Tip Top Roofing Named 2025 Central Florida's Favorite Roofer

Central Florida voted — and Tip Top Roofing Company is the 2025 Favorite Roofer.

When the 2025 Orlando Sentinel Readers' Choice votes were tallied, the title for the region's best roofer went to a name Central Florida families have trusted for generations. Tip Top Roofing Company was voted 2025 Central Florida's Favorite Roofer — and for a family-owned company that has protected homes here since 1972, no recognition could mean more. It didn't come from an algorithm or an advertising budget. It came from our neighbors. Here's what the honor represents, the 53-year story behind it, and the promise we intend to keep.

An Honor Voted by Our Neighbors

What makes this award meaningful is exactly where it came from: the homeowners and business owners of Central Florida. Readers across the six counties we serve — Orange, Seminole, Volusia, Osceola, Lake, and Brevard — chose Tip Top by name. That kind of recognition can't be bought; it can only be earned, one honest roof at a time. It's the same trust that already made us a Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave and that brings roughly 95% of our work from referrals and repeat customers — neighbors telling neighbors that we did right by them.

53 Years in the Making

An honor like this isn't built in a single season. Tip Top Roofing has been a family business since 1972, and three generations have carried it forward with the same values we started with. Today the company is led by president Lee Wallace, who spent nearly three decades mastering every part of the trade before taking the helm from his father. His philosophy says everything about how we work: "You're paying for the roof, but we still own it." To us, a roof isn't a transaction that ends at the final invoice — it carries the Tip Top name for as long as it's on your home, and we stand behind it that way.

What Earned It

We think the recognition comes down to a handful of things we've never been willing to compromise on:

• Honest assessments. We tell you what your roof actually needs — no pressure, and never a bigger job than the situation calls for.
• Superior materials and code-correct installation. We don't cut corners on the parts you can't see, because that's where Florida roofs quietly succeed or fail.
• Manufacturer-certified workmanship. We're GAF Certified for residential roofing and a GAF Master Elite contractor on the commercial side — a status fewer than 2% of contractors nationwide hold.
• Full insurance-claim guidance. When storm damage is involved, we walk homeowners through the entire process, from assessment to final installation, as your roofing contractor.
• Treating every customer like a neighbor. Because here in Central Florida, they usually are.

What the Title Means for Your Roof

For a homeowner, an award like this is more than a feel-good headline — it's a useful shortcut. Choosing a roofer is one of the more consequential decisions you'll make for your home, and Florida's climate is unforgiving: relentless UV, heavy summer downpours, and a hurricane season that runs June through November. A contractor the community has vouched for, with five decades of local roofs behind it, takes a lot of the risk out of that decision. You're not gambling on a company that may not be around when a warranty matters — you're hiring one that has been part of Central Florida longer than most of its competitors have been in business.

Backed by Real Credentials

Awards are wonderful, but they sit on top of a foundation of credentials you can verify. Tip Top is licensed and insured, BBB-accredited with an A+ rating, and we stand behind every project with both a workmanship warranty and the manufacturer warranty on your materials. If you'd like to see the work and the words behind the title, our customer reviews and our family story tell it better than we can.

A Promise, Not a Finish Line

Being named Central Florida's Favorite Roofer raises the bar — and that's exactly how we want it. We don't see this as a trophy for the shelf; we see it as a promise to keep doing right by every homeowner and business who trusts us with their roof, this year and for the next fifty. The values that earned the honor — family-oriented service, ethical practices, and superior quality — are the same ones we'll show up with on your project.
