Fort Lauderdale Roof Pros provides professional residential roof installation in Fort Lauderdale, FL for residential and commercial properties across Broward County. Fort Lauderdale is inside the high velocity hurricane zone. Only Broward and Miami-Dade are. Everything about a new deck here is stricter than the rest of Florida, and the paperwork is a larger share of the job than the roofing itself.
Broward designs to 170 miles per hour for ordinary buildings. That is not a marketing figure.
It is what the structure and the roof assembly get calculated against, and it rules out most of what is sold as high wind elsewhere in the state. Products have to carry an approval valid inside this zone rather than a general statewide one.
On a new deck in the zone the sheathing joints are taped with a self-adhering modified bitumen strip and the whole deck takes a self-adhering underlayment rather than mechanically fastened felt. At this wind speed the underlayment fasteners take metal caps instead of plastic, with ring shank shanks long enough to penetrate three quarters of an inch into the sheathing.
Sequence matters more than people expect in this zone. The deck is taped and sealed before any covering is ordered, so the assembly has to be settled at framing rather than negotiated later at the shingle yard.
Roofing in the zone goes in on a uniform permit application with the approval numbers for every component listed on its face. The City of Fort Lauderdale issues the permit, and the Broward County Board of Rules and Appeals governs how the zone's rules apply here, including the list of moment-based tile systems that may be used. That paperwork comes to you at closeout as a file rather than a bag of brochures.
Tile is the local default on new houses and it is a good roof, but it is a structural decision made while the trusses are being engineered, not a finish chosen later. High wind rated laminate asphalt is cheaper, lighter and entirely correct on a two story house west of the Intracoastal. We will say that out loud even when the plans already show tile.
If your builder is carrying a roofer who holds current approvals in this zone, use him. Schedule is most of the value on new construction and he is already on the site. We earn the call on additions, on second story additions, and on a deck coming back to bare wood because the sheathing is going out.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — Miami-Dade NOA-approved assemblies, ASTM D1970 self-adhered underlayment, 8d ring-shank deck re-nailing, TAS 100(A) rated ridge vents, 26-gauge Galvalume standing seam panels, stainless steel tile fasteners — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Fort Lauderdale and nearby communities including Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs, Miramar.

Materials, equipment and how we do residential roof installation
The difference between residential roof installation that lasts and residential roof installation that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with Miami-Dade NOA-approved assemblies, ASTM D1970 self-adhered underlayment, 8d ring-shank deck re-nailing, TAS 100(A) rated ridge vents, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Fort Lauderdale job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Broward County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
