AfterFast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Miami Lakes
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Miami Lakes typically runs $9,500 to $38,000 for a full replacement, with most CBS ranch homes in the 1,800 to 2,400 square-foot range landing between $14,000 and $24,000. That’s a real number, not a vague ballpark. We’re Winslow Windows & Doors. Ed Winslow’s name is on the business, and our roofing crews work Miami Lakes weekly. Call (850) 998-3090 and you’ll speak to a live person, not a voicemail tree.
Key Takeaways:
- Miami Lakes sits in Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every roof must meet HVHZ fastening and product standards, not Florida’s lighter statewide code.
- Tile roofs on 1960s-1980s CBS homes often have failing underlayment long before the tile itself looks bad.
- We give written, line-item quotes before work starts. No change orders. No surprises on the invoice.
- The Done Right Promise covers every roof we install. If it’s not done right, we make it right.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Miami Lakes’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company
Miami Lakes is not a generic South Florida suburb. It’s one of the original master-planned communities in the state, built block by block by the Graham Companies from 1962 through the 1980s. That means the housing stock is predictable, but it’s also aging in a very specific way. Tile roofs installed forty or fifty years ago are now sitting on underlayment that has quietly degraded. Shingle roofs original to the 1970s and early 1980s are well past their service life. We see this every week on streets off Miami Lakes Drive, from the Lakes on the Green area up to Royal Oaks. Knowing the housing stock means our estimates are accurate the first time. You won’t get a contractor who has to “check and get back to you” after seeing the roof for the first time. We already know what Miami Lakes roofs look like in 2026.
We’ve been in business since 2011, locally owned and owner-operated. Ed Winslow runs a published address and license number, not a shell company. Every technician who steps onto a Miami Lakes roof is background-checked and in uniform. You know who’s at your door before the truck parks. And when you call at any hour, a live person picks up.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Miami Lakes
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing team handles full replacements, repairs, and retrofit work across Miami Lakes. Here’s what that looks like on the ground.
Full Roof Replacement in Miami Lakes
Most Miami Lakes homes were built before current HVHZ fastening requirements. A full replacement means stripping the old material, checking the decking, and installing a new system that meets Miami-Dade’s wind-load standards. We do this for shingle, tile, and metal, and we handle the permit and inspection process from start to finish.
Tile Roof Repair and Underlayment Replacement
Concrete and clay tile roofs are common in Miami Lakes, especially on the larger homes in the Royale Green and Satori neighborhoods. The tile itself often looks fine. The underlayment underneath, not so much. We remove the tile, replace the underlayment with a modern high-temperature peel-and-stick system, and reset the tile. Most Miami Lakes tile roofs need this about every 20 to 25 years given our humidity and storm cycle.
Shingle Roof Replacement
Asphalt shingle roofs in Miami Lakes take a beating from flat-topography wind and relentless summer heat. We install architectural shingles rated for Miami-Dade wind zones, with six-nail fastening patterns and full synthetic underlayment. A typical Miami Lakes ranch in the 1,600 to 2,200 square-foot range runs $9,500 to $16,000 depending on tear-off and decking condition.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and stone-coated steel metal roofs are growing in Miami Lakes, especially on homes the owners plan to keep for another twenty years. Metal handles Miami-Dade wind loads better than almost anything else, and it drops attic temperatures enough that you’ll notice the cooling bill difference. Expect $22,000 to $38,000 for a full standing-seam metal roof on an average Miami Lakes home.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami Lakes
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and CWS roofing and impact products, which matters when you need a Miami-Dade NOA number that passes inspection the first time. We stock common fasteners and underlayment locally for quick turnaround on Miami Lakes jobs. No waiting on a truck from Orlando because a supplier forgot a ridge cap.
Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Miami Lakes Homes
- Failed tile underlayment. Miami Lakes’s year-round Everglades humidity pushes moisture under tile roofs, and once the old felt underlayment cracks, water gets to the decking. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the decking has been wet for months.
- Wind-torn shingles on flat-topography blocks. Miami Lakes has zero wind break. A Category 1 storm pushes full wind loads across every street. Shingles installed with four nails or on old decking peel off fast.
- Flashing failures at chimney and wall intersections. The 1960s and 1970s CBS homes have original flashing that has rusted through. We see this consistently on homes along NW 67th Avenue and Miami Lakes Drive.
- Non-compliant prior repairs. Out-of-area roofers sometimes patch Miami Lakes roofs with products that lack Miami-Dade NOA approval. The repair holds for a season, then fails inspection or leaks. A lot of our work is correcting other people’s shortcuts.
Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Miami Lakes, FL
Asphalt shingle replacement in Miami Lakes runs $9,500 to $18,000 for most homes. Concrete tile replacement, including new underlayment, runs $18,000 to $32,000. Standing-seam metal runs $22,000 to $38,000. These are installed prices, including tear-off, permits, and inspection. What moves the number: roof complexity, decking replacement, whether you need a full tear-out vs. a recover, and the product line you choose. A two-story home off Commerce Way with a steep pitch will cost more than a ranch off Miami Lakeway. Call (850) 998-3090 for a written quote. The estimate is free, whether or not you hire us.
What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Miami Lakes
We just covered roof numbers. But since many Miami Lakes homeowners are tackling the full exterior at once, here’s where impact window pricing sits in the same market. Impact windows generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed. Single-hung impact units run $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings run $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages run $8,000 to $25,000 and up, depending on opening count and floor height. In Miami Lakes, second-story work and jalousie tear-outs push the number higher because those original aluminum frames require full removal to the CBS block, not a simple insert. We do a free in-home measure and give you a written line-item quote before any work starts.
Florida Pays You Back
The incentives stack if you plan the work right. My Safe Florida Home offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida has a sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150, many homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. We don’t control these programs, and final numbers come from your carrier. But we know the paperwork and we’ll help you document everything properly.
The Miami Lakes Compliance Burden Nobody Warns You About
Here’s the thing that makes Miami Lakes different from a lot of South Florida. Because the whole community was built as a master-planned development between 1962 and the 1980s, the housing stock is uniformly old, uniformly CBS, and uniformly filled with pre-Hurricane-Andrew aluminum single-pane and jalousie windows. Those windows predate all impact requirements. But every single replacement must satisfy Miami-Dade County’s HVHZ Notice of Acceptance standards, the strictest window and door approval regime in the United States. A window that is legal in Broward or Palm Beach may get flatly rejected at a Miami-Dade inspection if it lacks a Miami-Dade NOA number. Out-of-area contractors get caught on this constantly on Miami Lakes jobs. We don’t. Every product we install in Miami Lakes carries the right NOA before it goes on the truck.
A Quiet Street Off NW 67th Avenue
We replaced a wall of original jalousie windows in a 1970s ranch with PGT impact-rated casements carrying Miami-Dade NOA #09-0805.07. The old aluminum frames had oxidized so badly in the Everglades humidity that we had to do a full tear-out to the CBS block, not an insert. The new low-E insulated glass units cut the owner’s summer cooling load by roughly 25% and brought the home into HVHZ compliance. That’s the kind of job Miami Lakes throws at you, and it’s the kind we do regularly.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Miami Lakes
Yes, a Florida Product Approval alone is not enough in Miami Lakes. Miami-Dade County requires a Notice of Acceptance, which is a separate county-level product approval. Many products carry both, but the NOA is what the inspector checks. Call (850) 998-3090 and we’ll verify your product carries the right numbers before we order anything.
In most Miami Lakes homes, full tear-out is required. The original aluminum jalousie and single-pane frames from the 1960s and 1970s were set into CBS openings that are often not square, and the old frames are frequently corroded. Insert replacement would trap the corrosion and fail inspection. Full tear-out to the block, with new framing and impact-rated installation, is the standard here.
Miami Lakes is in the HVHZ wind zone, so windows must meet Miami-Dade County impact standards for large and small missile testing. This applies to every window, not just those facing the street. We install products with design pressures matched to the opening, never above +/-100, and always with the correct NOA for your exact configuration.
Many Miami Lakes homeowners see a meaningful reduction on the windstorm portion of their premium after a wind-mitigation inspection confirms impact-rated openings. The inspection runs $75 to $150, and the credit averages around 25% on that windstorm portion. Your carrier sets the final number. We’ll provide the documentation your inspector needs.
Miami Lakes sits inland close to the Everglades, and the humidity is heavier and more persistent than the coastal-breeze-dried air further east. That constant moisture accelerates aluminum frame oxidation, which causes jalousie and single-pane units to seize or drop glass panes. It’s a local condition we deal with constantly. The fix is full replacement with corrosion-resistant frames and impact-rated glass.
