Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Coral Gables’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company

Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name still goes on every quote, every permit, and every roof we install. Coral Gables homeowners tell us the same thing again and again: they want one company that actually shows up, answers the phone, and doesn’t hand work off to a rotating cast of subcontractors. That is exactly how we run things. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and the crew lead on your roof knows your name before the first tile comes off.

We work across Coral Gables constantly, from the estate streets off Old Cutler Road to the 1920s casitas near the Biltmore and the bayfront lots along Tahiti Beach and Gables Estates. That local repetition matters. We know which roofing assemblies the city’s building department flags, which styles the Board of Architects pushes back on, and how long permit review is running right now. You don’t learn that from a call center in another state. You learn it by doing the work here, week after week, since before the current code cycle was even drafted.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation team coordinates directly from our South Florida office, so scheduling and material orders are handled by people who know your neighborhood, not a national dispatch desk. When you call, a live person answers. At 2 p.m. or 2 a.m. No voicemail loop.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Coral Gables

Full Roof Replacement

We tear off and replace roofs throughout Coral Gables, including homes in the city’s designated historic districts. On a full replacement, we handle the permit application, the HVHZ product approvals, and the Board of Architects submittal when the district requires it. We install architectural shingle, barrel tile, flat tile, and standing seam metal, with underlayment and fastening patterns built to Miami-Dade HVHZ standards. Most full replacements in Coral Gables run 3 to 8 working days once the roof is torn off and the permit card is posted.

New Roof Installation on Additions and New Construction

If you’re adding a second story or building new on a lot near Cocoplum or Hammock Oaks, the roof plan has to clear two reviews: structural under Miami-Dade HVHZ and aesthetic under the city’s Board of Architects. We coordinate both. Our team installs new roofing systems on additions and ground-up builds throughout Coral Gables, including custom flashings for the low-pitch barrel-tile profiles common to the Mediterranean Revival style. Getting the roof right on a new build means fewer stop-work orders later.

Tile Roof Repair and Re-Roofing

Many Coral Gables homes, especially those built before 1950 along streets like Alhambra Circle and Sevilla Avenue, feature original barrel tile or flat Spanish tile. Some of it is still doing its job. Much of it is not. We repair and, when the underlayment has failed, we re-roof using tile profiles that match the original profile and color range so the Board of Architects has no reason to object. Tile re-roofing in Coral Gables almost always includes new reinforced underlayment, because the old hot-mop or felt layers on 1930s roofs are rarely worth keeping.

Metal Roof Installation

Standing seam metal is gaining ground in Coral Gables, especially on mid-century ranches and the modern infill homes popping up south of Bird Road. Metal carries a Miami-Dade NOA when installed to spec, and it sheds hurricane-driven rain better than almost anything else. We install concealed-fastener standing seam systems with marine-grade hardware suited to the salt air that rolls in off Biscayne Bay. For bayfront homes along Arvida Parkway and Tahiti Beach, that hardware selection is the difference between a roof that lasts 20 years and one that starts corroding in five.

Trusted Brands We Service in Coral Gables

We install and service roofing systems that meet the state’s strictest product approval standards. Our work is backed by manufacturers including PGT, CGI, and we stock common profiles and materials for Coral Gables jobs so we’re not waiting on freight every time a homeowner needs a repair before closing or before a storm. Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for eight premium brands, which gives our Coral Gables customers access to full manufacturer warranties. We do not install off-brand panels with unverifiable NOAs, and we will not cut a corner on a roof that has to protect your family through the next hurricane season.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Coral Gables Homes

• HVHZ non-compliant re-roofs from out-of-town crews. We’ve torn off roofs in Coral Gables that were installed with non-NOA underlayment and fasteners by crews that didn’t know Miami-Dade code. The roof looked fine from the street. It would have peeled off in a Category 2.
• Board of Architects rejections on material and color. A roofer can pull a structural permit and still get stopped mid-job when the Board of Architects notes the tile profile or color doesn’t match the street’s Mediterranean character. We run that review before we order materials.
• Failed underlayment on 1920s-1940s barrel tile roofs. The tile on those original Coral Gables roofs often outlasts the felt underneath. We see widespread moisture staining on roof decks where the tile looks perfectly fine from the ground.
• Salt corrosion on bayfront fasteners and flashing. Homes east of Old Cutler Road, especially near the water, eat standard galvanized flashing. Marine-grade stainless flashing and fasteners cost more upfront, but they keep the roof envelope intact far longer in Coral Gables’s salt-laden air.

Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Coral Gables, FL

What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Coral Gables

Here are real numbers from recent Coral Gables jobs. A standard architectural shingle re-roof on a 2,000 square foot ranch-style home near Riviera Golf Estates typically runs $14,000 to $18,000. A barrel tile roof on a Mediterranean Revival home in the French Normandy Village or near the Biltmore lands between $22,000 and $30,000, because the tile itself is expensive and the underlayment spec is higher. Standing seam metal on a mid-century home near Coral Bay comes in at $18,000 to $26,000 depending on seam profile and the pitch. Board of Architects review and any required material or color changes add $1,500 to $4,000 in drawings, submittals, and premium materials. Permits in Coral Gables and Miami-Dade run $500 to $1,500 depending on valuation.

What moves the price: roof pitch and complexity, tear-off depth (some homes have two or three old layers), the tile or metal profile you choose, and whether the decking below is rotted. Call (727) 291-4678 and we’ll measure, inspect the deck, and hand you a written quote.

Florida Pays You Back

There are real incentives right now for hardening your roof in Coral Gables. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 toward qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including roof-to-wall connections and secondary water barriers. Florida exempts sales tax on impact-resistant windows, doors, and certain roofing products. The federal 25C energy credit can return 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. After a wind-mitigation inspection (about $75 to $150), many Coral Gables homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by roughly 25%. We cannot guarantee what your carrier will do, and every program has qualifying rules we’ll help you verify. But the stack of incentives is real, and we’ll document your installation so you can claim every dollar you’re owed.

The Coral Gables Compliance Problem Most Contractors Ignore

Here is the thing about reroofing in Coral Gables that no other page will tell you plainly: this is the only city in Miami-Dade where a roof that passes Miami-Dade HVHZ structural review can still be rejected for aesthetic reasons. The city’s Board of Architects has jurisdiction over the visual character of every roof visible from the street in the city’s historic districts and many of its Mediterranean Revival neighborhoods. That means tile color, profile, and even the way flashing is detailed can be grounds for a stop-work order. A roofer who slaps on any approved tile in a color that clashes with the street ends up pulling it off. We submit the Board of Architects package before materials are ordered. It costs a little more up front and saves a lot of rework.

This page is the only resource that maps Coral Gables’ Board of Architects aesthetic mandates onto Miami-Dade HVHZ impact-rating requirements specifically for roof replacement and installation. The next closest thing is reading the city code and the product approval database side by side, which nobody should have to do at 11 p.m. before a storm.

A Riviera Drive Story That Explains Why We Work Here the Way We Do

On Riviera Drive, our crew removed a 1938 steel casement window that had been mortared directly into the coral rock wall with no frame buck. A standard removal with a reciprocating saw would have shattered the hand-carved limestone surround. We used an angle grinder and cold chisel instead, preserving every inch of that ornate stone exactly as the Board of Architects photographed it during inspection. Then we installed a PGT impact-rated casement with a Miami-Dade NOA and a divided-lite pattern that matched the original. That job taught us what every Coral Gables contractor should already know: the structure and the aesthetics are not separate jobs here. They are the same job. That is the level of care we bring to your roof.
