AfterConstruction in Sunrise, FL
Roofing, windows, fences, and hardscaping in Sunrise run into conditions you won’t find in neighboring Plantation or Weston: a 1970s-era building stock that predates Hurricane Andrew code reforms, a shallow western water table that turns footing work into dewatering operations, and one of Broward County’s densest concentrations of aging condominiums now facing mandatory structural inspections. We quote every job with a flat written price before any work starts - call (754) 254-7676 for an estimate.
Why Sunrise Homes Are Different
Sunrise was built out largely between the mid-1960s and early 1990s, and the vast majority of its housing predates Florida’s 1994 building code overhaul. Original roof decking attachment, window fasteners, and structural connections frequently fail current wind-mitigation standards, which means replacement work here is rarely a simple swap - it’s often a code-upgrade job.
The city’s western boundary presses against Broward County’s Water Conservation Areas, and groundwater can sit just 2-3 feet below grade in neighborhoods like those near Sunrise Lakes. That shallow water table turns routine fence post holes, driveway subgrade prep, and addition footings into dewatering operations with pumps running. Meanwhile, the 60-inch annual rainfall concentrated in a June-through-October wet season accelerates stucco spalling and flat-roof membrane failure on the 1970s-80s stock at a rate that keeps exterior-envelope contractors busy year-round.
Sunrise Lakes and similar 55+ condo complexes represent a unique local pressure point. Decades of HOA boards voting to waive reserve contributions have left buildings with spalled concrete balconies and failing waterproofing membranes now facing emergency special assessments - and Florida’s post-Surfside SIRS law has removed the option to waive reserves going forward. Contractors here are navigating a concentrated, mandated wave of structural remediation that simply doesn’t exist in younger suburbs.
Our Main Sunrise Services
While this page covers roofing, windows and doors, fencing, and hardscaping, Sunrise homeowners most often start with interior renovations or room additions. Here’s what those projects involve locally.
Kitchen Remodeling in Sunrise
Kitchen remodels in Sunrise frequently open up 1970s-80s galley layouts in the city’s single-family CBS homes, where load-bearing walls need careful analysis before removal. We encounter original aluminum wiring in pre-1980 kitchens that requires dedicated circuits for modern appliance loads, and the shallow water table can complicate any slab plumbing reroutes. Every quote includes a written price before work starts and a documented photo record at each visit. Kitchen Remodeling in Sunrise
Bathroom Remodeling in Sunrise
Bathroom work in Sunrise’s older stock means dealing with cast-iron drain lines, original fiberglass surrounds, and ventilation that rarely meets current moisture-control standards. In condo buildings like Sunrise Lakes, we coordinate with association engineers on wet-area waterproofing and stack-line access, since membrane failures in one unit often signal systemic issues above and below. The written scope specifies who handles what - our crew or the association’s - before demolition begins. Bathroom Remodeling in Sunrise
Home Additions & ADU in Sunrise
Additions and ADUs in Sunrise face the shallow western water table head-on, with footing depth and drainage design critical to passing inspection. Zoning here allows detached accessory dwelling units on many single-family lots, but setback requirements and the city’s stormwater management rules mean the site plan needs review before we quote. We deliver a flat written price that includes permit costs and dewatering contingencies, not a low number that balloons once the pumps start running. Home Additions & ADU in Sunrise

AfterRoofing in Sunrise
Roofing in Sunrise means working on a building stock where original decking was nailed, not screwed, to trusses with spacing that doesn’t meet post-Andrew uplift standards. The 60-inch annual rainfall and intense wet-season convection accelerate membrane failure on the flat and low-slope roofs common to 1970s-80s construction, while the condo concentration in northwest Sunrise has created a backlog of mandated balcony and roof-deck remediation under Florida’s new SIRS requirements. We source GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed materials, and every Roofing quote includes a written price, photo documentation, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise backed by The Haven Standard.
Roof Repair
Signs you need it
Water stains on ceiling drywall, granules collecting in gutters, or lifted shingle tabs after a summer storm indicate the membrane or fastening system has compromised.
What it costs in Sunrise
Roof repair in Sunrise typically runs $400-$1,800 depending on whether we’re replacing a few shingles, resealing penetrations, or addressing decking attachment issues that require partial re-fastening to meet current code.
How we do it
We photograph the damage from the ridge, remove the affected area to inspect decking condition, replace compromised substrate, install matching materials, and document the repair with dated photos before we leave.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Signs you need it
Multiple leak points, visible sagging between trusses, or shingles past their rated lifespan with brittle, cracking tabs mean the system has reached end of useful life.
What it costs in Sunrise
Roof replacement in Sunrise typically costs $8,000-$20,000 for standard asphalt shingle on a single-family home, with code-upgrade decking re-nailing and secondary water barrier included in the written scope.
How we do it
We strip to decking, assess and replace compromised substrate, install ice-and-water shield at valleys and penetrations, fasten new shingles to 1994-plus uplift standards, and pass municipal inspection before final payment.
What Roofing Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Roof Repair | $400-$1,800 |
| Roof Replacement | $8,000-$20,000 |
| Metal Roof Installation | $15,000-$40,000 |
How long does a roof replacement take in Sunrise?
Most single-family roof replacements in Sunrise take 2-4 days, with an additional day for inspection scheduling. Condo association work in Sunrise Lakes and similar complexes may extend to 1-2 weeks due to access coordination and phased occupancy requirements. Call (754) 254-7676 for a written timeline with your estimate.
Will my roof replacement need to meet current wind codes?
Yes - Sunrise enforces Florida’s current wind-mitigation standards for full replacements, which typically means 8d ring-shank nails at 6-inch spacing on decking and secondary water barrier at eaves. We include these code upgrades in every written quote, not as surprise add-ons. Call (754) 254-7676 for specifics on your roof type.
Windows & Doors in Sunrise
Window and door replacement in Sunrise confronts original single-pane aluminum units with failed seals, corroded fasteners, and framing that doesn’t meet current wind-borne debris or pressure requirements. The 1970s-80s installation methods - often without proper flashing or structural attachment - mean replacement frequently requires reframing and water-management detailing that goes beyond a simple insert. We install impact-rated and energy-efficient products from vetted brands, and every Windows & Doors job starts with a written flat price.
Window Replacement
Signs you need it
Fogged insulated glass, operable sashes that won’t close flush, or visible daylight around the frame perimeter indicate seal failure, sash warp, or rough-opening deterioration.
What it costs in Sunrise
Window replacement in Sunrise typically runs $4,500-$15,000 for a whole-house project, with impact-rated units at the higher end due to laminated glass and reinforced frame requirements.
How we do it
We remove the existing unit to inspect the rough opening for rot or stucco spall, install new construction windows with integrated flanges tied to the water barrier, foam-seal the perimeter, and finish with matching exterior trim.
Impact Windows & Doors
Signs you need it
Insurance wind-mitigation credits you’re not receiving, visible corrosion on existing aluminum frames, or post-storm temporary panel installation fatigue suggest it’s time for permanent impact-rated protection.
What it costs in Sunrise
Impact window installation in Sunrise typically costs $8,000-$25,000 for a complete single-family home, varying with opening count, floor height, and whether we encounter the non-flashed installations common to 1970s construction.
How we do it
We measure each opening for DP rating compliance, order laminated-glass units with reinforced frames, remove existing windows to the rough opening, install with proper sill pan and head flashing integration, and certify for wind-mitigation inspection.
What Windows & Doors Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Window Replacement | $4,500-$15,000 |
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000-$25,000 |
Do I need impact windows or just shutters for code compliance?
Impact windows satisfy Florida code without additional shutters and qualify for maximum insurance wind-mitigation credits; shutters alone protect the opening but don’t earn the same premium reduction. Many Sunrise homeowners choose impact windows for the permanent convenience and year-round noise reduction. Call (754) 254-7676 for a written comparison.
Will stucco repair be included in my window replacement?
Our written scope includes stucco cutback and repair around the opening perimeter, since 1970s-80s Sunrise installations rarely had proper flanges and we must integrate new windows with the water barrier. We photograph the existing condition before we start so there’s no dispute about what was pre-existing damage versus installation-related. Call (754) 254-7676 for a written scope.
Fence Installation in Sunrise
Fence installation in Sunrise runs into the shallow western water table that keeps post holes wet and accelerates wood rot at the ground line, plus HOA restrictions in communities like Sunrise Lakes that specify materials, heights, and setback lines. The 1970s-80s single-family homes often lack perimeter drainage swales, meaning fence footings sit in seasonal saturation that compromises untreated lumber within seasons. We quote vinyl and aluminum options with written prices that include post-depth specifications for your soil conditions, and every Fence Installation includes the documented photo record.
Vinyl Fence
Signs you need it
HOA requirements restricting wood, repeated replacement of rotted pickets at the ground line, or desire for a zero-maintenance perimeter with consistent color through South Florida UV exposure.
What it costs in Sunrise
Vinyl fence installation in Sunrise typically runs $3,500-$9,000 depending on linear footage, panel height, and whether we encounter the rocky caprock or saturated soils common to western neighborhoods that require longer posts or concrete footings.
How we do it
We locate utilities, set posts in concrete to 24-inch minimum depth or deeper if the water table requires it, hang reinforced vinyl panels with aluminum inserts in the rails, and gate with stainless steel hardware rated for coastal humidity.
Aluminum Fence
Signs you need it
Pool code compliance requiring 48-inch minimum height with no climbable horizontal members, or preference for ornamental visibility with zero maintenance in a humid, salt-air environment.
What it costs in Sunrise
Aluminum fence installation in Sunrise typically costs $4,000-$10,000, with powder-coated residential grade at the lower end and heavier commercial profiles or custom gates at the higher end.
How we do it
We lay out the run with post spacing engineered for panel span, core-drill and set posts in concrete, hang welded aluminum panels with concealed fasteners, and install self-closing, self-latching gates to current pool barrier code.
What Fence Installation Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Vinyl Fence Installation | $3,500-$9,000 |
| Aluminum Fence Installation | $4,000-$10,000 |
Does Sunrise require a permit for fence installation?
Yes - the City of Sunrise requires a fence permit with a site plan showing property lines, setbacks, and gate locations; HOA approval is separate and typically required before permit submission in communities like Sunrise Lakes. We handle permit drawings and submission as part of our written scope. Call (754) 254-7676 to confirm requirements for your specific property.
How do you handle the wet ground in western Sunrise neighborhoods?
We specify concrete footings extending above grade and use pressure-treated or vinyl posts that don’t wick moisture; in persistently saturated conditions, we may recommend aluminum or composite posts with a deeper embedment engineered for reduced bearing capacity. The written quote specifies the post system for your soil conditions, not a generic specification. Call (754) 254-7676 for a site-specific assessment.
Driveway & Pavers in Sunrise
Driveway and paver work in Sunrise confronts the same shallow water table that saturates subgrades and accelerates settlement, plus original concrete from the 1970s-80s that was rarely poured with proper base preparation or control joint spacing. The city’s 60-inch annual rainfall, concentrated in summer thunderstorms, undermines asphalt and concrete that lack adequate drainage pitch and permeable base layers. We source Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers and quote every Driveway & Pavers job with a flat written price that includes subgrade assessment and dewatering contingencies where needed.
Paver Driveways
Signs you need it
Cracked or settled concrete with reverse pitch toward the garage, standing water after rain, or desire for a permeable surface that reduces runoff in a city with strict stormwater management rules.
What it costs in Sunrise
Paver driveway installation in Sunrise typically runs $7,000-$18,000 depending on square footage, pattern complexity, and whether we must dewater and recompact the subgrade in western neighborhoods with high groundwater.
How we do it
We excavate to 8-10 inches, install geotextile and compacted aggregate base in lifts, set edge restraints on concrete footings, lay pavers in the specified pattern with 1/8-inch joint spacing, sweep in polymeric sand, and compact with a plate vibrator.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Signs you need it
Spalled surface with exposed aggregate, widespread cracking following the original control joint pattern, or settlement creating trip hazards at the garage transition or sidewalk intersection.
What it costs in Sunrise
Concrete driveway installation in Sunrise typically costs $4,500-$12,000 for standard 4-inch residential pour with fiber mesh and control joints at proper spacing; removal of failed existing concrete adds $2-4 per square foot.
How we do it
We remove existing material, assess and recompact the subgrade with proper pitch for drainage, form with expansion material at structures, pour with control joints at 1.5 times the slab depth in feet, finish with broom or specified texture, and cure for seven days minimum.
What Driveway & Pavers Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Paver Driveway Installation | $7,000-$18,000 |
| Concrete Driveway Installation | $4,500-$12,000 |
| Asphalt Driveway Paving | $3,500-$9,000 |
Can pavers handle the heavy rain in Sunrise’s wet season?
Permeable paver systems with open-graded base actually manage heavy rainfall better than solid concrete, since water infiltrates between pavers and stores in the aggregate base rather than running off. We design base depth for local rainfall intensity and soil percolation rates, which in western Sunrise may mean deeper stone and underdrain installation. Call (754) 254-7676 for a drainage assessment.
Will my driveway replacement need a permit?
Sunrise requires a permit for driveway replacement if you’re changing the footprint, material, or drainage pattern; simple resurfacing of the same area with the same material may not. We verify permit requirements during the initial site visit and include permit costs in the written quote when required. Call (754) 254-7676 to schedule.

FAQs About Construction in Sunrise
We typically schedule site visits within 24-48 hours for single-family homes in Sunrise, and 48-72 hours for condo association work where we may need to coordinate with property management or association engineers. Every estimate is delivered as a flat written price with scope, timeline, and warranty documented - never a verbal range.
We pull all required municipal permits for the work we perform and include permit costs in the written quote; HOA approval is the homeowner’s responsibility to initiate, though we provide the technical documentation and drawings most Sunrise Lakes and similar associations require. We do not start work until both permits and HOA approvals are in hand.
Sunrise’s combination of pre-1994 housing stock, shallow western water table, and dense concentration of aging condominiums under new mandatory inspection laws creates a unique project environment. The SIRS-driven structural remediation in northwest Sunrise, the dewatering requirements for western additions and hardscaping, and the code-upgrade burden on roof and window replacements are all more pronounced here than in neighboring Plantation or Weston.
