This page is for Hollywood homeowners who have a CWS roof system that’s leaking, lifting, or simply at the end of its service life. Whether you have a CWS barrel tile profile, a flat tile system, or a metal profile that’s showing its age, the decision to repair or replace should start with a real diagnosis, not a sales pitch. Dale Kessler and our crew have been working Broward County roofs long enough to know the difference. Call us first.

How CWS Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• CWS barrel tile profiles crack at the ridge line. We see this on older Hollywood homes along Johnson Street and in Emerald Hills, where barrel tiles have taken twenty-plus years of Atlantic sun. The profile itself is sound; the issue is usually underlayment compression at the ridge. The tile develops hairline fractures because the deck shifted slightly. We pull the ridge cap, inspect the underlayment, replace damaged tiles with matching CWS profile pieces, and re-bed the cap before sealing. No shortcuts, no mismatched tile slapped into the line.
• Flat CWS tile systems hold water at the valley intersections. Florida code requires a specific valley flashing detail, and on CWS flat tile installs from the early 2000s, that flashing was sometimes cut too short. Water backs up under the tile edge, works into the deck, and the homeowner sees staining on the soffit before they see anything on the ceiling. Our fix is a full valley re-flash with the correct gauge metal, new underlayment in the valley run, and tile re-set to manufacturer spec.
• CWS metal profiles corrode at the fastener points. This is the failure Hollywood homeowners miss most often. The gasketed fasteners that hold CWS metal panels in place degrade after years of salt air and thermal cycling. The panel isn’t failing; it’s the seal at each fastener. Water enters through the fastener hole and travels along the purlin. We replace fasteners with rated stainless or coated equivalents, re-seat the panels, and torque to the manufacturer’s published spec. If the panel itself is compromised from rust-through, we replace the panel run, not the whole roof.
• Underlayment failure under CWS tile in Hollywood’s wet season. A CWS tile roof is only as good as what’s underneath it. After a decade of Hollywood humidity and afternoon downpours, the original underlayment can delaminate from the deck even when the tile above looks perfect. The first sign is often a musty smell in the attic or mold staining on the decking. When we re-roof, we strip to bare deck, inspect every sheet of plywood or OSB, replace what’s soft, and install a peel-and-stick or double-layer synthetic underlayment before a single CWS tile goes back down.
• CWS edge flashing pulls away at the gable ends. Hollywood’s wind loads, especially on homes near the Intracoastal or in the Driftwood area, work on any roof edge detail. CWS systems use a specific drip edge profile that, over time, can loosen at the gable ends and start flapping in a storm. We re-secure the edge flashing with the correct fasteners, replace the sealant line, and inspect the fascia board behind it for rot before it becomes a structural problem.

Our CWS Roof Replacement & Installation Process

1. 1
   We measure and document the existing roof. Before we touch a single tile or panel, we walk the entire roof surface, check the deck from the attic where possible, and document what’s there. We’re looking for the real failure point, not just the visible symptom. Measure it right, set it square, and the paperwork takes care of itself.
2. 2
   We write a line-item quote on paper. You get the full breakdown: materials, fasteners, underlayment, flashing, disposal, labor. If the CWS tile run is still viable and only a section needs work, we tell you that. If the deck is shot, we tell you that too.
3. 3
   We order the materials. For CWS jobs, we source OEM CWS tiles or panels where the run is still available. Where a profile has been discontinued, we use matched-profile aftermarket pieces that meet Florida product approval standards, and we note the substitution on the quote before you sign.
4. 4
   We tear off and rebuild with care. Tarps go down before any material comes off. We strip to the deck, replace damaged sheathing, lay underlayment rated for the Hollywood climate zone, re-install CWS tile or panels per manufacturer instructions, and finish every flashing detail. Permits are pulled when the scope requires them; inspections pass before we consider the job complete.
5. 5
   We test, walk the roof with you, and leave the site clean. After the last fastener is torqued, we run a water test on the repaired or replaced sections, walk the roof with you if you want, and then clean up every scrap, nail, and wrapper. The Done Right Promise applies from that moment, in writing.

What CWS Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Hollywood

CWS roof work in Hollywood varies based on what’s actually wrong, and anyone quoting you a single number without measuring is guessing. Here’s what we see in the field:

• CWS tile repair (isolated cracks, ridge issues): $450-$1,200 depending on the number of tiles and the ridge length involved.
• CWS valley re-flash or flashing repair: $800-$2,500 depending on valley length and deck condition underneath.
• CWS metal panel fastener replacement (partial run): $600-$1,800 for a typical gable or eave line.
• Full CWS tile roof replacement (Hollywood average home): $18,000-$38,000 including tear-off, deck repair, underlayment, tile, flashing, and permits.
• Full CWS metal roof replacement: $22,000-$45,000 depending on profile, deck condition, and roof complexity.

What moves the price: deck replacement, roof pitch, single-story versus two-story access, and whether the CWS profile is still in active production. Older discontinued CWS lines can cost more to match. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll give you a real number after a real measurement. Estimates are free.
