The area of Dr. Phillips was named after Philip Phillips, a Central Florida citrus entrepreneur who owned thousands of acres of groves by the early 1920's and was responsible for innovations in the processing and packaging of orange juice. Today, Dr. Phillips is known for its elegant estates, golf courses (home of the Bay Hill Invitational PGA Tour event), "Restaurant Row" filled with a wide variety of places to eat and home to Universal Orlando Resort. The Dr Phillips area holds a special place for Northmen Dean, Travis and Jesse who spent their childhood in the area and graduates of Southwest Middle School and Dr. Phillips High School. It is this passion for our hometown communities that has led to the "Neighborhood Favorite" distinction on the Nextdoor app in several Dr. Phillips communities thanks to the wonderful reviews and recommendations of our clients. It is always a pleasure to bump into friends and family while servicing our Dr. Phillips specialties including tile roof repairs and replacement, Chimney refurbishment, and balcony waterproofing.

Dr. Phillips Tile Roof Repairs

The Northmen Roofing team can be found in Dr. Phillips serving the tile roof communities on a daily basis. Many communities were established in the 1990s and early 2000s meaning those tile roofs are approaching end of life and generally in need of consistent service and maintenance. As tile roof specialist our goal is to extend the life of the tile roof while also considering the cost/benefit of continued ownership. Often repairs and continued maintenance are the way to go but on occasion it may be advised to conduct a roof replacement which is the better long term value. Additional challenges in this area are lake front homes, which are generally subjected to higher consistent winds and moisture, and residents at Golf course communities which combat the occasional high speed flying object.

Tile roofs are a luxury roof system in Dr. Phillips that also have the highest cost of ownership. However, if properly maintained and repaired they can last as long as 50 years. Intimate knowledge of the different variations is needed for successful tile water proofing. Whether replacing a few broken roof tiles or performing a partial system re-build, our team can do what's necessary to meet our customers waterproofing needs.

Dr. Phillips Flat Roof Repairs

Most homes in Dr. Phillips were built after 1960s when the traditional tar and gravel flat roofs were much more common in Central Florida. As such, most of the flat roofs in Dr. Phillips are complimentary to the tile or shingle roof and are seen on smaller areas of a larger home. For instance, a dead valley on a tile roof or middle of a high slope roof on a large estate. The Northmen Roofing team are experts on these complimentary systems and specifically how they tie into the main tile roof. The transitions between two roofing systems is typically a challenging location that may require custom metal flashings that we produce in our in house metal shop.

Dr. Phillips Liquid Applied Roof Coatings

Northmen Roofing has been on the forefront of cutting edge low slope/flat roof system technology that is rapidly gaining in popularity in Central Florida. It can be safely and quietly installed on residential, commercial and multi-family homes with minimal disruption to building occupiers. Liquid applied roofing systems are a fantastic alternative to system replacements under the proper circumstances. If the substrate has been properly maintained a liquid coating can be applied at generally the same cost of a replacement, with the added benefit of a full 12 year warranty from the liquid coating manufacturer. Additional benefit of this system is the ability to apply just a new top coat after the warranty has expired (at a fraction of the cost) which then renews the warranty period.

Northmen Roofing is a Platinum Contractor and partner with American Weatherstar and most commonly install the Ure-A-Sil Liquid roof coating system over TPO and Modified Bitumen.

Dr. Phillips Balcony Waterproofing

Waterproof balconies and terraces are very common in Dr. Phillips estates and are one of the most difficult areas to waterproof; often improperly constructed using incorrect materials and techniques. The staff of Northmen Roofing are certified Tremco and Kemper Systems installers which are the most premium products available backed by no-dollar-limit (NDL) warranties up to 20 years. These cutting edge products are also used on parking garage floors, rooftop pools, green roofs and even the launch pad on the Space Coast -- these systems were made to be subjected to very heavy traffic, heat and water! Between these high shelf waterproofing products and techniques in addition to the in-house sheet metal fabrication, we are able to offer unique and long last solutions for balcony waterproofing and refurbishment.

Dr. Phillips Commercial Roofing

Detailed project management and coordination with client schedules, budgetary restrictions, maintenance needs, and coordination between the HOA, third party engineers, residents/tenants and other trades is critically important. Northmen Roofing has certified Project Managers on staff, highly trained in-house personnel with various backgrounds and capabilities, and a network of like minded partners to help any large scale roofing project.
