Tampa roofing company is a fourth-generation, family-owned roofing business, in the same Tampa location since 1936.
Our family has been Florida's roofing experts for almost 90 years. Bob Rentz, the family patriarch, started Rentz Roofing in 1936, and in 1950, Bob's son-in-law, Morris Swope, changed the name to Tampa Roofing Company. Keith Swope, who has worked full-time for the company in the same Tampa, FL location since 1970, is Tampa Roofing Company’s current Vice President and has previously served as President of the industry's state trade association, the FSRA. Brian Swope, Bob's great-grandson, is the current Tampa Roofing Company President and led Tampa Roofing Company from 1985 to 2015. Brian is also the current president of the FRSA and has represented the roofing industry on the FL building commission since 2012. Our family has become synonymous with excellence in roofing, and we look forward to serving you.
Although Morris Swope (Lic#CCC008191), is now retired from Tampa Roofing Company, he stays active in the industry as a consultant. Both he and Keith (Lic #CCC032492), are State Certified Roofing Contractors Certified Professional Roofing Contractors through the Florida Roofing, Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors Association (FRSA). That’s good to know because FRSA Certification requires the contractor to meet criteria above and beyond the State of Florida’s requirements…and periodically update their certification.
As a matter of fact, Morris Swope was the first person who successfully passed the State of Florida’s licensing test, making him the first roofing contractor to be certified by the State of Florida. Both Morris and Brian Swope are also Certified Building Contractors.
