DAVIE RESIDENTIAL TILE ROOF REPLACEMENT
A 20-year-old tile roof on a large Davie home had already undergone multiple repairs and no longer met current Florida Building Code requirements.
1 min read
Although no active leaks were present, the homeowners chose to replace the aging roof before new problems emerged, protecting their property, improving insurability and restoring long-term peace of mind.
WHY THE HOMEOWNER REPLACED THE ROOF BEFORE IT FAILED
Proactive Replacement
Although the roof was not actively leaking, it had already required several repairs over its 20-year lifespan and no longer met current Florida Building Code requirements. Replacing it proactively gave the homeowners greater peace of mind, improved insurability, and reduced the risk of costly interior damage.
A TILE ROOF WITH EXTRAORDINARY COMPLEXITY
Careful Planning
This was far more than a standard tile roof replacement. The 13,273-square-foot roof featured dozens of hips, valleys, ridges, transitions, and changing elevations. EcoSmart Construct carefully planned every tile course, flashing detail, and waterproofing connection to deliver lasting protection without compromising the home's architectural design.
A MODERN ROOF BUILT FOR SOUTH FLORIDA
Built to Last
The new roofing system combines premium Polyglass waterproofing products with Newpoint Saxony 900 Slate concrete tiles in Charcoal Blend. Installed to current Florida Building Code standards and verified through professional wind-uplift testing, the new roof is built to withstand South Florida's demanding climate for years to come.
