The Story

How Titan started.

The Titan story starts long before the name. In 1981, Donald W. Shackelford — a Florida Professional Engineer and the father of our founding principals — was building in South Florida the way things should be built. Not "to code" — beyondcode. Not "good enough" — actually correct.

Brandon and Shane grew up on his job sites and came up through the family business — drafting tables, project management, crews — installing windows, doors, and roofs across South Florida for decades under their father's standard. In 2024 they formed Titan Builders to put that lifetime of work under one name — licensed in both general contracting (CGC1537612) and roofing (CCC1334624), a combination that's uncommon in Florida and means a single company can handle both your impact-windows project and your roof.

The "Titan" in our name isn't marketing. It's the standard the brothers inherited. Build it like a Titan. Outlast the next storm. Outlast the next code revision. Outlast the next owner.

That's the operating principle on every job site. Forty-five years of family installs in, we'll still rip out a wall we just sheathed if we don't like how the corner came together. We've never had to, but we would.

What We Stand For

Four words. Spelled out on every job.

We've been asked many times what makes Titan different. The honest answer is the four things we won't compromise on.

Integrity

We do the right thing when no one is watching. Honest pricing. Transparent timelines. Straight talk — even when the answer isn't what you wanted to hear.

Innovation

We use technology where it actually helps — real-time project dashboards, satellite roof measurements, in-house permit portals — not for show, but because it makes the build smoother for you.

Accountability

Every outcome is ours to own. If something isn't right, we make it right — no excuses, no runaround, no "the manufacturer's fault."

Excellence

Good enough isn't good enough. Every installation, every interaction, every detail meets our standard — or it doesn't leave our hands.

The Team

The people who'll be on your project.

We're a family company. Half the people on the leadership team share a last name. The other half feel like they do.

Drives the financial strategy and technology transformation that sets Titan apart. From real-time project dashboards to AI-powered scheduling, Craig is why a team that's been installing since 1981 operates like a 2026 software company.

The Operation

1981 craftsmanship. A 2026 operation.

Most contractors run on phone calls, paper notebooks, and "I'll get back to you on that." We don't — and the difference shows up in your project.

01

Real-time project dashboard

You see every milestone, every photo, every payment, every inspection. No more "any update?" texts to a project manager who's on a roof.

02

40% faster permits

An in-house permit team filing directly with municipal portals — not subbed out to a permit expediter. Our average permit time is 40% under the South Florida industry average.

03

Satellite roof measurement

Sub-meter roof measurements from satellite imagery before our team ever climbs a ladder. Faster estimates, more accurate quotes, less guessing.

04

AI-assisted scheduling

Crew availability, material lead times, weather forecasts, inspection slots — all routed through scheduling software that finds the fastest correct path to your finish line.

Credentials

Verifiable credentials.

The list is short and verifiable. Each one is held by Titan Builders LLC directly — not subcontracted or borrowed.

Community

We live here too.

Three generations in the trade, two offices in South Florida (Fort Lauderdale and Naranja), and a payroll where most of our team grew up within an hour of where they work.

We don't operate out of an out-of-state call center. We don't subcontract to crews you'll never meet again. When you call Titan, you're calling a company that lives where you live — and whose reputation depends on the same neighbors, HOAs, building inspectors, and insurance adjusters you deal with.

Most of our work comes from referrals and repeat customers. That's not an accident. It's the only way a crew keeps working in this market for 40+ years.

We've done quiet work supporting local nonprofits, schools, and a few specific community projects we won't list because the people involved would hate the publicity. We mention this only because if you're choosing between contractors, the family that's been installing in your community for four decades has a different incentive than the one that showed up last quarter.
