Miami sits entirely inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That isn’t a marketing phrase, it’s a code designation shared only with Broward County. Every roof we install here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, which means the materials, the fasteners, and the underlayment all have to pass a wind-driven-rain test that inland Florida never has to deal with. Ed Winslow has been putting his name on jobs since 2011, and he doesn’t send a crew anywhere in Miami that he wouldn’t put his own family under.

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

We’re the Done Right Promise company. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That promise means more on a Miami roof than almost anywhere else, because the failure mode here isn’t cosmetic. A roof that lifts at the eave during a Category 4 isn’t an inconvenience; it’s water in your attic, a tarp on your house, and an insurance adjuster who may not renew your policy. We build roofs that hold.

Every crew lead we send into Miami neighborhoods like Westchester, Little Havana, or Coconut Grove lives and works in South Florida. They know what a 1960s CBS home looks like from the tie-beam up. They know what happens when galvanized nails meet Biscayne Bay salt air for eight years. And they’re background-checked, uniformed, and show up when we say they will. You won’t get a ticket number from a call center. You’ll get a live person on the phone, any hour, and Ed’s name on the work.

Calls are answered by a real person 24/7. Not a voicemail loop. Not a next-business-day callback. If it’s 2 a.m. and water is coming through the ceiling, someone picks up. That’s the whole point of being locally owned instead of a faceless national chain.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Miami

This page covers what we do and what it costs in your city. For the broader picture on how our Roof Replacement & Installation team works across South Florida, start there. Everything below is specific to Miami’s wind zone, salt exposure, and housing stock.

Shingle Roof Replacement

Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common choice for Miami homeowners, and for good reason. A properly installed shingle roof with a Miami-Dade NOA and sealed underlayment will handle a Cat 4 wind event. The catch is the fasteners. Standard electro-galvanized nails corrode fast here, especially within two miles of the bay. We specify hot-dip galvanized ring-shank nails on every shingle roof we replace in Miami, and we won’t install anything less.

Standing-Seam Metal Roof Replacement

Metal is the fastest-growing roof type in Miami, driven by insurance discounts and the fact that it doesn’t lose granules to wind-driven rain. But salt air eats metal too, so we spec marine-grade finishes and stainless or hot-dip hardware at every penetration. A coastal-spec standing-seam roof costs about 15 to 20 percent more than the inland version of the same job. The inland version starts showing rust streaks at the fasteners inside a decade. You pick.

Flat and Low-Slope Roof Systems

Miami has tens of thousands of flat-roof CBS homes from the 1950s and 1960s, especially in Westchester, West Little Havana, and Hialeah. These are the roofs that fail first in a hurricane, because wind pressure and storm surge combine at the roof-to-wall junction and push water up under the edge. We pull the old membrane, replace rotted decking, seal every roof-to-wall joint, and install a code-approved membrane system with a Miami-Dade NOA. This isn’t a patch job. It’s a rebuild of the flashing detail that most out-of-town crews never get right.

Roof Deck Replacement and Sheathing Repairs

Sometimes the shingles are fine and the deck underneath is shot. On older Miami homes, that’s common. We strip the roof to the sheathing, replace what’s rotten or termite-damaged, and re-nail the entire deck to current code with ring-shank fasteners before the new roof goes on. It adds cost, but skipping it means your new roof is only as strong as the rotten plywood under it. Insurance inspectors look at the deck. So do we.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami

Winslow is an authorized installer for eight brands: PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru repair in Miami. On the roofing side, we source Miami-Dade NOA materials from manufacturers that engineer specifically for the HVHZ. We stock common Miami replacement parts locally, so if a flashing detail fails after a storm, we aren’t waiting on a truck from Orlando. You want a crew that knows what a Miami-Dade NOA sticker actually means. We do.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Miami Homes

• Corroded fasteners on shingle roofs. Standard galvanized nails last five to eight years in Miami’s salt-laden air before they thin out, lift, and leak. We replace them with hot-dip galvanized ring-shank nails as a matter of course, not as an upgrade.
• Non-HVHZ underlayment that fails during wind-driven rain. A roof can look fine and still let water into the attic when 140 mph wind drives rain sideways. Miami-Dade NOA peel-and-stick underlayment is the difference between a dry ceiling and a soaked one.
• Roof-to-wall junctions on flat CBS homes. The combination of wind uplift and storm surge pushes water up under the roof edge on thousands of Miami homes built before 1992. The flashing detail is where the leak starts, and it’s the first thing we rebuild.
• Insurance-driven replacement gaps. Sailors never see this in inland Florida. Carriers here require documented wind mitigation to write or renew a policy. A new roof with upgraded clips, sealed seams, and proper fasteners can unlock a credit under Florida Statute 627.0629, but only if the deck and fasteners are done correctly.

Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami, FL

What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Miami

Roof costs in Miami break down by roof type, deck condition, and how close you are to the salt. Here’s a real-world breakdown for this market:

• Architectural shingle replacement (1,500-2,000 sq ft): $14,000-$22,000
• Standing-seam metal replacement (same footprint): $26,000-$38,000
• Flat/low-slope membrane replacement (CBS home): $12,000-$19,000
• Full deck replacement add-on: $3-$5 per sq ft
• Hot-dip fastener upgrade (vs. standard galvanized): $400-$800 per roof

Opening count matters less on roofs than on Window Installation - Miami, but wind zone and floor height absolutely move the number. A two-story home in Coconut Grove takes more labor, more safety equipment, and more wind-load engineering than a single-story in Hialeah. We price by the opening and the deck, not by what we think you’ll pay. Free in-home measure and written quote. That’s the close.

A Tale of Two Specs: Why the Cheap Roof Costs More Within a Decade

Here’s the thing about Miami that no one tells you until the roof fails. There are two versions of every roof replacement sold in this city, and the cheaper one is a trap. The inland-spec version uses standard galvanized fasteners, standard underlayment, and standard flashing. It meets Florida Building Code in Pensacola. It doesn’t meet Miami-Dade NOA, and it won’t survive a Biscayne Bay hurricane season without help.

The coastal-spec version costs 15 to 20 percent more. Marine-grade finishes, hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware, sealed roof-to-wall junctions, peel-and-stick underlayment, wind-load clips at every rafter. That version lasts. The cheap version shows rust at the fasteners inside eight years and starts leaking at the eaves by year ten. You’ll pay twice: once to the low bid, once to us to redo it right. A neighbor you can call at 2 a.m., and someone will actually answer.

On a 1962 CBS home in Westchester, our crew found the original roof’s galvanized fasteners had corroded to paper-thin stubs within a decade of salt exposure. Some were still standing, most were folded over. We stripped the deck to the sheathing, replaced every fastener with hot-dip galvanized ring-shank nails, and installed a Miami-Dade NOA peel-and-stick underlayment before the new standing-seam metal roof went on. The homeowner had lost two previous insurance carriers due to wind-mitigation gaps. After our replacement with upgraded clips and sealed seams, they qualified for a 35 percent premium credit under Florida Statute 627.0629. That’s the actual return on a coastal-spec roof in this city.

Florida Pays You Back

As of 2026, Florida offers a rare incentive stack for Miami homeowners who replace a roof with wind-mitigation upgrades:

• My Safe Florida Home matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation improvements. Roof replacement with a Miami-Dade NOA often qualifies.
• Florida sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors. It applies to most of the exterior-protection package we install.
• Federal 25C energy credit of 30 percent of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units.
• Windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of your policy after a wind-mitigation inspection. The inspection runs $75 to $150.

Programs and carriers set the final numbers, not us. But we’ll walk you through the documentation and make sure the roof spec aligns with what the inspection wants to see. That’s how you get the credit. And around here, wind-mitigation isn’t a bonus. It’s the difference between a policy you can afford and a letter that says your carrier is leaving Miami entirely.

One comparison worth making: a permanent impact-rated roof beats Miami Impact Windows and hurricane shutters every time. Shutters are panels in a garage that you have to hang when the storm hits. A Miami-Dade NOA roof works every hour of every day, whether you’re home or not. No panels, no ladders, no forgetting the hurricane is coming until the shelves at Publix are empty. It’s protection that doesn’t ask you to do anything.
