FAQs
How long has Bob McKeithen & Sons been in business?
The company writes that it has proudly served the Big Bend area for over 35 years, under two generations of family leadership. Bob McKeithen, the founder, held a State Certified Contractors and Roofing license since 1972, and Rusty McKeithen serves as Vice President with over 29 years of experience and a State Certified Roofing license.
What types of roofs do you install?
The company installs shingle, metal, and flat roofing systems, and its service list also includes tile roofs. Every system it installs is certified with Florida Product Approval Numbers, as required by the State of Florida. Work covers new roofs, reroofs, and new construction for both homeowners and contractors.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. The contact page asks you to complete the request form for a free estimate. The form covers the work needed, the property address for the estimate, and your contact details. You can also call the office during business hours.
What warranty comes with a new roof?
The standard labor warranty ranges from 5 to 10 years. Because the company holds a certified partnership with CertainTeed, it can also offer the Integrity Roof System, which extends coverage on both material and labor for up to 50 years. The site notes that a normal manufacturer warranty fully covers material for the first 5 years and is prorated after that.
Do you repair roofs, or only replace them?
Both. The company handles roof repairs as well as full replacement. Its own guidance is that when a roof is leaking and needs only a repair, the priority is getting qualified technicians who can identify the problem and stop the leak. The site also recommends consistent, proactive maintenance as the best way to extend the life of a roof and avoid costly repairs.
Do you install gutters?
Yes. The company offers custom-fit seamless gutters, downspout installation, and gutter guards to prevent clogs, in durable materials with color options to match your home. Gutters can be added with a roof replacement or installed as an upgrade to an existing system. The company also offers custom metal trim packages, including eave, rake, ridge, valleys, headwall, sidewall, and transition flashing, all locally fabricated and available within 24 hours or less.
Is financing available?
Yes. The company offers financing through First Commerce Credit Union under its Commerce Connect program, described on the site as a quick online application with instant credit decisions and funds processed in 1 to 2 business days. Listed special offers include 3 months no payments, and 6 months no payments for purchases of $5,000 or more. The site notes those offers are for reference only and do not reflect exact payments.
Are there any local discounts?
Yes. Employees of Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare and Florida State University are eligible for exclusive discounts on roofing services. Contact the office to learn what applies to your project.
