Inside a Hurricane-Rated Roof System
A roof that survives a South Florida hurricane is a system, not a surface. Every layer below has a job — and skipping any one of them is where storm damage starts.
Architectural Shingle System — The affordable hurricane-rated workhorse of South Florida roofing.
Every layer in the shingle system
Roof Deck
Structural plywood sheathing, re-nailed with 8d ring-shank nails at 6-inch spacing per Florida Building Code retrofit requirements.
Secondary Water Barrier (Peel-and-Stick)
Self-adhering membrane sealed directly to the deck so your home stays dry even if the storm strips the outer roofing away.
Synthetic Underlayment
High-strength moisture barrier layered over the sealed deck — a second line of defense against wind-driven rain.
Drip Edge
Corrosion-resistant metal edging that locks down the roof perimeter — the first place hurricane winds attack.
Architectural Shingles
Class 4 impact-resistant architectural shingles, each fastened with six nails — the Florida high-wind standard.
Ridge Vent & Cap
TAS 100(A)-tested ridge ventilation capped with matching shingles for a sealed, breathable peak.
The details that make it hurricane-rated
Hurricane Clips & Straps
Galvanized steel straps tie the roof structure to your walls so the whole assembly resists uplift as one unit. They're a key item on Florida's wind mitigation inspection form — and one of the fastest ways to earn insurance premium discounts.
Six-Nail High-Wind Pattern
Every shingle gets six nails — the enhanced fastening pattern Florida Building Code requires in high-wind zones, not the four-nail minimum used elsewhere in the country. It's a small detail that roughly doubles a shingle's resistance to blow-off.
Sealed Roof Deck
We re-nail the deck with ring-shank nails at 6-inch spacing and seal it with a peel-and-stick membrane, as required by Florida Building Code re-roofing rules. Insurance studies show a sealed deck can prevent up to 95% of the water intrusion that follows roof-covering loss.
High-Wind Ridge Vent
Ventilation keeps your attic cooler and your energy bills lower — but in South Florida the vent itself must survive the storm. We install ridge vents tested to Miami-Dade TAS 100(A) for wind-driven rain resistance.
Reinforced Drip Edge
Roof failures start at the edges, so Florida Building Code requires metal drip edge fastened at close intervals — just 4 inches on center in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Ours is corrosion-resistant and lapped to shed water away from your fascia.
