We’re Winslow Windows & Doors, and Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every roof we install. We’ve been a licensed Florida contractor since 2011, and while our South FL dispatch office coordinates Homestead crews from Miami, the people who show up at your home know Homestead’s building department, its wind zone, and its inspector expectations cold. That matters here more than almost anywhere else in the state.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Homestead’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Homestead is not a generic South Florida suburb. The city sits inside Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and its building department enforces product approval rules that contractors from Broward or Palm Beach routinely trip over. We don’t. Every Roof Replacement & Installation job we quote in Homestead starts with a review of the Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance requirements for your specific roof covering and underlayment, because if that documentation is not in the permit packet, the permit does not get issued. Period.
Our Homestead customers call us back for a second job or refer us to a neighbor because we answer the phone live, 24/7, and because we do not disappear when an inspection item comes back. A background-checked, uniformed technician arrives at the door, walks the roof with you, and writes a quote that lists every NOA and design pressure rating by opening. No vague allowances. No change orders waiting in the wings.
Ed Winslow founded this company to be the alternative to the faceless national chains that hand you a ticket number and a call center. We publish our address and license number. We answer the phone at 2 a.m. when a storm tears through Homestead and you’re watching water come through the ceiling. And we back every roof with the 36500-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right, no expiration, no fine print.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Homestead
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roof on Homestead’s post-Andrew housing stock, and for good reason: they’re cost-effective, fast to install, and when spec’d with a high-wind rating and a current Miami-Dade NOA, they hold up to what open-terrain Homestead throws at them. We install shingle systems with self-adhered HVHZ-rated underlayment and upgraded roof-to-wall connections, not the bare-minimum strip-and-lay approach you’ll see in cheaper bids.
Metal Roof Installation
Metal roofs are the fastest-growing choice in Homestead, especially east of Krome Avenue where homes face direct Biscayne Bay wind run. A standing-seam or exposed-fastener metal panel roof carries a higher design pressure and sheds wind-driven rain far better than shingles on low-slope concrete-block homes. We install metal systems with current Miami-Dade NOAs and closed-cell seams rated for the exposure your specific lot actually has.
Tile Roof Replacement
Many Homestead homes in neighborhoods like Keys Gate and Waterstone carry concrete or clay tile roofs original to their late-90s construction. That tile is now reaching the end of its underlayment life, and when the underlayment goes, water gets under the tile and rots decking. We strip tile carefully, replace the underlayment with an HVHZ-rated self-adhered membrane, reset sound tile, and add current NOA-rated mortar and attachment systems. You pay only for replacement tile, not a full new tile bill.
Storm Damage Roof Repair & Replacement
When a named or unnamed storm rolls across the Everglades and into Homestead, wind-driven rain finds every weak point around penetrations, flashing, and ridge vents. We do emergency tarping and full insurance-scope replacement, and we document every rating, every NOA, and every wind mitigation upgrade so your claim and your premium credits move smoothly. If your roof took hits near Campbell Drive or anywhere else in the city, call us before you file. We’ll help you scope it right.

Trusted Brands We Service in Homestead
We install roofs and exterior products from an authorized lineup that includes PGT, CGI, CWS, and ViewLux, among others. For Homestead specifically, we recommend and stock products that carry the Miami-Dade NOA your permit requires. That means no waiting while a supplier ships in something that passes state code but fails Homestead’s HVHZ intake review. You get a roof system pre-vetted for this city’s exact wind and water infiltration standards, ordered once and installed once.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Homestead Homes
- Permit rejection at intake: The most common phone call we get from Homestead homeowners starts with “the other contractor’s permit got kicked back.” The reason is almost always the same: the roof covering or underlayment carries a Florida Statewide Product Approval but no Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, and Homestead’s building department demands the NOA without exception.
- Re-used roof-to-wall straps: Some re-roof crews leave existing straps in place to save labor. On a post-Andrew Homestead home, those straps are often corroded or under-rated for today’s wind codes. A wind mitigation inspection will flag them, and your insurance credits vanish. We upgrade to HVHZ-rated connectors on every replacement roof.
- Shingles spec’d below open-terrain design pressure: Homestead’s flat, exposed geography west of the Turnpike means wind speeds at the roof surface run higher than in tree-covered neighborhoods further north. A shingle rated for an interior Miami-Dade location may not meet the design pressure for a home near Redland or Princeton. We calculate per-opening design pressure before ordering materials.
- Moisture-wicking decking from failed underlayment: By the time a roof “looks” old enough to replace, the decking beneath may already be holding moisture from years of wind-driven rain intrusion. On 1990s-era Homestead homes, we routinely find decking that looks fine from above but crumbles at the seams. We check, and we replace what’s compromised, with a photo and a line item for every sheet.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Homestead, FL
A shingle roof replacement on a typical 1,800-square-foot Homestead home generally lands between $9,500 and $14,000. Standing-seam metal on the same footprint runs $16,000 to $24,000. Concrete tile replacement, depending on how much existing tile is salvageable, falls between $12,000 and $22,000. Larger homes in developments like Malibu Bay or single-story homes with hip roofs and complex eaves push toward the upper end. The dominant cost drivers in Homestead are the required HVHZ-rated underlayment and fasteners, the roof-to-wall strap upgrades, and the permit and inspection package, which includes the Miami-Dade NOA documentation. A cheap quote that leaves those out is not a real quote. Call (863) 946-5039 for a free in-home measure and a written bid that shows every rating and every line item.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Homestead
Beyond the roof itself, Homestead homeowners often ask how roofing work compares to window and door pricing, since so many homes here need both after thirty years of salt air and storm cycles. Impact windows in Homestead typically run $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with single-hung units at $900 to $1,800, large or custom openings at $2,500 to $5,000, and whole-home packages from $8,000 to $25,000 or more. What moves the number is opening count, floor height, frame material, and whether the window carries a current Miami-Dade NOA. The same wind-load discipline that governs your roof quote governs your window quote. We measure both at the same visit, so you get one scope, one team, and one standard: HVHZ compliance, documented and inspected.

Florida Pays You Back
Homestead homeowners have access to a stack of incentives that can offset a serious portion of a wind-hardening roof replacement. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind mitigation upgrades, and impact-rated exterior products are exempt from Florida sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. And after your roof replacement, a wind mitigation inspection (usually $75 to $150) can unlock windstorm premium credits that average around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy. We do not set these program numbers and we can’t guarantee what your carrier credits, but we know the paperwork and we fill it out right the first time.
One comparison worth making before you write a check: a permanent impact-rated roof and window package versus hanging hurricane shutters every time a storm brews off the Bahamas. Shutters work only when someone is home to hang them, and they protect none of the underlayment or decking from the wind-driven rain that does most of the real damage in Homestead. A code-compliant roof with HVHZ-rated underlayment and connectors protects the structure itself, whether or not you’re standing in the driveway with a panel in your hands. We do not install shutters. We install the roof and window systems that make them optional.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Homestead
Yes. A Florida Statewide Product Approval is not enough in Homestead. Every roof covering, underlayment, and attachment system must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance because Homestead sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone. If your contractor submits a permit with only a Florida Product Approval, Homestead’s building department will reject it at intake. Call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll verify your spec before you waste application fees.
A compliant quote includes the specific Miami-Dade NOA numbers for your roof covering and underlayment, upgraded HVHZ-rated roof-to-wall connectors, per-opening design pressure ratings, the permit and inspection package, and a line item for any decking replacement. Cheap quotes leave out connectors, reuse old straps, and skip the NOA paperwork entirely. Those omissions surface at permit intake or first inspection. Get a written quote from us and compare line by line at (863) 946-5039.
A documented, HVHZ-compliant roof replacement with a passing wind mitigation inspection typically earns a windstorm premium reduction, often around 25% on the windstorm portion of the policy. The credit comes from Florida Statute 627.0629, and your carrier sets the exact amount. We document every upgrade and sign off on the inspection scope so you can file for the credit. Call (863) 946-5039 to schedule the measure.
Sometimes, but not as often as homeowners hope. Decking on 1990s-era Homestead homes has been soaking up wind-driven rain around penetrations and eaves for decades. Sound, dry decking can stay; anything moisture-compromised, delaminated at the seams, or undersized for current uplift loads comes out. We photograph every sheet we remove and show you why it went. Call (863) 946-5039 for an honest decking assessment during your free measure.
Homestead’s open-terrain exposure, flanked by the Everglades to the west and Biscayne Bay to the east, produces some of the least wind-sheltered conditions in the continental U.S. That means higher design pressures at the roof surface, more wind-driven rain around penetrations, and faster salt-air corrosion on hardware and flashings. Roofs spec’d for the wind speeds of an urban, tree-covered Miami neighborhood underperform here. We spec every Homestead roof to its actual per-opening design pressure, not a county default. Call (863) 946-5039 for a quote that accounts for your lot’s real exposure.
