AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Miami Homeowners
A roof replacement in Miami typically runs between $11,000 and $28,000 for a standard single-family home, depending on square footage, material choice, and whether your existing decking needs repair. Most full replacements take 2 to 5 days once materials are on site and permits are approved. At Winslow Windows & Doors, we’ve been putting roofs on Miami homes since 2011, and Ed Winslow’s name goes on every job we do, which means we don’t cut corners and we don’t walk away until the work is done right.
Miami’s climate punishes roofs harder than almost anywhere else in the country. Between the salt air off Biscayne Bay, hurricane season pressure cycling, and months of UV that bake shingles until they curl and crack, a roof here ages in dog years. We answer the phone 24/7 at (844) 901-4551, and when you call, a real person picks up, not a call center. Whether you’re in Shenandoah, Coconut Grove, or up in Miami Shores, we’ll come out, climb up, and tell you straight what your roof needs and what it’ll cost.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Full Roof Tear-Off and Replacement
When your existing roof has reached the end of its service life, patching individual problem areas stops making financial sense. We strip the old material all the way down to the decking so we can see exactly what’s underneath, because in Miami, hidden deck rot from years of humidity and storm-driven rain is common, especially on homes built before the 2002 Florida Building Code updates. Winslow Windows & Doors installs the new roofing system from the deck up, including underlayment, flashing, and the finish material you choose. Every layer gets inspected before the next one goes on, and we photograph the process so you can see what we saw.
Shingle Roof Installation
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular roofing choice in Miami for good reason: they balance upfront cost, wind resistance, and ease of future repair. We install shingle systems rated for Miami-Dade County’s wind zone requirements, with proper nail patterns and starter strips, because a shingle roof is only as good as its fastening. Ed Winslow has spent over a decade watching shingle failures in neighborhoods like Westchester and Fountainebleau, and the culprit is almost always the same: installers who rushed the nailing. We don’t rush.
Tile Roof Installation
Clay and concrete tile roofing is the look most associated with South Florida architecture, from the Mediterranean revival homes in Coral Gables to the sprawling ranches in South Miami. Tile roofs can last 50 years or more when the underlayment is done right, but that underlayment is the critical layer most homeowners never see. We install tile systems with high-temperature self-adhered underlayment that meets current Miami-Dade code, because the tile itself is a water-shedding layer, not the waterproof layer. The waterproof layer underneath is what keeps your ceiling dry during a summer afternoon downpour.
Metal Roof Installation
Metal roofing has moved from commercial buildings into Miami residential neighborhoods over the last decade, and for solid reasons: it sheds rain faster, reflects more solar heat, and carries a 140 mph wind rating when installed correctly. We install standing-seam and metal shingle systems, and we’re straightforward about the tradeoffs, because metal costs more upfront than asphalt but often outlasts two shingle roofs in this climate. For homeowners planning to stay in their home for 15 years or more, the math frequently favors metal, and we’ll walk you through those numbers line by line.
Roof Decking Repair and Replacement
No roofing contractor in Miami can honestly quote a new roof without knowing what’s under the old one. After tear-off, if we find rotted or delaminated decking, which we often do on older homes in neighborhoods like Miami Springs, we replace those sections before anything else goes down. We show you photos of every damaged board before we replace it, and the cost per sheet is agreed upon before we start. You’ll never get a surprise line item you didn’t approve.
Roof Flashing and Ventilation
The places where your roof meets a wall, chimney, skylight, or pipe are where Miami roofs leak first. Flashing failures account for a disproportionate share of the water damage claims we see across the city. During every replacement, we remove and replace all flashing, not just the spots that look bad, and we assess attic ventilation to make sure your new roof isn’t cooking from underneath. Proper airflow adds years to any roofing system, and in Miami’s heat, improper ventilation can literally bake the adhesive out of shingles.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
Over the years, we’ve built deep familiarity with the premium brands Miami homeowners actually want on their houses. Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for PGT and CGI, two Florida-born manufacturers whose products are engineered specifically for our hurricane environment. When a homeowner in Coral Gables asks for impact-rated roof-to-wall connections or a system designed to meet the strictest wind mitigation standards, we spec PGT or CGI because we know exactly how their installation requirements differ from standard lines, and we train our crews on those differences directly.
For homeowners looking at architectural openings, skylights, or specialty glass that ties into a new roof, we are also authorized with CWS and ViewLux. These brands show up on high-end Miami homes where the roof line and the window line need to work together visually and structurally. Whether you have a preference already or you’re not sure which brand fits your home and budget, call us. We’ll walk you through the options honestly, because the right choice depends on your roofline, your exposure, and what your insurance carrier wants to see. Whatever you’re working with, from any manufacturer, we can help.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Granules in your gutters or at the base of downspouts. Asphalt shingles shed ceramic granules as they age, and when you start seeing piles of them every time it rains, your shingles are losing their UV shield. In Miami’s sun, that loss accelerates quickly, and a roof that’s shedding granules is a roof that’s on borrowed time.
- Water stains on ceilings or along exterior walls. By the time water shows up inside your home, it has already traveled through the roofing system and possibly into insulation and framing. In Miami’s humidity, that trapped moisture breeds mold fast, often within 48 hours, which turns a roof repair into a much larger remediation project.
- Sunlight visible through the attic boards. Go up into your attic on a bright day and turn off the flashlight. If you can see daylight through the roof deck, water can get in through those same gaps. This is one of the simplest diagnostics we recommend, and it’s one of the first things we check during any Miami roof inspection.
- Shingles that are curling, cracking, or lifting at the edges. South Florida’s thermal cycling expands and contracts roofing materials every single day. When shingles start curling at the corners or lifting along the seams, wind-driven rain can get underneath them, and Miami’s afternoon thunderstorms love to test that weakness.
- A roof that’s 15 years old or older and hasn’t been inspected. Even if it looks fine from the street, a roof of this age in Miami has absorbed roughly 50,000 hours of UV exposure and dozens of severe weather events. An inspection costs you nothing inside our home county, and it tells you exactly where you stand before the next hurricane season arrives.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process — Step by Step
- 1
Free on-site inspection and honest assessment. We come out, walk the roof, check the attic, and take photos of everything we find. You get a straight answer about the condition of your roof, not a sales pitch, and if we think a repair will buy you a few more years instead of a replacement, we’ll tell you that too. There’s no trip charge for homes inside our home county.
- 2
Written line-item estimate with fixed pricing. Before you sign anything, you’ll see exactly what materials we’re using, what labor is involved, and what the permitting will cost. Our pricing is fixed once we agree on the scope. No change orders halfway through the job, no vague “miscellaneous materials” line that balloons at the end. Ed Winslow signs off on every estimate personally.
- 3
Permit acquisition and scheduling. Roof replacement in Miami requires permits, and we pull them for you. We coordinate with the building department, schedule inspections, and make sure the work meets current Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade requirements. You don’t chase paperwork. We handle it.
- 4
Tear-off, deck inspection, and system installation. Our crew strips the old roof, inspects and repairs the deck as needed, then installs the underlayment, flashing, and finish material according to manufacturer specifications and local code. We protect your landscaping with tarps, we run a magnet bar over the yard at the end of every day, and we keep the job site clean.
- 5
Final walkthrough and warranty documentation. When the roof is done, Ed or one of our senior project managers walks the property with you, answers every question, and hands you your warranty paperwork before you’re asked for final payment. And then the Done Right Promise kicks in: if it’s not done right, we come back and make it right. That’s a lasting standard, and we mean every word of it.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Miami?
What moves the price? The condition of your decking is the biggest variable we can’t see until tear-off. The pitch of your roof matters too, because steeper roofs require more safety equipment and slower work. The number of penetrations such as plumbing vents, skylights, and chimneys adds flashing complexity. And material choice moves the needle substantially: architectural shingles cost less than tile or metal, but they also don’t last as long. The best way to avoid overpaying is to get a fixed-price written estimate that includes everything, which is exactly what we provide. A free estimate from Winslow Windows & Doors includes a detailed breakdown, so you can see where every dollar goes before you commit to anything. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule yours.

Frequently Asked Questions — Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami
What is roof replacement and installation?
Roof replacement and installation is the process of removing your existing roofing material down to the decking and installing a completely new roofing system, including underlayment, flashing, and your chosen finish material like shingles, tile, or metal. It’s different from a repair, which addresses isolated damage, because a replacement gives you a fresh start across the entire roof plane. In Miami, replacements must meet current Miami-Dade County building code requirements for wind resistance and waterproofing. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free inspection if you’re not sure whether you need a repair or a full replacement.
How long does a roof replacement take in Miami?
Most single-family homes in Miami can have a full shingle roof replacement completed in 2 to 3 working days once materials are delivered and the permit is approved. Tile and metal installations typically run 4 to 5 working days due to the material handling and fastening requirements. Weather delays happen during summer storm season, but we schedule accordingly and keep you informed. We’ll give you a firm timeline in writing before we start.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Miami?
As of 2026, Miami homeowners should expect to spend $11,000 to $16,000 for an architectural shingle roof on a 2,000-square-foot home, $18,000 to $28,000 for tile, and $20,000 to $32,000 for standing-seam metal. The final number depends on decking condition, roof pitch, penetrations, and material grade. Your estimate from Winslow Windows & Doors is free and line-itemized, so you’ll see exactly what you’re paying for. Call (844) 901-4551 for an exact quote based on your roof’s actual measurements.
Do you service PGT and CGI roofing products?
Yes, Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for both PGT and CGI, and we have specific training and experience with their installation requirements for Miami-Dade’s wind zone. These Florida-based manufacturers engineer their products for hurricane conditions, and proper installation is critical to their performance ratings. We also work with CWS and ViewLux for specialty glass and skylight integrations. Whatever brand you’re considering, we’ll give you an honest assessment of how it fits your home.
Can you do an emergency roof replacement or temporary protection?
We answer our phones 24/7, and yes, if a tree limb punctures your roof or a storm blows shingles off, we can come out and secure the property to prevent further water intrusion. Temporary tarping or board-up service is available, and if the damage warrants a full replacement, we’ll walk you through the insurance process and get your replacement scheduled as quickly as materials and permits allow. Call (844) 901-4551 any hour, any day.
What warranty do you offer on roof replacement?
Every roof replacement we install is backed by the Done Right Promise from Ed Winslow: if it’s not done right, we come back and make it right. That’s a lasting commitment to our workmanship, and it’s in addition to the manufacturer’s material warranty on your shingles, tile, or metal panels. We document every installation with photos and file your warranty paperwork properly so there’s never any question about coverage down the road.
How do I prepare my home for roof replacement day?
Clear your driveway so our crew can stage materials, move vehicles out of the work zone, and remove or cover anything fragile in your attic, since tear-off vibration can shake dust loose. We handle ground protection, landscaping tarps, and daily cleanup, including running a magnet bar over the yard to catch stray nails. We’ll walk you through the full preparation checklist when you schedule. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll get you on the calendar.
