PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Hialeah: What to Know First
We’re an independent PGT service provider in Hialeah, and we handle shingle, tile, and metal roofing work on PGT-equipped homes across the city. Most shingle and tile repairs take one day on site; full roof replacements typically run three to five working days depending on the scope and Hialeah’s permitting schedule. Our estimates are free, the price we quote is the price you pay, and we don’t charge a trip fee anywhere inside Hialeah.

This page is for Hialeah homeowners who own a PGT roof system and need straight answers: what fails, what it costs, and who can actually fix it without voiding the warranty. If you’re dealing with a leak, missing tile, lifted metal flashing, or storm damage, call (850) 998-3090 and a live person answers. Ed Winslow built this company in 2011 so Hialeah had a local roof and exterior specialist that didn’t hand work off to subcontractors who’d never done PGT before.
How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
PGT makes a solid product, but every roof system in South Florida eventually shows wear. Here’s what we see most often on PGT shingle, tile, and metal roofs in Hialeah, and what we do about it.
- Shingle delamination on older PGT shingle lines. Hialeah’s sun cooks shingles hard, and we often see the adhesive strip break down long before the granule layer wears thin. The shingle looks whole from the ground, but wind gets under the mat and lifts it. We don’t spot-repair delaminated shingles on the cheap; we replace the affected section and reseat the surrounding course so the seam doesn’t telegraph through.
- Tile slippage from corroded fasteners on barrel and flat tile profiles. Original installs sometimes used plain steel nails instead of stainless. After a few Hialeah summer storm cycles, the nails rust and the tile drops or cracks. We refasten with stainless hardware and replace chipped tiles with matching profile and color where the local supply houses carry them, or OEM-spec through PGT channels if you need exact match.
- Flashing failure at metal roof seams and penetrations. Metal expands and contracts constantly under the Hialeah sun. We regularly see original lap seals split open around skylights, vents, and hips. We strip the old butyl, rebed with a high-temp sealant rated for metal roofing, and reset the flashing so water sheds away from the seam instead of pooling.
- Underlayment rot under tile roofs. Tile can look pristine while the underlayment below is shot. PGT tile systems rely on the underlayment as the true waterproof layer; the tile is the armor. When we find soft spots near eaves or valleys, we lift the tile, replace the affected underlayment section, and re-lay the tile. This is a two-person job minimum; anyone who says differently is cutting a corner.
- Ridge cap failure on shingle and tile roofs. Ridge caps take the full brunt of Hialeah’s afternoon thunderstorms. We often replace cracked ridge cap shingles and rebed ridge tiles with a mortar mix that can handle South Florida’s humidity cycle without cracking out in a season.
Our PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process
Every PGT job we do in Hialeah follows the same discipline, whether it’s a small leak or a full reroof:
- 1
You call (850) 998-3090. A live person answers, day or night. We take your address, ask what you’re seeing, and schedule a time to look.
- 2
We walk the roof, not the driveway. Ed or one of our background-checked techs goes up and documents what’s actually failing. Photos, elevation, the whole picture. Then we show you what we found before we write a number down.
- 3
Parts decision. If it’s warrantied work, we use OEM PGT materials. If warranty’s expired or the part isn’t available OEM anymore, we tell you exactly what the aftermarket option is and why we’d run it, and we give you the choice in writing.
- 4
Repair or replace, done by our crew. No subcontracted mystery crew. Uniformed techs who’ve worked PGT product before.
- 5
Water test and walkthrough. We hose-test the repair if water entry was involved. You inspect it with us before we pack up.
- 6
Done right, or we come back. Every PGT job carries the Done Right Promise. If it’s not right, we make it right. My name’s on the truck and on the warranty – that’s not something I take lightly.

Why Hialeah Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for PGT Work
Ed Winslow grew up in Westland, in Hialeah proper, spending summers helping his uncle patch windows on the old concrete-block homes that line those streets. That’s not marketing fluff; it’s why he never lost patience for detail work. He trained at Miami Dade College’s Wolfson Campus and spent years in the field across South Florida before opening Winslow Windows & Doors in 2011.
Here’s what that means for your PGT roof: we know PGT’s product lines because we’ve already fixed the failures on them, not because we read a spec sheet. And if your roof’s problem isn’t a PGT-branded component, we also work with CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems products, so you don’t get a shrug and an invoice anyway. Every PGT job is covered by our Done Right Promise, our techs are background-checked and uniformed, and our address and license number are published. No shell companies. No call centers. The one down the road.
FAQs
No. We’re an independent PGT service provider, not a factory-authorized dealer, so warranty-covered parts and materials remain your right to claim through PGT. We install to PGT’s published specifications and use OEM materials when required so your claim stands. If your warranty’s expired, we’ll recommend the most sensible part for the job and tell you why.
We answer the phone live, 24/7, and we schedule Hialeah calls as soon as we can get a tech to your address. A small active leak often gets tarped or temporarily sealed the day you call; the permanent repair follows once we’ve diagnosed it properly, usually within days, not weeks. Call (850) 998-3090 and you’ll talk to a person, not a recording.
We repair first. A lot of Hialeah tile roofs need a few tiles reset, a valley re-flashed, or a section of underlayment replaced, not a full reroof. We’ll tell you if replacement is actually necessary, and we’ll show you the evidence on your own roof before you decide.
No. The quote is line-itemed and fixed. The only way the number moves is if you ask us to add work we couldn’t have seen when pricing it, and we’ll get your approval before we do any of it.
Yes, permanent 10% off for seniors and veterans, and $40 off any repair over $200. Those are standing offers, not seasonal gimmicks. Call us at (850) 998-3090 and we’ll apply them to your quote.
