Roofing in Fort Lauderdale - Written Price, Workmanship Warranty

Trusted Roofing for Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Roofing in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $8,000-$20,000 for replacement on asphalt shingle systems, while repairs start around $400 and rarely exceed $1,800 for standard residential jobs. We’re Rowan Construction Group, and since 2007 we’ve delivered more than 4,000 projects across seven trades, every one with a written price before work started and a documented photo record when the crew left. In Fort Lauderdale, we see the specific damage patterns this coastal climate produces: salt air corrosion on fasteners, UV degradation of underlayment, and the accelerated wear that comes with afternoon thunderstorms hitting a roof already baking at 90 degrees.

What Our Roofing Service Includes

Roof Repair

Roof repair addresses isolated damage without replacing the full system. In Fort Lauderdale, we most often repair wind-lifted shingles from summer storms, deteriorated pipe boot flashings, and small areas of water intrusion around the chimney or vents. Our crew photographs the damage before touching anything, then delivers a written scope and flat price - under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, no work starts until you’ve seen the number.

Roof Replacement & Installation

Full replacement becomes necessary when the substrate is compromised, shingles are past their rated lifespan, or repairs would exceed half the cost of a new roof. We strip to the deck, inspect for rot or delamination, install synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water shield at valleys and penetrations, then finish with your chosen material. Every replacement includes a written warranty, a signed change order if we find hidden deck damage, and the full photo record.

Metal Roofing

Metal roofing in Fort Lauderdale resists salt corrosion and reflects solar heat, which matters when your attic hits 140 degrees in August. We install standing seam systems with concealed fasteners that eliminate the screw penetrations where salt air starts rust, and we source from manufacturers rated for Miami-Dade’s HVHZ wind standards. A typical metal roof installation runs $15,000-$40,000 depending on gauge, finish, and whether we’re retrofitting over existing shingles or stripping clean.

Tile Roofing

Barrel tile and flat concrete tile are common in Fort Lauderdale’s Spanish and Mediterranean architecture, but the underlayment beneath them - not the tile itself - is what actually keeps water out. We replace tile roofs by removing and sorting salvageable tiles, installing new ASTM-rated underlayment, then resetting with proper weep screed drainage at the eaves. Tile roof repair, typically $600-$2,500, addresses cracked tiles, slipped courses, or failed mortar bedding without disturbing the full system.

Specialty Roofing

Pompano Beach Roofing and our Fort Lauderdale specialty work covers flat or low-slope applications: modified bitumen, TPO single-ply, and built-up systems on contemporary homes, additions, or commercial-residential mixed properties in neighborhoods like Victoria Park and Rio Vista. We specify tapered insulation to eliminate ponding water, which is the primary failure mode in flat roofs during Fort Lauderdale’s heavy rain events. Every specialty system is quoted with the manufacturer’s approved attachment method - mechanically fastened, fully adhered, or ballasted - never a generic “rubber roof” description.

Gutters & Accessories

Gutters are part of the roof system, not an afterthought. In Fort Lauderdale, we install seamless aluminum gutters with hidden hangers rated for hurricane wind loads, plus downspout extensions that direct water away from the foundation on our sandy, fast-draining soils. We also fabricate custom scupper boxes and collector heads for tile roofs where standard gutters won’t fit the profile. Accessories are quoted as line items in your written scope, not surprise add-ons.

Brands We Service for Roofing

We specify GAF and Owens Corning asphalt shingles for most Fort Lauderdale replacements, and we’ve installed enough of their systems to know which granule colors hold up best against UV exposure in South Florida. For metal roofing, we work with manufacturers whose finishes carry Kynar 500 or Hylar 5000 coatings - the fluoropolymer resins that resist chalking and fading in salt air. Our quotes name the brand, the product line, and the warranty tier, so you’re comparing actual specifications, not “architectural shingle” generics.

Whether your current roof is GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, a standing seam system from a regional fabricator, or any other make, we can assess it, repair it, or replace it with documentation at every step. Our material sourcing across fifty-plus vetted brands means the written quote contains honest numbers, not inflated ones padded for uncertainty.

Signs You Need Roofing Right Now

• Granules collecting in gutters or at downspout exits. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age; heavy accumulation means the UV-protective layer is thinning. In Fort Lauderdale’s intense sun, this accelerates once it starts, and the next storm can strip bare patches that lead to leaks within a single rainy season.
• Shingles that are curling, cupping, or missing entirely. Wind uplift from summer thunderstorms tears shingles at the sealant strip, and curled edges can’t reseal. We see this most in neighborhoods east of Federal Highway where salt air has already weakened the asphalt, and we document each damaged area with dated photos before recommending repair or replacement.
• Water stains on ceiling drywall, especially after afternoon storms. A stain that appears during heavy rain but dries between events usually means a pinpoint leak at a fastener or flashing, not widespread failure. The leak path can run several feet from the actual roof penetration, so our inspection includes attic tracing to find the source, not just the symptom.
• Sagging areas at the ridgeline or between trusses. This indicates structural compromise - saturated decking, failing rafters, or in older Fort Lauderdale homes, termite damage that has weakened the supporting members. This is not a repair situation; it requires immediate professional assessment because the roof deck could fail under load.
• Your neighbors are replacing their roofs. In planned communities like Coral Ridge or Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, homes were often built in the same period with the same materials. If multiple houses on your street are showing age-related failure, your roof is likely at the end of its rated lifespan regardless of surface appearance.

Our Roofing Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Schedule your free estimate. Call (754) 254-7676 or request through our site. A live person answers 24/7, and we’ll confirm a two-hour arrival window by text - no “sometime Tuesday” vagueness. We ask about your roof’s age, any known leaks, and whether you’ve received other estimates so we can tailor the inspection.
2. 2
   On-site inspection with documented photo record. Our technician walks the roof with a harness and fall protection - not a ladder lean and binocular guess. We photograph shingle condition, flashing details, vent penetrations, and attic ventilation. You receive these images whether or not you hire us; they’re your documentation for insurance or resale.
3. 3
   Written quote delivered before any work starts. Under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, the price is flat, line-itemed, and signed before tools come out. The quote specifies material brands, warranty terms, permit responsibility, and projected timeline. If you’ve received another written estimate, we’ll review it line by line at no charge.
4. 4
   Permits pulled, materials staged, crew verified. We handle Fort Lauderdale building permits and HOA notifications where required. Your crew arrives in uniform, background-checked, with the photo record protocol already active. No change to the scope proceeds without a signed change order - this discipline is why our projects finish within a few percent of the agreed price.
5. 5
   Completion walkthrough with final documentation. We review the finished roof with you, confirm gutter flow and drainage, and deliver the final photo set plus warranty registration. The 365-Day Done Right Promise begins at this moment: if it’s not done right, we make it right, backed by The Haven Standard, not a handshake.
