Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across North Andrews Gardens
Roof replacement and installation in North Andrews Gardens typically runs $8,500-$24,000 depending on materials and scope, with most re-roofs on the neighborhood’s 1,500-square-foot CBS ranch homes completed in 3-5 business days. Because North Andrews Gardens is an unincorporated Broward County enclave, every permit routes through the county’s building department, not a city office, which means stricter post-Hurricane Andrew fastening and underlayment rules than many homeowners expect. Call (844) 563-1816 and a live person will answer, 24 hours a day.
We’ve been climbing roofs in Broward County since 1984. North Andrews Gardens sits just west of Oakland Park Boulevard, bordered by Commercial Boulevard to the south and roughly NE 56th Court to the north. The neighborhood’s grid of modest ranch homes built between 1955 and 1975 looks quiet from the street, but we’ve learned that most of those original flat roofs are hiding decades of moisture damage, outdated nailing patterns, and insulation boards that crumble on contact. When your insurer sends a non-renewal notice or a Broward County inspector flags your deck, you need a crew that knows exactly what this specific neighborhood demands, not a storm-chasing outfit measuring from satellite photos.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation team keeps materials staged for the 33334 ZIP code. We can usually inspect within 24 hours and start tear-off shortly after permit approval.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in North Andrews Gardens
Full Roof Replacement
Most full replacements we perform in North Andrews Gardens start with a flat or low-slope roof on a CBS ranch home that’s reached 20-30 years of age. The original built-up or modified bitumen system has usually failed at the seams, and the wood decking beneath has absorbed moisture through pinholes you couldn’t see from the ground. Because Broward County enforces post-Andrew fastening schedules on every re-roof permit, we routinely find that the original 1×6 plank decking or plywood substrate can’t meet current nail-spacing requirements without sistering or full replacement. We quote this upfront, not after tear-off. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise means if we miss something, we come back and make it right - no paperwork, no arguing.
Flat Roofing
Flat roofing is the dominant need in North Andrews Gardens, and it’s where the most homeowners get caught off guard. Central Broward’s flat terrain means water has nowhere to drain except through your roof assembly, so slope and membrane integrity are everything. We install fully adhered TPO and modified bitumen systems from GAF and Atlas, designed for the 90°F+ days and UV bombardment that degrades dark-surfaced membranes years before their rated lifespan. On a 1962 CBS ranch home in the heart of North Andrews Gardens, we tore off a failing three-ply built-up roof with decades of moisture trapped in the wood deck. Broward County permit inspection revealed outdated nailing patterns, so we sistered damaged decking and installed a fully adhered TPO membrane with wind-rated fasteners, bringing the home into compliance and qualifying for a wind-mitigation credit that cut the owner’s annual premium by 18%.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is increasingly popular among North Andrews Gardens homeowners who want to escape the flat-roof insurance trap entirely. A standing seam metal roof sheds water, reflects heat, and qualifies for the best wind-mitigation discounts available in Florida. We install Tamko and Boral metal systems rated for the wind loads this county demands. The transition from flat to pitched metal does require structural evaluation - some of these 1960s CBS homes need rafter reinforcement - but we handle that in our initial scope, not as a mid-project surprise. Done right, a metal roof on a North Andrews Gardens ranch can outlast the mortgage.
New Construction & Additions
While most of our work in 33334 is replacement, we also roof new additions and detached structures where homeowners want to match or exceed the existing home’s wind rating. We coordinate directly with Broward County on permit packages, including the secondary water barrier documentation that unincorporated properties now require. Every new roof we install meets or exceeds Florida’s 2023 building code amendments for high-velocity hurricane zones.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in North Andrews Gardens Homes
- Broward County inspector flags inadequate nail spacing on re-roof. Most 1955-1975 CBS homes here were built with decking patterns that don’t meet current fastening schedules. We inspect for this during our initial assessment and include sistering or replacement in our quote if needed, so the inspector’s visit is a formality, not a crisis.
- Original flat roof’s low slope causes hidden ponding water. Water that sits for more than 48 hours after a storm has already found its way into the insulation boards. We see this constantly along streets like NE 58th Court and NE 60th Street, where the roof looks intact from the curb but crumbles underfoot during tear-off.
- Older homes lack a secondary water barrier. Broward County now mandates this on every re-roof permit in unincorporated areas. Without it, a pop-up thunderstorm during the 2-3 day tear-off and dry-in window can soak your interior. We schedule around weather and install temporary protection, but the permanent secondary barrier is non-negotiable and non-optional.
- Insurers non-renew policies on roofs past 15-20 years. South Florida carriers are actively dropping coverage on North Andrews Gardens homes with original flat roofs, regardless of visible condition. A new roof with proper wind-mitigation documentation often becomes the only path to keeping coverage at all.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in North Andrews Gardens
Because North Andrews Gardens is unincorporated, all permits route through Broward County’s building department, which adopted enhanced requirements after Hurricane Andrew to prevent interior water damage if the primary roof covering fails in a storm. The secondary barrier - typically a self-adhered membrane or sealed decking - buys time during high winds when shingles or membrane sections might lift. This is not optional for permit approval, and skipping it means failing inspection. We include proper secondary barrier installation in every North Andrews Gardens quote - call (844) 563-1816 to discuss your specific roof assembly.
South Florida insurers are non-renewing policies based on roof age alone, regardless of visible condition, because flat and low-slope roofs in this climate statistically fail catastrophically once past 15-20 years. Your 1965 built-up roof has likely exceeded any insurer’s risk tolerance, and the lack of current leaks does not predict performance in a named storm. Replacing with a code-compliant system that includes wind-mitigation documentation is often the only way to maintain coverage or secure new coverage at reasonable rates. We can inspect and provide the documentation your agent needs - estimates are free.
Yes, and an increasing number of homeowners in 33334 are doing exactly that to escape the flat-roof insurance cycle. The existing structure must be evaluated for pitch feasibility and rafter capacity - some CBS ranches need modest reinforcement to support a pitched metal assembly. We handle this evaluation during our initial inspection and include any structural work in our upfront scope. A properly installed standing seam metal roof qualifies for maximum wind-mitigation credits and can last 40-60 years. Call us to assess your specific home’s suitability.
Because North Andrews Gardens is unincorporated, re-roof permits are issued by Broward County, not a city office. Typical permit fees for a 1,500-square-foot residential re-roof run $450-$850 depending on valuation and whether structural deck work is included. We pull permits as part of our standard process and include the fee in your quoted price - no separate invoice, no surprise at closing.
Three to five business days from tear-off to final inspection, assuming standard conditions and first-pass inspection approval. Day one is tear-off and deck repair; days two through four are dry-in, membrane or shingle installation, and detail work; day five is typically Broward County final inspection. Weather, unexpected deck damage, or inspection re-checks can extend this, but we communicate daily and never leave a roof open overnight without proper protection. Call (844) 563-1816 to schedule - we can usually start within a week of permit approval.
