AfterFast, Reliable Roof Repair Across Kendall
Roof repair in Kendall, FL typically runs $350 to $1,200 for common leaks and flashing work, while larger repairs involving sheathing replacement or HVHZ tie-down corrections range from $1,500 to $4,500. We know these numbers because we work Kendall’s streets every week, from the canal-lined lanes of Kendall Lakes to the gated sections off SW 104th Street. Our Roof Repair team answers the phone 24/7 at (727) 291-4678, and we can usually have a technician on your roof within a day or two to diagnose what’s actually going on. Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every job we do.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
Kendall homeowners have a specific problem: they need a roofer who understands Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone without treating every repair like a full reroof. That’s us. We’ve repaired roofs across The Hammocks, Kendall Lakes, and the subdivisions west of Dadeland Mall, and we know the difference between a Code-compliant roof-to-wall connection and one that’ll fail at the next wind event. Our licensing is published, our address is published, and Ed Winslow personally stands behind the Done Right Promise. If it isn’t done right, we make it right. That’s not marketing language; that’s a standard of accountability written into every job.
Calls to (727) 291-4678 are answered by a live person, not a voicemail loop. Every technician who arrives at your Kendall home is background-checked and in uniform, so you know exactly who’s stepping onto your property before the ladder goes up. We offer free second opinions on written estimates from other contractors, which matters in a market where out-of-town roofers routinely misunderstand what Kendall’s wind zone actually requires.
Our Roof Repair Services in Kendall
Leak Detection and Repair
Most Kendall roof leaks get blamed on windows and doors when the real culprit is corroded flashing or failed vent boots. Salt air moving inland from Biscayne Bay eats through metal flashing on CBS homes faster than in central Florida, especially on homes built during the fast post-Andrew rebuilds. We trace the actual water path before touching anything, then repair the source rather than caulking the symptom.
Flashing and Vent Boot Replacement
On Kendall’s concrete block homes, roof penetrations are the weak point. Pipe boots, attic vents, and chimney flashing take the brunt of humidity and salt exposure year-round. We replace corroded vent boots with stainless steel or UV-stabilized materials matched to your existing roof system, and we check the surrounding shingle or tile for hidden damage while we’re up there. A leaking vent boot in Kendall is almost never an isolated problem; it’s a sign of corrosion spreading.
Roof Deck and Sheathing Repair
This is where Kendall’s post-Andrew history really shows. Many homes reroofed in 1993 and 1994 got fasteners that were under-driven or corroded within a decade, which means roof deck sections lift at the eaves during wind events. When we repair sheathing in Kendall, we bring the attachment pattern up to current Miami-Dade HVHZ uplift standards, not just what was acceptable when the original materials went down. Your roof is only as strong as what’s holding it to the walls.
Drip Edge and Eave Repair
The drip edge on Kendall homes takes a beating from summer thunderstorms and hurricane-driven rain. We regularly see rusted-out drip edge on homes along the Snapper Creek corridor and the older sections of Kendall east of the Turnpike. Replacing it correctly means more than nailing on new metal; we verify the underlying fascia is sound and that water is being directed into the gutter system instead of behind it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall
Because we’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and CWS, we understand how roof repairs interact with impact-rated openings. When we reset flashing around windows after a roof repair, we use the correct NOA-labeled jamb flashing so your wind mitigation certificate stays valid. For Kendall customers with PGT or CGI impact windows, we keep compatible flashing profiles and fasteners stocked locally, which means faster turnaround on repairs that touch roof-to-wall transitions. We service these brands and more with factory-informed techniques.
Common Roof Repair Problems We See in Kendall Homes
- Uplift damage at roof eaves from post-Andrew reroofs. Homes reroofed quickly after 1992 often have non-HVHZ-rated fasteners at the roof deck. We inspect the attachment pattern during every repair and correct what the original crews skipped.
- Corroded flashing and vent boots from salt air and humidity. Kendall’s proximity to Biscayne Bay and its canal system accelerates corrosion on metal roof components. Homeowners often notice ceiling stains near exterior walls and assume the windows are leaking when the flashing has failed.
- HOA compliance issues in master-planned communities. The Hammocks and other Kendall HOAs require roof repair materials and colors to match original builder specs. Starting work without architectural approval can trigger a stop-work order and fines, so we handle the application paperwork before the first shingle comes off.
- Roof leaks that appear with new impact windows. When windows are replaced and sealed tighter, existing roof leaks become more apparent because water no longer finds the old escape path. We diagnose whether the leak is truly at the window or at the roof above it, saving homeowners from paying twice.
Pricing for Roof Repair in Kendall, FL
Most Kendall roof repairs land between $350 and $1,200 depending on what’s failing and where. A simple pipe boot replacement runs $250 to $450. Flashing repair around a vent or chimney typically costs $400 to $900. Roof deck sheathing replacement in the HVHZ, including bringing the fastener pattern up to current uplift standards, ranges from $1,500 to $4,500 depending on how many sheets are compromised and what floor height we’re working at. Two-story homes on the western edge of Kendall, where wind exposure is higher, tend to cost more than single-story homes in the older eastern sections. Every quote is a fixed, written line-item price with no change orders unless you approve a change in scope. Plus, we offer $40 off any repair over $200 and a 10% discount for seniors and veterans.
What Roof Repair Costs in Kendall
Here’s the honest math for Kendall. If your repair touches the roof deck and the home has impact-rated windows already, the roof work itself is the main cost driver. But if you’re considering impact windows at the same time, you’re looking at windows priced around $800 to $1,500 per opening installed for standard sizes, $900 to $1,800 for impact single-hung units, $2,500 to $5,000 for large or custom openings, and $8,000 to $25,000 plus for whole-home packages. What moves the price in Kendall: the number of openings, the wind zone (Kendall sits in Miami-Dade’s most restrictive HVHZ tier), floor height (second-story work costs more), and frame material. We’ll come out for a free in-home measure and written quote, no trip charge inside the home county, and give you numbers you can take to your HOA or insurance agent.
Florida Pays You Back
Kendall homeowners have a stack of incentives available, and we’ll point you to every one that applies. My Safe Florida Home matching grants of up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. A Florida sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit, up to 30% of product cost and $600 per year on qualifying units. And windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy after a wind mitigation inspection that runs $75 to $150. We can’t guarantee what your carrier will approve, because that’s their call. But we’ll make sure the work is documented correctly so you can claim what you’re owed.
A Comparison Worth Making: Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters
If your roof repair is part of a larger hurricane-readiness conversation, here’s the real comparison for Kendall. Impact windows from brands like PGT and CGI are permanent protection. You don’t hang anything before a storm, you don’t store panels in the garage, and you don’t climb a ladder at 10 p.m. while a hurricane approaches. Shutters cost less up front but require deployment every single time, and Kendall’s rapid storm intensification window means you may have less time to react than you think. For homeowners already fixing a roof, adding impact-rated openings at the same time simplifies the wind mitigation inspection and often maximizes the insurance credit. We’ll walk you through both paths with real numbers.

FAQs - Roof Repair in Kendall
No. In Kendall, roof repair materials themselves do not need a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance; only windows and doors do. What roof repairs must meet is Miami-Dade HVHZ uplift standards for how materials are attached, particularly at roof-to-wall connections and when sheathing is replaced. Contractors who cross the county line from Broward often get this backwards and either over-specify the roofing materials or under-document the attachment work. Call (727) 291-4678 to have us look at what your repair actually requires.
A roof repair can affect your wind mitigation credits if the work changes the roof-to-wall connection or the water barrier under the roof deck. In Kendall, a wind mitigation inspection grades your home’s roof deck attachment, roof covering, roof geometry, and opening protection separately. We’ve seen homeowners lose credits because a previous contractor reinstalled windows with the wrong flashing and voided the NOA documentation. We keep your existing credits intact by following the same code path your original impact installation used. If you want certainty, call (727) 291-4678 and we’ll walk you through what your insurance agent needs to see.
You can do minor maintenance yourself, but any roof repair that alters the roof covering, flashing, or sheathing in a master-planned Kendall HOA like The Hammocks typically requires architectural approval first, and the materials and colors must match the original builder spec. If your HOA has a right-of-first-approval process for exterior work, a stop-work order and fines are real risks. We handle the application for you and submit material samples when the HOA wants them. To schedule a free estimate, call (727) 291-4678.
The usual answer in Kendall is failed roof flashing above the window, not the window itself. When we install impact windows, the house gets tighter, and water that used to find an old drainage path now shows up as a ceiling stain near the new opening. We diagnose by looking at the roof plane above the window, the drip edge, and the jamb flashing seals. Fixing the roof issue and the flashing together is usually less expensive than replacing a window that was never the problem. Call (727) 291-4678 for a full assessment.
It depends on the age of the home and the language of the builder agreement. Some newer Kendall communities carry a structural warranty that covers roof deck failures related to construction defects, but cosmetic issues, storm damage, and normal wear-and-tear are almost always excluded. If your home is under a builder warranty, we document every repair with photographs and code references so you can submit a claim without voiding coverage. That documentation has helped Kendall homeowners recover costs they assumed they’d have to eat. To review your situation, call (727) 291-4678.
What Makes Roof Repair in Kendall Different
Here’s what you need to know that a generic roof repair page won’t tell you. In Kendall, a roof repair that touches any roof-to-wall connection or replaces roof sheathing must meet Miami-Dade HVHZ uplift standards. But unlike neighboring Broward County, the repair materials themselves don’t need the county NOA stamp, only the windows and doors do. Contractors unfamiliar with the county line often over-specify or under-document the roof work. We’re not unfamailiar with the line. We live south of it, we pull permits in Kendall regularly, and we know exactly what the inspector is looking for at the roof deck and eave.
We recently repaired a roof on a two-story CBS home in Kendall Lakes where the original post-Andrew reroof had used non-HVHZ-rated fasteners at the roof deck. The eaves were lifting, and water had found its way into the wall cavity. Our crew replaced the damaged sheathing, reinstalled the drip edge with Miami-Dade-compliant attachment, and then reset the homeowner’s PGT impact windows with new NOA-labeled jamb flashing to keep the wind mitigation certificate valid. That’s how the work should be done in Kendall: roof and openings treated as one system, not two separate jobs.
