AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Ojus
Roof replacement in Ojus, FL typically runs $14,000 to $32,000 for a full tear-off and re-roof on a 1950s–1970s concrete-block ranch, with most jobs completed in five to seven working days once materials are staged. We’re Winslow Windows & Doors, and we’ve been replacing roofs on the 33160 corridor long enough to know exactly what Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone demands before the first shingle comes off. The wrong product choice here doesn’t just fail an inspection. It can void an insurance claim after the next storm. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through what your Ojus roof actually needs.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Ojus’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name has been on every job since, including the roofs we’ve replaced along West Dixie Highway, Highland Lakes Boulevard, and inside the gated communities off Ives Dairy Road. Ojus homeowners call us because we know the difference between a Broward County-compliant quote and a Miami-Dade HVHZ-compliant quote, and we’ve seen too many neighbors get burned by contractors who didn’t. A roof here has to meet wind-load standards that don’t apply two miles north of the county line, and our crews build to that standard every single time.
Every technician who shows up at an Ojus home is background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know who’s on your property before the truck door opens. We carry our published license number on every estimate, we give you a written line-item quote before any work begins, and the Done Right Promise means if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s not a warranty slogan. That’s a lasting accountability standard sitting behind every roof we install in 33160.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Ojus
Shingle Roof Replacement
The most common roof we replace in Ojus is architectural asphalt shingle over original 1960s sheathing. Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code requires specific nail patterns, secondary water barrier, and uplift-rated shingles that big-box stores don’t stock. We pull permits through Miami-Dade’s e-permitting portal, install to the current wind-load tables, and pass the final inspection before we hand you the closeout documents your insurer will want.
Tile Roof Installation
Many Ojus ranch homes were built with low-profile concrete or clay tile, and when those roofs hit 20 to 30 years old, the underlayment fails long before the tile looks bad. We replace tile systems with HVHZ-compliant fastening and direct-deck underlayment rated for Miami-Dade’s wind zone. Tile roofs in Ojus need their own product approvals, and we spec tiles that carry active NOAs so your permit doesn’t stall at review.
Metal Roof Installation
A standing-seam metal roof costs more up front in Ojus, usually $22,000 and up on a typical ranch, but it handles the salt-laden air off the Atlantic far better than exposed fasteners or thin-gauge panels. We install mechanically seamed systems with HVHZ uplift ratings and closures that stand up to the June-to-November season. For homes close to the Intracoastal, we recommend metal specifically because the air here corrodes standard flashing faster than inland Miami-Dade.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Systems
Low-rise condominium buildings and some 33160 homes with additions have flat or low-slope sections that need modified bitumen, TPO, or PVC systems. These roofs require their own wind-uplift attachments and edge-metal detailing under HVHZ rules. We coordinate with condo boards and property managers on dual approvals so the roof replacement doesn’t get held up because the master deed requires a specific color or system type.
Roof Repair Before Replacement
Not every Ojus roof needs to be torn off. We inspect first, and if a repair makes sense, we’ll say so. A loose tile or failing pipe boot on a 12-year-old roof is a $400 to $900 fix, not a $20,000 replacement, and we’re not going to sell you a new roof because it pads an invoice. When the roof has genuinely reached the end of its structural life, we’ll show you the photos and walk the deck with you.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus
We install and service roofing systems from manufacturers whose products carry active Miami-Dade NOAs for HVHZ use, including PGT, CGI, and CWS. If you already have a PGT underlayment or CWS fastening system from a previous installation, we can match materials and maintain the approvals your insurance file references. Because we stock common flashing, vents, and underlayment for Ojus jobs, we don’t wait on a distributor shipment to start your tear-off. We also service existing Roof Replacement & Installation work from other contractors when it’s failing, and we’ll document what was done wrong so you can pursue it.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Ojus Homes
- Non-NOA products on the original permit. Contractors quoting Broward-compliant materials for Ojus homes get bounced at permit review, and the homeowner loses the deposit and six weeks. We’ve had to re-pull permits for neighbors this happened to, and it’s entirely avoidable.
- Condominium dual-approval missed. Single-family ranchers aren’t the only buildings in 33160. Condo associations across Ojus have their own material and finish rules layered on top of Miami-Dade code, and we’ve seen boards order removal of brand-new work because the installer skipped that step.
- Wind-load design pressure omitted from the permit packet. Miami-Dade requires a design pressure calculation for the specific opening, and without it the county issues a stop-work order. That’s a dangerous situation on a torn-off roof during hurricane season, and it can sit idle for weeks while a structural engineer is hired after the fact.
- Salt-air corrosion on flashing and fasteners. Ojus sits only a few miles west of the Atlantic and the Intracoastal, so standard galvanized flashing rots out in half the time you’d expect inland. We see 8-year-old roofs with rusted-through pipe collars while the shingles still look fine below.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Ojus, FL
Here are the numbers we actually quote in Ojus, not a national database average. A tear-off and architectural shingle re-roof on a 1,600-square-foot CBS ranch runs $14,000 to $19,500. Tile replacement runs $19,000 to $28,000 depending on tile profile and underlayment code requirements. Standing-seam metal runs $22,000 to $32,000. Flat roof sections on condominiums or additions run $14 to $22 per square foot installed. These ranges include the Miami-Dade permit, the wind-load engineering, the secondary water barrier, and the final inspection. What moves your price: roof pitch and access, the total square footage of decking that needs replacement, and whether your current roof has two layers that both have to come off. Call (844) 901-4551, and we’ll come measure and write a fixed, line-item quote for your exact Ojus address. It’s free.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Ojus
Roof replacement is priced per square (100 square feet of roof area), and Ojus sits inside the HVHZ, which adds material and labor cost over non-HVHZ Florida markets. Expect to pay somewhere between $550 and $900 per square for shingle work, $750 to $1,100 per square for tile, and $850 to $1,250 per square for standing-seam metal, including the Miami-Dade permit and engineering. The biggest cost driver beyond square footage is underlying deck repair. On 1960s CBS homes we frequently find rotted sheathing at eaves and around old penetrations, and that decking replacement runs $3 to $5 per square foot of affected area. A roof with clean decking stays toward the bottom of those ranges; a roof with 30-year-old plywood exposed to decades of Ojus humidity goes higher. The free estimate includes an on-roof inspection so the number we quote is the number you approve, not a starting point.
Florida Pays You Back
Ojus homeowners who make wind-mitigation upgrades can stack real financial offsets. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation work, including HVHZ-compliant roof components. On top of that, Florida exempts impact-resistant roofing materials from sales tax, and the federal 25C energy credit may return up to 30% of product cost on qualifying reflective or insulated roof products, capped at $600 per year. After the roof is done, schedule a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150 in Ojus. The resulting report is what insurance carriers use to apply windstorm premium credits, and the savings on the windstorm portion of a Miami-Dade policy is a real, recurring number. We don’t control what your carrier does, but we make sure your documentation is complete and legible so there’s nothing for them to bounce.

FAQs — Roof Replacement & Installation in Ojus
Any replacement window or door in Ojus must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) because the entire city sits in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Big-box stores stock Florida Product Approval windows, which meet Broward code but not Miami-Dade’s stricter wind-load standard. A permit application in Ojus with a Florida Product Approval number will be rejected at review. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll spec NOA-listed units the first time so you don’t lose weeks or deposits.
Yes, and skipping it is one of the most expensive mistakes we see in Ojus. Your association’s master deed may require a specific frame finish, glazing color, or even a specific manufacturer. We coordinate the dual approval, getting board sign-off before a single unit is ordered, and we’ve handled enough 33160 condo buildings to know what the typical board is looking for. Call (844) 901-4551 with your building name and we’ll pull the requirements.
An Ojus window replacement must be installed with a design pressure rating matched to the specific opening, as calculated for Miami-Dade HVHZ, and the unit must carry an active NOA for its configuration. The mechanical plans examiner verifies the design pressure on the unit’s label against the NOA at the framing inspection. Standard Florida Product Approval windows fail this check every time. We include the wind-load calculation in every Ojus quote at no added charge.
When you replace original single-pane or jalousie windows with NOA-listed, HVHZ-compliant impact units, your wind-mitigation report improves, and that report is what carriers use to determine windstorm premium credits. Many Ojus homeowners see the windstorm portion of their premium drop after a compliant installation, and some avoid non-renewal notices entirely. We provide the closeout documentation your carrier will request, including the NOA numbers and the permit final. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through what the paper trail looks like.
Yes, and it’s a bigger factor here than almost anywhere else in Florida. The Atlantic and Intracoastal sit just a few miles east, and salt-laden air oxidizes aluminum hardware and frames on unprotected units within a decade. We recommend powder-coated aluminum frames or vinyl frames with marine-grade hardware for Ojus installations, and we avoid uncoated mill aluminum. The right frame choice from the start means windows that still operate smoothly in 20 years instead of seizing at the sash.
Ed’s name is on the door, and on every roof and window we install in Ojus. When you call (844) 901-4551, a live person answers. We’ll set up a free in-home measure, give you a written line-item quote, and if the work passes permit and inspection, you’ll know it was done right because our Done Right Promise says it was. The one down the road.
