AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Miami Shores Homeowners
A full roof replacement in Miami Shores typically runs $14,000 to $38,000 depending on roof size, material, pitch, and the condition of the decking underneath. Most tear-off and re-roof projects in the Village take 3 to 7 working days once permits clear. Winslow Windows & Doors has been roofing homes across Miami-Dade and southern Broward since 2011, and we answer our own phone around the clock. Call (727) 483-7883 and you’ll get a live person, not a voicemail tree.
Roofs in Miami Shores don’t fail politely. They fail during a July afternoon squall or in the middle of hurricane season, when you need an answer, not a call-back. Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every roof we install. That means when you call, you get straight talk about what’s wrong, what it costs, and whether you actually need a full replacement or a targeted repair. We’ve built our reputation in neighborhoods like Miami Shores, Biscayne Park, El Portal, and the Upper East Side on one simple rule: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s not a marketing line. It’s the Done Right Promise, and it has been in writing since our first job in 2011.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement
Asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing material in Miami Shores, and for good reason: they’re cost-effective, easy to maintain, and when installed properly, they hold up remarkably well against South Florida’s sun and rain. A shingle replacement involves a full tear-off down to the decking, inspection of the wood beneath, fresh underlayment, and new architectural or three-tab shingles installed to manufacturer spec. Most shingle roofs in our climate last 15 to 25 years depending on ventilation, sun exposure, and whether the original installer cut corners on flashing. We pull the permits, handle the tear-off, haul every scrap, and leave your property cleaner than we found it.
Tile Roof Replacement
Tile roofs are everywhere in Miami Shores, especially on the Mediterranean and Spanish-style homes that define the Village’s character. Flat and barrel clay tile plus concrete tile carry a different weight load than shingles, which means the decking and trusses need to be evaluated before any work begins. We inspect every tile roof for cracked tiles, failed underlayment, and rusted fasteners, all of which are common after years of salt air and tropical humidity. Our crews set tile to Miami-Dade County high-velocity hurricane standards, because a tile roof that survives the next big storm is the only tile roof worth paying for.
Metal Roof Replacement
Standing-seam and 5V-crimp metal roofs have grown steadily in popularity across Miami Shores because they reflect heat, shrug off wind-driven rain, and routinely outlast shingle roofs by twenty years or more. A metal roof replacement includes precision panel cutting on-site, proper thermal expansion allowances, and flashing work that keeps water out of valleys and eaves. Metal is not a forgiving material for sloppy installers; a single misaligned seam becomes a leak the first time a squall hits. We measure twice, fabricate once, and stand behind the finished roof with the same promise we give on every job.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Replacement
Miami Shores has a surprising number of mid-century homes and additions with flat or low-slope roofs, and these demand a completely different waterproofing approach than pitched roofs. We install modified bitumen, TPO, and PVC membrane systems rated for the intense UV exposure and ponding patterns common in our area. Proper taper, drainage evaluation, and seam welding are the difference between a flat roof that lasts 20 years and one that blisters and fails in five. We map every drain, scupper, and penetration before we touch a single roll of membrane.
Storm Damage Roof Replacement
After a hurricane or severe thunderstorm, Miami Shores homeowners need honest damage assessment more than they need a sales pitch. Our team handles insurance-scope roofing: we document storm damage, meet with adjusters on-site, and replace only what actually needs replacing. If your roof can be repaired and legitimately restored, we’ll tell you. If the storm toasted it past the point of repair, we’ll show you exactly why and quote the replacement honestly. Same-day tarp and water mitigation is available when the situation calls for it.
Roof Decking Repair and Replacement
You can’t put a 20-year roof on rotted wood, and South Florida’s humidity and occasional leaks rot decking faster than most homeowners expect. During every replacement, we strip the old roof and walk the entire deck surface board by board, marking any plywood or OSB with spongy spots, delamination, or mold. Rotted sections are replaced with code-rated decking before a single shingle or tile goes down. This is the single most important step most budget roofers skip, and it’s the reason some Miami Shores roofs sag within five years.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
Winslow Windows & Doors installs roofing systems from the brands that have proven themselves in South Florida’s wind and sun, not from whichever supplier gave us the best spiff this quarter. We’re an authorized installer for eight premium product lines, and for roofing we lean heavily on materials engineered for high-velocity hurricane zones. Therma-Tru is better known for doors, but their roofing accessory line, including ridge vents and flashing systems, is what we install for proper attic ventilation on every shingle roof replacement. A roof deck that can’t breathe rots from the inside out, and venting matters as much as shingle quality.
For window replacement work we regularly handle ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, and Mr-Glass, and on homes where we’re replacing both the roof and the exterior envelope, we coordinate those installations so penetrations, flashings, and waterproof membranes all tie together properly. A new roof with old leaky skylights or poorly flashed windows is a half-done job. Whether you have a tile roof over custom ES Windows or a shingle roof waiting on new Mr-Glass units, our crews understand how all of it fits together, and we warranty the whole envelope, not just the shingles. If your existing roofing material is from another manufacturer, we work with it every day and we’ll give you an honest read on what’s salvageable and what’s ready for replacement.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Granules collecting in your gutters or at downspout elbows. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, and once you see them piling up, the shingles are past mid-life. In Miami Shores, where afternoon downpours and UV exposure work a roof hard, granular loss often precedes visible leaks by a year or two.
- Stains on ceilings or water lines running down interior walls. Water intrusion means the roof system has already been breached, and by the time you see the stain, the decking and insulation above are wet too. Miami Shores homes with older plywood decking rot quickly once moisture gets in, and the fix only gets more expensive the longer it waits.
- Cracked, slipped, or missing tiles after a storm. A single cracked tile can funnel rainwater into the underlayment for months without showing interior damage. When you see multiple cracked or shifted tiles on your Miami Shores roof, the underlayment is likely compromised in places you can’t see from the ground.
- Rust on metal roof panels or fasteners, especially near the eaves. Salt air and tropical humidity accelerate corrosion along the coast and throughout Miami-Dade. Rusted fasteners loosen, panels lift in wind, and the entire roof loses its high-velocity rating before you notice a leak.
- Daylight visible through your attic roof boards or spikes of heat in upstairs rooms. Gaps in the decking mean your roof envelope is compromised and your air conditioner is working against the Florida sun every afternoon. In a Miami Shores summer, a ventilated, sealed roof deck is the difference between a $200 power bill and a $600 one.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Initial phone conversation and honest scoping. You call (727) 483-7883 and describe what you’re seeing. We ask the right questions, walk you through what a replacement might involve for your roof type, and schedule a site visit. No pressure, no vague “we’ll have someone in your area” talk.
- 2
On-site inspection with documentation. A background-checked, uniformed Winslow technician arrives at your Miami Shores home, walks the full roof, checks the attic ventilation and decking condition from inside, and photographs everything. We measure the actual roof surface with laser tools, not satellite estimates, so your quote is based on reality.
- 3
Line-item written estimate, no vague numbers. You get a written quote that breaks out materials, tear-off, decking repair, underlayment, flashing, permits, and disposal as separate line items. If a second written estimate from a competitor comes in lower, we’ll review it with you at no charge. We’re confident in our numbers because they’re honest.
- 4
Permit application and scheduling. We pull all required Miami-Dade County and Village of Miami Shores permits ourselves, handle the inspections, and coordinate material delivery. You’ll know the start date, the expected duration, and who will be on your property every single day before the first truck arrives.
- 5
Tear-off, installation, and final walkthrough. Our crew removes the old roof, repairs the decking, installs the new system to manufacturer and code spec, and cleans the job site daily. When the work is done, Ed or a senior field supervisor walks the roof with you, answers every question, and leaves you with the Done Right Promise in writing.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Miami Shores?
Three factors move the final number more than anything else: decking replacement, roof complexity, and material grade. Rotted decking can add $2,000 to $6,000 to a typical job, and in Miami Shores, where many homes were built in the 1940s and 1950s, hidden decking damage is common. Roof pitch and the number of valleys, dormers, and penetrations also affect labor. Finally, architectural shingles with a high-velocity rating cost more per square than three-tab, but they last longer and hold up better in storms. The best way to avoid overpaying is to compare line-item bids, not bottom-line numbers. Our written estimates break out every cost so you can see exactly where your money goes, and our free second opinion on any written estimate means you’ll never wonder if you left money on the table.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami Shores
What exactly is a roof replacement versus a repair?
A roof replacement means removing the existing roofing material down to the decking and installing a completely new roofing system, whereas a repair addresses isolated damage like a few cracked tiles or a single leak. In Miami Shores, roofs over 15 years old with widespread granule loss, multiple leaks, or storm damage usually warrant a full replacement. We’ll give you an honest assessment of which route makes financial sense for your specific roof. For a straight answer, call (727) 483-7883.
How long does a roof replacement take in Miami Shores?
Most asphalt shingle replacements take 3 to 5 working days, while tile and metal roofs usually run 5 to 7 days depending on size and weather. Permitting through the Village of Miami Shores and Miami-Dade County typically adds one to two weeks before the start date. We’ll give you a confirmed timeline at the estimate stage so you’re never guessing when the crew will arrive. If you’re planning around a specific date, call us and we’ll talk schedules.
How much does a tile roof replacement cost in Miami Shores?
A tile roof replacement in Miami Shores typically costs $24,000 to $38,000, depending on roof size, tile profile, decking condition, and whether custom flashing is needed around chimneys or skylights. Concrete tile runs on the lower end of that range, while clay barrel tile sits at the higher end. We’ll quote it line by line so you know exactly what drives the number, and we’ll review any competitor estimate with you for free.
Do you install metal roofs in Miami Shores?
Yes, we install standing-seam and 5V-crimp metal roofing systems rated for Miami-Dade’s high-velocity hurricane zone. Metal costs more upfront than shingles but typically lasts 30 to 50 years and reflects a significant amount of South Florida heat. We’ll walk you through the cost-to-lifespan math during the estimate so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.
Are you available for emergency roof situations?
We answer our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If an afternoon storm rips off shingles or a branch punctures your roof, call (727) 483-7883 immediately and we’ll guide you through temporary protection while we assess the damage. In dangerous situations involving a compromised roof structure, stay out of the affected area and wait for our crew to make it safe before we start any repair or replacement work.
What warranty comes with a Winslow roof replacement?
Every roof replacement we install carries the manufacturer’s material warranty plus our workmanship commitment backed by the Done Right Promise. If we didn’t do it right, we come back and make it right. That promise has been in place since our first year in business, 2011, and it’s not going anywhere. Ed Winslow owns this company and his name is attached to every job we finish.
How should I prepare for a roof replacement?
Clear vehicles from the driveway, move backyard furniture away from the roofline, and let your neighbors know the crew will be working for a few days. We protect your landscaping, set up daily cleanup, and keep one point of contact on-site throughout the project so you always know what’s happening. We’ll also walk through any HOA requirements in Miami Shores before we start. For any other questions, call us directly.
