal roofs for durability and modern aesthetics
- Architectural shingles for cost-effective performance
- Slate roofing for luxury custom homes
Each material is selected based on the home’s design, HOA requirements, budget, and long-term performance goals.
Working Hand-in-Hand With Builders
LeGrands Roofing works directly with local home builders to keep projects on schedule and within code. We understand construction timelines, inspections, and coordination with other trades, ensuring the roofing portion never delays the build.
Long-Term Value for Homeowners
A properly installed new roof increases:
- Home resale value
- Insurance confidence
- Energy efficiency
- Structural protection for decades
When the roof is done right at the construction stage, homeowners avoid expensive issues later.
