This week’s Sunday Spotlight shines on Juarez Roofing LLC, a locally owned roofing company based right here in Havana.
Owned by Monica Juarez, the company will celebrate 7 years in business this May. Roofing runs in the family… Monica says her husband Ricardo has always loved construction, and the two first launched M&R Renovations back in 2014, which is still going strong today. Construction also runs deep in Monica’s family… her father retired from AJAX Building Corp in the mid-2000s, and her stepfather was one of the best known residential brick masons in Tallahassee.
Juarez Roofing has built its reputation the old-fashioned way… word of mouth. Monica says they don’t really advertise, and most of their work comes from happy customers recommending them to friends and neighbors.
As a woman-owned and minority-owned business, Monica takes pride in running a small company focused on craftsmanship and attention to detail. In fact, she says they’ve never had to return to a completed roof due to workmanship issues… something that speaks to the quality of their work.
Their most popular installs are Owens Corning shingles, though Monica admits she especially enjoys projects involving mechanical standing seam metal roofs… a product she says is both durable and beautiful.
Monica and her family moved to the area about six years ago to live near Lake Tallavana, drawn by the peaceful setting and the small-town feel that makes this community special.
When she’s not on the job, Monica enjoys visiting the monthly Havana Market, spending time outdoors, photographing sunsets, crafting, and hanging out with her dogs.
She also enjoys supporting other local favorites like Flower and Photography by Cindy Aho and Doering’s Doughs… especially the sourdough.
Monica says everything they’ve built has come through dedication and sacrifice… starting with very little and working hard to grow their businesses and support their family. She’s also proud of a big family milestone coming up… their daughter will graduate from the University of Alabama this spring.
