Fort Lauderdale

Local Roofing Conditions

Re-roof permits
Repair permits inside city limits are issued by the City of Fort Lauderdale Building Services. Broward County's Board of Rules and Appeals adopts local amendments to the Florida Building Code that apply countywide.
Wind zone and product approvals
Broward is in the HVHZ. Roofing products need a Miami-Dade NOA or a Florida Product Approval for HVHZ use, and Broward's Board of Rules and Appeals adopts local roofing amendments to the Florida Building Code.
Local commercial buildings
Warehouses near Port Everglades, marine-industry buildings along the New River and the 17th Street corridor, retail along Las Olas Boulevard, and high-rise condominiums.
Heat, salt and UV
Ocean salt air, heat and UV are hard on membranes and metals, and heavy rain events test roof drainage.

Florida Building Code

Roofing Code Requirements

  • Roofing products installed in Florida need a Florida Product Approval or local approval; in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (Miami-Dade and Broward) that means a Miami-Dade NOA or a Florida approval for HVHZ use.
  • Roof assemblies are designed to the wind uplift loads in the Florida Building Code for the building's location, height and exposure, and edge metal must meet the code-referenced edge securement standard.
  • Re-roofing falls under the Florida Building Code, Existing Building. Florida law limits the old "25% rule": when the existing roof was built to the 2007 code or later, repairing part of it does not by itself require replacing the whole roof.
  • Re-roofing requires a permit and inspections from the local building department, which we pull under our Certified Roofing Contractor license CCC1337764.
