What Edwards Roofing does

Edwards Roofing Co., Inc. is a 4th generation family-owned commercial and industrial roofing contractor founded in 1935 and headquartered in Pensacola, Florida. The company installs, maintains, repairs, and restores roofing systems across multiple material types, including TPO and PVC single-ply thermoplastic membranes, metal roofing (aluminum standing seam, R-panel, Petersen Aluminium snap clad), built-up roofing, modified bitumen, and green roofing systems. Edwards Roofing is licensed as a Florida Certified Roofing Contractor (CCC 1329298) and Certified Building Contractor (CBC 056818), with additional licensure in Alabama and Georgia, enabling service delivery across the Southeastern U.S.

The company's core service lines are Commercial Roofing (new installation and replacement), Roof Maintenance and Repair (including the recurring Elite Roof Maintenance Program), and Roof Restoration (cleaning, repair, and protective coatings). Services are sold directly through an enterprise field sales motion built around a structured consultation, customized quote, and implementation process. Pricing is quote-based with free roof inspections as the entry point, and revenue is generated primarily through project-based installation contracts supplemented by recurring maintenance agreements. Customer segments span government and municipal facilities, educational institutions, financial institutions, multi-family residential, retail, and hospitality across Florida, Alabama, and Georgia.

Leadership currently rests with Adam Purdy, who assumed management and ownership in 2015 and was elected the 99th President of the Florida Roofing and Sheet Metal Contractors Association in 2021. The company operates with 51-100 employees, a large fleet of vehicles, and an established supplier network including GAF, Carlisle, Johns Manville, Sika, Soprema, McElroy Metal, Derbigum, Petersen Aluminium, and Fibertite. Notable project experience includes Navy Federal Credit Union, Gulf Breeze Fire and Rescue, Gulf Winds Credit Union, University of West Florida, Cordova Collections shopping center, and multiple elementary schools.

Direct peers

• Bone Dry Roofing: Multi-state commercial and residential roofing contractor providing installation, repair, and maintenance services — comparable service lines and contractor-led delivery model, though operating across different geographies.
