For more than 40 years, Forrest and Son Roofing has been a cornerstone of reliability and trust in the roofing industry. Founded by Henry Forrest’s grandfather, the company was built on the values of hard work, integrity, and community service. After years of working for another roofing company, Henry’s grandfather took the leap to start his own business, laying the foundation for what has become a multi-generational legacy.
Today, Henry Forrest continues to carry the torch, ensuring that Forrest and Son Roofing remains a trusted name for homeowners and businesses alike. In an industry often plagued by storm chasers and fly-by-night operations, maintaining an honest and reputable roofing business is no small feat. But as Henry says, “One bad apple doesn’t ruin the whole bunch.”
“If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life,”
A Roofing Company That Cares
Forrest and Son Roofing isn’t just about shingles and repairs—it’s about people. When hurricanes strike, Henry and his team don’t just patch roofs; they step up for their community. Delivering bottled water, canned food, and essential supplies, they provide a helping hand when their neighbors need it most.
The company also gives back in other ways, supporting local youth baseball teams, participating in food drives for the homeless, and offering discounts to local customers. Their dedication to community service reflects their deep-rooted belief in the strength of their hometown. “We are Florida Strong,” Henry says with pride.
Quality, Professionalism, and Customer Satisfaction
Forrest and Son Roofing is built on three core principles: pride in workmanship, professionalism, and customer satisfaction. Every project they undertake is executed with precision and care, ensuring their clients remain safe and dry. As Henry puts it, “Just helping Florida stay dry on the inside.”
Their passion for their work keeps them motivated every day. “If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life,” Henry says. And of course, there’s the added perk—roofing helps pay for bait for fishing!
