Fast, Reliable Roofing Company Across Hollywood
When a roof starts leaking in Hollywood, the question isn’t whether to fix it. It’s who can get here, tell you the truth about what’s wrong, and put a real number in writing before touching anything. We’re Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale, a Kingswell family company, and we serve homes across Hollywood from the Lakes to Emerald Hills to Hollywood Lakes. Our crews know the difference between a 1950s low-pitch roof east of US-1 and a newer tile roof west of 95. Call (754) 732-9325 and a live person answers. Every time.
Why Tilehurst Roofing Fort Lauderdale Is Hollywood’s Preferred Roofing Company
Hollywood homeowners have been burned before. A contractor quotes a number, shows up late, then finds “unexpected damage” and the price climbs. We do not work that way. Every Hollywood job starts with a written price before any work begins. That price stays where it is unless you approve a change in writing. The Kingswell Way is simple, and we follow it on every house: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, come back if it fails.
Greg Holloway leads our Hollywood crews. He has walked hundreds of mid-century roofs in this city and knows what to look for before tearing anything off. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, so you know exactly who is on your roof and why they’re there. When a Hollywood customer calls about a stain spreading across a ceiling, we don’t sell a whole new roof from the other end of the phone line. We send someone out to look.
Every repair we do here carries a written guarantee, delivered before the crew leaves. If that repair fails inside the guarantee period, we return at no charge. It’s not a sales promise. It’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s been part of the Kingswell family of roofing companies since 2000.
Styles & brands we work with
Roof Maintenance in Hollywood
Roof Maintenance in Hollywood is not optional if you own one of the thousands of homes built before 1994 east of US-1. These roofs sit under intense subtropical sun, get hammered by summer thunderstorms, and face Atlantic wind-driven rain. Small problems, like lifted shingles at the eaves or cracked sealant around vent pipes, turn into interior leaks fast. Our maintenance visits cover the things homeowners tend to miss: checking the drip edge (the metal strip at the roof’s edge that directs water into gutters, not under the shingles), inspecting flashing around skylights and vents, clearing debris from valleys, and checking for loose or missing ridge cap. A maintenance visit on a typical Hollywood home runs $225 to $425, depending on roof size and access. Most take two to three hours.
What a Hollywood Maintenance Visit Covers
We walk the whole roof surface, the attic, and the underside of the eaves. We look for granule loss on shingles (a sign of age), sun-faded spots where the fiberglass mat is starting to show, and any place water could wick under the roof covering. We also check the underlayment at the edges where Hollywood’s wind-driven rain works its way in over time.
When Hollywood Homeowners Should Schedule Maintenance
The best windows are October or November, after hurricane season but before the dry winter stretch, and again in April before the summer storm cycle. If you’re within a mile of the beach, salt air speeds up corrosion, so annual checks make more sense than waiting for a leak.
Roof Coating in Hollywood
Roof Coating in Hollywood matters most on the flat and low-slope roofs that define the older neighborhoods east of US-1. A fluid-applied coating can extend the life of a sound flat roof by 10 to 15 years, buying real time before a full replacement. On Hollywood’s flat concrete and modified bitumen roofs, coatings also reflect UV, which lowers attic temperatures and cuts cooling bills in the summer. A typical roof coating application on a 1,200-square-foot Hollywood flat roof runs $3,500 to $6,500, including surface prep and two coats. Prep work, not the coating itself, is what drives cost; cracks and blisters need repair first for the coating to bond properly.
Silicone Coatings for Coastal Exposure
Within a mile of the Hollywood beach, we recommend silicone coatings. They handle ponding water better than acrylics and they don’t degrade as quickly under salt spray. Silicone costs more up front, but it holds up longer in this environment.
When a Coating Makes Sense vs. Replacement
If the underlying roof deck is sound and the existing membrane is still adhered, coating works. If the deck is rotten at the eaves, which we see often on 1950s Lakes homes, coating just hides the problem. We’ll tell you which situation you have. No happy talk, no upsell.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
We’re not tied to one manufacturer. Our Hollywood customers choose from seven leading brands, including CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, GAF, Tamko, and Boral. That means the product fits your home, not whatever happens to be in the truck. If your mid-century Hollywood home has original concrete tile and you want to match the profile, we work with Boral and other concrete tile producers to source a close match. If you’re replacing an architectural shingle roof west of 95, we’ll show you options from Owens Corning and CertainTeed side by side. Parts and materials for common Hollywood roof types are kept in local stock, so we’re not waiting on a freight truck when your repair window is tight.

AfterCommon Roofing Company Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- Rotted decking at roof edges on 1950s and 60s homes. Wind-driven rain wicks under old drip edge and rots the wood sheathing at the eaves. We find this on Lakes neighborhood homes constantly, and it’s a repair that needs to happen before any new covering goes on.
- Corroded galvanized flashings within a mile of the beach. Salt spray eats standard galvanized flashing in about five years. Leaks reappear under low-slope roofs that look fine from the street. The fix is stainless steel, and it costs more, but it lasts.
- Asbestos-cement tiles on original 1950s roofs. East of US-1, many roofs still carry original asbestos-cement tiles. Testing before tear-off is required on pre-1980 homes, and skipping it can stall your permit and leave you exposed to a stop-work order.
- Architectural shingles nailed with the wrong pattern. We see roofs installed by out-of-area crews that used an incorrect nailing pattern. The product is rated for 130 mph uplift, but the installation is not. After a storm, the shingles peel back in sheets. It’s not a manufacturer defect; it’s an installation failure.
Pricing for Roofing Company in Hollywood, FL
Here’s what Hollywood homeowners should expect to pay. Minor roof repairs, like replacing a few cracked tiles or resealing flashing around a vent, run $350 to $750. A mid-size shingle repair with decking replacement runs $1,200 to $2,500. Full asphalt shingle replacement on a 1,500-square-foot Hollywood home runs $9,000 to $14,000, and concrete tile replacement runs $18,000 to $28,000 depending on the tile profile and whether new underlayment is required. Flat roof coating runs $3,500 to $6,500. The big variable is what we find when we look underneath: wood rot, old wiring, missing insulation. That’s why we put a written price in your hands before any work starts. You’ll know the number, and you’ll know what’s included. Call (754) 732-9325 to schedule a free estimate.

FAQs About Roofing Company in Hollywood
Yes, if your home east of US-1 was built before 1980 and still has its original roof, you need asbestos testing before any tear-off. Hollywood’s building department requires it, and a positive result means licensed abatement, which adds cost and time. We handle the testing and the abatement coordination so your permit doesn’t stall. Call (754) 732-9325 and we’ll walk you through it.
Hollywood’s 50% rule means that if you’re repairing or replacing more than half of your roof’s surface area, the entire roof must be brought up to current code, including wind mitigation upgrades. On a flat roof east of US-1, that often means new underlayment, new edge metal, and sometimes additional fastening. We’ll tell you before you approve any work whether your repair crosses that threshold. Get an exact answer with a free estimate.
Salt spray within a mile of the Hollywood beach corrodes standard galvanized flashings within about five years. The flashing fails before the roof covering does, and leaks reappear around pipes, vents, and chimneys. Stainless steel costs more, but it lasts the life of the roof. We default to stainless on any coastal Hollywood job, and we’ll show you the price difference in writing.
Rotted wood sheathing at the roof edges, where decades of wind-driven rain wicked under the old drip edge. We find it on a majority of original 1950s Lakes homes we inspect. It’s not visible from the street. You only find it once the old covering is off, which is why we tell Hollywood homeowners to expect possible decking replacement before we open the roof. That’s not a change order; it’s what 70-year-old coastal wood looks like. Call (754) 732-9325 for an inspection.
In most cases, yes. We source through Boral, CertainTeed, and other concrete tile producers to match the original barrel, flat, or S-tile profile on your mid-century Hollywood home. Exact matching works best if you have a few intact tiles we can reference. If the original profile is no longer made, we’ll show you the closest available and get your written approval before ordering. Estimates are free.
If your Hollywood roof has been leaking, or you just want to know what it will cost before you commit, call (754) 732-9325. A live person answers, day or night. We’ll schedule a time, show up in the window we gave, and put a written price in your hands before any work starts. That’s the Kingswell Way, and it’s been working since 2000.
