Fort Lauderdale

Older, denser and closer to the water

The Census Bureau's 2020 to 2024 estimates put Fort Lauderdale at about 186,000 residents and a median housing unit built in 1973. Sixty-five percent of units predate 1980 and 55 percent are in buildings of three or more units, but the city also holds neighborhoods of detached homes such as Victoria Park, Rio Vista and Coral Ridge.

Closer to the Intracoastal Waterway and the canals, roofs sit in more humid and salty air than the inland suburbs. Fasteners, flashings and metal edges corrode sooner, and roof assemblies that tolerate that environment last longer. Older homes also often have layered roofs that deserve a careful look at tear-off.

Local advantage

Why Fort Lauderdale homeowners call us

Corrosion-aware details

Near the water we favor fasteners, edge metal and coatings chosen for salt air, and we avoid mixing dissimilar metals.

Older homes, careful tear-off

Vintage homes may hide old layers and unusual framing, so we inspect the deck thoroughly before pricing the finish.

Permits and approvals

Roofing work is permitted through the city using the Broward HVHZ application and approvals for each product.

Roofing near the Intracoastal and the canals

The farther east you go, the more the roof competes with salt and moisture, and the less forgiving cheap hardware becomes.

  • Rusting fasteners and flashing on older metal.
  • Algae and mildew on shaded, humid slopes.
  • Tile that has loosened where the mortar or foam has aged.
  • Flat sections on additions, garages and condos.
  • Wind-driven rain testing walls, windows and penetrations.

Questions

Fort Lauderdale roofing questions, answered

Do you work on waterfront homes in Fort Lauderdale?

Yes, including canal-side and Intracoastal properties. We choose materials and hardware suited to the humid, salty setting and plan staging around docks, narrow lots and limited access.

Do you roof condos and commercial buildings in the city?

We handle low-slope and membrane roofs on condo and commercial buildings, with the written scope, approvals and phased schedule those jobs require. Condo boards usually want insurance certificates and a phased calendar, and we supply both with the scope.

Which Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods do you serve?

We serve the city, including Victoria Park, Rio Vista, Las Olas Isles, Coral Ridge, Imperial Point and Lauderdale Isles. Call with an address if you are unsure.

Are metal roofs a good choice near the water?

They can be, when the metal, the coating and the fasteners are matched to the environment and installed to an approved system. We discuss options and limits rather than promising one material is best.
