What are my rights in this roofing situation?

FloridaConstruction ContractLawsuit

Had a roofing company put a flat roof on in Dec. 2015. Had damage issues with them at the time and they were difficult to work with. One thing I wanted to be sure of was that the ponding would not continue, they assured me that it would be a tapered roof. Several months ago an inspector found a number of problems with the roof that warranty should cover. They came out very briefly and just did a perfunctory job, but just two months later there is still an area in the same region where the material can be lifted by hand. So they didn't repair this as they said they did. A lot of water came into this roof section during the hurricane. They are wanting $2,000 to fix this spot and say they aren't responsible because in 2018 there was a puncture repair done there that they did for free at my insistence, saying that a puncture from a limb wasn't covered. The leak ruined a section of hardwood flooring in my house as well as came into a ceiling fan light fixture. The warranty runs out in a couple of weeks. I am not happy with the condition of the roof both from the ponding standpoint and the places where the roof is coming apart. I have photos from the needed repair areas done earlier this year, emails to them, and pictures of the problem area now.
