Solvo Index scored 6 commercial roofing companies serving Plant City. Every company holds a Florida contractor license checked on DBPR and carries a confidence tier so you can weigh the score against how well documented it is.
Collis Roofing is the Verified pick at 76.9, just behind Stronghold Roofing's 77.0 on raw score, because Verified companies sort first.

No company can pay for a higher score. Verified companies sort first. How we score
Badges are single-fact superlatives among these 6, each tied to one sourced number, never a blended score. Not a competition for #1: a company can hold more than one.

Collis Roofing is the Verified company on this list. License CCC058022 is Current and Active through 08/31/2028. Birdeye lists 4.4 from 163 reviews and splits the count into Google 150 and BBB 12. The Google profile URL was not found. A BBB letter grade is not used as the star rating.
Strengths: Collis Roofing is the Verified company. License CCC058022 is Current and Active through 2028-08-31. The DBPR record prints CCC058022, which scores 5.

Those phrases do not match GAF Master Elite or Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, so those 2-point rows stay empty. The review record used here is 4.4 from 163 Birdeye. The service list confirms 5 of 14. Local or national: Regional.
Weaknesses: The about page says Collis was founded in 1994. The DBPR licensure date is 08/01/2000, which is later, so Track Record uses 26 years from that date. TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, metal, flat or low-slope, inspections, insurance claims help, and skylights or drainage were not named on that page.
Our Take: Collis Roofing is the Verified company on this list. License CCC058022 is Current and Active through 08/31/2028. The score uses the six published inputs.

The commercial hub and the other cities in this market use the same rubric.
Every company is scored 0-10 in six weighted categories against fixed written anchors, using only sourced, dated evidence. Service Capability uses the commercial list of 14. The other five inputs stay on the roofing rules. A company is numbered only when its own site names commercial work and the place, and Florida DBPR shows a current roofing license.
