Commercial & Condominium Roofing in Broward County
A failing roof on a Broward building isn’t a maintenance line item — it’s a recertification and reserve-study problem waiting to happen. Academia is a licensed Florida roofing contractor (CCC1332624) installing HVHZ, NOA-compliant systems on occupied condos and commercial buildings, held in-house alongside our general contracting stack.
The toughest roofing code in the country.
Broward County sits inside Florida’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — the same demanding roofing standard as Miami-Dade. Every assembly we install must carry a valid, current HVHZ Product Approval (a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, or a statewide Florida Product Approval approved for use in the HVHZ), be installed to its tested fastening pattern and component list, and pass HVHZ-specific inspections through your municipal building department.
For low-slope commercial and condo roofs that means TPO, modified bitumen, and silicone restoration coatings; for steep-slope and residential it means NOA-approved tile and standing-seam metal. We tear off, re-roof, and remediate roof-related leaks — and because roofing frequently shows up in building recertification and SIRS capital scopes, we scope it as part of the bigger picture, not in isolation.
The right system for the roof you actually have.
TPO, mod-bit & coatings
Single-ply TPO, multi-ply modified bitumen, and silicone restoration coatings for the flat and low-slope decks that cover most Broward condos and commercial buildings — installed with GAF and Polyglass NOA-listed assemblies.
Tile & metal
NOA-approved concrete and clay tile re-roofs and Englert standing-seam metal for steep-slope buildings and luxury residential — engineered for HVHZ uplift and detailed for South Florida’s salt-air exposure.
Leaks & remediation
Roof-related leak diagnosis and remediation, flashing and parapet detailing, and Tremco-based waterproofing tie-ins — so a localized failure gets solved without forcing a full premature replacement.

Broward roofing, answered.
What roofing systems work best for a South Florida condo?
For the flat and low-slope decks on most Broward condos, single-ply TPO and multi-ply modified bitumen are the workhorses — durable, reflective, and well-suited to standing water and intense UV. Where the existing membrane is sound but weathered, a silicone restoration coating can add years without a full tear-off. Steep-slope and luxury buildings often run NOA-approved tile or standing-seam metal. The right answer depends on the deck, the slope, the existing assembly, and the building’s reserve plan — which is why we assess before we recommend.
What does HVHZ / NOA compliance mean for my roof?
Broward County is in Florida’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every roofing component and assembly must have a valid, current Product Approval — a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, or a statewide Florida Product Approval approved for use in the HVHZ — and be installed to that approval’s exact fastening and detailing pattern. Approval is issued per component, and each component must also be listed in the approved assembly: see what HVHZ product approval actually requires. It also means HVHZ-specific permitting and inspections through your municipal building department. Using an unapproved product, or installing an approved one incorrectly, can fail inspection and void warranties. We build to the approval and keep the paperwork clean.
Can a roof be restored instead of replaced?
Often, yes — if the underlying deck and insulation are dry and the membrane has remaining life. A silicone restoration coating system can seal seams and weathered areas, restore reflectivity, and extend service life at a fraction of a full tear-off, frequently with a renewable manufacturer warranty. But restoration is not a cure for a saturated or structurally compromised roof. We core-test and assess moisture first; if the deck is wet, restoration only buys time, and we’ll tell you so.
How does roofing fit into our recertification or reserve study?
The roof is one of the largest single line items in most condo reserve studies, and roof condition is routinely flagged during Broward’s building recertification and SB-4D milestone work. Because we hold roofing in-house alongside general contracting and the structural trades, we can scope a re-roof as part of a coordinated capital program rather than a standalone emergency — aligning timing, permitting, and budget with the rest of the building’s recertification or SIRS scope.
How long does a condo re-roof take?
It varies with roof size, system, deck condition, and weather, but the construction window is rarely the constraint — scoping, permitting, and board approvals usually are. A typical mid-size condo low-slope re-roof runs on the order of a few weeks once permitted, weather permitting, and we phase the work to keep the building occupied and dried-in throughout. Send us the building details and we’ll give you a realistic Broward timeline and budget within one business day.
