Book post-storm →

Before leaving, the inspector shows you the photos and explains what they mean. No jargon, no scare tactics, no contract on a clipboard.
Report in your inbox
Within 24 hours you get the full written photo report with an honest recommendation. What you do with it is entirely up to you.
Inspections, in their own words
"Three companies looked at my roof. Two said full replacement, $19K and $22K. Seth from JA Edwards spent half an hour up there and showed me photos proving it was one slope of wind damage. $1,100 repair. The roof is fine two years later."
"Needed documentation for my Citizens renewal. Inspector was on time, report came the next morning, and my agent said it was the most thorough condition report she had seen. Renewal went through without the dreaded re-inspection."
"We were selling our College Park house and the buyer's inspector flagged the roof. JA Edwards inspected the next day, documented that the roof had 8+ years of life left, and the deal closed on schedule. That report saved the sale."

What Orlando homeowners say
We are so happy that we made the decision to trust our roof replacement to Joel Vazquez and JA Edwards of America. From the very first consultation to the final clean-up, the entire process was seamless. Joel's communication skills are top-tier; he kept us informed every step of the way and was always available to answer our questions.
Joel handled everything related to our insurance company and made sure they delivered on our coverage.
It is so hard to find contractors who actually do what they say they’re going to do, but Joel exceeded every expectation we had. His attention to detail was evident throughout- the job was perfect, the site was left clean, and our new roof and home look amazing.
If you want a stress-free experience and a beautiful new roof, Joel is first person you should call.
Thank you Joel and JA Edwards!
I want to specifically call out Seth Wooten, our Project Manager, who helped us with every step of the process—from working with our insurance company to getting the job done and everything in between. Seth is super caring and a phenomenal communicator; he made the whole experience stress-free.
A special thank you to the crew for their quality work. They made our roof look beautiful and secure, and they finished it all in just one day. If you are looking for a roofing company, look no further than JAEA!
Getting a roof through insurance can be a headache, but Wilson is super knowledgeable and made the whole process seamless for us. He was helpful, transparent, and always available to answer our questions. If you’re thinking about getting a new roof, I would highly recommend this team. They get the job done right!

Roof inspection questions, answered
Really free, and there is no catch. The business logic is simple: about a third of the roofs we inspect need nothing or a small repair, and we tell those homeowners exactly that. The other portion need real work, and homeowners who got an honest answer the first time call us back when the roof actually ages out. The free inspection is how we earn that call.
Once a year after the roof passes 10 to 12 years old, and after any storm event with hail or sustained high wind in your area. Orlando's UV intensity and daily thermal cycling age shingles faster than national averages suggest, so the inspection schedule that works in Ohio is too relaxed for Orange County.
Yes. Our reports follow the documentation format carriers expect: dated photos by slope, condition notes per component, and clear identification of any storm-related damage versus normal wear. Homeowners use our reports for renewals, underwriting re-inspections, and as the foundation for storm claims.
For the exterior, no. The inspector can complete the roof and exterior portions with access to the property. We do recommend being home if possible, because the attic ventilation check requires interior access and the walkthrough of findings is more useful in person. Either way, the full report arrives by email within 24 hours.
General home inspectors look at the roof from a ladder or with a drone and note visible issues. They are generalists. A roofing contractor inspection walks the surface, lifts shingles where needed, checks fastening and sealant condition, and evaluates against manufacturer installation specs. When a home inspector flags "possible roof issues," this inspection is what determines whether the issue is real and what it costs.
You get the findings in the report with photos, an honest classification of repair versus replacement, and a written price if you want one. If the damage looks storm-related, we explain the insurance claim path including what is realistic and what is not. There is no obligation at any point. The report is yours regardless of what you decide.
Yes, and it is one of the smartest times to do it. A pre-listing inspection lets you address roof findings on your terms before the buyer's inspector frames them during negotiation. If the roof is in good shape, the documented report becomes a selling point. If it needs work, you decide between repairing, pricing it in, or replacing before listing.

A roof inspection in Orlando
is not optional maintenance
Roofs in Orlando live a harder life than almost anywhere in the country. The UV index here runs extreme for most of the year, the daily cycle of morning heat, afternoon storm and evening cooling flexes shingles thousands of times per season, and hail season from March through July adds impact damage that hides under granules until it leaks. A roof rated for 30 years up north routinely ages out in 15 to 18 here, and the failure rarely announces itself before the water does.
That is the case for inspection as a habit rather than a reaction. An annual inspection on a roof past its tenth year catches the cracked pipe boot before it becomes a stained ceiling, documents the hail bruising while the claim window is still open, and builds the condition record that Florida insurance carriers increasingly demand at renewal. JA Edwards of America has inspected Orlando roofs since 2004, our inspectors are backed by the GAF Master Elite standard that fewer than 2% of contractors hold, and the inspection costs you exactly nothing.
The honest part matters too. A free inspection from a company that needs to sell you a roof is a sales visit with a ladder. Ours ends with a written photo report in your inbox within 24 hours and a recommendation that is right about a third of the time: do nothing. We can afford to say that because homeowners who get a straight answer at year 12 call us at year 17, and because our Orlando operation replaces five roofs a week without needing to invent a sixth.
If the inspection finds something, the path forward is documented and priced in writing, whether that is a repair, a replacement, or a storm damage claim. Book online or call (407) 677-7663 and ask for an inspection this week.
