Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Opa-locka’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company

Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is still on every job we do in Opa-locka. That matters when you’re putting a new roof on a 1960s CBS home and want a straight answer about whether the decking survived five decades of humidity. We don’t hand you a ticket number. We hand you Ed’s word - backed by our Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right.

Opa-locka homeowners deal with a specific set of roof problems. Salt air drifts inland from Biscayne Bay, eating through metal flashing and corroding fasteners. Afternoon thunderstorms pound tile roofs that were never re-bedded after the original install. And the city’s older housing stock means we routinely find deck rot, failed underlayment, and flashing that was never properly sealed. Knowing what to look for before the first tile comes off is why locals call us first.

Every technician who pulls up to an Opa-locka address is background-checked and in uniform. You know exactly who’s at your door before the truck parks. And when you call at 2 a.m. because a limb went through the roof in a storm, a live person answers. Not a voicemail loop. Not a call center in another state.

Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Opa-locka

Shingle Roofing Replacement in Opa-locka

Asphalt shingle roofs are common across Opa-locka’s residential blocks, particularly on 1950s-1970s CBS homes. We strip the old roof down to the deck, inspect every sheet of plywood, and replace anything compromised before new underlayment and shingles go on. For Opa-locka’s wind zone, we fasten to Miami-Dade NOA specifications, not just statewide code. Shingle roofs here need every nail ringed properly - the afternoon gusts off the airport treeline find weak spots fast.

Tile Roofing Repair and Replacement in Opa-locka

Clay and concrete tile roofs look great on Opa-locka’s Spanish and Mediterranean-style homes, but they demand more from their underlayment than most owners realize. We routinely find cracked tiles with rotted felt underneath, especially where original 1960s flashings have failed. Our team re-beds ridge caps, replaces broken tiles with matched profiles, and installs new high-temperature underlayment rated for South Florida’s UV load. A tile roof in Opa-locka should last decades - if the substrate underneath is done right.

Metal Roofing Installation in Opa-locka

More Opa-locka homeowners are switching to standing-seam metal for one reason: it shrugs off hurricane season. Properly installed metal roofs carry Miami-Dade NOA approval and shed wind-driven rain instead of absorbing it. They also reflect more heat than shingles, which is a real benefit on Opa-locka’s unshaded streets where afternoon attic temperatures climb past 140°F. We install concealed-fastener and exposed-fastener profiles, with 26-gauge minimum for the HVHZ zone.

Roof Repair and Storm Damage in Opa-locka

Storm season sends branches through shingles, lifts tile corners, and tears flashing loose. We respond to Opa-locka repair calls year-round, tarp and dry-in included when we can’t complete the permanent fix that day. The phone is answered live, 24/7. Ed’s voice on our team has walked more than one Opa-locka homeowner through the first hour after a storm, because that’s the difference between a wet ceiling and a contained one.

Trusted Brands We Service in Opa-locka

We install roofing systems we’re willing to put our name beside, and we service the brands Opa-locka homeowners already trust. That includes tile profiles common to South Florida and metal systems engineered for the HVHZ wind zone. For roof-adjacent work like impact skylights, gable vents, and roof-to-wall transitions, we draw from our authorized lineup - PGT, CGI, Therma-Tru, and ECO Window Systems among them. When your Opa-locka roof needs a matching vent, flashing, or scupper, we’re not waiting on a distributor three counties away.

Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Opa-locka Homes

• Corroded flashing and fasteners from Biscayne Bay salt air. Moisture-laden wind moves inland from the bay year-round, and on Opa-locka’s east side we routinely replace flashing that looks fine from the ground but has rusted through at every seam. Left alone, it channels water straight into the deck.
• Failed underlayment under original tile roofs. Many 1960s and 1970s Opa-locka tile roofs are still running their original felt. It’s brittle, torn at the eaves, and no longer sheds water. New tile on old felt fails in a few years; that’s why we strip to deck and inspect first.
• Wind-lifted shingles along airport-adjacent streets. Homes near the Opa-locka Executive Airport flight path and the open industrial corridors see sustained wind gusts that peel shingle tabs upward. Proper starter strips and six-nail patterns make a measurable difference out here.
• Clogged scuppers and flat-roof ponding on additions. Opa-locka has its share of flat-roof additions, carports, and utility rooms. When the scupper clogs with leaves and debris, water ponds and seeps in at the roof-to-wall flashing. We check drainage as part of every roof inspection.

What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Opa-locka

Here are the ranges we quote most often for Opa-locka roofs:

• Asphalt shingle replacement: $8,000-$16,000 for a typical 1,200-2,000 sq ft CBS home, depending on deck repairs and tear-off disposal.
• Tile roof replacement (clay or concrete): $18,000-$35,000+. Tile itself is expensive, and Opa-locka homes often need new underlayment plus re-bedding labor.
• Standing-seam metal roof: $20,000-$40,000+. Metal carries a premium, but Opa-locka homeowners who plan to stay 15+ years usually see it pay back in longevity and insurance discounts.
• Repairs and storm damage: $400-$2,500 for most flashings, tile replacement, shingle patches, and tarp dry-ins.

Your price moves with three things: roof square footage, material choice, and whether the deck underneath is sound. We measure every roof ourselves, inspect the substrate where possible, and write a line-item quote that locks the price before work starts. No change orders buried in fine print. Call (850) 721-1218 for a free in-home measure and written quote.

Florida Pays You Back

Opa-locka homeowners can stack several incentives on a new roof or impact-rated roof-to-wall upgrade. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and roof condition is part of that equation. Florida’s sales-tax exemption covers impact-resistant windows and doors, which often ride along with a roofing project. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of qualifying product cost, up to $600 per year, on energy-efficient units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, many Opa-locka homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Inspection costs run $75-$150. Programs and carriers set the final numbers - we’ll walk you through what applies on your home, not what a brochure says.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Opa-locka
