Roof systems we install
Four materials. Honest specs.
We install all four. We won’t recommend tile when shingle is right — or push metal when your HOA only approves architectural shingle.
Concrete & Clay Tile
The South Florida heritage roof — Spanish barrel, flat profile, and S-tile in 30+ colors. Best resale value in the state. Concrete is 60% the cost of clay with similar lifespan; Spanish-imported clay (Verea, Tejas Borja) is the spec when authentic Mediterranean look matters.

Materials & trade partners
The Florida-made supply chain
Two partners we lean on for every job: Polyglass for the underlayment beneath the roof, Perkins Roofing for the rare jobs we hand off when scope or geography demands it.
Preferred Underlayment Deerfield Beach, FL
Polyglass USA
Superior technology, made for Florida
Polyglass invented the ADESO® dual-compound self-adhered membrane — APP modification on the granule side, SBS modification on the adhesive side. It's the underlayment that survives 50-year tile installs in HVHZ when felt paper would fail in five.

In every quote
9 things we always include
Cheap quotes leave these off the line item. We don’t — they’re what makes a roof actually last.
Full tear-off
Never overlay. Illegal in most municipalities. Voids manufacturer warranty. We always go down to deck.
Deck inspection + repair
Plywood and OSB on the truck. 5-15% of roofs need partial decking — we fix what we find without delays.
Polyglass self-adhered underlayment
Per FBC R905.1.2 — Polystick® TU MAX, MTS Plus, and IR-Xe. ADESO® dual-compound tech is the new HVHZ gold standard for tile and shingle.
New drip edge + flashing
Code-required. Prevents 80% of edge leaks. Step flashing at all walls, counter-flashing at all chimneys.
Attic ventilation balance
Intake (soffit) + exhaust (ridge / off-ridge) sized to roof area. Without balance, the new roof bakes from underneath.
Hurricane strap inspection
FBC requires verifying truss-to-wall connectors during tear-off. Documented for your Wind Mitigation Form.
Permit + city inspection
We pull, we file, we coordinate. Permit fee in your quote. You never call your municipality.
Daily cleanup + magnet sweep
For nails, shingle granules, debris. Yard cleaner than we found it, every day.
Wind Mitigation Form
OIR-B1-1802 filled out and handed to you for insurance premium credit. Often $400-$2,500/year savings.
Florida-specific code
FBC 2023 + HVHZ — how we install
South Florida has the strictest roofing code in the country. Here’s the spec we install to on every job.
R905.1.2
Self-adhered underlayment
Required on all re-roofs in HVHZ zones (Broward + Miami-Dade) and recommended statewide. Replaces traditional felt paper. Self-seals around fastener penetrations.
R908.5
Hurricane strap inspection
During every tear-off, the inspector must verify truss-to-wall connectors. Failed straps must be reinforced. Documented on your Wind Mitigation Form.
R903.4.1
Drip edge
New drip edge required at all eaves and rakes. Prevents the most common edge leak — water wicking under shingles where they meet the gutter.
627.7011
The 25% rule
Florida Statute (effective 2022): roofs with less than 25% storm damage are repaired, not replaced. Limits insurance-paid replacements but reflects engineering reality.
How it works
From inspection to installed in 4–6 weeks
- 01
Free 48-hour inspection
A licensed roofer climbs your roof, photographs every issue, and produces a written damage report — typically within 48 hours of your call.
- 02
Material consultation + written quote
We walk through tile / shingle / metal / flat options for your specific home, recommend the best fit, and deliver a fixed-price written quote within 24 hours of inspection.
- 03
Permit + custom material order
We file the FBC permit at your municipality and order materials. Permit takes 3-7 business days; material lead time is 1-4 weeks depending on type.
- 04
Tear-off + install
Full tear-off (never overlay), deck inspection + repair, self-adhered underlayment per FBC R905.1.2, drip edge, flashing, and the new roof system. 2-5 days on-site.
- 05
Inspection, cleanup + warranty
We coordinate the final municipal inspection, magnet-sweep your yard for nails, and hand you the warranty packet plus your Wind Mitigation report.
Storm damage?
We handle insurance claims — honestly.
Florida’s 2022 Statute 627.7011 changed the rules: roofs with under 25% damage are repaired, not replaced. Roofs older than 25 years are often denied. We’ll inspect, document, and meet your adjuster on-site — but we’ll tell you upfront if a claim isn’t going to fly. No insurance theater.

Roofing FAQ
How long does a roof last in South Florida?
Florida is the harshest climate for roofing in the country — UV cuts shingle life ~30% vs the north, salt air corrodes unprotected metal, and hurricanes test every fastener. Typical lifespans: asphalt shingle 18-25 years, concrete or clay tile 40-50 years, standing-seam metal 40-70 years, flat TPO/PVC 20-25 years.
Which roof type should I choose?
Three factors: (1) your home's architectural style — tile fits Mediterranean/Spanish, metal fits modern, shingle fits any. (2) How long you'll stay — tile and metal pay back over 20+ years; shingle is best for shorter holds. (3) Budget — shingle is cheapest upfront, metal has best lifecycle cost, tile has best resale. We give you our honest recommendation at the free inspection — no pushing the highest-margin product.
What does FBC 2023 require?
The 2023 Florida Building Code (8th edition) is the current code in effect. Key requirements for re-roofs: sealed roof deck (taped seams), self-adhered underlayment per R905.1.2 (not just felt), code-compliant drip edge installation, hurricane strap inspection during tear-off, and proper attic ventilation. In Broward and Miami-Dade (HVHZ zones), every product must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA).
What is HVHZ and does my home need HVHZ-rated materials?
High Velocity Hurricane Zone — covers all of Broward and Miami-Dade Counties. HVHZ requires more stringent product testing (ASTM E1996 large-missile impact, TAS 100/124/125 wind) than the rest of Florida. If your home is in HVHZ, every material we install carries a Miami-Dade NOA. Palm Beach County is not HVHZ, but most of our HVHZ-rated products are also approved for Palm Beach.
How long does roof installation take?
Asphalt shingle: 2-3 days for a typical 2,000 sq ft home. Concrete/clay tile: 5-8 days due to weight and detail work. Standing-seam metal: 3-5 days. Flat TPO/PVC: 1-3 days. We protect floors and landscaping, work in dry weather, and tarp end-of-day if storms threaten.
How much will my roof actually cost?
Asphalt shingle on a 2,000 sq ft home: $12,000-$18,000. Concrete tile: $24,000-$40,000. Standing-seam metal: $20,000-$32,000. Flat TPO/PVC: $8-$14 per sq ft. Pricing scales with roof pitch, complexity (chimneys, dormers, valleys), and tear-off difficulty. 5-15% of roofs need partial deck replacement at $80-$150 per sheet of plywood.
What warranty do I get?
Two warranties on every install: (1) Our 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation defects — fully transferable if you sell. (2) The manufacturer's product warranty on materials — 25 years for shingle, 30-50 years for tile, 30-50 years for metal, 20 years for flat. We're factory-certified for the major brands so you get their longest available coverage.
Are you licensed and insured?
