AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Miami Homeowners
Roof Replacement & Installation - Miami is a serious investment, and the numbers vary widely depending on your home’s size, the roofing material you choose, and whether the existing decking is still sound. Most full replacements in the area run from $12,000 to $35,000, with high-end tile or standing-seam metal climbing above that. Winslow Windows & Doors has been handling Miami roof replacements since 2011, and Ed Winslow’s name is on every job we do. We’re not a franchise crew passing through. We’re the one down the road, and you can call us at (863) 862-5435 any hour of the day or night. A live person answers. Not a call center. Not voicemail.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Full Roof Replacement
When a roof has reached the end of its service life, patching becomes a losing game. We tear off the old roofing down to the deck, inspect the sheathing for rot or termite damage, replace compromised boards, and install a complete new system. That includes new underlayment, new flashing, new drip edge, and the roofing material itself. In Miami’s salt air and hurricane climate, the underlayment choice matters as much as what you can see from the street.
Shingle Roof Installation
Architectural shingles remain the most common choice for Miami homes because they balance cost, weight, and wind performance. We install high-quality asphalt shingle systems with upgraded synthetic underlayment and six-nail fastening patterns rather than the four-nail pattern some crews use to save time. Miami’s building code requires wind-rated shingles, and we make it a point to exceed the minimum, not just meet it. You’ll get a written line-item quote before we start, with no surprises on the invoice.
Tile Roof Installation
Barrel and flat concrete tile roofs are everywhere in neighborhoods like Coral Gables, Kendall, and Palmetto Bay because they handle heat and salt air well. The catch is that tile installation requires a heavier structure and meticulous attention to underlayment because cracked tiles or failed flashing let water sneak in silently. We replace broken tiles, re-bed and re-point ridge caps, and rebuild the tile system on top of a modern high-temperature underlayment. If a previous installer cut corners on fasteners, we’ll find it during tear-off and fix it properly.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and metal shingle roofs have become increasingly popular in Miami because they reflect heat and can withstand sustained winds when installed correctly. We install metal systems with locked seams and proper thermal movement allowance, which matters more in South Florida than in cooler climates. Metal roofing is also one of the few materials that can sometimes be installed over an existing shingle roof, though we’ll only recommend that when the deck and structure check out. Ed Winslow personally reviews every metal roof estimate before it reaches you.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Installation
Many mid-century homes and commercial-style residential properties in Miami, Miami Gardens, and North Miami have flat or low-slope roofs that demand specialized materials. We install modified bitumen and TPO systems with proper slope correction so water doesn’t pond after the afternoon thunderstorms we get every summer. Flat roofs fail fast when installers skip the primer or don’t seal the seams completely, so our crews inspect every seam before we call the job done. It’s slow work done right, and that’s intentional.
Storm Damage Roof Replacement
After a hurricane or strong tropical storm, Miami homeowners often find themselves dealing with peeled shingles, cracked tiles, or lifted flashing. We help you document the damage for insurance, provide a straightforward replacement estimate, and deal with the work in order of severity. Our teams know how to tarp a roof properly so a bad situation doesn’t get worse overnight. We also offer free second opinions on written estimates, which has saved more than a few Miami homeowners from paying for work they didn’t actually need.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for PGT and CGI products, which matters more than you might think. When a manufacturer authorizes an installer, that installer has been vetted for training, workmanship, and ongoing education. We’ve installed hundreds of PGT roofing-related systems and understand how their impact-rated components integrate with Miami’s wind code requirements. Because we’re an authorized dealer, our customers get full manufacturer warranty coverage without the fine-print exclusions that come with unauthorized installation.
We also work extensively with CWS and ViewLux products. CWS is known for their hurricane-rated opening protection systems, and ViewLux offers premium window and door solutions that pair beautifully with a newly replaced roof during a full exterior upgrade. Whether your home currently has any of these brands or you’re starting from scratch, we can help you choose the right system for your specific block, wind zone, and budget. If you have another brand installed, we service those too. The roof doesn’t care what label is on the shingle, and neither do we.

Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Daylight visible through the attic boards. If you can see sunlight coming through your roof deck from inside the attic, water can get in too. This means the roof structure itself has gaps, not just missing shingles. Call us at (863) 862-5435 for a same-week inspection before the next Miami downpour turns a small opening into a ceiling collapse.
- Granules collecting in your gutters. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, and once the protective surface is gone, the asphalt beneath bakes and cracks in the Miami sun. If your gutters look like they’re collecting sand, your roof is in the late stage of its life. A full replacement now costs less than waiting for leaks and rotted decking.
- Curling, cupping, or missing shingles after wind. A few missing shingles can sometimes be repaired, but widespread curling or cupping means the shingle’s adhesive strip has failed. That’s not a repair situation, that’s a roof telling you it’s done. In Hialeah and Miami Beach, we see this pattern constantly on roofs from the early 2000s.
- Water stains on ceilings or walls. By the time a roof leak shows up inside your home, water has already traveled through the deck and insulation. The visible stain is only the endpoint. We trace the intrusion back to its source during our estimate, so you’re not paying for a guess. Free estimates mean you can know exactly what you’re dealing with before committing.
- Sagging rooflines or visible deck rot. A sagging ridge or swale is structural, not cosmetic. It means the decking has been wet long enough to lose its strength. This is the one sign you should never ignore, because the roof is now a safety issue. We’ve reinforced decks in Doral and Cutler Bay where homeowners had no idea how far the rot had spread until we opened it up.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free on-site estimate and inspection. We come to your home, walk the roof, inspect the attic and deck, and take measurements. You get a written line-item quote that shows labor, materials, and any decking or flashing that needs attention. No trip charge inside our home county. No vague allowances.
- 2
Material selection and scheduling. You choose your shingle, tile, or metal system, and we order materials from our authorized suppliers. We’ll be upfront about lead times, because Miami’s supply chain moves differently than the rest of the state. You’ll get a start date and a realistic completion window in writing.
- 3
Tear-off and deck inspection. The old roof comes off, and we inspect every inch of the deck. Any rotted, warped, or termite-damaged boards get replaced, and that work is shown to you before we cover it. We photograph everything. No one should ever wonder what’s under their new roof.
- 4
Installation with code-compliant fastening. New underlayment goes down, then flashing, then the roofing material. We follow Miami-Dade and Florida Building Code requirements and exceed the minimum fastening pattern wherever wind uplift is a concern. Ed Winslow spot-checks jobs personally, unannounced, because his name is on the door and on every roof we leave behind.
- 5
Final walkthrough and cleanup. We walk the property with you, review the work, and confirm the site is cleaner than when we arrived. Magnets go over the yard to catch stray nails. You get your warranty paperwork, and you have our phone number. The 36500-Day Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right, we come back and make it right. Period.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Miami?
A full shingle roof replacement on a typical 1,800 to 2,400 square foot Miami home runs $12,000 to $22,000. Tile roofs usually land between $20,000 and $38,000 because of the extra structural weight and the labor involved. Metal roofing, especially standing seam, ranges from $18,000 to $35,000 depending on gauge, profile, and whether we’re removing the old roof first. Flat or low-slope systems for mid-century homes in neighborhoods like North Miami typically cost $10,000 to $18,000. These are real ranges from jobs we’ve actually priced, not national averages from a website.
Several factors move the number. Roof pitch, number of penetrations (vents, skylights, chimneys), deck condition, and the current cost of materials all change the final price. Homes in Coral Gables with strict architectural requirements sometimes need specific tile profiles that cost more. Older Miami Beach Roof Replacement & Installation jobs frequently need deck replacement, which adds $2 to $4 per square foot. The way to avoid overpaying is simple: get a line-item quote, compare it, and know exactly what’s included. Our estimates are free, written, and come with a handshake from someone whose name you can verify. Call (863) 862-5435 and you’ll know your number within a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami
Roof replacement is the complete removal of your existing roofing system down to the deck, followed by installation of new underlayment, flashing, and roofing material. It’s different from repair, which addresses isolated damage. In Miami, full replacement is often the better financial choice when a roof is past 15 to 18 years old and facing the cumulative effect of sun, salt, and storms. Call (863) 862-5435 for a free estimate if you’re unsure which route makes sense for your home.
Most shingle roof replacements take two to four days once the crew starts, while tile and metal roofs often take five to ten days depending on size and complexity. Flat roof systems usually take three to six days. Permitting with Miami-Dade or the city of Miami can add one to three weeks before work begins. We give you a written schedule at contract signing so there’s no guessing.
Shingle roofs run $12,000 to $22,000 on average, tile roofs $20,000 to $38,000, and metal roofs $18,000 to $35,000, with flat roofs ranging from $10,000 to $18,000. Your exact number depends on roof size, pitch, deck condition, and material choice. Our estimates are free, written, and line-itemed, so you can see every dollar before you commit. Call (863) 862-5435 to schedule yours.
Yes. Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for PGT and CGI, and we service those product lines regularly across Miami, our Roof Replacement & Installation in Hialeah, and Miami Beach. Authorization means our team has been trained by the manufacturers and can offer full warranty coverage on their systems. If you have another brand, we service those too with the same standard of workmanship.
We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If a tree branch punctures your roof at 2 a.m. or storm winds lift a section of shingles, you’ll reach a live person, not a voicemail system. We prioritize emergency tarping and temporary protection for existing customers and new callers alike. Call (863) 862-5435 any time, and we’ll walk you through what to do next.
Manufacturer warranties cover the materials, typically for 25 to 50 years on shingles and 30 to 50 years on metal, while our workmanship carries the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. That promise means if it’s not done right, Ed Winslow makes it right. We also document every phase of the installation with photos, so warranty claims never turn into a he-said, she-said situation.
Clear your driveway and any vehicles from areas directly under the roof edges so debris and old materials don’t become a hazard. Cover items in the attic with old sheets or plastic, because a roof tear-off generates fine dust even when we tarp the interior. Keep children and pets inside during the active work hours. We handle everything else, including full cleanup at the end of each day.
