AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Kendall
Roof replacement in Kendall, FL typically runs $12,000-$28,000 for a full tear-off on a standard single-story CBS home, with tile roofs landing at the higher end and architectural shingle systems starting around $9,500. Most Kendall jobs are permitted through Miami-Dade County and require HVHZ-compliant underlayment, which is stricter than what’s required just one county north. We coordinate the permit, the materials, and the crew so you’re not chasing paperwork. Call (863) 946-5039 and Ed Winslow’s team will walk you through what your specific roof needs.
Kendall sits squarely in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That’s not a marketing line. It changes which underlayments, fasteners, and edge details are legal on your roof, and it changes what your insurer expects to see after the job is done. We’ve been working these code requirements since 2011, and we know exactly what a Kendall inspector is going to look for before the final sign-off.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and on every job we do in Kendall. That’s not a tagline. It’s how we’ve operated since 2011. When a Kendall homeowner calls us about a roof that’s leaking after a summer storm, they’re talking to a live person. No call center. No voicemail loop. Someone answers, 24 hours a day, and that someone knows Kendall.
Our reputation in Kendall is built on showing up when we say we will and putting the price in writing before the first tile comes off. Every technician who arrives at your home in Kendall is background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before the truck parks. That matters in a tight-knit community like Kendall, where neighbors talk and a contractor’s name either holds up or doesn’t.
We also understand the concrete-block construction that defines most of Kendall’s housing stock. CBS homes from the 1970s through the 1990s have specific roofing attachment points and tie-down requirements. A crew that only does wood-frame roofs in Broward will stumble on a Kendall inspection. We don’t, because we’ve done this work across Kendall for years.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Kendall
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural shingle systems are the most common roof replacement we install in Kendall’s single-family neighborhoods like The Crossings and Kendall West. HVHZ code here requires a specific nail pattern, a sealed roof deck when the home sits in a wind-borne debris region, and underlayment that meets Miami-Dade product approval. We quote the full system to code, so your final inspection passes first time.
Tile Roof Replacement
Concrete and clay barrel tile dominates Kendall’s 1980s and 1990s subdivisions. Tile roofs in Kendall need more than a visual once-over. The underlayment beneath the tile fails long before the tile itself, especially after decades of Kendall’s UV intensity and daily humidity cycles. A full tile roof replacement in Kendall, including new underlayment and reusing or replacing tile by section, lets us catch what the naked eye misses.
Metal Roof Replacement
Standing-seam metal roofs are gaining ground in Kendall because they shed wind-driven rain well and hold up to Miami-Dade’s design wind loads. We install metal systems that meet HVHZ uplift requirements, with every seam and fastener spec’d to the wind zone your specific Kendall block sits in. No two Kendall streets are identical on wind exposure, and we treat each roof accordingly.
Roof Repair and Tie-Down Upgrades
Not every Kendall roof needs full replacement. Sometimes the decking is sound but the perimeter attachment is weak. We perform roof repairs and strap upgrades that bring aging Kendall roofs closer to current code, which is exactly what wind-mitigation inspectors like to see. If a full replacement is the smarter call, we’ll tell you plainly and show you why on the roof itself.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall
Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for eight premium brands, and on Kendall roofing jobs the materials we specify carry Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval numbers matched to your specific roof assembly. We work with proven roofing systems and pair them with the window and door brands Kendall homeowners already know us for, including CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems. When a roof replacement opens the conversation about impact-rated windows, we stock and source local parts so the project moves without a month-long hold-up. Fast turnaround on materials keeps Kendall jobs on schedule.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Kendall Homes
- Failed underlayment beneath aging tile. Kendall’s heat and near-daily humidity cycles break down old felt underlayment decades before the tile above it shows damage. By the time a leak appears in the ceiling, the underlayment has often been compromised across a large section of the roof.
- Original 1980s roof-to-wall flashing that’s opened up. CBS construction in Kendall means roof flashing terminates at concrete block walls. After 30-plus years of thermal expansion and Hurricane Andrew-era stress, those seams fail and let wind-driven rain behind the stucco.
- Non-code-compliant re-roofs done before the HVHZ took full effect. Some Kendall homes were re-roofed in the late 1990s with materials that wouldn’t pass a Miami-Dade inspection today. Owners only discover this when an insurer orders an inspection and the roof comes back with a deficiency notice.
- Insufficient roof deck attachment for wind uplift. Older Kendall homes often have plywood decking nailed at spacing that doesn’t meet current HVHZ uplift requirements. A roof replacement is the moment to correct this, because the deck is exposed and the fix costs far less than doing it later as a separate repair.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Kendall, FL
Here’s what roofing actually costs in Kendall right now. A standard architectural shingle tear-off and replacement on a 1,800-square-foot CBS home runs $9,500-$14,000. Tile roof replacement on the same home lands between $18,000 and $28,000 depending on tile type and how much of the existing tile can be salvaged. Standing-seam metal runs $16,000-$26,000. These are installed prices including underlayment, permit coordination, and code-required upgrades. What moves the number in Kendall specifically: whether your home sits in a wind-borne debris region, roof height, the condition of the existing decking, and whether we’re tying into existing tie-downs or installing new straps. Call (863) 946-5039 for a free in-home measure and a written line-item quote. You’ll know the number before you sign anything.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Kendall
If you’re replacing windows alongside your roof, which is common in Kendall because pre-1992 aluminum frames are triggering insurance non-renewals, here’s where that pricing lands. Impact windows generally run $800-$1,500 per window installed. Impact single-hung units run $900-$1,800. Large or custom openings, like a picture window or a sliding glass door wall, run $2,500-$5,000. Whole-home packages land between $8,000 and $25,000 and up depending on opening count. What moves the price in Kendall: how many openings you have, the wind zone on your specific block, floor height, and whether we’re doing a full-frame replacement or a less invasive install. We measure everything in person and give you a written quote. No allowances that balloon later.
And here’s the thing we tell every Kendall homeowner considering a roof replacement alongside windows. Older concrete-block homes from the 1970s through the 1990s hide framing problems behind aged aluminum windows. Rotted or undersized wood bucks, failed jamb seals, and water intrusion that’s been quietly working for years. When a permit opens that wall, the inspector will require HVHZ-compliant corrections. We write those allowances into the contract up front. If the framing is worse than expected, the change order comes to you in writing with a price attached, and you approve it before we touch anything else. No surprise invoices after the fact.
Florida Pays You Back
Kendall homeowners replacing a roof and impact-rated windows together can stack several incentive programs. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida offers a sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75-$150, windstorm-premium credits average roughly 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy. We don’t control program funding or your carrier’s final numbers, so we won’t promise a figure. We will point you to the programs and make sure the products we install in Kendall meet the eligibility criteria. That part we control.
One comparison worth making if you’re weighing your options: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters are cheaper up front, but they only protect when someone is home to deploy them. Impact windows protect permanently, with no panels to haul out of a garage in Kendall’s August heat, no storage, and no forgotten installs before a storm. We never sell or install shutters. We install impact-rated windows that are always working, whether you’re home or not.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Kendall
Kendall falls entirely within Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which mandates that every replacement window and door carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, a stricter product-approval standard than the Florida Building Code. Broward County operates under a different wind zone and approval framework, so a product that passes there can fail inspection here. If your Kendall roof replacement opens walls and triggers window or door replacement, you need NOA-approved units or the final inspection will not pass. Call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll spec compliant products from the start.
Opening walls in a 1970s-1990s Kendall CBS home can trigger upgrades to framing, waterproofing, and impact-rating requirements that didn’t exist when the house was built. Rotted or undersized wood bucks behind old aluminum windows must be corrected to current HVHZ standards, wall penetrations must be re-flashed, and any new window or door must carry a Miami-Dade NOA. We write these allowances into the contract before demolition starts, so you’re never blindsided by a code upgrade discovered mid-job.
Yes, they’re causing non-renewals. Florida insurers are actively surcharging or dropping policies on Kendall homes that still have original pre-Andrew, non-impact aluminum windows. A roof replacement alone does not fix the window problem. The two often make sense together, because your roof permit opens the conversation and a bundled project lowers mobilization costs. If your insurer is pressuring you, call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll tell you what a compliant window package costs for your Kendall home.
A Miami-Dade NOA is a product approval issued specifically for use in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, with stricter testing for wind pressure, impact, and water intrusion than the statewide Florida Product Approval. Think of it as a higher bar. In Kendall, NOA approval is mandatory for windows and doors in new openings. In Broward, Florida Product Approval alone is often enough. Contractors who don’t check the Miami-Dade product-approval database before ordering windows for a Kendall job routinely trigger failed inspections and costly reorders. We check before we order. Every time.
We inspect first, then write allowances into the contract, then price any surprise in writing before we touch the affected area. In the Crossings neighborhood of Kendall, our crew opened up a 1984 CBS home for a full-frame window replacement and found original single-pane aluminum sliders with heavily oxidized frames and failed jamb seals. The permit inspection mandated upgrades to HVHZ design pressure, so we replaced the units with Miami-Dade NOA-approved PGT impact-rated glazing and wrote the surprise framing rework into a change order approved in writing before we touched the wall. That’s the standard on every Kendall job. Call (863) 946-5039 to schedule your free estimate.
