Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company

Kendall homeowners deal with a specific set of roofing challenges: HVHZ wind codes, salt-heavy air from Biscayne Bay, and housing stock that’s now 30 to 55 years old. We’ve spent over a decade working these neighborhoods, and our crews know exactly what happens to a roof that’s been through twenty hurricane seasons on a CBS tract home off Kendall Drive or SW 88th Street.

Every technician who shows up in Kendall is background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before the truck stops. And when you call us at midnight with a roof leak over the baby’s room, a live person picks up. No voicemail loop, no call center in another state. That’s why Kendall customers keep our number saved.

Our standing offers are permanent, not promotions: $40 off any repair over $200, free second opinions on any written estimate, no trip charge inside Miami-Dade, and a 10% discount for seniors and veterans. We publish our address and license number because transparency is the only way we know how to work.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Kendall

Full Roof Replacement

When the underlayment is shot and the decking is spongy, patching stops making sense. We tear off the old system, inspect and replace damaged sheathing, and install a new roof engineered for Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Most Kendall homes from the 1970s through early 1990s need full decking replacement, not just new shingles, because the original plywood has been quietly rotting under the old felt for decades. We give you a written line-item quote before anyone climbs a ladder.

Roof Installation on New Additions

Adding a bedroom or extending the kitchen in your Kendall home? The roof on that addition has to tie into the existing structure and meet the same HVHZ wind uplift requirements as the rest of the house. Inspectors in Miami-Dade are strict about this, and we know exactly what they’ll check. Our Roof Replacement & Installation team handles the structural connections, secondary water barrier, and flashing so your addition passes inspection the first time.

Shingle Roof Installation

Architectural shingles remain the most common choice in Kendall, particularly in planned communities like The Hammocks and Kendale Lakes where architectural review boards prefer the look. We install shingle systems with reinforced nailing patterns required for HVHZ wind uplift, not the standard patterns allowed in Broward or Central Florida. If your roofer learned his trade up north, he’s nailing too far apart for Miami-Dade code.

Tile and Flat Roof Systems

Barrel tile and flat concrete tile are common on higher-end Kendall homes, especially in gated communities and custom builds west of the Turnpike. Tile roofs here have to be set and fastened for wind speeds exceeding 170 mph, and the underlayment under tile matters more than the tile itself. We also install metal roofing systems, which hold up unusually well against Kendall’s salt-laden air because the panels don’t absorb moisture the way tile and shingle surfaces do over time.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall

We install roofing materials and window products from manufacturers we’d put on our own homes. For roofing, we work with your choice of shingle, tile, and metal systems that carry current Miami-Dade NOA documentation. For window replacements and impact doors that often accompany a roof job in pre-Andrew Kendall homes, we’re authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru. We keep common parts stocked for fast turnaround in Kendall, and we’ll never tell you a three-week wait is normal when it isn’t.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Kendall Homes

• Corroded roof-to-wall connections: The non-stainless steel straps and fasteners used on 1970s and 1980s Kendall homes corrode unseen behind stucco. By the time we open the roof, the connection is sometimes held together by rust and luck. We replace them with hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware that passes wind-mitigation re-inspection even after decades of salt exposure.
• Original jalousie windows that fail wind-mitigation: Many pre-1980 Kendall tract homes still have louvered glass jalousies that can never be made code-legal. Insurers flag them, premiums jump, and the windows have to come out entirely. We handle the full removal and replacement with NOA-certified impact units.
• Oxidized aluminum window frames: In Kendall’s salt-laden air, uncoated aluminum frames on original single-pane windows seize up within 10 to 15 years. Homeowners literally cannot open their windows anymore. It’s a safety issue and a ventilation problem, and the fix is full replacement with marine-grade finished frames.
• Underlayment failures hidden by older shingles: Kendall’s heat and humidity cycle stress roofing felt far more than the visible shingles suggest. We regularly find the underlayment dry-rotted or torn under shingles that look fine from the ground. A roof that looks “okay” is often one storm away from water in the ceiling.

We make it simple: free in-home measure, written quote, and a fixed price before any work starts. Call (850) 930-1813 to schedule yours.

Florida Pays You Back

Kendall homeowners can stack several incentives when they replace windows and doors along with a roof. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which saves real money on a five-figure job. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit returns 30% of the product cost on qualifying energy-efficient units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150), many Kendall homeowners see windstorm premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Program rules and carriers set the final numbers, so we’ll help you understand what applies to your specific home. The savings stack higher than most people expect.

We Also Serve Cities Near Kendall

Our crews work throughout Kendall and the surrounding communities. We regularly replace roofs and impact windows in South Miami, Miami, Hialeah, and Doral. If you’re a few miles off Kendall Drive but still in Miami-Dade, we’re your local crew, and the no-trip-charge policy applies across the county.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Kendall

Salt Air Decides the Materials in Kendall

Here’s the thing about Kendall that no generic roofing page will tell you: salt air determines what holds up and what falls apart. We’ve pulled original jalousie windows out of pre-1980 CBS homes where the aluminum frames crumbled in our hands from years of salt oxidation. We’ve opened roofs on 1970s tract homes and found the roof-to-wall straps eaten through behind stucco, the connection held together by rust and prayer. The cheap spec on a Kendall roof or window replacement costs more within a decade because you’ll pay for it twice: once for the install, and again when the corroded hardware fails a wind-mitigation re-inspection and your insurer spikes your premium.

On a 1978 CBS ranch in Kendale Lakes, we pulled out a wall of original jalousie windows that had been failed on a wind-mitigation inspection. The aluminum frames were so oxidized from years of salt air they crumbled in our hands. We replaced them with PGT impact-rated casement windows carrying a Miami-Dade NOA and large-missile rating, and the homeowner’s wind mitigation report went from “no credit” to “full credit” before the insurance renewal deadline. That’s the Kendall story in one job.

The price gap between coastal-spec and inland-spec is real. Stainless steel fasteners, hot-dip galvanized straps, marine-grade finishes, sealed joints, reinforced nailing patterns: these add 10 to 20 percent to the upfront cost. Skip them and the re-inspection catches it. Buy them and the roof rides out the next storm the way it should. This is why we don’t give Kendall homeowners the Broward-spec quote. Ed’s name is on the door, and we’re not putting his name on hardware we know won’t hold.

Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters in Kendall

Both pass code, but they’re not the same life. Shutters require someone to be home and physically able to wrestle panels onto every opening as the storm approaches. That includes second-story windows, which in Kendall’s CBS two-story homes from the late 1980s and early 1990s means a ladder on wet concrete in the wind. Impact windows are permanent. They’re always on, always protecting, never mismatched, never lost in the garage. They also cut noise and lower cooling costs year-round, which shutters don’t do at all. For most Kendall homeowners, impact windows are the decision they make once and never think about again. Then they call (850) 930-1813 for the quote that makes it pencil out.
