AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Miami Lakes
A full roof replacement in Miami Lakes typically runs from $12,000 to $28,000 for a standard single-family home, with tile roofs at the higher end and shingle roofs at the lower end. Most jobs take one to three weeks once materials arrive, depending on roof size and whether the existing roof needs a complete tear-off.

We know Miami Lakes. We know that the homes along Northwest 67th Avenue and the streets branching off Miami Lakes Drive were built to endure South Florida weather, but their roofs were not. The original concrete tile and shingle systems on many 1960s through 1980s homes are simply at the end of their service life, and the afternoon thunderstorms that roll through from the Everglades don’t wait for anyone to get around to repairs. When you call Winslow Windows & Doors, you reach a team that works in this town every week, understands the permitting process at the Miami Lakes building department, and quotes the job accurately the first time.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Miami Lakes’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and Ed’s name is on the door – and on every job we do. Homeowners in Miami Lakes call us because we answer the phone at 2 a.m. with a live person, we show up in uniform with a background-checked crew, and we don’t hide behind a ticket number. Our Done Right Promise means that if the work isn’t right, we make it right. Period. No fine print, no “the warranty department will be in touch.”
Miami Lakes is not a generic market to us. The windy corridors near Main Street shopping center, the lakefront homes off Lake Patricia, the townhome clusters near Graham Dairy Road – these are real places we’ve worked, and we understand how local building codes and HOA requirements differ from block to block. Our Roof Replacement & Installation team has replaced roofs on everything from modest 1970s CBS ranches to newer two-story builder homes in the communities around Miami Lakes Park.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Miami Lakes
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingle roofs remain the most cost-effective full replacement for Miami Lakes homeowners working with a budget. A typical 1,800-square-foot single-story CBS home in Miami Lakes runs $12,000 to $16,000 for a complete tear-off and replacement with a 30-year architectural shingle. We strip the old roof to the deck, inspect and replace any rotted sheathing, install a secondary water barrier, and finish with shingles rated for South Florida wind speeds.
Tile Roof Replacement
Flat concrete tile and barrel S-tile dominate the original roofs on Miami Lakes homes built in the 1970s and 1980s. Full tile roof replacement in Miami Lakes runs $20,000 to $28,000 for a typical home. The cost reflects the weight and the labor – tile roofs require a heavier inspection of the deck and framing, and Miami-Dade’s HVHZ requirements mean every tile must be mechanically fastened or adhered to code. We match existing tile profiles when possible and handle the full permit process so the work passes inspection the first time.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and stone-coated metal roofs are increasingly popular in Miami Lakes, particularly on lakefront properties where homeowners want a 50-year roof that shrugs off wind-driven rain. A metal roof installation in Miami Lakes typically runs $22,000 to $32,000 depending on the panel profile and roof complexity. Metal handles the daily humidity cycling and seasonal storms without the seal failures and fastener issues we see on aging tile systems.
Roof Tear-Off and Underlayment Replacement
Some Miami Lakes roofs fail not at the top layer but at the underlayment – the modified bitumen or synthetic layer that actually keeps water out. On homes where the tile or shingles are still sound but the underlayment is shot, we do a full tear-off, replace the underlayment with a modern high-performance system, and reset or replace the top layer. In the townhome clusters around the interior lakes, we routinely see original 1970s underlayment that has turned brittle and cracked, letting water reach the CBS deck during heavy summer storms.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami Lakes
Winslow Windows & Doors installs roof systems built for Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and we stock the fasteners, underlayments, and flashing details our Miami Lakes customers need without a special-order delay. We are authorized installers for eight premium brands, including Therma-Tru for exterior door systems, and ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass for impact-rated glazing. That means when a Miami Lakes customer needs a matching impact-rated attic vent, hurricane tie-down, or replacement skylight, we source it through approved channels and install it under warranty, not through a gray-market supplier. We stand behind every product with our Done Right Promise.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Miami Lakes Homes
- HVHZ underlayment failures on original 1970s roofs. Miami Lakes sits entirely within Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and the standard underlayment used on original builds does not meet today’s HVHZ requirements. We remove the old system completely and install a modern double-layer underlayment that satisfies Miami-Dade code.
- Cracked and displaced barrel tiles after afternoon thunderstorms. The daily summer storm cycle in Miami Lakes exposes tiles that were never properly fastened. A single cracked tile can let water reach the underlayment, and by the time you see the ceiling stain, the deck may already have rot.
- Wind-lifted shingles near the lake corridors. Homes along Northwest 87th Avenue and around Lake Patricia get stronger wind gusts than interior streets. Original three-tab shingles and poorly installed architectural shingles lift at the edges, and once the adhesive seal breaks, the roof sheds water during the next storm.
- Seal failures around roof penetrations and skylights. Miami Lakes has a large stock of 1980s homes with original skylights, plumbing boots, and attic vent flashings. We see cracked boots and failed sealant on nearly every teardown in the 33014 and 33016 ZIP codes. Every replacement includes new flashing details per current Miami-Dade code.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami Lakes, FL
Roof replacement in Miami Lakes is priced by the square, by the roof complexity, and by the finish system. Shingle roofs run roughly $5.50 to $8.00 per square foot installed, including tear-off, underlayment, and finish. Tile roofs run $9.00 to $14.00 per square foot installed. Metal standing-seam runs $11.00 to $16.00 per square foot. A 2,000-square-foot home with a simple hip roof will land at the lower end; a home with multiple valleys, dormers, or a steep pitch will land higher. Each quote is a written line-item estimate, and the price we give you is the price you pay – no change orders unless you change the scope. We offer $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Miami Lakes
For a standard Miami Lakes home, expect these ranges: a full shingle tear-off and replacement on a 1,800-square-foot home runs $12,000 to $16,000; a tile roof replacement runs $20,000 to $28,000; and a metal roof runs $22,000 to $32,000. Larger homes, homes with original clay tile that must be matched, or roofs with multiple levels and complex flashing details push costs higher. The single biggest factor in Miami Lakes is whether the original roof framing can support the replacement system without added reinforcement – especially tile, which is heavy and requires a deck and truss check to current HVHZ design pressures. We measure every opening, every slope, and every penetration during the free estimate. Call (727) 604-9322 to schedule your in-home measure and get a written quote you can compare line by line.
Florida Pays You Back
Roof replacement in Miami Lakes can tap into real financial help. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including roof-to-wall connections and secondary water barriers installed during a roof replacement. Florida waives sales tax on impact-resistant building materials used in qualifying upgrades. The federal 25C energy credit can return 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient roof products. And after a wind-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150), many Miami Lakes homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by roughly 25% on the windstorm portion. Programs and carriers set final numbers – we help you document everything properly, but we never guarantee a specific credit or premium number.
One comparison worth making: a full impact-rated roof replacement versus patching and installing hurricane shutters only when a storm threatens. Shutters protect glass, but they do nothing for the roof deck, the underlayment, or the structural tie-downs. In Miami Lakes, where the HVHZ wind pressures demand a roof that stays attached and sheds water during a named storm, a proper replacement is permanent protection, not something you wrestle onto windows at the last hour. Big-box roof installs often skip the Miami-Dade NOA product verification on every component; a licensed impact specialist documents each layer to the local permitting office.

FAQs – Roof Replacement & Installation in Miami Lakes
A full shingle roof replacement in Miami Lakes runs $12,000 to $16,000 for a typical 1,800-square-foot home, while tile roofs run $20,000 to $28,000 and metal roofs run $22,000 to $32,000. The final number depends on the roof size, pitch, the number of valleys and penetrations, and whether the existing deck and trusses need repair before the new roof goes on. Call (727) 604-9322 for an exact written quote – estimates are free.
Yes – every roof assembly installed in Miami Lakes must meet Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements, and the products must carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance approvals where applicable. A Florida Product Approval alone is not sufficient for HVHZ work in Miami Lakes; the local permitting office checks product approvals specifically. We supply the NOA documentation with every permit application.
Only if the deck reveals damage that was invisible before tear-off – rotted sheathing, failed truss connections, or termite damage. When that happens, we stop work, show you pictures and measurements, and get your written sign-off on the added scope before spending another dollar. No silent change orders. Most Miami Lakes tear-offs do reveal some deck repair, and we plan for it conservatively in the initial quote.
A standard shingle teardown and replacement on a Miami Lakes home takes three to five working days once materials are on-site. Tile roofs take one to two weeks. Permit approval from the Miami Lakes building department typically adds one to two weeks before demolition begins. Weather delays are real – we work around the daily summer storms and never leave a deck exposed overnight without full tarp protection.
Yes, every roof replacement in Miami Lakes is permitted through the Miami-Dade County permitting process and inspected by the local building department. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and confirm final sign-off before we consider the job complete. Call (727) 604-9322 to get started.
