Project Overview

A complete residential tile roof overhaul executed in Wellington, FL 33449. Tailored to withstand Palm Beach County’s severe weather patterns, intense UV rays, and high wind uplift forces, this project replaced a failing assembly with a premium, storm-rated tile system that elevates the property's architectural aesthetic while offering decades of reliable protection.

The Challenge

Where the roof started

The previous roofing system on this Wellington home had reached the end of its functional life, suffering from cracked tiles and brittle underlayment that threatened structural water leaks during seasonal rainstorms.

Aging underlayment beneath the old tiles had lost its waterproofing seal, risking rot to the roof deck

Strict Palm Beach County high-wind codes required complete deck re-nailing and high-performance adhesives

Intricate roof slopes and valley cuts called for custom metalwork to ensure seamless water shedding

Scope Of Work

What we did

Strip off old roofing materials down to the structural roof deck

Inspect wood decking, replacing compromised plyboard and re-fastening to high-wind code

Apply a continuous layer of high-temperature, self-adhered waterproof underlayment membrane

Install custom-bent metal drip edges, valley pans, step flashings, and wall aprons

Set and secure storm-tested roof tiles using high-bond structural adhesive foam

Materials & System

What was installed

Florida-approved high-profile concrete roof tiles

Self-adhering high-temperature modified-bitumen underlayment barrier

Professional-grade tile adhesive foam system engineered for hurricane wind uplift

Corrosion-resistant metal valley, perimeter drip, and transition flashing components

Project FAQ

Questions about this project

Why choose a tile roof for a residence in Wellington, FL?

Tile roofs offer exceptional resistance to heavy rains, high heat, and rot while providing a high-end, timeless aesthetic that significantly enhances home value in South Florida.

How does adhesive tile installation hold up during a hurricane?

Using high-density tile foam adhesive creates a superior bond compared to standard nails, effectively locking each tile to the deck and distributing wind uplift forces evenly across the entire roof structure.

How long does a tile roof underlayment last?

While tiles themselves can last 50+ years, the secondary waterproof underlayment typically needs replacement every 20 to 30 years depending on material grade and sun exposure.
