Begin with what matters

Your home.
Your next chapter.

You do not have to arrive knowing the answer.
Start with what brought you here.

Plan a new roof

A roof that belongs to your home.

Replacing a roof is an opportunity to consider the whole system: its appearance, the layers beneath, and how it handles your property’s exposure. Start with an assessment, then compare a clearly specified scope.

Permitting, installation and closeout

Fix a roof problem

Understand the problem before replacing the roof.

A ceiling stain, cracked tile or open seam does not automatically mean a new roof. Perkins investigates the source and surrounding condition to help determine whether a focused repair makes sense.

Know its condition

Make your next decision with better information.

An inspection can help with purchase planning, maintenance priorities, storm concerns or insurer-requested documentation. The scope and access determine what can be assessed; hidden layers may require further investigation.

Care for my roof

Look after the roof you already have.

Routine attention can help identify developing issues. Build a maintenance plan around the system, its exposure, drainage and condition—not a one-size-fits-all promise of extra years.

Four families of roofing. Different considerations.
One home to get right.

Tile roofing

Coastal character. Considered from every angle.

Concrete and clay tile complement Mediterranean, coastal and estate architecture. Profile and color shape the appearance; the underlayment, attachment, flashing and drainage shape the system underneath.

What to consider

Review the roof structure and system weight
Compare profiles against the home’s architecture
Specify the underlayment and attachment method

Metal roofing

Clean lines. Details made for the setting.

Standing-seam metal gives a home a crisp architectural profile. Coastal specification matters: metal type, protective finish, fasteners and exposure limitations must work together for the property.

What to consider

Confirm material and finish for salt-air exposure
Review seams, penetrations and concealed attachments
Check written manufacturer warranty limitations

Shingle roofing

A familiar finish. A carefully specified system.

Architectural shingles can be a practical fit for many South Florida homes. Product approval, roof geometry, deck condition and installation details belong in the decision alongside appearance and budget.

What to consider

Confirm the product approval for the location
Review fastening, starter courses and transitions

Low-slope roofing

A modern roofline. A plan for every drop.

Modern homes, additions and covered areas often include low-slope roof sections. Membrane selection, drainage, transitions and maintenance deserve special attention. Fluid-applied options depend on the existing system and its condition.

What to consider

Assess slope, drainage and water discharge
Specify seams, parapets and termination details
Confirm whether a coating or membrane is appropriate

Six connected components.

Look beyond
the finish.

See the materials and details behind a residential roof. Select a component to understand its job, why it matters and what to confirm in your proposal.

Material & purpose

Roof deck

What it does: The structural sheathing—commonly plywood or OSB—supports the roofing assembly and provides a base for its attachment to the building.
Why it matters: Deteriorated panels or inadequate fastening can weaken the support for the roof above. Deck condition and attachment need attention before they are covered by new roofing.
Ask your roofer: How will the deck be inspected, damaged panels replaced and fastening addressed? Ask how concealed repairs are priced and approved.

Material & purpose

Secondary water barrier

What it does: A sealed-deck treatment provides backup water protection if the outer roofing is damaged. Depending on the approved assembly, it may use sealed deck joints or a fully adhered membrane.
Why it matters: Wind-driven rain can enter through exposed deck joints. Sealing those paths helps limit water intrusion if the covering is lost; it does not guarantee a dry home in every storm.
Ask your roofer: Which sealed-deck method is specified? A membrane may perform both this function and the underlayment function—not every roof needs two separate sheets.

Material & purpose

Underlayment

What it does: The protective layer beneath the roof covering sheds water toward the eaves and integrates with flashing and roof penetrations.
Why it matters: Water can get beneath tile, metal or shingles. Compatible material, sound laps and correctly integrated details help keep that water away from the deck.
Ask your roofer: Which underlayment is approved for the selected covering, slope and exposure? Confirm its compatibility with the rest of the assembly.

Material & purpose

Flashing

What it does: Formed metal or other specified flashing protects edges, valleys, walls, chimneys and openings where roofing changes direction or meets another surface.
Why it matters: These junctions interrupt the roof’s water-shedding surface. Properly integrated flashing directs runoff away from vulnerable connections; sealant alone is not a substitute for the detail.
Ask your roofer: Which flashings will be replaced or retained? Ask how the underlayment, wall connections, pipe penetrations and drainage edges will be integrated.

Material & purpose

Roof covering

What it does: Tile, metal, shingles or a low-slope roofing system form the exposed weather surface and define the roof’s appearance.
Why it matters: This is the first surface exposed to sun, rain and wind. The product and attachment method must suit the roof geometry, supporting structure and local exposure—not just its color.
Ask your roofer: Review the specific product, attachment, finish and written warranty limitations. Confirm the complete system rather than choosing the covering alone.

An off-ridge exhaust vent and a ridge vent along the peak of an architectural shingle roof. — What you’re seeingAn off-ridge exhaust vent and a ridge vent are the visible exhaust components on this shingle roof. The intake path and complete attic design are not visible here.

Material & purpose

Ventilation

What it does: In a vented attic, intake and exhaust openings provide an air path to help manage accumulated heat and moisture beneath the roof.
Why it matters: Blocked or poorly coordinated vents can limit airflow. Ventilation works with insulation and air sealing; it is not a replacement for fixing leaks or a promise of a cooler home.
Ask your roofer: Is the attic vented or designed as an unvented assembly? Confirm the intended air path and vent details. Do not add vents to an unvented design without review.

The experience matters

A better-planned project.
A better-informed owner.

Estate, waterfront or everyday family home: the details around the work deserve attention, too.

Understand the home

Review its condition, architecture and exposure. Discuss your goals, timing, access and whether inspection, repair or replacement is the right starting point.

Specify the whole roof

Compare materials, samples, deck work, underlayment, flashing and ventilation. Get the scope, exclusions and process for concealed damage in writing.

Plan the installation

Coordinate permitting, material sourcing and deliveries. Discuss pool and landscaping protection, staging, cleanup, weather and communication with your household or estate manager.

Close out with clarity

Review the completed scope, required inspections and documentation. Keep the written warranty terms and maintenance recommendations with your home records.

What residential roofing services does Perkins provide?

Perkins provides inspections, repairs, maintenance, replacements and re-roofing for South Florida homes. Systems include tile, metal, shingle, flat and low-slope roofing, with gutters, ventilation and custom sheet metal as part of the broader roof system.

Do you work on luxury, waterfront and estate homes?

Yes. Perkins’ original residential service offering includes luxury homes, waterfront properties, estates, custom-designed and complex-profile homes, and properties coordinated through estate managers. Access, landscaping, communication and architectural fit should be discussed in the project plan.

What is the best roof for my South Florida home?

There is no single best roof for every home. Architecture, structural capacity, roof slope, coastal exposure, product approval, budget and ownership plans all matter. Compare tile, metal, shingle and low-slope options with the complete assembly and written warranty—not appearance alone.

Can a leak be repaired instead of replacing the roof?

A localized problem may be suitable for repair. Widespread deterioration or damage may call for a larger scope. An assessment of the source, surrounding materials and overall condition helps establish the practical next step; one symptom alone is not a diagnosis.

Does Perkins handle roof replacement permitting?

Perkins’ residential replacement service includes permitting and coordination of required inspections. Applicable approvals and installation requirements depend on the location, roof system and project scope. Confirm responsibilities and final documentation in the written proposal.

How often should I have my roof inspected?

The original Perkins guidance recommends inspections before and after hurricane season, and additional attention after significant storms, new leaks or drainage concerns. Ask for a schedule suited to your roof’s condition, materials and any manufacturer or insurer requirements.

What affects the price of a residential roof?

Roof area, pitch, complexity, access, material selection, deck condition, details and required scope all influence the price. Ask how unforeseen deck repairs, disposal, permits and exclusions are handled. An online planning estimate is not a final site-specific quote.

What should I prepare before a re-roof?

Discuss parking, deliveries, landscaping, pool protection, pets, attic storage and working-from-home arrangements. Roofing can create noise, vibration, dust and restricted access. Agree on site protection, communication and weather contingencies before work starts.

How long will the roof last, and what does the warranty cover?

Service life varies with the product, assembly, exposure, workmanship and maintenance. Workmanship and manufacturer coverage are different. Request written terms, exclusions, coastal limitations, maintenance duties and transferability for the specific system; no generic lifespan or warranty applies to every roof.

Can roofing work reduce my insurance premium?

Qualifying improvements and documentation may affect available mitigation credits, but eligibility and pricing are determined by the insurer. Do not assume a roof replacement guarantees a discount, coverage or renewal. Ask the carrier what documentation it requires.
