Trusted Roof Replacement for Fort Lauderdale Homeowners
Roof Replacement - Fort Lauderdale is not a spring project you schedule for aesthetics. It’s what stands between your home and the Atlantic hurricane season, and once the decking starts to go, every week of delay adds cost you cannot see from the street. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale has been replacing roofs in Broward County since our founding in 2000, and we’ve walked more Fort Lauderdale properties after storm damage, salt-air corrosion, and failed patches than most crews will see in a career. Greg Holloway leads our local team, and he answers to one standard: the written price you approve before work starts is the price you pay after the last nail is driven. Call (754) 732-9325 if you suspect your roof is nearing the end of its service life, and we’ll give you an honest read before you spend a dollar.

Styles & brands we work with
Roof Installation
Roof Installation means a complete tear-off down to the decking, then new underlayment, new flashing, new drip edge, and new shingles or tiles installed to current Florida Building Code. You need it when your existing roof has multiple leaks, curled or missing shingles, soft decking, or has simply aged past 20 years in Fort Lauderdale’s salt and sun. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale handles the entire installation with background-checked, uniformed technicians, and you get a written line-item price before a single nail goes in. A full asphalt shingle roof installation in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $9,500 to $18,000 depending on square footage, pitch, and access, while tile or flat systems run higher.
Our Written Price, In Your Hand
No one on our crew has the authority to change a price at the door. The number you approve on paper is the number on the final invoice, period. That’s The Kingswell Way: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it.
Florida Code Compliance, Done Once
Fort Lauderdale sits in a High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so nail patterns, underlayment type, and flashing details are not optional preferences. Our installers pull every permit, schedule every inspection, and won’t call the job done until the county signs off.
Roof Replacement Contractor
Roof Replacement Contractor is the licensed professional who tears off the old roof and installs the new one, and choosing the right one in Fort Lauderdale determines whether you get 30 years of quiet or a callback in 18 months. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale is a Kingswell family company founded in 2000, built specifically for homeowners who’ve already been burned by no-shows, price changes at the door, and repairs that failed within a month. We employ background-checked, uniformed technicians, and every job begins with a written price before any work starts. Most Fort Lauderdale roof replacements run $9,500 to $18,000 for asphalt shingle, with tile, metal, and flat systems priced higher by square foot.
One Crew, One Point of Contact
You’ll know the name of the foreman before the crew arrives, and that foreman stays on your job until it’s done. No subs, no rotating crews, no phone tag about who’s on site today.
We Return if Something Fails
Under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, if a repair or installation issue surfaces inside the guarantee period, our crew returns at no charge. It’s documented before you pay a cent, written in plain language, not legalese.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement is the most common roof replacement in Fort Lauderdale, pairing a full tear-off with architectural or 3-tab shingles rated for South Florida’s wind and UV exposure. You’re due for one when granules collect in your gutters, shingles crack at the corners, or daylight shows through your attic decking. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale installs asphalt systems from CertainTeed, Owens Corning, GAF, IKO, Atlas, and Tamko, and we quote every option so you’re choosing on price and warranty, not whatever happens to be in the truck. Expect most asphalt shingle replacements in Fort Lauderdale to land between $9,500 and $18,000 depending on roof complexity and square footage.
Why CertainTeed and Owens Corning Lead Here
CertainTeed’s Landmark series carries strong wind ratings, and Owens Corning’s Duration line holds up better than average against the kind of UV Fort Lauderdale dishes out year-round. We’ll show you samples and warranty sheets side by side before you commit.
Underlayment Is Half the Job
The shingles get the credit, but the synthetic underlayment underneath is what keeps wind-driven rain out of your attic when a named storm passes. On every replacement, we strip down and install a full new underlayment layer, not just patch over the old felt.
New Roof Installation
New Roof Installation is a from-scratch roof on new construction or an addition, where there is no existing roof to tear off. In Fort Lauderdale, this usually means new residential builds in neighborhoods like Victoria Park, Rio Vista, or Sailboat Bend, or a major addition where the existing roofline is being extended. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale handles new installs with the same written-price policy and the same background-checked, uniformed crew you’d get on any replacement. New asphalt shingle roof installation in Fort Lauderdale typically starts around $9,500 for smaller footprints and scales up with square footage, pitch, and the manufacturer you select from our seven brand options: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral.
Decking and Pitch Evaluated First
New construction roofs live or die by the decking underneath, and Fort Lauderdale’s humidity punishes cheap OSB quickly. We inspect and specify the right decking before anything else goes down, and it’s listed on your written quote.
Material Choice Without a House Brand
We’re not pushing one manufacturer. You can spec GAF for cost, IKO for a specific profile, or Atlas for impact rating, and we’ll price all of it honestly.
Reroofing
Reroofing in Fort Lauderdale can mean two things: a full tear-off and replacement, or a code-compliant overlay where local rules and roof condition allow it. Most homeowners ask us for reroofing when their existing shingles are at the end of life but the decking underneath is still sound. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale will always tell you which route is actually right, and we do not put a second layer over a failing first one just to save a dollar. A full reroof with asphalt shingles in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $9,500 to $18,000, while an overlay, where permitted, can save roughly $1,500 to $2,500 on tear-off and dump fees.
Overlay Versus Tear-Off, Straight Answer
Fort Lauderdale code restricts overlays in many older neighborhoods, and we will not install one that won’t pass inspection. If the decking is soft or the existing layer is already double, it’s a tear-off, full stop.
A Year of Accountability After the Job
Every reroof we complete carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise, so if anything about the installation falls short inside the first year, we return and make it right. That promise is written into your paperwork, not implied by a handshake.
Flat Roof Replacement
Flat Roof Replacement applies to the low-slope or no-slope roofs common on mid-century Fort Lauderdale homes, carports, and patio covers, and it usually means TPO, modified bitumen, or a built-up system rather than shingles. The big enemy here is ponding water, which in Fort Lauderdale’s rainy season eats through flat systems faster than UV ever will. Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale installs and replaces flat roofs with manufacturers like GAF and IKO, and we focus on drainage before we focus on membrane. Flat roof replacement in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $10,500 to $19,000, with the price driven by the membrane type, insulation needs, and whether tapered drainage is required.
TPO Versus Modified Bitumen, Explained Plain
TPO is a white single-ply membrane that reflects heat, which matters in Fort Lauderdale. Modified bitumen is a multi-layer asphalt-based system that handles foot traffic better. We’ll walk you through both with real per-square pricing.
Ponding Water Gets Fixed, Not Covered Up
A flat roof that ponds water will fail the same way again if you only swap the membrane. Our replacements correct the drainage issue, whether that’s a new tapered system or repositioned scuppers, before the new roof goes down.
Brands We Service
We stock and install complete roofing systems from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, and Tamko, and clay tile from Boral. That means you’re not locked into whatever the contractor happens to have a relationship with. We’ll show you cut sheets, warranty terms, and side-by-side pricing for each brand that fits your home, so the choice is yours on real information.
CertainTeed and Owens Corning are the two we install most on Fort Lauderdale pitched roofs, and our crews know their fastener and ventilation requirements cold. IKO and Atlas show up often on mid-century and modern builds where a specific shingle profile matters. Boral tile handles the barrel and flat tile profiles you see on Spanish-style homes throughout the area. Whether your home calls for GAF or any other make, we can source it, price it, and install it under the Kingswell Guarantee.

AfterSigns You Need a Pro Right Now
- Granules in the gutters or at downspout outlets. That grit is the protective surface of your shingles washing away, and once it goes, the asphalt underneath bakes and cracks. In Fort Lauderdale, granite-heavy runoff is often one of the first visible signs a replacement is 12 to 24 months out.
- Daylight through the attic decking. If you can look up and see pinpricks of light between the rafters, water is already finding its way into the roof cavity, even if the ceiling paint hasn’t stained yet. By the time a Fort Lauderdale roof shows visible daylight, the decking on that section is typically compromised.
- Curled, cracked, or missing shingles after a storm. Wind-lifted shingles don’t reseal, and every missing tab exposes the underlayment to the next rain. Fort Lauderdale’s afternoon thunderstorms will find that gap faster than a calm week ever will.
- Soft spots when you walk the roof. A section that feels spongy underfoot is decking rot, not a shingle problem. Soft decking means the structural layer beneath the roof covering has already been wet long enough to decay.
- Your roof is 18 to 22 years old and original to the house. Most asphalt shingle roofs in South Florida last 15 to 20 years, not the 25 or 30 printed on the package. Salt air and UV accelerate aging in Fort Lauderdale, and a 20-year-old roof here is often running on borrowed time.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
Inspection and honest assessment. Greg Holloway or a senior member of our Fort Lauderdale team walks the roof, checks the attic, and gives you a straight read on condition. You’ll get photos of what we see, and if your roof has life left in it, we’ll tell you that too.
- 2
Written line-item price. Before any work starts, you get a written quote that breaks out materials, labor, dump fees, permits, and any decking replacement. That number is fixed, no surprise add-ons at the door.
- 3
Permits and scheduling. We pull every permit the city of Fort Lauderdale requires and coordinate all inspections. You get a start date and a window, and our live-answer phone line keeps you updated if anything shifts.
- 4
Replacement and daily cleanup. Our background-checked, uniformed crew tears off the old roof, installs the new system per manufacturer and code, and cleans the site daily. We treat your landscaping and your neighbors with respect.
- 5
Final walkthrough and written guarantee. After the final inspection passes, we walk the job with you, then hand you the written guarantee before the crew leaves. If anything fails inside the guarantee period, we return at no charge under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
How Much Does Roof Replacement Cost in Fort Lauderdale?
A typical asphalt shingle roof replacement in Fort Lauderdale runs $9,500 to $18,000 for an average 1,600 to 2,200 square foot home, depending on roofline complexity, pitch, and whether decking replacement is needed. Flat roof replacement runs $10,500 to $19,000, and tile or metal systems start higher, often $18,000 to $35,000 or more. These are not national averages, they’re what we quote and build to every month across Fort Lauderdale’s neighborhoods.
What moves the price most: the size and steepness of the roof, whether existing decking passes inspection or needs replacing, the manufacturer you choose from our seven brand options, and access – a tight lot in Victoria Park or Colee Hammock means more time hand-carrying materials. The best way to avoid overpaying is to compare written line-item quotes, not verbal estimates, and to verify that permit fees and dump costs are already included. Our free estimate includes a full breakdown, and the number on that paper is the number you pay. Call (754) 732-9325 and we’ll give you real dollars for your specific roof.
