Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every job we do. That means when our crew shows up to a Palmetto Bay property, we’re accountable to the homeowner in a way a faceless national chain never will be.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Palmetto Bay’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
We started this business in 2011, and the way we’ve grown is simple: answer the phone with a live person, show up when we say we will, and stand behind the work with the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s not a slogan. That’s Ed’s word.
Local reputation in Palmetto Bay matters more than any billboard. Homeowners here talk. They talk across fence lines on SW 72nd Avenue, at the farmers market, and in the line at the Pinecrest Library branch. What they say about us is that our background-checked, uniformed technicians treat their property like it’s the one next door to Ed’s own house. They say we answer calls at odd hours, not with a voicemail loop, but with a person. And they say our written quotes don’t change once the tear-off starts.
We coordinate dispatch and scheduling from our Miami (South FL) office, and our crews serve Palmetto Bay locally. We’re not new to the area and we’re not guessing at what permits Miami-Dade County will require. We’ve done this on Palmetto Bay lots with mature canopy, septic fields, and long driveways. That experience is worth real money when a county inspector walks the property.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Palmetto Bay
Every roof replacement we do in Palmetto Bay starts with the same step: we look at the lot before we look at the shingles. That’s the difference between a crew that knows Palmetto Bay and one that just found you on a search results page. Our Roof Replacement & Installation work includes full tear-offs, underlayment replacement, decking repairs, and complete re-roofs in shingle, tile, and standing-seam metal. Here’s how that plays out across the four areas homeowners ask about most.
Full Tear-Off and Re-Roof
Palmetto Bay’s 1960s and 1970s CBS ranch homes often have original roofing that’s long past its service life. A full tear-off lets us inspect the decking, replace rotted sections, and install a modern underlayment rated for Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. We sequence the tear-off around your drain field and tree canopy, not around what’s most convenient for the crew.
Impact-Rated Decking and Underlayment
When a roof is stripped to the deck, Palmetto Bay homeowners have a one-time opportunity to upgrade the assembly to HVHZ standards. We install secondary water barriers and impact-rated decking that hold up when a live oak branch comes down in a storm. The county permit will require this level of detail on most replacement work anyway; we just make sure it’s done correctly and verified.
Standing-Seam Metal Roofing
On Palmetto Bay acreage lots with low-pitch roofs or long runs, standing-seam metal is a strong choice. The salt-laden onshore air from Biscayne Bay makes the metal finish and fastener selection critical. We use corrosion-resistant panel systems and fasteners specified for coastal exposure, and we factor wind-mitigation credits into the conversation up front.
Tile and Shingle Roofing
Some Palmetto Bay homes carry original barrel tile or asphalt shingles. Replacement work on tile roofs in this market means matching materials that satisfy county code and the neighborhood’s aesthetic expectations. For shingle re-roofs, we quote architectural shingles rated for the wind zone and install them to the manufacturer’s high-wind nailing pattern, not the minimum pattern.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palmetto Bay
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, among eight premium brands. For Palmetto Bay homeowners, that means the impact products we install carry real Miami-Dade NOA numbers and Florida Product Approval documentation, not a salesperson’s promise. When a roof replacement includes new impact windows or doors for gable-end openings, we can pull from product lines we know well: PGT’s casement windows for masonry openings off Old Cutler Road, CGI’s heavy-duty frames for homes that catch wind off the bay for homeowners who want performance without losing the look of the original architecture.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Palmetto Bay Homes
- Septic and well setbacks stalling the project. Many Palmetto Bay properties sit on septic and well systems with county-mandated setbacks from replacement structures. If the tear-off debris pile or a skip loader intrudes into that protected zone, the inspector can shut the job down. We locate and flag those setbacks before tearing off a single shingle.
- Long material hauls from outside the city. Palmetto Bay has no roofing supply yard inside its boundaries. Every load of underlayment, decking, or metal panel comes from at least 20 minutes away. A missed truck window doesn’t just delay the crew, it burns a full day. Our scheduling accounts for that.
- Mature live oak and mahogany canopy over the roof. Palmetto Bay’s tree canopy is one of its best features and one of its biggest roof hazards. During a tear-off, a dropped branch can crack a new impact window if the sequence isn’t planned around the overhang. We plan the tear-off around the trees, not after them.
- Salt-air corrosion on flashing and fasteners. Homes a few miles west of Biscayne Bay get more salt-laden onshore air than inland properties. Original aluminum flashing and hardware corrode faster. The fix isn’t just replacement, it’s using materials and finishes specified for coastal exposure so the new roof doesn’t start failing in ten years.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Palmetto Bay, FL
A standard asphalt shingle re-roof on a Palmetto Bay ranch home typically runs $12,000 to $18,000. Tile replacement sits between $18,000 and $30,000. Standing-seam metal on a low-pitch Palmetto Bay roof runs $25,000 to $40,000. Acreage lots with detached workshops or ADUs push the total higher because each structure gets its own scope, its own set of county permit requirements, and its own equipment access plan.
What moves the price? The roof’s square footage and pitch, the condition of the existing decking, whether you’re upgrading to impact-rated underlayment, the distance from a supply yard, and the number of penetrations like skylights, vents, or chimney flashings. The septic and well setback on your lot doesn’t add cost by itself, but if we have to resequence the tear-off or hand-carry debris to protect the drain field, that labor shows up in the quote. The free estimate we give you is a written line-item quote. Upfront pricing. No surprises on the invoice. Call (727) 291-4678 to schedule yours.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Palmetto Bay
If you’re replacing windows alongside a roof, impact windows in Palmetto Bay generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed. Impact single-hung units sit between $900 and $1,800. Large or custom openings, like a picture window facing the backyard canopy, land at $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages for impact windows start around $8,000 and run past $25,000 on larger custom homes. What moves the price here is the count of openings, the wind zone at your specific address, the floor height of the opening, and the frame material you choose. We measure every opening in person, quote against Miami-Dade NOA requirements for each configuration, and never hand you a per-window guess. The in-home measure and written quote are free.
One comparison worth making early: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters cost less up front, but you’re committing to hauling panels out of a shed, wrangling them onto tracks, and hoping you remembered the wing nuts. Impact windows are permanent protection, never require panels or setup, and bolt directly into the CBS openings that Palmetto Bay’s ranch homes were built with. For a homeowner who’s lived through a few September storm tracks, the difference is real. It’s not only a cost decision, it’s a lifestyle decision.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida’s incentive stack for storm-hardening your home is real, and Palmetto Bay homeowners are in a strong position to use it. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150 and documents your improvements, many carriers reduce the windstorm portion of the premium by an average around 25%. We don’t set the program rules or the carrier numbers, but we do provide the documentation you need to file. Ed’s name is on the door, and the paperwork we hand you reflects that.
Why Palmetto Bay’s County-Only Permitting Changes Your Roof Job
Palmetto Bay is unusual in one way that changes every roof replacement we do there: residential lots are governed by Miami-Dade County building permits, not a city-level process. Many Palmetto Bay homes also sit on septic and well systems with required setbacks from replacement structures. That means the roof work has to be engineered around drain-field and wellhead clearances that neighboring Coral Gables or Pinecrest jobs rarely face. Before we quote a single shingle, we locate the septic drain field, flag the wellhead, and confirm what the county inspector will be looking for when they walk the property. That’s not boilerplate. That’s the actual job.
On a 1960s CBS ranch off Old Cutler Road, we replaced the original low-pitch roof with impact-rated decking and upgraded to Miami-Dade NOA-approved PGT casement windows for the gable-end openings. The county permit required a survey of the septic drain field, so we resequenced the tear-off to keep the skip loader off the drain-field setback, then finished with a standing-seam metal roof that earned a wind-mitigation credit. That’s the kind of scoping we do on every Palmetto Bay acreage job.
The Information-Gain hook on this page is simple: Palmetto Bay’s county-only permitting, septic and well setbacks, long material hauls, and salt-air corrosion change the roof replacement scope. You get a quote based on the actual acreage job you have, not a generic residential roof template. If the home you live in off SW 87th Avenue has a drain field in the back corner and a live oak hanging over the low-pitch section, we’ve already planned for it.
We also serve Palmetto Bay homeowners in Palmetto Bay Gardens, and the neighborhoods along Old Cutler Road. Every home in this market has its own combination of setback lines, canopy cover, and roof pitch. We quote each one on its own terms.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Palmetto Bay
Palmetto Bay’s lots fall under county building permits rather than a city-level process, so the roof assembly has to meet Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone standards, including impact-rated decking, sealed underlayment, and NOA-approved products for any openings we touch. The county also enforces setbacks from septic drain fields and wellheads. A standard municipal job in many other places doesn’t have the setback overlay, so the sequence and equipment access get more complicated here. Call (727) 291-4678 and we’ll walk your lot before quoting.
It can strengthen the claim. The wind-mitigation inspection credits the roof geometry and decking attachment, and if you also install impact windows with Miami-Dade NOA documentation, the combined mitigation shows up on the inspection form. The premium credit amount is set by your carrier, but we provide the inspection-ready documentation for both the roof assembly and the window installation. Call (727) 291-4678 for a written quote that includes the paperwork trail.
We schedule trucks for the specific load and time window, then we check the canopy path before the truck rolls in. If the live oaks or mahoganies won’t clear a full semi, we stage materials at a cleared point and move them with a smaller loader or by hand. The goal is to never let a low branch or a tight corner stall the whole crew. Call (727) 291-4678 and we’ll scope the access route during the free estimate.
Generally no. Each structure on the lot, including a detached workshop or ADU, gets its own scope under the county permit. Some owners group them into one application, some do them sequentially. We’ll tell you what the county will require for each structure and price them separately so there’s no surprise. Call (727) 291-4678 for a quote that breaks out every structure.
Yes. Palmetto Bay sits close enough to Biscayne Bay that onshore air carries salt, which corrodes standard flashing, fasteners, and exposed metal finishes faster than inland markets. We specify corrosion-resistant underlayment, stainless or coated fasteners, and coastal-rated metal finishes on any roof system we install here. It’s a small material upgrade that prevents early failure. Call (727) 291-4678 for a free estimate that includes the coastal-spec materials.
If you’re ready to replace a roof on a Palmetto Bay acreage lot, a ranch home off Old Cutler Road, or anything in between, call (727) 291-4678. We’ll answer with a live person, schedule a free in-home measure, and give you a written quote based on your actual property. The one down the road.
