Roofing, window replacement, and exterior construction in Lighthouse Point typically run $400-$40,000 depending on scope, with most permitted projects requiring HVHZ-rated materials and marine-grade fasteners due to the city’s coastal canal environment. We’re Rowan Construction Group, and our crews work the Lighthouse Point market from our Miami office, carrying written prices to every estimate and documenting every visit with a photo record. Call (754) 714-6540 to schedule your free estimate.
Why Lighthouse Point Homes Are Different
Lighthouse Point was purpose-built in the late 1950s and 1960s as a planned canal community, and today nearly every one of its roughly 3,800 single-family lots is either directly on a navigable canal or within steps of one. This means construction here - even interior renovations - almost always intersects with seawall condition, flood-zone elevation requirements, and marine-grade material specifications in a way that would not apply to an inland Broward city like Margate or Tamarac.
The overwhelming majority of the housing stock is original CBS construction from the 1958-1975 development era, built to looser codes than today’s standards. Tear-down and rebuild projects on premium waterfront lots are now common, as buyers demolish undersized mid-century homes to construct larger luxury residences that must meet current HVHZ standards on the same tight, seawall-bounded lots. Many of the original poured-concrete seawalls installed during the 1960s buildout are past their 50-year service life, and Broward County inspectors routinely flag failing seawalls when homeowners pull permits for unrelated renovations. That means a contractor quoting a kitchen remodel or roof replacement in Lighthouse Point needs to know how to spot seawall distress before the permit application goes in, or the project scope can expand unexpectedly.
As part of Broward County, all Lighthouse Point construction falls under Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone code - the most stringent wind-resistance standard in the country - requiring impact-rated openings and specific roof-attachment methods on every permitted project. The dense canal grid also means persistent salt-air exposure accelerates corrosion of fasteners, reinforcing steel, and flashing, shortening the effective lifespan of standard-grade materials compared to even a few miles inland.
Our Main Lighthouse Point Services
Most Lighthouse Point homeowners who call us start with interior renovations on original 1960s-era homes or with expanding living space on waterfront lots. Here’s what those projects involve in this market.
Kitchen Remodeling in Lighthouse Point
Kitchen remodels in Lighthouse Point often begin with gutting original 1960s layouts - galley kitchens with minimal counter space and no island - and reworking plumbing and electrical within CBS walls that cannot be moved without structural review. We see frequent seawall-related delays when inspectors flag drainage or elevation issues during the permit process, so our quotes include time for potential revisions. Kitchen Remodeling in Lighthouse Point covers full-gut renovations, cabinet and countertop replacement, and island additions with flat written pricing before work starts.
Bathroom Remodeling in Lighthouse Point
Bathroom work in Lighthouse Point means dealing with original cast-iron or copper plumbing, single-pane windows that must be replaced with impact-rated units, and moisture intrusion in CBS walls from decades of salt-air exposure. We document substrate condition with photos before demolition so homeowners see what the wall cavity actually contains. Bathroom Remodeling in Lighthouse Point includes walk-in showers, tub-to-shower conversions, and full bath renovations with the Haven Standard’s written price guarantee.
Home Additions & ADU in Lighthouse Point
Additions and ADUs in Lighthouse Point face the tightest constraints of any project type: FEMA flood-zone elevation requirements, seawall setbacks, and HVHZ structural standards all apply simultaneously. We have worked additions on canal lots where the buildable footprint was determined by seawall location more than by the property line. Home Additions & ADU in Lighthouse Point covers second-story additions, garage conversions, and detached ADUs with signed change orders for every scope revision.

AfterRoofing in Lighthouse Point
Roofing in Lighthouse Point means working on original 1960s-era homes with 2×4 or 2×6 rafter systems, minimal insulation by current standards, and fastener corrosion from salt air that can reduce a standard nail’s effective life by half compared to inland Broward. Every permitted roof project here must meet HVHZ attachment standards, which typically means 8d ring-shank nails at 6-inch centers on the deck and specific clip patterns at the rake and eave. We handle Roofing across South Florida, and Lighthouse Point’s combination of aging stock, marine exposure, and strict code makes it one of the markets where material specification matters most.
Roof Repair
Signs you need it
Water stains on ceiling drywall, granules collecting in gutters, or lifted shingle tabs after a named storm are the most common calls we get from Lighthouse Point’s original ranch and mid-century homes.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Roof repair in Lighthouse Point typically runs $400-$1,800 depending on whether we’re replacing a few wind-damaged shingles, resealing vent penetrations, or addressing localized deck rot.
How we do it
We photograph the full roof surface from a ladder or drone, mark every defect with GPS-tagged images, write a scope that specifies exact repair locations and materials, and complete the work with marine-grade fasteners rated for salt-air exposure.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Signs you need it
A roof exceeding 20 years on a Lighthouse Point home with original construction, multiple repair layers, or visible sagging in the soffit line indicates the decking or structure needs full replacement.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Roof replacement in Lighthouse Point typically runs $8,000-$20,000 for standard asphalt shingle on the original 1,200-2,400 square foot homes that dominate this market.
How we do it
We strip to bare deck, replace compromised plywood with CDX rated for the application, install synthetic underlayment, and fasten new shingles with HVHZ-specified ring-shank nails at code-required spacing, with every layer photographed.
What Roofing Costs in Lighthouse Point
| Item | Typical range in Lighthouse Point |
|---|---|
| Roof Repair | $400 - $1,800 |
| Roof Replacement | $8,000 - $20,000 |
| Metal Roof Installation | $15,000 - $40,000 |
How long does a roof replacement take in Lighthouse Point?
Most residential roof replacements in Lighthouse Point take 2-4 business days once materials arrive, with an additional 1-2 weeks for permit approval through Broward County. Call (754) 714-6540 and we’ll confirm current permit timelines with your specific address.
Will my roof replacement trigger a seawall inspection?
Not directly, but Broward County inspectors walking the property for roof access may note seawall distress and flag it for separate review, which is why we assess seawall condition during our initial site visit and photo document it. Call (754) 714-6540 for a free estimate that includes this review.
Windows & Doors in Lighthouse Point
Window and door replacement in Lighthouse Point is not a cosmetic upgrade on original 1960s homes - it’s a code-mandated structural change, because every new opening in this HVHZ zone must be impact-rated or protected with approved shutters. The original single-pane aluminum windows in most Lighthouse Point homes provide neither impact resistance nor meaningful insulation, and their frames often show corrosion from salt air that isn’t visible until the sash is removed. We install Windows & Doors throughout South Florida, and Lighthouse Point’s combination of strict code, marine corrosion, and tight lot lines makes precision measurement and specification particularly important here.
Window Replacement
Signs you need it
Condensation between double-pane units that have failed, corroded aluminum frames that no longer seal properly, or windows that rattle in moderate winds indicate the original unit is past service life.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Window replacement in Lighthouse Point typically runs $4,500-$15,000 for a full-home package on the original 1,500-2,500 square foot homes common in this market.
How we do it
We measure each opening to 1/8-inch tolerance, specify impact-rated vinyl or aluminum units with laminated glass, and install with HVHZ-approved anchoring patterns through the frame into the CBS substrate, photographing every fastener location.
Impact Windows & Doors
Signs you need it
New construction, additions, or any window replacement in Lighthouse Point requires impact-rated products by code, and many homeowners upgrading from shutter-protected originals choose full impact glazing for the elimination of annual shutter installation.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Impact window installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs $8,000-$25,000 for a complete home package, with pricing varying significantly by frame material and glass specification.
How we do it
We verify the HVHZ rating on every unit with the manufacturer’s Miami-Dade NOA documentation, install with structural silicone and mechanical fasteners per the approved assembly, and provide the customer with a copy of the NOA for their permit file.
What Windows & Doors Costs in Lighthouse Point
| Item | Typical range in Lighthouse Point |
|---|---|
| Window Replacement | $4,500 - $15,000 |
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000 - $25,000 |
Do all new windows in Lighthouse Point need to be impact-rated?
Yes, any window replacement in Lighthouse Point’s HVHZ zone requires impact-resistant glazing or approved shutter protection, and we quote only impact-rated units for replacement work to eliminate the shutter requirement. Call (754) 714-6540 for a written price on your specific openings.
Can you match the style of my 1960s home with modern impact windows?
Yes, several manufacturers offer impact-rated single-hung and horizontal-roller profiles that replicate the sight lines of original 1960s aluminum windows while meeting current HVHZ standards. Call (754) 714-6540 and we’ll bring sample profiles to your estimate.
Fence Installation in Lighthouse Point
Fence installation in Lighthouse Point operates under constraints that don’t exist inland: seawall setbacks often determine the actual buildable line more than the surveyed property boundary, and the city’s canal grid means every fence must account for potential flood-zone elevation and marine-grade fastener requirements. Original 1960s homes here rarely had perimeter fencing, so most installations are new construction for privacy or pool enclosure on lots where the usable yard is narrower than it appears on the plat. We handle Fence Installation across Broward, and Lighthouse Point’s tight waterfront lots require precise survey review before we quote any linear footage.
Vinyl Fence
Signs you need it
Homeowners with pools needing code-compliant enclosure, or those seeking privacy on narrow canal lots where wood would require too much maintenance, typically choose vinyl for its salt-air resistance.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Vinyl fence installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs $3,500-$9,000 for standard 6-foot privacy on the 150-250 linear foot lots common in this market.
How we do it
We verify the survey against visible seawall and utility locations, set posts in concrete at 6-foot centers with marine-grade stainless hardware, and install panels with expansion gaps for thermal movement in direct sun.
Aluminum Fence
Signs you need it
Pool enclosures, decorative front-yard fencing, or any application where visibility through the fence is desired while maintaining code-compliant barrier protection.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Aluminum fence installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs $4,000-$10,000 depending on height, picket style, and whether the application requires pool-grade self-closing gates.
How we do it
We specify powder-coated aluminum with a coastal-grade finish warranty, set posts in concrete with stainless brackets, and install gates with MagnaLatch or equivalent self-closing hardware for pool compliance.
What Fence Installation Costs in Lighthouse Point
| Item | Typical range in Lighthouse Point |
|---|---|
| Vinyl Fence Installation | $3,500 - $9,000 |
| Aluminum Fence Installation | $4,000 - $10,000 |
Do I need a survey before fencing in Lighthouse Point?
We require a current survey for every Lighthouse Point fence quote because seawall setbacks and utility easements frequently reduce the buildable line below the apparent property boundary, and we write our price only after confirming actual available footage. Call (754) 714-6540 to schedule a site review with your survey in hand.
Will salt air damage my fence in Lighthouse Point?
Standard steel fasteners and uncoated wood will corrode or rot within 3-5 years in Lighthouse Point’s salt-air environment, which is why we specify marine-grade stainless hardware and either vinyl, aluminum, or pressure-treated wood with proper drainage gaps. Call (754) 714-6540 for material specifications on your specific application.
Driveway & Pavers in Lighthouse Point
Driveway and paver work in Lighthouse Point faces the same seawall and setback constraints as fencing, with the added complication that many original 1960s driveways were poured directly against aging seawalls with no expansion joint, leading to cracking and spalling as the seawall shifts. The city’s canal grid also means driveway drainage must be carefully planned to avoid directing water toward seawalls or neighboring properties on these tight lots. We install Driveway & Pavers throughout coastal Broward, and Lighthouse Point’s combination of original thin concrete, marine subgrade conditions, and strict drainage requirements makes subgrade preparation the most critical phase of every job.
Paver Driveways
Signs you need it
Cracked or settled concrete that has shifted with the seawall, homeowners seeking permeable surfacing to manage drainage on tight canal lots, or those updating curb appeal for resale on premium waterfront properties.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Paver driveway installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs $7,000-$18,000 for the standard 2-3 car widths on original 1960s lots, with pricing varying by paver species and base depth requirements.
How we do it
We excavate to 8-10 inches of compacted limerock base where soil conditions allow, install bedding sand and Belgard or Techo-Bloc pavers in the specified pattern, and cut edge restraints with marine-grade spikes.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Signs you need it
Original 1960s driveways with widespread cracking, spalling surface, or settlement toward the seawall indicate the subgrade or the seawall itself has moved and the concrete needs full replacement.
What it costs in Lighthouse Point
Concrete driveway installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs $4,500-$12,000 for standard residential replacement, with thicker pours and reinforcement required where seawall proximity creates ongoing settlement risk.
How we do it
We remove existing concrete to subgrade, assess and document seawall condition with photos, install compacted base and #4 rebar or fiber mesh as specified, and pour with control joints aligned to minimize cracking.
What Driveway & Pavers Costs in Lighthouse Point
| Item | Typical range in Lighthouse Point |
|---|---|
| Paver Driveway Installation | $7,000 - $18,000 |
| Concrete Driveway Installation | $4,500 - $12,000 |
| Driveway Replacement | $5,000 - $14,000 |
Will my driveway replacement damage my seawall?
We assess seawall condition before excavating any driveway in Lighthouse Point, and if the seawall is failing we document it with photos and recommend addressing it first, because new concrete or pavers on a moving seawall will crack again within two years. Call (754) 714-6540 for a site review that includes this assessment.
How long does a paver driveway last in Lighthouse Point?
A properly installed paver driveway on compacted base in Lighthouse Point typically lasts 25-30 years with periodic joint sand replenishment, though salt-air exposure may require more frequent sealer application than inland installations. Call (754) 714-6540 for maintenance specifications with your quote.
