Roof replacement and repair on Key Biscayne, built for constant salt air and full hurricane exposure by state-licensed contractors.
Key Biscayne sits between Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic, so every roof on the island lives in salt spray and takes the full force of a hurricane. The roofing system matters, but so do the small metal parts, like flashing, drip edge, fasteners and vents, which corrode first.
The island mixes condo buildings with single-family homes, and many homes have been rebuilt or renovated. I help both homeowners and condo boards understand their options.
I'm Oscar Gonzalez, an independent roofing consultant. I work with a vetted network of licensed, insured roofing contractors and help Key Biscayne homeowners make confident decisions with honest advice and transparent pricing.
Done right, fully permitted, and built for South Florida weather.
Full roof replacement using tile, metal, shingle or flat systems. Fully permitted and built to the HVHZ code.

Fast tarping after storms or sudden damage, to protect your home until permanent repairs.

Every installation meets Miami-Dade HVHZ standards, with NOA-approved products, which is essential for insurance and wind mitigation credits.
A properly built new roof can lower your windstorm premium once a wind mitigation inspection documents it.
Your licensed contractor pulls the permit and schedules every inspection, from tin cap to final.
I'm a consultant, not a salesman. I tell you whether you need a repair or a replacement, and why.
Free inspection. Honest estimate. No pressure.
Coastal-grade fasteners and flashing should be specified in writing. Standard components corrode much faster here.
Condo buildings usually have flat roofs with rooftop equipment, which brings extra details around curbs, penetrations and drainage.
Older condo buildings three stories and taller are also subject to Florida's milestone inspection law, and the roof is often part of the repair list that follows.
Roofing permits here are handled by the Village of Key Biscayne building department. The work is inspected in stages, typically the tin cap, the dry-in and the final, and your insurer will want to see the closed permit.
Key Biscayne is in Miami-Dade's High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), the strictest roofing code in the country. Every product must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA).
Areas I serve include the single-family neighborhoods off Crandon Boulevard and the oceanfront and bayfront condo buildings.

Tile and metal both work well when the components are chosen for salt air: the right metal alloy and finish, stainless or coated fasteners and good edge metal. I'll compare options for your exact exposure.
Yes. I help boards get bids scoped the same way, check product approvals and drainage, and present the options so the board can vote with confidence.
