Godwin Green Roofing
Godwin Green Roofing is a third-generation family owned roofing contractor based in Gainesville, Florida that has served Gainesville and Alachua County since 1974. The company was founded by William Godwin and passed in 2009 to his grandson Christopher Tenney, a University of Florida graduate who renamed the firm to reflect a focus on energy-efficient roofing and home improvements. Godwin installs 26-gauge Gulf-Lok standing seam metal roofing from Tri County Metals, Atlas Pinnacle Pristine architectural shingles, flat roof systems and complete green roofing packages for homes and commercial properties throughout North Central Florida. Related work includes solar-powered attic fans and continuous ridge vents, radiant heat barrier underlayment, blown-in fiberglass insulation at R-38 to R-60, and solar tube skylights that add daylight without adding heat. Christopher Tenney is the licensed contractor of record under Florida Certified Roofing Contractor license CCC#1329478, and the company states that all work is performed or directly supervised by him. Crews are in-house W-2 employees rather than subcontractors, covered by workers compensation and liability insurance, and every project is permitted with an in-progress and a final inspection under Florida Building Code. No deposit is required: payment is not due until the customer is fully satisfied, with 10 days to pay after the invoice is emailed. Installations carry a 5-year workmanship warranty on shingle roofs and a 10-year workmanship warranty on metal roofs, both fully transferable to the next homeowner. Financing is available for qualified homeowners on projects from $3,000 to $75,000, with fixed rate options and APR as low as 9.99% to 17.99%.
