AfterFast, Reliable Roofing Across Immokalee
Roofing in Immokalee means dealing with a set of conditions you won’t find twenty minutes west in Naples or Bonita Springs. We’re talking about manufactured homes built before Florida’s 1994 wind code overhaul, farmworker labor camp barracks that answer to two different inspection agencies, and flat agricultural terrain that gave Hurricane Irma a clear shot at every roof in 2017. Barrett & Sons Construction has been doing this work since 1998, and our Roofing team knows exactly what happens when an older Immokalee roof gets opened up. If you need a straight answer about what your roof needs and what it’ll cost, call Tom at (877) 610-1318. You’ll get a live person, not a call center.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Immokalee’s Preferred Roofing Company
We live in Southwest Florida. We drive the same roads, stand in the same permitting lines, and work alongside the same inspector who signs off on your permits. That matters in Immokalee because the roof over your head has to answer to Collier County’s building department and, if it’s a labor camp facility, to the Florida Department of Health too. We’ve pulled permits for both. Most roofing crews working in Collier County have never once set foot in a labor camp inspection, and it shows when they bid a job and get the sequencing wrong.
Tom Barrett’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. Look it up before you sign anything. That’s not a line we use to sound trustworthy, it’s an invitation. We also put the 90-Day Done Right Promise on every written contract: if something’s not right, one call brings Tom back. No games, no voicemail tag, no third-party warranty line.
And our response time to Immokalee is honest. We coordinate from our South Florida office, but crews serve Immokalee locally. When a storm rolls through or a leak opens up, we’re not scheduling you three weeks out. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll get eyes on your roof.
Our Roofing Services in Immokalee
We focus on the roof types that actually exist in Immokalee, which means older mobile homes, manufactured housing, labor camp barracks, and the occasional newer affordable build. Here’s what that looks like.
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Immokalee usually starts with a leak at a skylight, vent, or pipe penetration. On older manufactured homes, the flashing was often installed with sealant that gave out years ago. We find the source, write the scope, and tell you what it costs before we send a crew. No surprise invoice at the end. Typical roof repair in Immokalee runs $400-$1,800.
Roof Replacement & Installation
This is the big one for pre-1994 housing stock. When a roof has been soaked through by wet-season humidity and Hurricane Irma’s wind, spot repair often isn’t worth doing. We’ll tell you that plainly. A full roof replacement in Immokalee typically runs $8,000-$20,000, and that price only moves when we hand you a written change order. The permit gets pulled, the inspector signs off, and the job is done right.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roofing is one of the best choices for Immokalee’s climate, and it works especially well on manufactured homes that need stronger uplift resistance. We install standing seam panels, not cheap corrugated sheets. Metal roof installation in Immokalee runs $15,000-$40,000 depending on the size of the roof and whether we’re replacing sheathing underneath. On a 1980s mobile home off State Road 29, we found original tie-downs that were only toenailed into the rim joists, no metal connectors at all. The underside of the deck was spongy from years of condensation. We wrote the allowance into the scope before we started, pulled the permit, replaced the sheathing and straps, and got the Collier County inspector to sign off before panels went on. Three dry days, done.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile roofs are less common in Immokalee than in Naples or Bonita Springs, but they’re out there, mostly on newer builds and some ranch-style homes approaching the orange groves. Tile roof repair in Immokalee runs $600-$2,500. The challenge with tile is that a broken tile rarely means just one tile, water works its way under the whole section. We inspect the underlayment and tell you what actually needs fixing, not what’s easy to bill.

Trusted Brands We Service in Immokalee
We install GAF and CertainTeed roofing systems because they’re brands anyone can look up and verify. No mystery materials off the back of a van. When a roof in Immokalee needs flashing, underlayment, or a specific vent, we source what fits the existing system, not whatever generic part happens to be in stock. That’s how you get a roof that lasts through the next hurricane season instead of leaking again in June.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Immokalee Homes
- Missing or corroded hurricane straps. Cut off the power supply and isolate on the pre-1994 homes, this is the single most common issue. Gable ends lift during even minor tropical events when the original straps were never installed or have rusted through from decades of wet-season humidity. We see this on nearly every older manufactured home we open up.
- Leaks at skylight and vent penetrations in labor camp barracks. These roofs are old, and maintenance has been inconsistent for years. Flashing corrodes, sealant hardens and pulls away, and water gets in around every penetration. The fix isn’t more caulk, it’s proper flashing replacement.
- Under-vented attics causing deck rot. In older framed homes without adequate ventilation, condensation builds up during the wet season and rots the decking from underneath. By the time you see a stain on the ceiling, the roof deck is often too far gone for a spot repair. That’s when a full replacement becomes the honest recommendation.
- Failed tie-downs on mobile homes. The original tie-downs on pre-1994 mobile homes were frequently just toenails into rim joists, no metal connectors at all. After Irma, a lot of Immokalee homeowners found that out the hard way. We check for this on every mobile home roof we touch.
Pricing for Roofing in Immokalee, FL
Roofing prices in Immokalee track with the age and condition of the structure more than anything else. A newer manufactured home with intact sheathing costs less than a 1980s unit that needs new decking and hurricane straps before any roofing material goes down. Here’s the honest range for the sub-services we handle most in Immokalee.
| Service | Typical Range in Immokalee |
|---|---|
| Roof Replacement | $8,000 - $20,000 |

What moves the price: whether the decking underneath is salvageable, whether hurricane straps need to be added or replaced, and whether the structure needs a Department of Health inspection on top of the building permit. We account for all of that in the written scope before we start. Estimates are free. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a number you can actually plan around.

FAQs - Roofing in Immokalee
Yes. Labor camp facilities in Immokalee answer to both the Collier County building department and the Florida Department of Health’s agricultural labor camp inspection program. The permit inspector looks at structural and wind-load compliance. The Department of Health looks at habitability, sanitation, and occupancy standards. We sequence the work so both inspections happen in the right order, because if you rough in a roof repair before the health inspection clears, you can end up tearing work out and starting over. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote on your facility, estimates are free.
If your mobile home was built before 1994, the honest answer is that it probably doesn’t, not by current standards. The original tie-downs on many of these units were toenailed into rim joists without metal connectors, and hurricane straps either weren’t installed or have corroded badly. The only way to know is to pull back the roof edge and look. We’ll do that during a free estimate. If your roof needs straps and decking before re-roofing, we write it into the scope as an allowance, so you see the number on paper before anything happens. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule.
Because the leak you see in June has usually been rotting the decking since last year’s wet season. In Immokalee’s climate, humidity inside an under-vented attic creates condensation that soaks the roof deck from underneath. By the time water reaches your ceiling, the sheathing is often too soft to hold fasteners. We’ll cut back the roofing and show you what’s under there. If the deck is gone in more than a few spots, a full replacement is the honest call, and it’s cheaper than paying for a patch now and a full roof in eighteen months. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll explain exactly what you’re looking at.
In most cases, yes. We’ve replaced roofs on occupied mobile homes in Immokalee with families staying inside. The key is sequencing: we remove and replace the roofing in sections, keep the interior protected, and coordinate the inspection so the structure is never left exposed overnight during the wet season. It takes more planning, and we write that sequence into the scope before the first day of work. If the damage is too extensive, we’ll tell you that too before you spend a dollar. Call (877) 610-1318 to talk through your specific situation.
After a tile roof repair in Immokalee, your punch list should include checking the underlayment under the replaced tiles, confirming all tiles around the repair are seated flat, and verifying the flashing at any adjacent penetrations. On older homes especially, a broken tile is rarely just one broken tile, water has often worked under a wider section. We walk the roof with you or send pictures, and if something’s not right, the 90-Day Done Right Promise covers it. One call to (877) 610-1318 brings Tom back.
