Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement Across Plantation
A full roof replacement in Plantation typically runs between $11,500 and $28,000 for most single-family homes, with architectural shingle tear-offs landing around $14,000 to $19,000. The job usually takes 2 to 5 days once materials arrive and permits clear. If you’re weighing repair against replacement on a 1980s concrete tile roof, the decision usually comes down to one thing: whether the underlayment has already failed. Call Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale at (754) 732-9325 and we’ll walk the roof with you, write the price down, and hand it to you before any work starts.
We work Plantation neighborhoods every week – Plantation Isles, Country Club Estates, Jacaranda, the mid-century ranches off Broward Boulevard. We know what Broward County’s HVHZ wind code demands from a roof replacement here, and we know which HOAs will not budge on tile profile. Greg Holloway leads our team, and he’s the one who makes sure the crew shows up in the window we gave you.
Why Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale Is Plantation’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company

Every roof replacement in Plantation gets a written price before any work starts. Not an estimate range, not a verbal ballpark. A line-item quote you can read. And every replacement carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise – if something isn’t done right, we correct it within a full year, in writing. That’s the Kingswell Way, and it’s not a premium add-on. It’s the floor.
Styles & brands we work with
Flat Roof Replacement in Plantation
Flat Roof Replacement on Plantation’s mid-century ranch homes runs between $9,800 and $18,500 depending on square footage and the system you choose. These low-slope roofs appear most often in the original 1960s sections around Plantation Middle School and the neighborhoods east of University Drive. They were built with gravel-and-tar or early torch-down systems that have now outlived their design life twice over.
What most Plantation homeowners don’t realize is that a flat roof in Broward County still has to meet HVHZ uplift and water-resistance standards, even though it doesn’t look like a typical pitched shingle roof. That means the membrane, the fastening pattern, the edge details, and the drains all get inspected. We install TPO, modified bitumen, and coated systems, with tapered insulation where ponding water has been a problem.
TPO and Modified Bitumen Systems
TPO is the best fit for most Plantation ranch homes today. It’s white, reflective, and holds up to the South Florida sun without breaking down the way old asphalt-based systems do. Modified bitumen costs slightly less upfront and is easier to patch later, which matters if you have active roof penetrations like HVAC units or plumbing vents.
We’ll tell you the straight cost difference and let you decide. That’s the whole point of a written price in your hands before the work starts.
Roof Installation in Plantation
Roof Installation for new construction or full tear-off in Plantation runs between $12,000 and $32,000, with asphalt architectural shingles on the lower end and concrete tile or standing seam metal pushing higher. If you’re building an addition or a new home in Plantation Acres, the roof has to be engineered into the HVHZ wind load plan from day one, not bolted on as an afterthought.
We install asphalt shingles, architectural shingles, concrete tile, and flat systems. For Plantation specifically, we talk most homeowners through the shingle decision early: a standard three-tab meets code, but an architectural shingle like GAF Timberline HDZ or CertainTeed Landmark carries the 130 mph wind rating that insurers want to see on a wind mitigation form.
Underlayment, Decking, and the Details That Actually Hold
A roof is only as good as what’s under the surface. We replace rotted decking when we find it, lay full synthetic underlayment, and flash every valley, wall, and pipe boot properly. These are the things a cheap bid leaves out and the things a Broward County re-roof inspector looks for before signing off.
Ask any Plantation roofer what the nailing pattern is. If they can’t answer, keep looking.
Trusted Brands We Service in Plantation
We install seven major manufacturers – GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral – because no single brand is right for every Plantation home. CertainTeed and Owens Corning are the two we quote most often on architectural shingle replacements in Jacaranda and Plantation Isles. IKO and Atlas carry strong budget-friendly architectural lines when you need the wind rating without the premium price. We stock common shingle colors and ridge caps locally, so a Plantation replacement doesn’t stall waiting on a distribution run from Miami.
Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Plantation Homes
- Brittle concrete tile cracking from oak limbs. In Plantation Isles and Country Club Estates, mature live oaks drop limbs that crack original 1970s and 1980s concrete tiles. Once the tile cracks, water reaches the underlayment, and if that underlayment is original, you’re replacing the roof, not patching it.
- HOA tile-matching dead ends. Many of those original tile profiles are discontinued. A homeowner finds out mid-project that the HOA won’t accept a mismatched tile, which forces a full tile-to-shingle conversion. We handle that conversation before the permit is pulled, not after the roof is open.
- Missing wind mitigation paperwork. A roof can be installed correctly and still fail the insurance discount if nobody documented the uplift rating, the deck attachment, and the water barrier. We complete the wind mitigation inspection form as part of the job, not as a follow-up.
- Low-slope ranch roof failures. The flatter mid-century roofs around Plantation hold water longer than pitched roofs, and standing water for even a few hours after a summer storm accelerates membrane breakdown. If you see water ponding 48 hours after rain, the slope or the drains need addressing, not just patching.

FAQs About Roof Replacement in Plantation
Broward County sits in the HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone), which means your roof replacement has to be designed and documented to withstand wind uplift pressures that vary by roof zone but are anchored to a 130 mph-plus design wind speed. GAF Timberline HDZ, CertainTeed Landmark, and Owens Corning Duration shingles all carry the required ratings when installed with the manufacturer’s full system: starter strip, correct nailing pattern, full underlayment, and proper flashing. A shingle labeled “impact resistant” does not automatically satisfy HVHZ requirements. The system does. Call (754) 732-9325 and we’ll walk you through what your specific roof needs.
A wind mitigation inspection completed at the time of replacement and filed with your insurer is what unlocks the premium discounts on a Plantation home. The form documents your roof deck attachment, roof-to-wall connections, the water barrier, and the roof covering rating. Without it, the insurer assumes the worst and prices your policy accordingly, even if you just installed a brand new roof. We complete the form on every replacement, we don’t charge extra for it, and we hand you a copy before the crew leaves.
Because the original tile profiles are often discontinued, and Plantation HOAs like the ones in Plantation Isles and Country Club Estates enforce a uniform appearance rule. If your 1980s concrete tile can’t be matched, the HOA will not approve a patchwork repair. That forces a conversion to architectural shingles, which is often the better long-term play anyway: the shingles carry a higher wind rating, cost less than new tile, and open the door to the insurance discount. We’ve handled these conversions before, and we manage the HOA approval paperwork as part of the job.
A compliant quote includes the full HVHZ system: synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys, drip edge, starter strip, the manufacturer’s required nailing pattern, new flashing at every penetration, and a completed wind mitigation form. A cheap bid often prices only the shingles and labor, leaves out the underlayment upgrade, skips the drip edge, and never mentions the wind mitigation form until it’s too late to do it properly. If the quote is suspiciously low in Plantation, that’s usually what’s missing. We’ll put every component in writing so you can compare apples to apples.
Low-slope roofs in Plantation have different code requirements than pitched shingle roofs, and the inspector checks different things. Instead of shingle nailing patterns, the inspector verifies the membrane type, the seam welds, the edge metal, and the drainage slope. The permit still goes through Broward County, but the scope of work reads differently: you’re installing a roof system designed for water flow and ponding resistance, not just wind uplift. We pull the permit, coordinate the inspection, and don’t close the job until it passes.
In Plantation Isles, We Replaced a Roof the HOA Said Couldn’t Be Matched
Plantation’s mature oak-canopied subdivisions like Plantation Isles and Country Club Estates produce a roof-replacement pattern no neighboring city sees: brittle original concrete tiles cracked by falling limbs, forcing tile-to-shingle conversions that must still pass strict HOA aesthetic review. It’s not enough to install a good roof. The roof has to look like it belongs on the house, and the HOA has to sign off before the permit closes.
In Plantation Isles, our crew replaced a 1980s concrete tile roof after a fallen oak limb cracked over a dozen tiles and the HOA required a like-kind visual match. We stripped the brittle tile, replaced rotted decking, and installed GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles with full underlayment, drip edge, ice and water shield in the valleys, and a new ridge vent. The result met both the 130 mph wind rating and the HOA’s uniform Mediterranean profile. That’s what a Plantation roof replacement actually looks like: code, HOA, insurance, and a roof that holds.
