Our phone, (786) 892-8191, is answered 24/7, so you can call as soon as you find the problem. It helps to know your roof type (tile, shingle, flat or metal) and roughly how old the roof is. Photos of the roof taken from the ground, and of any ceiling stains, are useful. If you plan to involve your insurer, have your policy details and any claim number to hand.

We start by talking through what you are seeing and where. At the property, the roof is inspected to trace any leak to its entry point, the damage is photographed with the date, and we explain which permit office covers your address. You then get a written, itemized estimate for the work the roof actually needs.

Usually not. Most leaks come from one failed part: a flashing joint, a pipe boot, a cracked tile or an aged underlayment section. Finding the entry point comes first, and replacement only makes sense when the evidence shows the roof system is worn out across the board.

Start with the roof's age and the date of its last permit, then the extent of the damage. In Miami-Dade, a roof installed under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later can usually be repaired in sections even when the damage passes 25%. Older roofs and widespread underlayment failure are where replacement starts to make more sense.

On tile roofs especially, the tile you can see is not the waterproof layer. The underlayment beneath it is, and it can fail while the tiles stay intact. Water can also travel along the deck before it drips, so the stain inside is often a few feet from the actual leak.

It depends on the material, the installation and how many storm seasons it has been through. No single number fits, because sun, wind and rain affect each roof differently. For insurance purposes, a roof that is 15 years or older can be inspected to show its remaining useful life.

The City of Miami requires a building permit for all roofing work on residential and commercial properties. If your home is in unincorporated Miami-Dade, the County issues the roofing permit; if it is in another municipality, that city's building department does. Confirm which office covers your address before the job starts.

Ask for a written, itemized estimate, dated photos of the damage, the permit office for your address and the product approval numbers for every material. Ask whether a repair would solve the problem before discussing replacement. Clear answers to those questions are a better guide than any slogan.

That depends on your policy and the cause of the damage, and only your insurer can answer it. Coverage questions belong with your insurer or a public adjuster you hire. Keep in mind that you are responsible for your insurance deductible, and that a dated inspection report with photos makes any conversation with your insurer easier.

This site does not publish review counts, star ratings or years in business. Instead, here is what you can ask of any roofer, and check for yourself. Our address is 22510 SW 172nd Ct, Miami, FL 33170, and our phone number is (786) 892-8191. Those details are the same on every page of this site. Ask for the permit number once the permit is issued, and look it up with the office that issued it. Ask for the product approval number of every roofing product going on your house. In Miami-Dade, residents are told to look for the "Miami-Dade County Product Approved" mark on roofing materials. A roofer who cannot give you those numbers is asking you to take everything else on trust. Ask for the estimate in writing, itemized, before you sign anything. Ask for photos of the damage taken during the inspection, with the date. Ask which permit office covers your address. None of these requests are unusual, and the answers tell you a great deal about how the job will be run.

This is the question competing roofing pages in Miami skip, and it is the one that most changes what you pay. For years Florida homeowners heard a simple version of the rule: if 25% or more of a roof is repaired or replaced within a year, the whole roof has to be brought up to the current building code. That pushed many owners into full replacements after partial storm damage. Florida changed this in 2022. Under section 553.844(5) of the Florida Statutes, if your existing roof or roof section was built, repaired or replaced in compliance with the 2007 Florida Building Code or a later edition, and 25% or more of it is repaired, replaced or recovered, only the portion being worked on has to meet the current code. The rest of the roof can stay as it is. So the first thing that matters is the age of your roof system, not just the size of the damage. Here is how a Miami-Dade homeowner can work through it: 1. Find the date of the last full roof permit. The permit record shows when the current roof went on and under which code. 2. Have the damaged area measured against the whole roof, by section. 3. If the roof was permitted on or after March 1, 2009, when the 2007 code took effect, a repair limited to the damaged sections is usually allowed, even past 25%. 4. If the roof is older, a large repair can trigger wider code work, so ask for the cost of repair and the cost of replacement side by side. There is a second rule worth knowing. When an existing roof on a site-built single-family home in Miami-Dade is replaced, hurricane mitigation rules apply. Roof-deck attachment and a secondary water barrier are required on every such reroof. Roof-to-wall connections are added only for homes with an insured value (or, if uninsured, a just value) of $300,000 or more, and only where they can be completed for about 15% of the reroof cost (F.S. 553.844). Those items belong in any honest comparison between repairing and replacing.
