AfterFast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Kendall
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Kendall, FL means choosing a system that can handle 130-plus mph winds, flying debris, and relentless humidity without failing. We install all three roofing types across Kendall’s neighborhoods, from Kendale Lakes to The Hammocks to The Crossings, and we pull every permit, pass every Miami-Dade inspection, and back the whole job with the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, Ed Winslow makes it right. Call (850) 721-1218 for your free roofing estimate in Kendall.
Kendall sits squarely inside the Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That one fact changes everything about how a roof gets specified, priced, and inspected here compared to just twenty minutes north in Broward. We’ll walk you through exactly what that means for your house before you spend a dollar.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and his name is on the door, and on every job we do. Kendall homeowners call us because we answer the phone with a live person twenty-four hours a day, not a voicemail tree. When a storm tears shingles off a roof in The Hammocks at 11 p.m., someone here picks up on the first ring. That’s not a marketing line. That’s how we’ve operated since day one.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing crews know Kendall’s housing stock cold. We’ve worked on concrete block ranch homes built in the 1970s along Kendall Drive, first-generation post-Andrew rebuilds in Kendale Lakes, and newer construction in The Crossings. Most homes here are CBS construction with tile or shingle roofs, and the failure patterns we see repeat block after block. We’ve walked hundreds of Kendall roofs, and we know which 1980s-era tile underlayments are shot, which post-Andrew shingle jobs were rushed, and which metal roofs were installed with the wrong fasteners for Miami-Dade wind loads.
Every technician on your Kendall roof is background-checked and arrives in uniform with identification. You’ll know exactly who’s on your property before the ladder goes up.

Shingle Roof Installation and Replacement in Kendall
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing system in Kendall, especially on the sprawling 1970s and 1980s tract homes that fill the neighborhoods west of the Palmetto Expressway. In Miami-Dade’s HVHZ, shingle roofs demand far more than standard nail patterns. We install to current Miami-Dade code, which calls for enhanced underlayment, sealed roof decking, and wind-rated shingles tested to stay put in sustained hurricane-force winds. A typical Kendall shingle roof replacement runs $12,000 to $22,000 depending on the size of the roof and the condition of the existing deck.
Tile Roof Installation and Repair in Kendall
Concrete and clay barrel tile roofs are everywhere in Kendall’s older suburbs like Kendale Lakes and West Kendall, many of them original to houses built between 1975 and 1990. The tile itself often still has life in it; what fails underneath is the underlayment. We regularly find original 3-tab underlayments cracked and leaking after thirty-plus years of Kendall’s humidity. A full tile roof replacement in Kendall typically falls between $22,000 and $45,000. Repairs, especially replacing cracked tiles and spot-replacing underlayment around valleys and penetrations, usually run $600 to $1,800.
Metal Roof Installation in Kendall
Standing seam metal roofing performs exceptionally well in Kendall’s storm environment. It sheds wind better than any other system when installed with HVHZ-rated clips and fasteners. More Kendall homeowners are choosing metal for the combination of longevity and windstorm insurance credits. A standing seam metal roof for a typical 1,800 to 2,500 square foot Kendall home runs $28,000 to $50,000, with material choice and roof complexity moving the number. Cheaper screw-down metal panels won’t pass Miami-Dade inspection. We only install systems rated for this wind zone.
Roof Leak Repair and Storm Damage Response in Kendall
Kendall’s afternoon thunderstorms in the summer months are predictable and intense, and they find every weak spot in an aging roof. We respond to Kendall leak calls within hours, not days. Common repair work includes replacing missing or cracked tiles, sealing penetrations around vents and skylights, patching shingle damage, and correcting bad flashing at chimneys and valleys. Most leak repairs in Kendall cost between $350 and $950. Larger storm repair jobs after a hurricane event are priced on a per-square basis, and we provide a written line-item quote before any work starts.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall
We install and service roofing systems from brands engineered for South Florida conditions. For metal roofing projects in Kendall, we work with certified standing seam systems rated for Miami-Dade’s HVHZ. For window and door work that goes hand in hand with a roof replacement, we’re an authorized installer for PGT, Therma-Tru, and Mr-Glass, among others. We keep common flashing, sealant, and fastener materials on our trucks for fast turnaround on Kendall repairs, so a missing tile or leaking penetration doesn’t sit exposed to the next storm cycle. If you’re replacing windows alongside a roof project in Kendall, we’ll spec every unit with the Miami-Dade NOA numbers before we quote.
Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Kendall Homes
- Post-Andrew rush-job shingle installs reaching end of life. After Hurricane Andrew tore through Kendall in 1992, thousands of homes got new roofs installed fast. Many were put on with outdated fastening patterns and thin underlayments that are now failing all at once.
- Cracked and slipping tile from failing underlayment. On Kendall’s older CBS homes, tile roofs often look fine from the street while the underlayment underneath is decomposing. We’ve opened up tile roofs in Kendale Lakes where the felt had turned to powder.
- Moisture-driven sealant failure at penetrations. Kendall’s humidity and daily summer downpours attack roof sealants at vent pipes, skylights, and valley terminations. Seals that would last fifteen years up north fail in half that time here.
- Wind-driven rain intrusion at ridge and soffit transitions. The 130 mph wind loads in Miami-Dade can push rainwater horizontally into roof assemblies that weren’t detailed for that kind of pressure. Proper HVHZ ventilation and ridge detailing are often missing on older Kendall homes.
Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Kendall, FL
What should you actually budget for a new roof in Kendall? Here’s what we see in the current market:

Crew scheduling in Kendall, labor rates, and material availability from Miami suppliers all influence these numbers. Every quote we give is a fixed, line-item price. No change orders on a signed contract. Call (850) 721-1218 to schedule a free in-home roof evaluation and written quote. We’ll photograph what we find and walk you through it.
What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Kendall
For Kendall specifically, roof prices track slightly above Broward County because of the stricter underlayment and fastener requirements Miami-Dade enforces. A shingle roof that passes inspection in Pembroke Pines might not pass in Kendall. What moves your number: roof size, roof pitch, the number of hips, valleys, and penetrations, whether the existing deck needs replacement, and whether you’re switching system types. Removing tile and installing shingle, for example, costs more than a straight shingle replace because of disposal and deck prep. Our free in-home measure and written quote gives you the real number for your house, not a ballpark. Call (850) 721-1218.
Florida Pays You Back
Kendall homeowners can stack multiple incentive programs on a qualifying roof project. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for wind-mitigation upgrades including code-compliant roof replacements. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows, doors, and certain roofing systems from sales tax. At the federal level, the 25C energy credit can apply to qualifying energy-efficient components. And after a wind-mitigation inspection (which typically costs $75 to $150 in Kendall), insurance carriers often apply windstorm premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy. We don’t control what your carrier grants, but we’ll document every Miami-Dade NOA and HVHZ detail so you can file for what you qualify for.
One comparison worth making in Kendall: a permanently attached, code-compliant roof system has real advantages over relying on temporary coverings. A standing seam metal roof or properly fastened shingle or tile system is always in place, always protecting the house, with no panels to dig out of the garage at 1 a.m. when a hurricane shifts toward Kendall. It’s a one-time install, not an event-day scramble.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Kendall
Yes, every roofing system and component installed in Kendall must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or Florida Product Approval, because Kendall sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone. A Broward County approval won’t satisfy inspectors in Kendall. We check the product approval database before quoting any job, so nothing gets ordered that can’t be installed. Call (850) 721-1218 for a free assessment.
Almost certainly not. Roofing standards have tightened significantly since the mid-1990s, and many post-Andrew installs in Kendall were rushed. Fastener patterns, underlayment types, and water barrier details all differ from what Miami-Dade requires today. We can inspect your roof and tell you exactly where it stands against current code. Call (850) 721-1218 to schedule a Kendall roof inspection.
For any full roof replacement in Kendall, we pull the permit with Miami-Dade County, install the system to HVHZ standards, and schedule the required inspections. That means rough-in inspection for sheathing and underlayment, then final inspection once the roof system is complete. Inspectors here enforce NOA compliance at both stages. We’ll tell you exactly what permits your specific roof needs before any work begins. Call (850) 721-1218 and ask for a free quote.
A wind-mitigation inspection that documents a HVHZ-compliant roof with enhanced fastening often lets Florida carriers discount the windstorm portion of your premium. The discount amount depends on your carrier and policy. What we do is make sure every component we install meets the exact Miami-Dade NOA requirements your inspector will look for, so there’s no dispute about compliance when you file for credits. Call (850) 721-1218 to discuss your roof.
Yes, in most cases. Kendall’s concrete block homes hold heat, and roof surface temperature matters. Lighter-colored tile and metal roofs with proper underlayment reflect more solar gain than dark asphalt shingles, reducing heat transfer into the attic and living space. The difference shows up in lower AC run times during Kendall’s long summers. We can review roofing materials and finishes that balance hurricane performance with heat rejection. Call (850) 721-1218 for a free estimate in Kendall.
