Roof replacement, repair, and emergency tarping for Homestead homeowners. Hurricane-rated roofing for South Miami-Dade. Tile, metal, and shingle systems. Free inspections.
Homestead sits at the southern tip of Miami-Dade County — one of the areas hardest hit by Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and a community that knows better than most how important a properly built roof is. Today's Homestead homes must meet strict Miami-Dade HVHZ building codes designed to withstand major hurricane events.

Homestead sits at the southern end of Miami-Dade, near the Redland and the gateway to the Everglades and the Keys. Most of the housing here is homes rebuilt after Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and large newer subdivisions built from the late 1990s through today, and the roofs I work on most are shingle and concrete tile, with metal increasingly chosen for replacements.
Hurricane Andrew made landfall near Homestead in 1992, and much of the city was rebuilt in the years that followed. Roofs from that rebuild are now at or past the end of their life.
Homestead is more exposed to open-country wind than the urban areas to the north, so wind-rated installation details, like fastening patterns and secondary water barriers, matter here.
Newer subdivisions like Keys Gate and Waterstone have HOAs that approve roof color and material.
A full roof replacement in Homestead always requires a permit, and in Homestead that's handled by the City of Homestead Building Department. The work is inspected in stages, typically after the tear-off and dry-in and again at final, and your insurer will want to see the closed permit.
