How Boral Products Fail – and How We Fix Them
Boral roofing in South Florida has a few failure patterns we see again and again. Here’s what actually goes wrong and how we address it on a repair basis, not a rip-and-replace basis.
- Concrete tile surface pitting on Boral’s flat-profile tiles (Boral Country Flat and Boral Milan). Fort Lauderdale’s salt air and summer downpours erode the factory seal on older Boral concrete tiles, leaving the surface rough and moisture-hungry. The tile then cracks from the edges inward. We replace pitted tiles individually, matching the profile and using a HDPE underlayment patch before reseating the tile. Ripping out the whole field is almost never necessary.
- Boral Baltimore profile: nose cracks from foot traffic. The Baltimore profile has a pronounced leading edge. We regularly see hairline cracks where AC technicians, pest-control crews, or prior repair techs stepped on the nose instead of the flat of the tile. A nose crack channels water straight into the underlayment. Our fix: remove the cracked tile, inspect the underlayment beneath, replace if it’s compromised, and seat a matched tile with new field screws. Then we tell you exactly where the last guy walked wrong.
- Boral Pacifica steel panel lap leaks after Florida’s thermal cycling. Steel expands and contracts hard in the Fort Lauderdale heat-to-rain cycle. On Boral’s steel profiles, we see lap seams open up a fraction of an inch at the side laps after a few years of that cycle. Water runs in, under, and down. We resecure the lap, re-tool the fasteners, and seal with a urethane sealant rated for metal-on-metal movement. It’s a two-hour repair that saves a ceiling.
- Flashing failures at Boral clay-tile hips and valleys. The tile itself is usually fine. The metal under it is not. Salt air eats flashings at Boral hip intersections and valleys within eight to twelve years, and water travels along the nail holes. We replace the flashing with 26-gauge or heavier, treat the fasteners, and repoint any mortar cap if needed. The tile gets reused. You keep the look. You lose the leak.
- Underlayment rot under the entire Boral field, especially flat-roof Boral installs on Las Olas homes. We’ve repaired Boral tiles where the tile itself was in great shape but the felt underlayment below had rotted through from old adhesive breakdown. On flat and low-slope Boral runs in Fort Lauderdale, water sits longer, and aging underlayment fails under the tile while the tile looks perfect from the street. We lift sections, replace the underlayment with synthetic ice-and-water-rated material, and reset the tiles. It is more involved, but it saves a full re-roof.
Our Boral Roof Repair Process
Here’s how a Boral repair goes at Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale, from the first call to the clean-up.
- 1
You call, we answer. A live person picks up at (754) 732-9325, day or night. We ask what you’re seeing: staining, missing tile, a wet spot after rain. That gives us a likely scope and a rough price range in the first conversation.
- 2
Greg walks the roof. Greg Holloway, our owner, or one of our senior techs physically walks the Boral installation. We don’t price roofs from a ladder photo.
- 3
We give you a written price. Before anything is touched, you have the number in your hand. No adjusted quote. No change order unless you ask us to expand the work.
- 4
We source the right Boral profile. If we need to match a Boral tile or panel, we use OEM where we can still get it, and quality aftermarket profile matches where OEM is no longer produced. We’ll tell you which one you’re getting and why.
- 5
We do the repair, then test it. We run water over the repair for several minutes before we come off the roof. If the water doesn’t go where it shouldn’t, we’re done. If it does, we start over.
- 6
Written guarantee before we leave. You get the guarantee document that day, in your hand, covering the repair for a full year under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Then we clean up every tile fragment and spent fastener. We leave the place cleaner than we found it, every time.

AfterWhat Boral Roof Repair Costs in Fort Lauderdale
Here are real numbers for common Boral repair scenarios in the Fort Lauderdale market. Not the cheapest, not inflated. What we quote.
| Repair Type | Typical Cost | What Moves It |
|---|---|---|
| Single Boral concrete tile replacement | $350 – $500 | Access difficulty, profile scarcity |
| Boral flashing repair at hips or valleys | $450 – $900 | Flashing condition, existing edge metal |
| Boral steel panel lap leak repair | $400 – $750 | Number of laps, sealant extent |
| Underlayment patch under Boral field | $800 – $1,400 | Square footage, decking condition |
| Boral tile field inspection with minor repairs included | $500 – $900 | Roof size, tile profile |
Prices move with roof pitch, single-story versus two-story, and how scarce the Boral profile is at the time of repair. Walkability matters too: a terracotta tile field with restricted access paths costs more in labor time.

Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Call Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale for Boral Work
Most Boral owners in Fort Lauderdale call us after someone else already failed them. A no-show. A price that changed at the door. A repair that lasted eight weeks. We built Tilehurst specifically for that homeowner.
We’re a Kingswell family roofing company, which means every job follows the same rules: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place clean, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails. That last one isn’t a maybe. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is a full year of documented accountability, and if the repair fails inside that window, we return at no charge. Always.
Our techs know Boral profiles by look and by field performance, but we also carry GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed on the truck for homes with mixed materials or adjacent repairs. One truck, multiple manufacturers, no runaround.
And if a live voice doesn’t answer when you call, it isn’t us. Day, night, weekend, Fort Lauderdale storm panic at 9pm: a person answers. We tell you the price before we touch your roof. That’s just how it should work.
FAQs
Boral has effectively exited the US roofing products market, which makes profile matching and parts sourcing a genuine issue for Fort Lauderdale homeowners. We maintain stock of the most common Boral profiles seen across Broward and source remaining inventory through a small network of distributors and reclaimed-supply relationships. If your profile isn’t readily available, we’ll tell you plainly and give you the best available match.
It depends on when the roof was installed and the specific Boral product line. Many older Boral concrete tile warranties have already expired, and some warranty terms changed when Boral wound down US operations. We can help you determine whether your roof falls under any existing coverage, but our repair work is guaranteed separately and in writing by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, regardless of the manufacturer’s position.
Often yes. We match by profile, color, and texture, working from the field instead of a catalog number. Where an exact OEM match exists, we use it. Where it doesn’t, we use quality aftermarket tiles cast from the same or similar molds. The repair looks intentional, not patched. We will show you the match before it goes on the roof.
Most straight Boral tile replacements and flashing repairs are done within a few days of your first call, and the work itself is typically a single visit. If you’re seeing active water intrusion, we get you on the schedule fast, because the salt-heavy air of Fort Lauderdale accelerates what water started. Call (754) 732-9325 and we will give you a window.
When the Boral tile itself is sound and the underlying issues are localized, repair is almost always smarter. When underlayment is failing across multiple roof planes or 30% or more of the tile field is cracked or displaced, replacement becomes the honest recommendation. We’ll tell you which way the math points. The estimate is free either way.
