Broward County is one of only two counties in Florida inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and that single fact drives both its building code and its roofing prices. Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pompano Beach, Coral Springs, Plantation, Davie, and Pembroke Pines hold a dense stock of post-1970s single-family homes, and a very high concentration of Citizens policies means thousands of owners here are on an insurer's clock to re-roof or lose coverage. This guide gives real planning numbers for roof replacement, siding, and gutters in Broward County, priced from a published rate card and adjusted for the Broward County market. The same county-adjusted math is built for the instant estimator, which measures your actual roof by satellite instead of guessing from a zip code average.
Our baseline is architectural shingles, the standard across Broward County. The estimator rate is $600 per square (100 square feet of roof) on our Missouri base rate card, with the Broward County market factor of 1.05 applied, which works out to about $630 per square installed before pitch and complexity adjustments. The HVHZ premium is in that number: sealed roof decks, secondary water barriers, and fastening patterns built for 170-plus mph uplift cost more to install than a standard re-roof. Steeper roofs, cut-up rooflines, multiple layers, and decking replacement price higher. The estimator reads pitch, squares, and complexity from the satellite measurement of your home.
| Home size | Typical roof size | Architectural shingle replacement |
|---|---|---|
| 1,500 sq ft | 17 to 22 squares | $10,700 to $13,900 |
| 2,000 sq ft | 22 to 28 squares | $13,900 to $17,600 |
| 2,500 sq ft | 27 to 34 squares | $17,000 to $21,400 |
| 3,000+ sq ft | 33 to 42 squares | $20,800 to $26,500 |
These are estimates built from the rate card above, not quotes on your house. Older homes in Hollywood and Pompano Beach can land above their band when tear-off exposes decking that has to be replaced or re-fastened to HVHZ standards. Larger two-story homes in Coral Springs and Plantation often land high because of roof size, pitch, and valley count. Your exact number comes from the satellite measurement, and the local pro assigned to your project confirms it on site before any contract is signed.
Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are a serious option in Broward County. They cost more than standard architectural shingles, and in the HVHZ many homeowners choose them for storm performance and because some carriers offer premium discounts for verified impact-resistant roofs. Your assigned local pro can price both options off the same measurement so the upgrade decision is based on real numbers.
Many Broward County homes combine stucco or block with siding on gables, additions, dormers, and second stories. Full resides and partial elevations are both common, especially where original siding has cracked or lost paint adhesion in the coastal humidity. County-adjusted estimator rates per square of siding (100 square feet of wall):
A typical 2,000 sq ft Broward County home carries 18 to 23 squares of siding, which puts a full vinyl residing at roughly $14,100 to $18,000 and a Hardie or LP residing at roughly $18,400 to $23,500. Partial elevations price by measured wall area. Your assigned local pro verifies what is actually siding, checks the condition behind it, and confirms final pricing on site. In neighborhoods with architectural review rules, that pro helps with material and color approval before anything is ordered.
Seamless aluminum gutters run about $12.60 per linear foot for 5-inch and about $15.75 per linear foot for 6-inch in this market, Broward County adjustment applied. Most Broward County homes need 120 to 180 linear feet, so a full gutter replacement usually lands between about $1,500 and $2,800 depending on size, story height, and downspout count. In South Florida downpours, 6-inch gutters with 3x4 downspouts are the right call on most two-story homes and on any roof that drains a large slope into one short gutter run.
Florida carriers, Citizens included, enforce a 15-year roof rule: a shingle roof older than 15 years needs a 4-point inspection proving at least 3 to 5 years of remaining useful life to keep or obtain coverage. Broward's concentration of Citizens policies makes that rule a live deadline for a large share of homeowners here. Florida also runs a 25 percent rule: if more than 25 percent of a roof surface is repaired or replaced within 12 months, the whole roof or section has to be brought up to current code, which in the HVHZ almost always means a full replacement built to hurricane-zone standards instead of a patch. One more Florida rule that shapes every job: assignment of benefits is prohibited, so your project runs cash-pay or financed in your own name, with a written itemized price from your assigned local pro that you can compare against any insurance scope. Get the roof inspected and photographed before you file when you can, and let your pro document damage the way adjusters need to see it.
Broward County enforces full HVHZ compliance: sealed roof decks, secondary water barriers, and wind uplift standards rated for 170-plus mph. Municipal building departments across the county, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, and Pompano Beach among them, run strict in-progress decking attachment inspections before the roof can be dried in, so the fastening pattern is verified while it is still visible. Your assigned local pro holds a Florida Certified Roofing Contractor (CCC) license, pulls the permit for your address, and sequences those inspections into the job before work starts.
What does HVHZ mean for the price of my roof?
The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code requires sealed decks, secondary water barriers, product approvals, and fastening patterns rated for 170-plus mph uplift. The materials and labor cost more than a standard Florida re-roof, and the county verifies the deck attachment in progress. That compliance is built into the Broward County pricing in this guide.
Why does my insurance company care how old my roof is?
Florida carriers apply a 15-year rule to shingle roofs. Past 15 years, you need a 4-point inspection showing 3 to 5 years of remaining life to keep coverage, and many older Broward roofs cannot pass. That inspection deadline, not a leak, is what starts most replacements here.
How does the instant estimator price my house without visiting?
It measures your roof from satellite imagery, counts squares, pitch, and complexity, then applies the published rate card with the Broward County market adjustment of 1.05 against our Missouri base rates. You see an itemized price on screen. The assigned local pro verifies measurements on site and confirms the final price in writing before work starts.
Who actually does the work on my home?
WB Exterior Solutions runs the estimating and assignment. In Florida, the work itself is performed by independent locally licensed contractors. You are assigned one vetted local pro in Broward County holding a Florida Certified Roofing Contractor (CCC) license, and that pro confirms your final quote on site and stands behind the installation.
How long does a roof replacement take in Broward County?
Most single-family installations run one to two days once materials are on site, but HVHZ inspections pace the job: the decking attachment inspection happens mid-install, before dry-in. Permits, decking repairs, and post-storm demand can add time, so getting your measurement and price locked early keeps you ahead of the calendar.
Run the instant estimator and get an itemized price for your Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pompano Beach, Coral Springs, or anywhere-in-Broward-County home in about a minute. No obligation, and your price is measured off your roof, not guessed from a zip code average.
WB's estimator prices Broward County roofs off the same published shingle schedule used in Missouri (architectural shingles at $500 to $685 per square depending on tear-off), with local market pricing for Broward County built into the estimator. Run your address through the instant estimator linked on this page for the range on your measured roof.
Run the free instant estimator linked from this page: it measures your roof by satellite and applies Broward County's local market pricing. WB is a Missouri contractor; work outside WB's home market is routed to an exclusive vetted local partner under WB's program, and that routing is stated up front before you commit to anything.
Measured squares, pitch, and tear-off layers, in that order. On WB's schedule a one-layer tear-off moves architectural shingles from the $500 to $600 per square band to $555 to $685 per square, and steep pitch adds its own band. The estimator counts all three from the satellite measure.
