AfterFast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Margate
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Margate runs $9,500-$25,000+ for a full reroof, with most 1960s-1980s CBS ranch homes landing between $12,000 and $18,000 depending on material weight, tear-off scope, and county permit documentation. Our crews know Margate’s unincorporated Broward County permitting path, the Oriole Gardens barrel-tile tear-offs, and the carport tie-ins that leak after every summer downpour. If your roof needs a straight answer, call (561) 816-5648. Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every roof we set in Margate.
Key Takeaways
- Margate reroofs pull unincorporated Broward County permits, not city permits, and the county reviews wind-load and HVHZ documentation before any material gets ordered.
- Full shingle reroofs in Margate run $9,500-$14,000; tile runs $18,000-$25,000+; standing-seam metal starts around $16,000.
- Original 1970s barrel tile often survives but the underlayment doesn’t. County inspectors care about deck capacity for new tile weight before they’ll approve the permit.
- We offer free written estimates with line-item pricing. No change orders, no vague allowances. Call (561) 816-5648 to schedule.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Margate’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company
Margate homeowners don’t call a roofing outfit that treats a reroof like a commodity. They call us because we’ve pulled dozens of re-roof permits through unincorporated Broward County for houses off NW 57th Drive, Margate Boulevard, and Rock Island Road. Our technicians arrive uniformed and background-checked, and every call to (561) 816-5648 gets a live person, 24/7, not a voicemail loop. That matters when a summer squall rips a section of shingles off a carport tie-in at 9 p.m.
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and has stayed owner-operated ever since. The 36500-Day Done Right Promise is the anchor: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Not for a year, not for a decade. For as long as you own the roof. Margate homeowners who’ve been burned by no-show crews and vague allowances appreciate a company with a published license number and an owner who answers when the permit office pushes back.
We also install and replace windows and doors, but our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing team is the one Margate calls when the original 1968 barrel tile starts sliding after the deck rots. Our scheduling is coordinated from our South Florida office, and crews serve Margate locally. No national-chain carpentry-adjacent guesswork.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Margate
Every roof we touch in Margate starts with the county’s structural reality: your 1970s ranch was designed for a much lighter roof than today’s code assumes. Here’s how we scope each material against Margate’s specific housing stock.
Asphalt Shingle Roofs
Architectural shingles are the most common reroof on Margate’s gable-and-hip CBS ranches. They weigh less than tile, which means fewer dead-load surprises at the county permit desk. We tear off the old layer, inspect the deck for the rot we almost always find around low-slope carport transitions, and set 30-year architectural shingles rated for Broward County’s wind zone. A typical 1,600-2,200 sq ft Margate ranch runs $9,500-$14,000 complete with tear-off and re-flashing.
Tile Roofs (Concrete and Clay)
Margate’s 1960s-1980s subdivisions are full of original barrel tile. Homeowners love the look and the longevity, but the underlayment underneath those tiles dry-rots in the Broward sun after 30-40 years. We see it on nearly every estimate off Margate Boulevard and in Oriole Gardens. The fix isn’t just slapping new tile on old felt: the county asks for the roof deck’s capacity to carry added tile weight, and if the trusses can’t prove it, we sister framing before the new tile goes down. Tile reroofs in Margate run $18,000-$25,000+ depending on tile profile, underlayment spec, and framing repairs.
Standing-Seam Metal Roofs
Metal roofs are increasingly popular on Margate’s larger ranch-lot homes because they handle Broward’s wind-driven rain better than any other system. We install standing-seam panels with concealed fasteners, not exposed-screw agricultural tin. The county requires design-pressure documentation on the panel profile and clip spacing before the permit clears. Metal reroofs in Margate start around $16,000 and climb based on panel gauge, seam profile, and whether we’re removing existing tile or shingle. On the plus side, a metal roof drops the windstorm portion of your insurance premium when the wind-mitigation inspection comes back clean.
Roof Repair and Targeted Leak Work
Not every Margate roof needs a full replacement. We repair valley leaks, carport-to-house intersections, scupper failures, and fascia rot on roofs that still have serviceable decking. If the repair is over $200, we knock $40 off automatically. That’s a standing offer, not a promo. We also give free second opinions on any written estimate from another company, so if a competitor tells you the whole roof is shot, call (561) 816-5648 before you sign anything.

Trusted Brands We Service in Margate
Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for eight premium brands, and for Margate roof-related openings we commonly work with ECO Window Systems, Therma-Tru, and Mr-Glass products. We stock common flashing profiles, ridge cap, and transitions locally, which keeps turnaround tight for Margate repair jobs. If you’re pairing a reroof with impact-rated window or door replacement, we can scope both scopes in one visit and give you one written quote with line items separated cleanly.
Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Margate Homes
- Dry-rotted tile underlayment. Original 1970s barrel tile sits on felt that turns to dust after four decades of Broward UV and humidity. The tile looks fine from the curb. The roof leaks at the first good storm. We tear back to deck and re-set the tile on modern self-adhered underlayment.
- Carport-to-house tie-in failures. The low-slope transition where a flat carport roof meets the main hip roof is the single most common leak point on Margate CBS ranches. County inspectors flag these intersections during re-roof permit review, and we re-flash them with full membrane, not just caulk.
- Deck capacity issues on heavier tile replacements. Larger Margate lots from the 1960s and 1970s often had original tile installed over skip sheathing or lightweight trusses. When owners choose heavy new barrel tile, the county won’t approve the permit until the deck proves it can carry the load. We always check this before we quote, so there’s no mid-job change order.
- Mangled material drops in narrow driveways. Margate’s ranch homes have short driveways and tight side yards. Long material deliveries from Okeechobee Road supply yards force stacked staging, and rushed crews crack tile and dent metal panels. We schedule staged drops and protect surfaces while we work, which matters on homes with mature landscaping and tight setbacks.
Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Margate, FL
Here are honest ranges for Margate, not national averages. Full asphalt shingle reroof on a 1,600-2,200 sq ft ranch: $9,500-$14,000. Concrete or clay tile reroof with tear-off and re-underlayment: $18,000-$25,000+. Standing-seam metal: $16,000-$28,000 depending on panel gauge, seam profile, and whether we’re removing tile first. Repairs and leak work start around $350, and anything over $200 automatically gets $40 off.
What moves the number in Margate specifically: whether we’re tearing off one layer or two, whether the county requires deck reinforcement for added tile weight, how many roof planes and carport tie-ins the house has, and whether the existing flashings and scuppers need full replacement. We write every quote with line items so you see exactly what you’re paying for. No allowances, no vague “as needed” categories.

Florida Pays You Back
Margate homeowners who pair a reroof with impact-rated windows or doors can stack real incentives. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and a wind-mitigation inspection ($75-$150) after the work can drop the windstorm portion of your insurance premium by roughly 25% on average. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, and the federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying units. The final numbers come from the program and your carrier, not from us, but we’ll point you to the right documentation for every credit you’re eligible for.
How Margate’s Permitting Reality Shapes Every Reroof
Margate’s entire residential footprint sits in Broward County’s unincorporated building-permit jurisdiction for roofing. That’s the sentence most homeowners don’t hear until their first permit gets kicked back. A shingle, tile, or metal reroof on your 1960s-1980s ranch must clear county-specific wind-load and HVHZ documentation, not a municipal Margate permit, before a single bundle gets ordered. If you’ve heard a neighbor complain about a stalled permit, that’s usually why: the county asked for the old roof deck’s capacity to carry new tile weight, and the contractor didn’t scope it before quoting.
On one recent reroof off NW 57th Drive in Oriole Gardens, we tore into a 1972 CBS ranch where the original barrel-tile underlayment had dry-rotted around the low-slope carport tie-in. The county permit review flagged the patio-to-main-roof transition, so our crew tore back to the trusses, sistered two new rafters, and re-flashed the entire intersection with self-adhered membrane before setting new concrete tile rated for the Broward High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That’s the difference between a roofer who knows Margate’s county review process and one who finds out after the dumpster arrives.
Detached workshops and carport-to-garage conversions built under older county agricultural setbacks create another Margate-specific headache: discontinuous roof planes that leak at the scupper and fascia lines during summer downpours. We look for these on every estimate because they’re easy to miss from the curb but they’ll send water inside the first time a 3 p.m. thunderstorm dumps two inches in thirty minutes.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Margate
Margate’s roofing permits are issued by unincorporated Broward County because the city’s residential footprint falls under county building jurisdiction for structural work, including reroofs. The city handles the business tax receipt for contractors, but the county reviews wind-load calculations, HVHZ documentation, deck capacity, and material specs before the permit clears. If your roofer doesn’t know that, your project stalls before it starts. Call (561) 816-5648 and we’ll walk you through the county submittal before you spend a dollar.
Sometimes yes, if the tile itself is intact and the county approves the scope as a re-cover with new underlayment. We assess each tile for cracks, spalling, and fastener condition. If enough tiles are broken or delaminating, re-setting them isn’t worth it and we’ll tell you that. The underlayment underneath is almost always shot after 40+ years, regardless of what the tile looks like from the street. Call (561) 816-5648 for a free roof inspection and we’ll tell you honestly whether the tile can be saved.
A metal roof doesn’t change the wind-mitigation inspection itself, but it can improve your credits because the roof is rated for Broward’s wind zone and installs with documented design pressures. The jalousie windows are a separate issue: they offer near-zero wind resistance and will offset some of the roof gains. We install impact-rated windows and doors too, so we can scope both together and show you where the insurance premium math lands. Call (561) 816-5648 and we’ll put one written quote in front of you.
Margate’s larger ranch lots, especially in the older subdivisions off Rock Island Road and west of 441, still have septic systems and shallow wells. County setbacks limit where we can stage a dump trailer or a material lift, and crossing a leach field with a loaded trailer compacts the soil and risks cracking drain lines. We map those setbacks on the first visit and plan the material drop and tear-off path around them, so we don’t damage your septic system. Call (561) 816-5648 and we’ll come walk the lot with you.
That’s the single most common failure we see on Margate ranches. The original roof was flashed with metal that corroded after 40 years, and a low-slope carport roof doesn’t shed water fast enough to hide a bad transition. If the previous roofer re-flashed with caulk or thin metal instead of a full self-adhered membrane, it leaks within a season or two. We tear back to the trusses, inspect for rot, sister framing as needed, and re-flash the entire intersection with membrane rated for the Broward High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Call (561) 816-5648 and we’ll inspect the tie-in before recommending anything.
