Fast, Reliable Roof Repair Across Sunrise
Roof repair in Sunrise usually costs between $350 and $1,400 depending on what failed, and most jobs we scope are done in one visit. The real question for Sunrise homeowners isn’t whether a roof can be patched. It’s whether the patch will actually hold up to a Florida summer. We service every Sunrise neighborhood, from Springtree to Welleby, with technicians who know exactly what 1980s-era South Florida construction looks like under the shingles. Call (754) 354-1224 for a free estimate and a written price before any work starts.
Why Mercer Roofing Co Fort Lauderdale Is Sunrise’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
Sunrise homeowners call us because we do something most roofers won’t: we tell you who’s coming before they arrive. Every Mercer technician has a name and a face you’ll see on your phone before the truck pulls up. They badge in at the door with photo ID. That matters to parents home with young kids, to older homeowners, to anyone who doesn’t love the idea of a stranger climbing onto their roof without knowing exactly who they are.
Our Roof Repair team is background-checked and held to the Threshold Verified standard, which covers identity verification, uniform requirements, and the photo-badge protocol on every visit. The company was founded in 2000 as part of the Threshold Group family, and each location is independently owned and operated. For Sunrise specifically, that means a local crew that knows the difference between a Welleby ranch roof from 1984 and a Springtree two-story from 1992, and knows what both are going to need when a storm tears through.
Every repair comes with a written guarantee in your hand. If the fix fails within 365 days, we come back free. That’s the Done Right Promise, and it’s not conditional on weather, materials, or anything other than us standing behind our work. Sunrise homeowners also get a written price before a single nail is driven. No change orders mid-job. No phone call an hour in saying the decking is rotted and the price just doubled. You’ll know the number up front.
Styles & brands we work with
Commercial Roof Repair in Sunrise
Commercial Roof Repair in Sunrise means something different than patching a house. It means flat and low-slope membrane roofs on condo clubhouses, strip-mall units along University Drive, and the office parks near Sawgrass International Corporate Park. These roofs fail differently too. Ponding water after a summer downpour, seam separation from the heat cycle, and punctures from AC units serviced too many times without a roofer checking the penetration. A commercial repair in Sunrise typically runs $600 to $2,800 depending on membrane type and how much of the field has to be opened up.
Membrane and Flashing Repairs on Sunrise Commercial Roofs
Most Sunrise commercial buildings use TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen, and each fails in its own way. TPO seams pull apart in high heat if they were heat-welded poorly. Modified bitumen gets brittle at flashing transitions. We identify the membrane before quoting so the repair matches what’s actually up there, not what’s easiest to patch over.
Storm Damage and Maintenance Scopes
After a named storm, the first call Sunrise property managers make is usually to us, not their insurance company. We inspect, photograph, and document so you have a real scope to file. Then we give you a written price to either repair or reroof, with no pressure and no estimate that’s just a guess.
Roof Leak Repair in Sunrise
Roof Leak Repair in Sunrise usually runs between $350 and $950 for the visible fix, but the real number depends on what’s underneath. Homes in Springtree and Welleby were built in the 1980s with original architectural shingles, and many have no secondary water barrier. Water that’s been crawling under shingles for years rots the decking before you ever see a stain on the ceiling. That’s the hidden cost that turns a $400 patch into a $1,800 repair, and it’s the thing we look for before we quote, not after.
Valley, Flashing, and Penetration Leaks
Most leaks on Sunrise homes aren’t from missing shingles. They’re from failed flashing at pipe boots, vents, chimneys, or the valley where two roof planes meet. On 1980s construction, galvanized flashing has often rusted through at the bend line. We replace with aluminum or copper and reseal every penetration, then test with water before we come down.
Low-Slope and Flat Roof Areas Over Carports
Sunrise has thousands of carport additions with low-slope roofs that were never properly flashed to the main shingle roof. The thermostat on a hot August afternoon makes those transitions move constantly, and the sealant eventually gives. We get called to Welleby ranches for exactly this. We replace the transition flashing, reset pitch where we can, and seal so water stops tracking under the shingles.
Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We work with manufacturer-recognized systems from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, and we keep common repair stock for Sunrise’s dominant shingle profiles on hand. If your home has faded CertainTeed Landmark shingles from a 1990s build, we don’t need to special-order a matching cap for a small valley repair. We stock dimensional profiles and standard colors that match most homes in Southern Sunrise and Welleby. Faster turnaround, less time with a tarp on your roof, and a repair that doesn’t look like a patch job.

AfterCommon Roof Repair Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Granule loss and cracked shingles from UV exposure. Sunrise gets relentless sun eleven months a year. Shingles on south-facing slopes lose granules twice as fast as the rest of the roof, and once the asphalt is exposed, cracks follow within a season or two.
- Rotted decking hidden under old shingles. Humidity in Sunrise doesn’t break for months. Water that got through a failed nail or a lifted shingle in the 80s or 90s has been working on the plywood under there for decades. We always check decking before quoting, and we replace what’s rotted.
- Flashing failures at low-slope carport transitions. This is the Sunrise signature. Carport additions and enclosed porches with low-slope roofs meet the main shingle plane at a bad angle, the flashing was never right, and water gets in every wet season.
- Missing secondary water barrier. Most 1980s Sunrise homes in Springtree and Welleby were built without ice-and-water shield under the shingles. The roof only has to lift once for water to hit the decking. Repairs on these homes often mean upgrading underlayment to current code, not just nailing a shingle back down.
Pricing for Roof Repair in Sunrise, FL
A shingle replacement on a standard Sunrise ranch runs $350 to $600. Flashing repair around a chimney or penetration typically costs $400 to $850. Roof leak repair that requires opening up wet decking and replacing underlayment lands between $800 and $1,800. Flat roof patches over carport additions run $500 to $1,200. Commercial repairs start around $600 and go up depending on membrane and scope. What changes the number: decking condition, whether the home has a secondary water barrier, and whether the repair must be upgraded to meet wind-mitigation code. You’ll get a written line-item price before work starts, every time. Call (754) 354-1224 to schedule your free estimate.

FAQs About Roof Repair in Sunrise
Because most 1980s-era Sunrise homes in Springtree and Welleby have no secondary water barrier, and current Florida Building Code wind-mitigation standards require one. A shingle patch or flashing repair doesn’t change what’s under the shingles. If the inspector sees a single-layer roof with no underlayment upgrade, the home still fails. We scope repairs with that in mind, so you don’t pay twice. Call (754) 354-1224 and ask specifically about wind-mitigation upgrades when you book your estimate.
We start by checking the transition where the low-slope roof meets the main shingle plane, because that’s where nearly every carport leak in Sunrise starts. Then we inspect the membrane on the low-slope section itself. If it’s an older modified bitumen or a re-coated surface that’s cracking, we patch or replace it. If the transition flashing is the culprit, we replace it with new metal and reseal. We’ve done hundreds of these on Welleby and Springtree ranches. Free estimates include a photo report so you can see exactly what we found.
Permitting in Sunrise is city-issued through the Building Department, not the county. That applies whether the repair is in Springtree, Welleby, or anywhere else inside city limits. A minor repair like re-securing shingles or replacing a pipe boot typically doesn’t need a permit. Replacing decking or upgrading underlayment often does. We pull the permits and schedule inspections on any repair that requires them, and we don’t start until the paperwork is right. Call (754) 354-1224 for a free estimate and we’ll tell you exactly what your job needs.
You can repair a few shingles, and a lot of Sunrise homes only need that. But on a 1980s roof with granule loss across the field, we’ll tell you honestly if a patch is a temporary fix. Shingle repair on one slope runs $350 to $600. If the decking underneath is rotted, we replace that section. If the whole roof is at the end of its service life, we’ll give you a written price for a full reroof separately so you can decide with real numbers, not a sales pitch. Estimates are free.
We scope the drive and the access path before we quote. On larger properties east of Sawgrass, it’s common to have a long gravel drive or a tight gate that a standard roofing truck can’t get through. We plan for that. If materials need to be staged off-site or carried in by hand, that’s in your written price before we start, not added later. We also check where the roof access is on detached structures, shops, and outbuildings so the crew can work safely without tearing up your landscaping. Every estimate includes an access note so you know what to expect.
