Roof Replacement in Wilton Manors, FL

Tile to Metal Roof Conversion

Location: Wilton Manors, FL (Next to Mills Pond Park)

Contractor: Nast Roofing Co.

Project Type: Full Tear-Off, Decking Repair, & Standing Seam Metal Roof Installation

Materials Used: Polyglass Polystick XFR Underlayment, High-Grade White Metal Roofing Panels

Project Overview

When South Florida weather takes a toll on an aging roof, a complete upgrade is the best way to ensure long-term structural integrity and peace of mind. Nast Roofing recently completed a full roof replacement on a residential property in Wilton Manors, Florida, located right next to the popular Mills Pond Park and just minutes from Oakland Park, Wilton Drive, and the Middle River area.

The home previously featured an old, deteriorating concrete tile roof paired with a degraded flat roof section. The homeowners opted for a modern, highly durable white standing seam metal roof conversion to improve energy efficiency, withstand hurricane-force winds, and elevate their home’s curb appeal.

Step-by-Step Project Breakdown

1. Old Tile Roof Tear-Off

Our crew began by stripping away the heavy, weathered concrete tiles and foam adhesive pads from the pitched slope, along with the old degraded bitumen membrane on the flat section.

2. Decking Inspection & Rotten Wood Replacement

Once the old materials were cleared, our team inspected the roof decking and identified significant hidden damage. Years of water intrusion had left sections of the perimeter wood decking rotten, soft, and compromised.

Damage Found: Severe wood rot along the eaves and fascia edges.
Solution: Removed all rotten plywood down to the rafters and replaced it with brand-new, code-compliant ⅝” plywood decking to ensure a solid foundation.

3. High-Performance Waterproofing (Polyglass Underlayment)

To safeguard against South Florida’s heavy rains and storm surges, we installed Polyglass Polystick® XFR self-adhered underlayment across the entire roof deck.

Fire-Resistant & High-Temp: Polystick XFR is specially engineered to withstand extreme heat under metal roofs while offering superior fire and secondary water barrier protection.
Sealed Tight: Premium self-adhering technology ensures zero water penetration, meeting strict Broward County building codes.

4. Custom White Metal Roof Installation

The final phase was the installation of a custom, reflective white metal roof.

Energy Savings: The solar-reflective bright white finish reflects UV rays, significantly reducing cooling costs during hot Florida summers.
Clean & Modern Aesthetic: Precise ridge cap flashing, custom trim around valleys, and clean standing seam lines completely transformed the home's look.
Maximum Durability: Metal roofing provides exceptional wind resistance, essential for homes in Wilton Manors and Greater Fort Lauderdale.
