Frontenac is a small unincorporated stretch of US-1 between Port St. John and Sharpes, on the river side of the highway. It was one of the old settlements along the Indian River before the space program, and it kept its own name when Port St. John grew up around it. The housing is older and mixed: 1950s and 1960s block homes on the river streets, mobile homes, and a few newer houses on lots that were cleared and rebuilt after the 2004 storms.
The lagoon is right there. Riverfront roofs on this stretch take wind across several miles of open water, and the salt air reaches every fastener. Frontenac is county territory, so a reroof is a Brevard County permit.
This site connects Frontenac homeowners with an independent local roofing contractor by phone. It does not perform the work.
A 1960s river house with rust in the valleys is a roof repair question that starts in the attic. A shingle roof at the end of its life on a lot facing the lagoon is a roof replacement, and whether it comes back as shingle or metal is a conversation about exposure. A manufactured home roof-over that has peeled at the edge in wind is a storm call.
Permits go through Brevard County. The landmark on this stretch of US-1 is Florida Power and Light's Cape Canaveral Clean Energy Center, the natural-gas plant that replaced the 1960s power station built to run the space race, and its stacks are visible from most of the river streets.
Call (321) 490-0701 to be connected with a local roofing contractor serving Frontenac.
A lifted shingle, a rusted valley, a split pipe boot, or a drip that shows up with every afternoon storm, traced to its source and fixed.
Tear-off to the deck, plank boards checked and replaced where soft, new underlayment, and a new roof permitted through the city or Brevard County.
Tarping, photos, and repair after wind off the lagoon, a fallen oak, or a named storm crossing the Space Coast opens the roof.
A walk on the roof and a look in the attic, written up with photos for a renewal letter, a home sale, or a check before June 1.
Standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal for riverfront, rural, and outbuilding roofs, specified for salt air off the Indian River.
The state wind-mitigation inspection form, and the deck nailing, straps, and secondary water barrier that earn credits on it during a reroof.
Reroofing 1960s space-boom homes: plank decking, low-slope hips, flat sections, and the code upgrades the permit requires.
What to photograph, what a contractor's written scope gives the adjuster, and how Florida's roof-claim rules work after a storm.
