AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Fountainebleau Homeowners
Roof replacement in Fountainebleau typically costs between $12,000 and $28,000 for a standard asphalt shingle roof on a 1,800 to 2,400 square foot home, with most projects completed in 2 to 5 days once materials arrive. We’re Winslow Windows & Doors, and we’ve been replacing and installing roofs across Miami-Dade County since 2011. Ed Winslow founded this company on a simple idea: answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind every single job. That’s why we back every roof we install with our Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Call us at (727) 620-6983 and you’ll reach a live person who can schedule your free estimate.
Fountainebleau sits just east of the Turnpike, and its homes take a beating from afternoon thunderstorms, salt air drifting off the Everglades, and the occasional hurricane warning that sends everyone to the hardware store for plywood. Nearby, Coral Gables Roof Replacement & Installation faces many of the same challenges. We know these roofs because we drive these streets. When a roof fails here, it fails fast. Water finds its way into the attic, then the ceiling, then the drywall. By the time you see a stain, the damage is already done. That’s why we treat every roof inspection like it’s our own home on the line.
Key Takeaways
- Roof replacement in Fountainebleau runs $12,000-$28,000 for most homes; tile and metal run higher.
- We answer the phone 24/7 with a live person, never a call center.
- Every job carries the Done Right Promise, Ed Winslow’s personal guarantee.
- We pull permits, pass inspections, and give you a written line-item quote before we start.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Most homeowners only replace a roof once or twice in their lifetime, so the process feels unfamiliar. Here’s exactly what we do when we take on a roof replacement in Fountainebleau, from the first phone call to the final nail.
Full Roof Replacement
A full roof replacement means tearing off everything down to the decking and rebuilding the system from the sheathing up. You need this when your roof has reached the end of its service life, usually 20 to 25 years for asphalt shingles in South Florida’s heat and humidity. We strip the old material, inspect the wood decking for rot or termite damage, replace any compromised sections, install new underlayment with proper waterproofing, and finish with the roofing material of your choice. Every layer gets installed to Miami-Dade County code, and we pull the permit before we touch a single shingle.
New Roof Installation
New construction and major additions need a roof designed from scratch, not a retrofit of an old one. We work with your builder or architect to make sure the roof structure, ventilation, and drainage are correct before the first layer goes down. We also handle re-roofing over existing shingles when the underlying structure is sound and code allows it in Fountainebleau. The goal is a roof that sheds water properly, ventilates the attic, and meets current wind mitigation standards, which can actually lower your homeowners insurance premium.
Tile Roof Replacement
Fountainebleau has a lot of Spanish-style and Mediterranean revival homes with concrete or clay tile roofs, and those need a specific touch. Tile is heavy, brittle, and unforgiving if you walk on it wrong. We replace broken tiles, re-bed and re-point ridge caps, and when the underlayment fails, we lift the tiles, replace the waterproofing, and reset the same tile if it’s still in good shape. A properly installed tile roof should last 50 years or more, but only if the underlayment beneath it was done correctly. We see a lot of tile roofs in this neighborhood that failed early because someone skimped on the layer nobody sees.
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common roof in Fountainebleau because they’re cost-effective, wind-rated, and fast to install. We replace them with dimensionally stable architectural shingles rated for 130 mph winds or higher, not the cheap 3-tab material that starts curling after five years in Florida sun. The thing most people don’t realize is that the shingle is only half the story. The underlayment, starter strips, flashing, and ventilation all have to work together or the new shingles will fail long before their warranty runs out. We detail each of those components in your written estimate so you can compare apples to apples.
Metal Roof Replacement
Metal roofing is growing in Fountainebleau because it reflects heat, resists wind uplift, and can last 40 to 70 years with almost no maintenance. We install standing seam metal panels and metal shingles with properly engineered fastening patterns and thermal movement allowances. Metal costs more up front than asphalt, usually two to three times more, but it pays back over decades in energy savings and insurance discounts. We’ll give you honest numbers on both options so you can decide with your eyes open.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
We install roofing systems from a range of manufacturers, and we’ve built our reputation by knowing the details that separate a good install from a great one. With Therma-Tru, that means we understand exactly how roof-to-wall transitions and exterior door framing need to work together, because we install their doors too. A roof that dumps water onto a door system, or a door that was flashed wrong against a new roof, is a failure waiting to happen. Since we handle both sides of that equation, you get one crew that sees the whole picture.
We also work extensively with Mr-Glass and ECO Window Systems products, which matters more than you’d think. When we replace a roof, we check every roof penetration, skylight, and chimney flashing in the same visit. Those brands show up on homes throughout Fountainebleau, and we know their installation tolerances and how their products interact with the roof system. Whether your home has those brands or any other make, we can help. The roof doesn’t care what name is stamped on the window above it. It just needs the flashing done right.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Granules in the gutters or at the base of downspouts. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, and when you start seeing piles of them, the shingles are losing their protective surface. In Fountainebleau’s UV-intense summers, that means the shingle is drying out and cracking, and once the fiberglass mat is exposed, leaks are not far behind.
- Curling, lifting, or missing shingles after a storm. Wind gets under the edge of a shingle and breaks the seal, then the next storm takes it off entirely. Once you have one missing shingle, the roof is compromised. Water gets under the remaining shingles and starts traveling, which means the leak you eventually see in the ceiling might be six feet from the actual hole.
- Water stains on ceilings or walls in upstairs rooms. By the time a leak shows up inside the house, it has already saturated the insulation and likely damaged the decking. The stain is the symptom, not the problem. We find the actual entry point, which in Fountainebleau is often a pipe boot, a valley, or a flashing detail rather than the open field of shingles.
- Daylight visible through the attic roof boards. Go up into your attic on a sunny afternoon and turn off the light. If you can see slivers of daylight through the decking, water is getting in. The same nail holes and gaps that let in light let in rain, and they also mean the roof deck has weathered to the point where a nail won’t hold properly during the next replacement.
- Sagging ridge line or a roof that looks wavy from the curb. A roof should run straight and true. When the ridge starts to dip or the plane looks uneven, the decking underneath is likely soft or the framing has been compromised by moisture. That is a structural issue, not a cosmetic one. It needs to be addressed before the next heavy rain turns a repair into a full replacement, or worse.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
The free on-site inspection. We come out to your Fountainebleau home and walk the roof ourselves. We check the decking, flashing, ventilation, and drainage, and we take photos of everything we find. You get a written report that shows exactly what we saw and what we recommend, not a salesman’s talking points. The inspection is free, and so is a second opinion on any written estimate you’ve gotten from another company.
- 2
Your written line-item estimate. We give you a detailed quote that breaks down materials, labor, permits, disposal, and any decking replacement we expect to make. No vague allowances, no “we’ll figure it out later” line items. If the price changes once we open the roof and find surprises, we stop, show you what we found, and get your sign-off before spending another dollar of your money.
- 3
Permit and material order. We pull all permits required by Miami-Dade County and the city. We order your materials from our supplier network and schedule delivery to coordinate with the crew’s start date. You don’t chase paper. We handle the whole file.
- 4
Demolition and decking inspection. The crew strips the old roof, protects your landscaping and exterior with tarps and plywood, and bags all debris as it comes down. Once the decking is exposed, we inspect every sheet of plywood. Anything soft, delaminated, or termite-damaged gets replaced before the new roof goes on. This is the step that separates a roof that lasts 25 years from one that fails in 12.
- 5
Installation, final walkthrough, and cleanup. We install the new underlayment, flashings, and roofing material to manufacturer spec and Miami-Dade code. We magnetic-sweep the entire property for nails, run leaf blowers over the walkways and driveway, and do a final walkthrough with you before we consider the job done. Then the Done Right Promise kicks in, and it doesn’t expire in your lifetime.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Fountainebleau?
A typical asphalt shingle roof replacement in Fountainebleau runs $12,000 to $28,000 depending on the size of the roof, the pitch, the number of stories, and whether the decking needs to be replaced. Tile roofs run $25,000 to $45,000. Metal roofs, especially standing seam, typically land between $30,000 and $55,000. Those numbers assume a single-family home between 1,800 and 2,400 square feet. A smaller ranch will come in under that range, and a two-story with steep pitches and multiple valleys will push past it.
What actually moves the price? The big items are roof size and complexity, the material you choose, whether the existing roof has one layer or two, the condition of the decking, and how much flashing detail the roof has. A roof with three valleys, two skylights, four pipe penetrations, and a chimney costs more to flash properly than a simple hip roof with no penetrations. The best way to avoid overpaying is to get a line-item estimate so you can see exactly where every dollar goes. That’s what we give you, for free, no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Fountainebleau
Roof replacement is the process of removing your existing roof system down to the decking and installing a brand new one. It includes underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and the finished surface, whether that’s shingles, tile, or metal. Installation is the same process for a new home or addition that has never had a roof. We handle both, and we pull permits and pass inspections on every job. Call (727) 620-6983 for a free estimate.
A standard asphalt shingle roof replacement takes 2 to 5 days once materials are on site, with an extra day or two if we’re replacing decking. Tile and metal take longer, usually 5 to 10 days, because the materials are slower to install correctly. Weather delays happen in South Florida, especially during the summer thunderstorm season, and we build that into our scheduling. We’ll give you a realistic timeline in your estimate and stick to it.
Most Fountainebleau homes fall between $12,000 and $28,000 for an asphalt shingle roof, $25,000 to $45,000 for tile, and $30,000 to $55,000 for metal. Your exact price depends on roof size, pitch, decking condition, and the material you choose. We give you a written line-item quote before you commit, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Call (727) 620-6983 to schedule your free estimate.
We work with roofing systems from a range of manufacturers, and we’re especially familiar with homes that have Therma-Tru doors, Mr-Glass products, and ECO Window Systems components. Because we install windows and doors alongside roofing, we understand how those systems need to integrate at the roofline, flashing, and drip edge. That means fewer leaks at the transition points where most roof failures actually start.
If your roof is actively leaking, yes, that’s an emergency, and we treat it like one. Call us at (727) 620-6983 any hour of the day or night and a live person will pick up. We can often send a crew out to tarp the damaged area and stop the water intrusion the same day, then schedule the full replacement as soon as materials are available. You don’t wait for a call center to route you to a regional manager. You get a person who can actually help.
Your new roof carries two warranties. The manufacturer warrants the material, usually 30 to 50 years for shingles, 50 years for tile, and 40 years or more for metal. We warrant the installation, but more importantly, Ed Winslow backs it with the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right, no expiration date and no fine print. That’s the whole deal, and it’s been our standard since 2011.
Move vehicles out of the driveway and away from the house so the crew can stage materials and position ladders. Take down wall art and anything fragile from shelves on the top floor, because hammering sends vibrations through the framing. We’ll protect your landscaping with tarps, and we’ll run a magnetic sweep at the end of every day to catch dropped nails. If you have any questions in the middle of the job, call us and a live person answers, day or night.
