Sunrise stretches from older subdivisions like Sunrise Lakes and Springtree near University Drive out to newer development along Flamingo Road and I-75, so the roofing here spans everything from 1970s original tile and shingle to large commercial flat roofs around Sawgrass Mills and the arena district. It's the kind of city where we might quote a single-family re-roof off Oakland Park Boulevard and a warehouse roof off Sunset Strip in the same week.
We run crews out to Sunrise regularly for both residential and commercial work. Call (831) 666-1600 for a free drone inspection.
Sunrise is a longer drive from Boca Raton than our coastal service areas — plan on about 38-40 minutes via I-95 and the Sawgrass Expressway.
Sunrise roofs & the risks they face
Original concrete tile from Sunrise's 1970s and 80s subdivisions is reaching the point where underlayment fails well before the tile itself cracks, a common pattern in planned communities built in that era across western Broward. Commercial flat roofs near Sawgrass Mills and along the I-595/I-75 corridor face a different problem: large membrane areas exposed to full sun with minimal shade, which accelerates UV breakdown on TPO and modified-bitumen systems that aren't on a regular maintenance plan.
Roofing across Sunrise
We've re-roofed single-family homes in Sunrise Lakes and Springtree and handled commercial flat-roof replacement and maintenance for retail and warehouse buildings near Sawgrass Mills. Every project, residential or commercial, meets Broward's HVHZ requirements and comes with the same drone photo report and written scope we provide in Boca Raton.
Sunrise's roofing profile splits almost exactly along its east-west layout. Older subdivisions like Sunrise Lakes and Springtree near University Drive were built through the 1970s and 80s with original concrete tile on standard wood-truss construction, typical of that era's planned communities across western Broward. Development along Flamingo Road and I-75 toward the western edge of the city is newer, mixing tile with some metal roofing on larger custom lots.
The commercial side is dominated by the Sawgrass Mills and arena district, where big-box retail and warehouse roofs run TPO or modified-bitumen membrane across tens of thousands of square feet with almost no shade cover. A Sunrise Lakes homeowner who scheduled a drone inspection after noticing granule loss in the gutters learned the underlayment beneath otherwise intact tile had already failed in several sections — a common finding on original 1970s-80s tile once it passes the 40-year mark, even when the tile itself still looks fine from the ground.
Sunrise's arena district and Sawgrass Mills corridor bring occasional large-scale event traffic that we plan deliveries and crane access around, especially near the arena during major concerts or sporting events. On the residential side, homes in the Sunset Strip area closer to Oakland Park Boulevard mix original 1970s shingle with later tile upgrades on the same block, so it's common to quote two completely different roofing systems for adjacent houses in a single afternoon.

Common roof problems we fix in Sunrise
Failed Underlayment Under Intact-Looking Tile
Original 1970s-80s concrete tile in Sunrise Lakes and Springtree often sits on underlayment that's already failed, even while the tile itself still looks fine from the ground.
UV Breakdown on Unshaded Commercial Membrane
Large TPO and modified-bitumen roofs near Sawgrass Mills and the I-595/I-75 corridor run tens of thousands of square feet with almost no shade, accelerating membrane breakdown without a regular maintenance plan.
Event-Traffic Access Conflicts Near the Arena
Roofing deliveries and crane access near Amerant Bank Arena and Sawgrass Mills need to work around major concerts and sporting events that bring large-scale traffic to the corridor.
Block-by-Block Roof System Mismatches
Sunset Strip-area homes mix original 1970s shingle with later tile upgrades on the same block, so adjacent houses often need completely different roofing systems quoted in a single visit.
Roofing permits & code in Sunrise, Broward County
Sunrise permits roofing work through its own building department, and because the city sits fully within Broward's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, both residential and commercial replacements need Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or equivalent HVHZ product approval — a requirement that applies equally to a Sunrise Lakes tile re-roof and a Sawgrass Mills warehouse membrane.
With so much of Sunrise's tile stock now past the 40-year mark, Florida's 25% roof rule matters here: once repair or underlayment work on a section crosses that threshold within 12 months, the section generally has to meet current code. Large commercial properties near Sawgrass Mills also coordinate permitting and staging around event traffic in the arena district. We pull the permit and manage that paperwork on every Sunrise job, residential or commercial.

Why Sunrise residents choose Mighty Dog Roofing
Residential and Commercial Range
We quote everything from a single-family re-roof off Oakland Park Boulevard to a warehouse roof off Sunset Strip in the same week, and we run crews out to Sunrise for both regularly.
Honest Tile Assessment
On Sunrise's original 1970s-80s tile, we check underlayment condition separately from the tile itself, since failed underlayment under intact-looking tile is one of the most common findings we bring to homeowners here.
Commercial Maintenance Plans
For large-membrane commercial roofs near Sawgrass Mills, we offer maintenance plans rather than one-time repairs, since UV breakdown on unshaded TPO accelerates without regular attention.
