Common roof repairs we see in Fort Lauderdale
Flat Roof Membrane Leaks
Flat and low-slope roofs covered in TPO, PVC, or built-up membrane are common across Fort Lauderdale, and they leak where seams separate or ponding water breaks the membrane down over time. We cut out the damaged section, replace the membrane layer, and reseal the seams before checking the drains for proper flow.
Tile Roof Cracks and Slipped Tiles
Clay and concrete tile roofs crack under foot traffic or storm debris, and slipped tiles leave the underlayment exposed to rain. We replace the cracked or missing tiles, re-secure the field around them, and check the underlayment for water intrusion before closing the roof back up.
Shingle Wind Damage
Architectural and impact-resistant shingles still lift or tear in high wind, exposing nail heads and seams along ridge lines to water. Our crews swap out the torn shingles, run new sealant along exposed nail lines, and inspect the plywood decking underneath for soft spots before the new shingles go down.
Repair or Replace?
Florida's 25% roof replacement rule works off the code era a roof was built to, not the age of the house itself: if your roof was permitted under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, only the repaired section has to meet current wind-uplift standards. Older roofs built before that code can trip the same 25% threshold and end up needing a full tear-off instead of a patch. Fort Lauderdale's housing stock spans postwar construction through 2000s builds, so we check your permit history before quoting a repair.

How fast can you fix a roof leak?
The timeline depends on what's causing the leak and whether decking, flashing, or membrane needs replacing, not a fixed number of days. Our crew starts with a free inspection to pin down the cause, then lays out the repair steps and cost before touching the roof. We don't quote blind over the phone.
Is the roof inspection free in Fort Lauderdale?
Yes, the inspection is free with no diagnostic fee. We inspect the roof, find the cause of the leak, and hand you a written estimate with photos before any work starts. You get a straight answer on what's wrong and what it costs to fix.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
It comes down to how much area is damaged and how much life is left in the roofing material itself, not the age of the house. Fort Lauderdale homes use a mix of flat membrane, tile, and shingle roofing, and each one wears out differently. Our free inspection looks at the actual roof, and we'll tell you straight whether a repair holds up or a replacement makes more sense.
Will my insurance drop me if my roof is old?
Not on age alone. Florida law (s. 627.7011, F.S.) bars an insurer from declining or non-renewing a policy solely because the roof is under 15 years old. For roofs 15 or older, insurers must allow an inspection, and if it shows at least 5 years of life left, they can't deny coverage on age alone. We provide that inspection.
What usually causes a roof leak in Fort Lauderdale?
Most leaks start where the roof is broken up: flashing around vents and walls, valleys, and cracked or slipped tiles. On tile and flat roofs, the underlayment or membrane seams often wear out before the surface does. Fort Lauderdale's coastal storms push wind-driven rain into those weak spots, which is why many leaks show up right after a storm.
