Because Margate's roofs are older, a repair here sometimes uncovers deteriorated decking or underlayment beneath the surface. We give you a firm price after a free inspection — and if the damage is widespread enough that the 25% rule kicks in, we'll show you the math on repair versus replacement instead of papering over the problem.

- ✓Same Broward HVHZ code requirements as Coconut Creek — NOA materials, sealed deck, three inspections.

- Wind-lifted or torn architectural shingles.

Frequently asked questions
If the damage is localized and the roof is otherwise sound, repair is the smart, economical choice. But on Margate's aging roofs, if a repair would affect more than 25% of the roof, Florida's 25% rule usually requires a full code upgrade — at which point replacement is often better value. A free inspection tells you which applies.
