Cardinal Contracting Inc

Cardinal Contracting handles storm damage differently than most roofing companies. Instead of showing up after severe weather with a generic repair pitch, the team focuses on proper documentation—the photos, measurements, and damage specifications that insurance adjusters need to process claims efficiently and fairly. Based in Macclenny, Cardinal has served Baker County since 2008. Storm damage restoration is a core competency, but the company handles the full range of roofing work: shingle and metal installations, flat roof systems for commercial properties, leak repairs, and the routine maintenance that extends roof life. The storm work brought focus and discipline to the operation—skills that apply to every project. When a storm damages your roof, Cardinal's process starts with thorough documentation. Not just photos of obvious damage, but measurements, material specifications, and repair scopes that describe what's needed and why. This approach helps legitimate claims get processed without unnecessary back-and-forth with adjusters. The goal isn't inflating claims—it's ensuring actual damage gets covered appropriately. The team handles residential and commercial properties across Baker County. Shingle work constitutes most residential projects, while commercial buildings often require flat roof systems or metal installations. Material recommendations are matched to the building and budget—not driven by whatever product offers the highest margin. Cardinal employs its own crews and maintains full insurance coverage. Workers' comp, liability, the protections that matter when people are working on your property. Subcontracting creates accountability gaps that can leave homeowners exposed. Cardinal avoids those gaps by keeping work in-house. Most of Cardinal's business comes from referrals. When someone recommends their roofing contractor to a neighbor, that means the project went well and the work is holding up. That pattern has been consistent for fifteen years in a county where word travels and reputation matters.
