Roof Replacement in Fort Lauderdale - Free Roof Inspection, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement Across Fort Lauderdale

A full roof replacement in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $11,500 to $38,000 for a standard single-family home, depending on square footage, material grade, and decking condition. Most jobs take 3 to 7 working days once permits clear. If you’re weighing whether to repair or replace, the honest answer for most Fort Lauderdale homes is that a roof past 18 to 20 years old needs a full tear-off, not another patch.

Why Crestview Roofing Is Fort Lauderdale’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company

Roofers in Fort Lauderdale are everywhere. Roofers who give you a written line-item price before demolition, photo documentation of the decking before shingles go down, and a live arrival time you can track are rare. That’s the standard Crestview Roofing operates under: The Relay Visibility Guarantee, which covers every job we run in Fort Lauderdale. You see the scope, the square count, the material grade, and the labor line before you sign anything.

Dylan Pace leads our crews, and he’s built the company around one rule: the number on the written quote is the number on the invoice. No change orders that appear after tear-off unless something structural is found, and if it is, you get photos and a written explanation before another dollar is spent. Every repair we touch is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, in writing, included at no extra charge. If it fails within a year, we return and fix it free.

We answer the phone with a live person 24/7. You’ll never chase a voicemail box or wait until Monday when a Fort Lauderdale storm has exposed your decking.

Reroofing in Fort Lauderdale

Reroofing in Fort Lauderdale means a full tear-off, not a shingle-over. Florida Building Code in Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requires the roof covering to be removed down to the decking in almost every replacement scenario, because the underlayment and fastening pattern have to be inspected and brought to current wind standards. A reroof here for a typical 1,800 to 2,400 square foot home runs $13,000 to $26,000 with architectural shingles, and $22,000 to $38,000 if you’re moving into standing seam metal or tile. The tear-off usually takes one day; the full reroof takes three to five working days after that.

What We Check During Tear-Off

Once shingles come off, we inspect every square foot of decking for rot, delamination, and deflection. In Fort Lauderdale’s subtropical moisture, this is where surprises live. If boards need replacing, you’ll get photos and a written addendum before we proceed. That’s the visibility part of the Relay Standard.

When a Reroof Becomes Urgent

If you see ceiling stains in an upstairs bedroom after a heavy thunderstorm, or granules collecting in your gutters after every rain, don’t wait. A 20-year-old Fort Lauderdale roof with failed valleys and brittle underlayment is one hurricane season away from a full interior claim. Calling (325) 246-5075 for a free estimate now costs nothing; waiting can cost the drywall, insulation, and everything underneath.

Flat Roof Replacement in Fort Lauderdale

Flat Roof Replacement in Fort Lauderdale has its own code and cost picture. Mid-century homes in Coral Ridge, Rio Vista, and Sailboat Bend often have flat or low-slope sections, and those sections fail differently than pitched shingle roofs. Instead of wind lifting shingles, you get ponding water, membrane splits at seams, and rusted parapet flashing. A flat roof replacement on a typical Fort Lauderdale ranch or mid-century home runs $9,000 to $18,000 for a single-ply membrane system like TPO or PVC, and $12,000 to $24,000 if you’re going with a modified bitumen or built-up system with a new insulation layer.

Ponding and Wind Uplift

Flat roofs in Fort Lauderdale don’t shed water the way a pitched roof does. If the slope isn’t dead-level with proper crickets and drains, water sits after every afternoon storm and eventually finds a seam. Florida’s wind code also requires mechanically fastened or fully adhered membranes rated for the coastal wind zone, which is why you can’t just roll out a cheap cap sheet and walk away.

What We Check Before Quoting a Flat Roof

Before we price a flat roof, we check the parapet walls, scupper drains, and roof deck condition. On a 1962 ranch in Coral Ridge, we tore off three layers of old dimensional shingles and a failed built-up flat section in one job. We replaced rotted 1-by-6 decking, laid peel-and-stick underlayment across the full deck, and set new GAF Timberline shingles with a starter strip on the eaves and a ridge vent along the peak. The homeowner had been chasing leaks at the valleys and pipe penetrations for two seasons until the old underlayment finally failed completely.

Trusted Brands We Service in Fort Lauderdale

We install and repair roofs using manufacturer-backed materials from GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning. You’ll get the actual warranty documentation from the manufacturer, not a verbal promise. We keep common shingle colors and flat-roof membrane supplies staged for Fort Lauderdale jobs, which means we’re not waiting on a supplier truck from Miami when your decking is exposed. Whether you’re choosing GAF Timberline architectural shingles or a CertainTeed Landmark line in a color that matches your Coral Ridge or Victoria Park home, we can get it quickly.

Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Fort Lauderdale Homes

• Wind-driven rain at valleys and penetrations. Afternoon thunderstorms hit Fort Lauderdale hard and fast. If the ice and water shield wasn’t installed correctly at valleys, pipe boots, and chimney bases, water gets pushed sideways into the seam and under the shingles.
• Rotting decking from decades of subtropical humidity. Homes built before the 1990s in neighborhoods like Imperial Point and Sailboat Bend often have original 1-by-6 decking that’s spongy or delaminated. New shingles over bad decking voids the wind warranty and gives you a wavy roofline.
• Three-layer tear-offs on mid-century homes. Fort Lauderdale homes from the 1950s and 1960s frequently have two or three layers of old roofing. Each layer hides what’s underneath. A proper tear-off to code means removing every layer, which is why some quotes look high until you see what’s actually on the roof.
• Builder-grade underlayment that’s already failed. Many Fort Lauderdale homes have original 15-pound felt underlayment that’s brittle and torn. When we strip a roof and find this, the fix is full peel-and-stick replacement, not patching. The underlayment is your last line of defense before water hits the decking.
