AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Miami
Roof replacement in Miami typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 for a full tear-off and new system, depending on square footage, slope, and whether you choose shingle, tile, or metal. Most homes in Miami-Dade County need permits, wind-load documentation, and materials rated for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which is stricter here than anywhere else in the country. We’ve been replacing roofs across Miami since our founding in 2011, and Ed Winslow, our owner, is personally accountable for every job we complete. Call (727) 620-6983 and you’ll reach a live person, not a voicemail loop.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Miami’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and on every roof we install across Miami. That’s not marketing language. It means when your home in Kendall, Little Havana, or Shenandoah gets a new roof, the owner of the company is the one answering for the work. We’ve been locally owned and owner-operated since 2011, with a published address and license number, serving homeowners from Brickell high-rises to 1950s CBS ranches in Westchester.
Miami homeowners call us because we do what big box installers won’t. We pull permits. We document every wind mitigation feature so your Citizens Insurance credits actually apply. We show up with background-checked, uniformed technicians, not whoever a subcontractor decides to send. And when something isn’t done right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation team knows what this market demands: salt air from Biscayne Bay eating through substandard fasteners, afternoon thunderstorms exposing weak flashing, and hurricanes testing every seal. We don’t guess at what Miami’s wind zone requires. We document it.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Miami
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural shingle roofs are common on Miami’s sprawling 1960s and 1970s CBS ranch homes, from Hialeah to Kendall. We spec wind-rated shingles installed to meet Miami-Dade HVHZ uplift requirements, which means upgraded underlayment, sealed decking, and ring-shank nails at the right spacing. A typical shingle roof replacement in Miami runs $9,000 to $16,000 for a 1,500 to 2,200 square foot home. The salt air near Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic means we recommend stainless or copper flashing rather than galvanized, which corrodes visibly within a decade in coastal Miami.
Tile Roof Replacement
Barrel tile and flat concrete tile dominate Miami’s Mediterranean-style homes in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and Pinecrest. Tile roofs here carry a different weight load than shingle, and many older Miami homes built in the 1950s through 1980s have decking that was never engineered for modern HVHZ uplift. A full tile roof replacement in Miami runs $18,000 to $35,000 depending on whether we need to replace battens, add secondary water barriers, and upgrade attachment fasteners to meet current code. We don’t shortcut this. A cheap quote that reuses old attachment hardware is a failed inspection waiting to happen.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing seam and stone-coated metal roofing is gaining ground in Miami for a simple reason: it handles hurricane wind loads better than almost anything else, and it doesn’t care about salt air. For homes along the bay in Coconut Grove or facing the Atlantic in Miami Beach, a metal roof can mean visible durability where other materials fail. Metal roof installation in Miami typically runs $16,000 to $30,000 for a full replacement. We specify marine-grade fasteners and clips rated for Miami-Dade’s wind pressures, not the inland-grade hardware some out-of-town crews bring to a bayfront job.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Replacement
Miami’s mid-century modern homes and many commercial-style residential structures in the Design District, Wynwood, and along US-1 have flat or low-slope roofs that demand a different system entirely. We install TPO, modified bitumen, and PVC systems with proper tapered insulation and drainage. A flat roof replacement in Miami runs $10,000 to $22,000. Low-slope work is where ponding water becomes a structural problem fast in Miami’s rainy season, and a qualified roofer who understands local drainage codes matters more than brand name.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami
We’re not tied to one manufacturer, which means we spec what each Miami home actually needs. For impact-rated roof-adjacent openings and skylights, we source PGT and CGI products that carry Miami-Dade NOA paperwork, and for exterior doors that tie into roof envelope work, Therma-Tru is our go-to. ViewLux rounds out our premium options for custom openings. Because we stock common components locally and coordinate dispatch from our South FL office, Miami customers don’t wait on parts that a distributor has to special-order from out of state. A roof replacement often means new flashing, vents, and sometimes new openings, and we install the full envelope, not just the decking.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Miami Homes
- Non-compliant installation without NOA documentation. Miami-Dade County requires every replacement opening to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, and roofs must meet HVHZ uplift standards. We see roofs installed by out-of-county crews who didn’t pull permits, didn’t document wind mitigation, and left the homeowner holding an upgrade that won’t qualify for insurance credits.
- Corrosion from salt air near Biscayne Bay. In Miami communities like Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, and Edgewater, standard galvanized flashing and fasteners can show rust within five to ten years. Marine-grade stainless is not optional here, but cheap quotes often omit it entirely.
- Failed decking and dry rot under old tile. Many 1950s through 1970s Miami homes have original roof decking that was never built for modern wind-load attachment. Once we strip the old system, we frequently find soft spots that must be replaced before the new roof goes down. That’s an engineered change order on a big box quote; on ours, it’s part of the plan.
- Improper underlayment for HVHZ conditions. Miami’s code demands sealed roof decking and upgraded underlayment before the aesthetic layer goes on. We see handyman jobs that skip the secondary water barrier, which means the roof leaks during a sideways-driving hurricane rain even if the shingles hold.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami, FL
Here’s what Miami homeowners should expect to pay for a full replacement. A shingle roof on a typical 1,800 square foot Miami CBS ranch runs $9,000 to $16,000. Tile runs $18,000 to $35,000. Metal runs $16,000 to $30,000. Flat or low-slope runs $10,000 to $22,000. What moves the number: square footage, pitch, whether decking needs replacement, whether you’re in a coastal wind zone that demands upgraded attachments, and which material you choose. A roof facing Biscayne Bay in Coconut Grove will spec differently than an inland Hialeah home, and a good quote reflects that. Call (727) 620-6983 for a free in-home measure and a written, line-item quote. No vague numbers, no change orders after the fact.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Miami
Roof replacement costs in Miami break down by material and scope, and the ranges above assume a licensed, permitted, code-compliant install, which is the only kind we do. Impact-rated openings adjacent to the roof, like skylights or dormer windows, generally run $800 to $1,500 per opening installed, with large or custom openings at $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages that combine a new roof with impact-rated windows and doors can run $8,000 to $25,000 or more depending on opening count. In Miami, floor height matters too: a second-story roof on a two-story Pinecrest home costs more to access and protect than a single-story Miami ranch. We don’t charge a trip fee inside our home county, so the measure is free regardless of where in Miami you are.
When you see a Miami roof quote far below these ranges, ask what’s missing. Usually it’s the permit, the NOA documentation, the marine-grade hardware, or the engineered wind-load attachment. Those aren’t add-ons in Miami. They’re the minimum.
Florida Pays You Back
Miami homeowners can tap several incentive programs when they replace a roof and upgrade openings at the same time. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 in qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including roof-to-deck attachment, secondary water barriers, and impact-rated openings. Florida exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from state sales tax, which is real money on a $15,000 roof-and-opening package. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying units, and after a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75 to $150), many Miami homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Programs and carriers set the final numbers, but we document everything so you can claim what you’re owed.
One thing we tell every Miami homeowner weighing a roof replacement: impact-rated openings are permanent protection. You don’t haul panels out of a shed at 2 a.m. before a storm. The windows and doors are always protecting the envelope, and the roof tie-in is part of that system.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami
A Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance is a certification that a product has been tested and approved for use in Florida’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and any opening or roof-to-deck system on a Miami replacement must carry one. It’s stricter than anything Broward or Palm Beach require. Roofs in Miami must meet HVHZ uplift standards, and products without current NOA paperwork fail inspection. Call (727) 620-6983 and we’ll confirm your selected materials carry valid Miami-Dade approval before we ever order them.
Yes, you can replace individual jalousie windows with impact-rated units, and many Hialeah homeowners do exactly that when they re-roof. Jalousie windows carry zero hurricane resistance and are prohibited under current HVHZ code for any new or replacement installation. Replacing them one at a time is common when budget is a factor. The key is that each new opening carries its own NOA and gets its own permit documentation. Ask about our $40 off any repair over $200 and the permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans when you call (727) 620-6983.
Documented wind mitigation features, including a code-compliant roof-to-deck attachment and impact-rated openings with permits, typically qualify Miami homeowners for windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. The documentation is the part that matters: without permits and inspection sign-offs, Citizens underwriting rules don’t recognize the upgrades. We provide the full documentation package with every permitted roof replacement and opening installation in Miami. Call (727) 620-6983 for a free estimate and we’ll walk through exactly what your insurer needs.
For openings facing Biscayne Bay in Miami, you need a design pressure rating matched to the specific opening size and wind zone, which typically lands between +/-60 and +/-100 depending on configuration. We never spec above +/-100, because that’s not what the opening requires. The bay-facing orientation, your home’s wind zone, and the opening dimensions all factor into the engineering. A sliding glass door facing the water in Coconut Grove will spec differently than a bedroom window on the inland side of the same house. Our team calculates this per opening, and the numbers go in your written quote.
Low-E impact glass cuts solar heat gain by reflecting infrared light, and in Miami’s near-year-round air conditioning season, that means your AC runs less. The U.S. Department of Energy has consistently found that Low-E coatings reduce energy loss through windows, and the federal 25C tax credit exists specifically because these products measurably reduce cooling load. For Miami homeowners, the effect is strongest on west-facing and south-facing openings that take direct afternoon sun. Call (727) 620-6983 and we’ll walk you through the glass packages available for your exact orientation.
