We’ve been climbing roofs here since 1984. Pete Navarro started this company with the belief that a roof should outlast the mortgage, and that promise hasn’t changed. Southwest Ranches presents a roofing landscape unlike anywhere else in South Florida: custom estate homes with complex multi-pitch designs, Mediterranean clay tile, standing-seam metal - and working horse barns, stables, and riding arenas on the same parcel. That mixed residential-agricultural reality demands a roofer who understands both high-end residential finishing and agricultural wind-load compliance. We do.
The town’s 1.25-acre minimum lot requirement and open rural character mean roofs here catch more wind than tightly packed suburban developments. Less buffering from neighboring structures, higher effective uplift pressures, and Broward County’s post-Andrew code requirements create a situation where proper fastening schedules and secondary water barriers aren’t optional - they’re what keeps your roof on the structure when a tropical system rolls through.

We recently completed a full tile-to-standing-seam metal re-roof on a 6,000 sq ft estate home near Griffin Road, replacing original 1980s clay tiles that had sustained granule loss and wind uplift failures during a previous storm. The homeowner also needed a new R-panel roof on the attached horse barn, which required separate Broward County engineering review due to the agricultural structure’s independent wind-load requirements. One property, two distinct roofing systems, two permit paths - typical for Southwest Ranches, and exactly the kind of job we handle regularly.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Southwest Ranches
Full Roof Replacement
Estate homes in Southwest Ranches built from the 1980s through the early 2000s are reaching critical roof age. Original clay or concrete tile systems, while durable, weren’t always installed with the secondary water barriers and enhanced fastening schedules Broward County now requires. A full replacement lets us bring the entire assembly - decking, underlayment, flashing, and finish material - up to current hurricane code. We strip to the deck, inspect for hidden moisture damage common in valley intersections of complex rooflines, and rebuild with proper drainage design for the flat terrain and heavy wet-season rainfall this area receives.
New Construction Roofing
New builds in Southwest Ranches continue the town’s tradition of large custom homes on expansive lots. We work directly with homeowners and builders during the design phase to specify roofing systems that match both aesthetic goals and wind-load requirements. Metal roofing with concealed fasteners, tile systems with foam-adhesive backup, and properly engineered low-slope sections with tapered insulation to prevent ponding - these details get locked in before framing, not improvised on the roof.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
While less common on the town’s premier estate properties, architectural shingles remain a practical choice for secondary structures, guest houses, and budget-conscious re-roofs. We install wind-rated shingle systems with proper starter strips, ridge vent integration, and six-nail fastening patterns in wind-borne debris zones. For Southwest Ranches properties, we typically specify Class F wind ratings minimum.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing dominates both residential and agricultural applications here. Standing-seam systems with concealed fasteners protect main residences with clean, modern lines and exceptional wind resistance. For barns, stables, and equipment sheds, R-panel and corrugated metal offer cost-effective coverage - but installation must meet current wind-load codes independently, not grandfathered under old agricultural exemptions. We’ve replaced too many barn roofs where pre-Andrew under-fastening led to panel separation in high winds. We do it to code, with engineering sign-off when required.
Tile Roofing
Mediterranean clay and concrete tile define the aesthetic of Southwest Ranches estate architecture. Original installations from the 1980s and 1990s often lack the secondary water barriers now standard, and valley drainage on large, complex rooflines frequently proves inadequate for concentrated wet-season rainfall. Our tile replacements include full underlayment replacement, upgraded valley flashing, and proper pitch correction on low-slope sections where ponding has become chronic.
Flat Roofing
Low-slope sections on large estates - over garages, porte-cocheres, and modern additions - demand specialized attention. The flat terrain of Southwest Ranches concentrates rainfall, and without proper internal drainage and tapered insulation design, these areas become chronic leak sources. We install modified bitumen, TPO, and PVC systems with proper slope engineering and overflow scuppers.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Southwest Ranches Homes
- Wind-uplift failure on agricultural structures. Barns and stables with R-panel or corrugated metal installed under pre-Andrew fastening codes frequently lose panels in high winds. The open lots of Southwest Ranches expose these structures to full wind velocity with no neighboring buffer. We replace with properly engineered fastening patterns and current wind-load certification.
- Valley leaks at multi-pitch intersections. Large custom homes from the 1980s-1990s often feature complex rooflines with multiple pitch changes. When secondary water barriers are missing or degraded, these valleys become the first failure point in sustained rainfall. We open, inspect, and rebuild with full ice-and-water shield and proper step flashing.
- Ponding on low-slope tile sections. Mediterranean-style estates sometimes incorporate shallow pitches for architectural effect. Without adequate valley drainage and proper underlayment, these areas hold water during the wet season, accelerating tile failure and deck rot. We correct pitch where possible and upgrade drainage systems.
- Permit complications on multi-structure properties. Because each structure on a Southwest Ranches parcel - main house, guest cottage, horse barn - must meet current wind-load codes independently, homeowners often discover that a “simple” barn re-roof triggers full engineering review. We handle permit research and submittal as part of our standard process, so you’re not surprised mid-project.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Southwest Ranches
Yes - each structure must meet current Broward County wind-load codes independently, regardless of agricultural use. Many homeowners assume barns are exempt or grandfathered, but post-Andrew code enforcement treats every roofed structure on the parcel as a separate engineering challenge. We handle permit research and submittal for all structures as part of our standard process. Call (844) 563-1816 to discuss your specific property layout.
Original clay tile from the 1980s and early 1990s often lacks the foam-adhesive or mechanical fastening backup systems now required, and secondary water barriers beneath the tile may be absent or degraded. If your roof has survived multiple storm seasons without visible damage, that’s good news - but age and hidden underlayment failure are still risks. Our photo-documented inspection will show you exactly what’s happening beneath the surface. Estimates are free.
R-panel or corrugated metal with exposed fasteners remains standard for agricultural structures due to cost and availability, but installation must use current wind-load fastening patterns - not the spacing common in pre-2002 construction. Standing-seam metal with concealed fasteners offers superior performance if the budget allows, particularly for barns with conditioned spaces or high-value equipment storage. We’ll assess your specific structure and usage, then recommend accordingly.
Poorly. The flat terrain and intense wet-season rainfall here mean any low-slope area without proper internal drainage and tapered insulation will hold water. We correct this by installing tapered polyiso insulation to create positive drainage, upgrading to membrane systems rated for ponding conditions, and adding overflow scuppers as backup. If you’ve noticed standing water on your roof after heavy rain, that’s a signal to call before the decking rots.
Yes - Broward County requires permits for any re-roof covering more than 25 percent of a structure’s roof area within a 12-month period, and each structure needs its own permit. For Southwest Ranches properties with multiple buildings, this often means simultaneous permit applications with different scope documents. We manage this paperwork as part of our standard service; you won’t need to navigate county offices yourself. Call (844) 563-1816 to start the process.
