About Gulf Lyfe

Roofing & Construction

Your Local, Family-Owned Roofing Experts

At Gulf Lyfe Roofing & Construction, we believe that roofing is more than just shingles and nails — it's about protecting what matters most. As a family-owned business based right here in Southwest Florida, we’re proud to serve our neighbors with integrity, reliability, and craftsmanship you can count on.

We specialize in residential and commercial re-roofs, with a strong focus on helping homeowners recover and rebuild after Florida’s toughest storms. Whether you need a brand-new roof, repairs, or expert guidance navigating insurance claims, we’re here to walk you through every step — like family would.

Built on Experience. Driven by Service.

What started as a dream between husband-and-wife team Travis and Amanda has grown into one of SWFL’s most trusted roofing companies. Travis brings years of hands-on construction and roofing experience to every job, while Amanda handles the operations, permits, marketing, and making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.


We’ve built our reputation one roof at a time, focusing on honest communication, high-quality materials, and doing what we say we’ll do — every single time.

Living the Gulf Lyfe
