BEWARE OF JAC BUILDERS ROOFING
After Hurricane Milton, I hired JAC Builders Roofing to replace my roof. They quoted me $28,700, and completed the job in February 2025. From the ground, everything looked fine... until I had to climb up in July to clean out the gutters near my pool cage.
That's when I discovered something shocking:
They only did part of my roof.
The section over the pool lanai -- which is fully attached to the house -- was completely untouched. Even worse, my old roof is tan and the new roof is black, making it painfully obvious once you're up there.
How do you "replace a roof" and leave part of it off -- without telling the homeowner?

More Issues I Found:
* While installing the new drip edge, they cut slits down the backside of the gutters, almost to the bottom of my gutters in 4 different places.
* In one section, they nailed the gutter through the drip edge 3 times -- leaving two exposed holes.
* Their "solution"? Someone came out and smeared caulk in the slits. That's it.
The Response (Or Lack of One):
I contacted Chris, the person who gave me the estimate. He tried blaming the insurance company. But let's be clear:
JAC gave me the estimate (Nowhere mentioning flat section was excluded).
My insurance paid the estimate -- in full.
In fact, they paid $37,240, including $8,540 for two tarps that I never got to keep and my deductible.
When I sent a detailed letter directly to the owner, Joshua Colon, I received no response at all.
My Take:
As a homeowner with no background in roofing, when I'm quoted for a full roof replacement, I expect the whole roof -- not just the parts they feel like doing.
To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.
To say I feel misled is more accurate.
Final Word:
In my opinion, JAC Builders Roofing is dishonest, unprofessional, and lacks accountability. I urge fellow homeowners to think twice -- or better yet, run -- before trusting this company with your home.
Don't let what happened to me happen to you. read more
