If your roof is leaking or just looking tired after twelve Florida summers, call us at (844) 638-7249.

Why Groundwork Construction Co. of Fort Myers Is Nocatee’s Preferred Roofing Company
We have spent years earning trust in Nocatee by doing the thing most contractors won’t: putting our 730-Day Done Right Promise in writing, on every job, no fine print. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That guarantee means something real here, where homes built between 2007 and 2015 are hitting the age where builder warranties have expired and first-generation roofing materials are failing. Homeowners in Tidewater, Seabrook, and Austin Park call us because they know we show up with background-checked, uniformed technicians who understand Nocatee’s unique permitting path, not a sub crew in an unmarked truck. We offer upfront pricing with no change-order games, and with 0% financing for 18 months and $1,000 off projects over $10,000, a full roof replacement becomes a planned upgrade rather than a financial emergency.
Derek Hollenbeck built this company on a simple idea: a construction partner should be held to the same standard you hold yourself. That is why our crews are trained on the specific architectural review standards Nocatee’s villages enforce, why we carry GAF and CertainTeed materials on our trucks for fast color-matched repairs, and why we file the CDD drainage impact affidavit before pulling the county permit on any project that alters gutter discharge. We coordinate from our South Florida office and dispatch crews directly to Nocatee, so you deal with one accountable team from the estimate through the final inspection.
Our Roofing Services in Nocatee
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Nocatee typically runs $400 to $1,800, depending on what failed and how much water got behind it before you caught it. The most common call we get from Nocatee homeowners is a leak around a pipe boot or a poorly flashed roof-to-wall intersection, especially on those second-story step-down details on David Weekley and Toll Brothers models where stucco veneer hides slow soffit rot until the paint bubbles. We match existing shingle profiles, Owens Corning Duration or GAF Timberline, so the repair blends and the HOA architectural committee signs off without pushing you toward a full reroof. Call (844) 638-7249 for a free estimate. We will give you a written, line-item quote before any work starts.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Nocatee ranges from $8,000 to $20,000. The spread depends on square footage, pitch, whether you are tearing off one layer or two, and which material you choose. Homes in the original Tidewater village, built around 2007-2012, are squarely in the window where builder-grade asphalt shingles are reaching end of life. You may not see daylight through the decking yet, but granule loss heavy enough to clog the CDD retention pond inlets is a sign the shingles are cooked. We handle the tear-off, deck inspection, any required sheathing replacement, and full installation with a new synthetic underlayment and architectural shingles rated for Florida’s wind uplift requirements. And because we have done this work on dozens of Nocatee streets, we file the CDD drainage affidavit as a standard step, not an afterthought.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roof installation in Nocatee runs $15,000 to $40,000. The higher upfront cost buys a roof that easily outlasts two asphalt cycles, reflects Florida sun rather than absorbing it, and meets the wind-resistance standards that St. Johns County enforces. For homeowners looking to upgrade from builder-grade asphalt, we walk you through the HOA architectural review submission, including the required material samples and color swatches. We have installed standing seam metal on homes from Crosswater to Twenty Mile, and we know which panel profiles and Kynar 500 finishes pass review without pushback. 0% financing for 18 months makes the cost difference far more manageable than most people expect.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile roofs are common across Nocatee, particularly on higher-end ICI Homes and Toll Brothers executive models with covered lanais. Tile repair here ranges $600 to $2,500, depending on the number of cracked or slipped tiles and the condition of the underlayment beneath them. One failure pattern we see repeatedly: the original polyethylene underlayment on lanai roofs degrades faster than the tile itself, and the first clue is ponding water on the concrete deck after a normal rain. We lift and reset tile, replace the underlayment with a high-grade synthetic, and re-bed ridge caps so the repair is invisible from the street. If the tile profile has been discontinued, we source matching profiles through our supply network so you are not forced into a mismatched patch.

Trusted Brands We Service in Nocatee
We stock and install GAF and CertainTeed roofing products on most Nocatee jobs because both manufacturers offer wind-rated architectural shingle lines that satisfy St. Johns County code and Nocatee architectural review standards. When you need a tile profile match on an older home or a specific standing seam panel gauge, we pull from our network rather than making you wait on a distributor backorder. Our crews are factory-trained on these systems, and our 730-Day Done Right Promise covers the full installation regardless of which shingle, tile, or metal panel you choose. You pick the material. We stand behind the work, in writing.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Nocatee Homes
- Builder-grade shingle failure on 2007-2015 homes. The original asphalt shingles installed on early Nocatee phases are hitting the 12- to 17-year mark, and Florida sun is unforgiving. Granule loss is not just cosmetic; it clogs CDD retention pond inlets and triggers HOA notices. By the time you see curling edges, the shingle seal strips have likely failed and wind uplift becomes a real risk.
- Improperly flashed second-story step-downs. On many Toll Brothers and David Weekley floor plans, the roof-to-wall intersection at the second-floor setback relies on step flashing that was installed quickly during production building. Over time, the sealant cracks and water wicks behind the stucco, rotting soffit framing that you cannot see until the paint bubbles. We probe these areas on every Nocatee roof inspection.
- Underlayment degradation on tile roofs over lanais. The polyethylene underlayment originally installed under barrel tile on lanai roofs breaks down faster than the tile, especially on south-facing exposures. Water ponds on the concrete deck because the underlayment is no longer shedding water, even though the tile looks fine from above.
- Gutter discharge violations on metal roof retrofits. When an asphalt roof is upgraded to metal, the faster water-shedding often overruns existing gutters or changes the discharge point. Since Nocatee’s CDD owns the stormwater network, any modification that alters lot drainage requires their sign-off. We handle that as part of the permit package so the project does not stall.
Pricing for Roofing in Nocatee, FL
Roofing costs in Nocatee track with the higher material and wind-code standards that St. Johns County enforces.

FAQs - Roofing in Nocatee
If the replacement uses the same material and color as the existing roof and does not alter gutter discharge points or add new downspouts, CDD drainage approval is generally not required and you proceed with standard St. Johns County permitting. However, if your contractor discovers rotted decking that changes the roof plane, or if you add a drip edge that redirects water flow, the CDD may require a drainage impact affidavit. We include that review as a routine part of our pre-permit checklist so it never blindsides the project timeline. Call (844) 638-7249 and we can tell you within a few minutes whether your specific job triggers CDD review.
For Nocatee homes where the original builder’s structural warranty has expired, which includes most houses built before 2015, upgrading to standing seam metal has no warranty implications. For newer homes still under a builder’s structural warranty, the roof covering itself is typically excluded from that warranty anyway, but you should verify with your builder. The bigger hurdle is the Nocatee architectural review board, which requires samples, color submittals, and a description of the panel profile. We prepare that submittal for you, and we have never had a standing seam metal roof application denied when submitted with the proper documentation. A metal roof here starts around $15,000; call us for an exact quote.
My 2010 Toll Brothers home in Tidewater has original flat tile. Should I replace early or repair and hold?
At 14 to 16 years old, the concrete tile itself on a 2010 Toll Brothers home likely has decades of life left. The weak point is the underlayment beneath it. If you are not seeing interior leaks and a roof inspection confirms the underlayment is intact, targeted repairs in the $600 to $2,500 range make more sense than a premature full replacement. We recommend having us inspect the underlayment condition, especially over the lanai and any south-facing slopes where heat degradation accelerates. If the underlayment is failing in multiple sections, a lift-and-relay with new synthetic underlayment runs toward the upper end of the repair range but buys you another 15-plus years. Call (844) 638-7249 for a roof inspection; we will give you an honest recommendation, not a sales pitch.
What gutter modifications do I need for a metal roof on a Nocatee home with sandy fill?
Metal roofs shed water faster than asphalt shingles, which often means your existing 5-inch gutters are undersized for the volume. On Nocatee lots with sandy fill, that concentrated discharge can erode the soil at the downspout outlet and alter the lot grading, which the CDD specifically regulates. We typically upgrade to 6-inch gutters with larger downspouts and add splash blocks or pop-up emitters that discharge to a stable area. Because that changes the drainage flow, we file the CDD affidavit as part of the permit. This is not optional in Nocatee, and skipping it has stalled more than a few projects that other contractors started. Our estimate includes the gutter work and the CDD coordination so you see the complete cost up front.
Does Nocatee’s architectural review board restrict the style of barrel tile I can install as a replacement?
Yes, Nocatee’s architectural review standards require that replacement roofing match the original approved material and profile or be submitted as a material change with samples. For barrel tile, that means a two-piece cap-and-pan profile in a color within the approved palette for your village. Flat tile replacements must match the original flat profile. We pull the original submittal records for your village when possible and match the tile before we order, which avoids the rejection and re-order cycle that delays the job. If the original tile has been discontinued, we find a conforming alternative and submit it with the HOA application. Call (844) 638-7249; we will walk you through the process and give you a firm price for the entire job.
