Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Coral Gables’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company

Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is on the door, and on every job we do. Homeowners in Coral Gables keep calling us back because we show up when we say we will, we put pricing in writing before work starts, and we don’t hide behind call centers. When you call (904) 478-8983, you get a person, not a voicemail tree.

We’ve worked on homes off Hardee Road, along Alhambra Circle, and throughout the Granada and Country Club sections. Coral Gables roofs sit on structures that are 70 to 100 years old in many cases, and that changes how we approach flashing, underlayment, and decking inspection. We know the HPB’s expectations, and we know Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code. That combination saves Coral Gables homeowners from permit rejections and rework.

Every technician who steps onto your Coral Gables roof is background-checked and uniformed. You’ll know who you’re letting onto your property before the truck pulls up. And if something isn’t done right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right, period.

Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Coral Gables

Shingle Roofing in Coral Gables

Architectural asphalt shingles remain a solid choice for Coral Gables homes that need a reliable, cost-effective roof without the weight of tile. A typical shingle roof replacement on a 2,000-square-foot Coral Gables home runs $14,000 to $22,000. We install shingles rated for Miami-Dade’s HVHZ, and we always replace drip edge, underlayment, and flashing rather than layering over old materials, which a lot of crews try to get away with.

Tile Roofing in Coral Gables

Barrel tile is the signature look across Coral Gables, from the Deering Bay area to the streets around the Biltmore. The original 1920s and 1930s Mediterranean Revival homes were built with clay barrel tile, and when we replace those roofs, we match profile and color so the HPB doesn’t have grounds to object. Tile roofing in Coral Gables typically runs $28,000 to $48,000 depending on the tile profile, roof complexity, and whether we’re reusing existing underlayment (we rarely recommend that).

Metal Roofing in Coral Gables

Standing seam metal has grown in Coral Gables because it handles hurricane wind loads exceptionally well and sheds water fast during those afternoon deluges. A standing seam metal roof on a typical Coral Gables home runs $24,000 to $40,000. We work with metal systems that carry Miami-Dade NOA approval, and we can install over existing decking if it’s sound, which sometimes saves Coral Gables homeowners a few thousand dollars in tear-off costs.

Roof Repair in Coral Gables

Storm damage, cracked tile, failed flashing, and leaks around penetrations are the most common repair calls we get in Coral Gables. A repair visit typically runs $400 to $1,800 depending on what we find, and we always provide a written line-item quote before touching anything. If your Coral Gables roof is leaking, call (904) 478-8983 and we’ll get someone out to assess it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Coral Gables

We’re authorized installers for eight premium brands, including PGT, CGI, and CWS. For Coral Gables homeowners, that matters because these manufacturers maintain Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA listings for their roofing-adjacent components, and we stock common parts locally so repairs don’t stall waiting on a freight truck from out of state. When we install PGT or CGI products, you’re getting materials engineered specifically for Miami-Dade’s wind zone, not a one-size-fits-all product shipped in from up north.

Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Coral Gables Homes

• Cracked or slipped barrel tile. Coral Gables’ mature tree canopy drops branches and debris onto roofs constantly, and a cracked tile that goes unrepaired lets water into the underlayment. On older Coral Gables homes, that water finds its way into the original wood decking fast.
• Failed flashing around chimneys and parapets. The Mediterranean Revival homes in Coral Gables often have decorative chimney caps and parapet walls. The original flashing from the 1930s was often made of materials that have long since corroded, and that’s where leaks start.
• Underlayment rot under tile roofs. Many Coral Gables tile roofs still sit on the original underlayment from decades ago. When it fails, the tile looks fine from the street but the roof is leaking into the attic. We see this on homes in the Country Club section and around Riviera Drive regularly.
• Metal roof seam separation at roof transitions. Coral Gables homes with metal roofs, especially on additions or carports, often show separation at the seams where two roof planes meet. The thermal cycling from Coral Gables’ hot sun and afternoon storms works those seams loose over time.

Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Coral Gables, FL

What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Coral Gables

Let’s put real numbers on it. Architectural shingle roofs on a standard Coral Gables ranch or two-story Mediterranean home generally run $14,000 to $22,000 installed. Barrel tile roofs, which dominate the city’s historic districts, run $28,000 to $48,000 when you factor in the tile itself, the heavier underlayment, and the labor that goes into matching those curved profiles. Standing seam metal runs $24,000 to $40,000, and it’s become a popular choice for Coral Gables homeowners who want something that laughs at hurricane season.

What moves these numbers: the number of roof penetrations (chimneys, vents, skylights), the pitch, whether we’re tearing off one layer or two, and whether the home sits in a historic district where tile color and profile have to match the original. Coral Gables homes built on coral rock often have masonry walls that require special flashing details at the roofline, which adds a bit of labor. The best way to know your number is a free in-home measure and written quote. Call (904) 478-8983 and we’ll schedule it.

Florida Pays You Back

Florida has real money on the table for Coral Gables homeowners replacing roofs and windows. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and a roof that meets HVHZ standards can qualify. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, and the federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying units. Many Coral Gables homeowners also see windstorm-premium credits after a wind-mitigation inspection, typically averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of the premium, and that inspection runs $75 to $150. Programs and carriers set the final numbers, so we can’t guarantee an exact dollar figure, but we’ll point you toward every credit you’re eligible for.

One thing worth knowing: if you’re weighing impact windows versus hurricane shutters, the permanent route wins in Coral Gables. Shutters sit in a garage until the storm comes, and someone has to be home, strong enough to hang them, and willing to stand on a ladder in wind. Impact-rated windows and doors are always in place. No panels, no lost keys, no panic at the last minute. For Coral Gables homes in historic districts, the HPB often prefers impact windows over shutters anyway, since shutters change the exterior appearance when deployed.

What Opening Up an Older Coral Gables Home Actually Turns Up

Here’s what we’ve learned after years of remodeling and replacing windows in Coral Gables: when you open the walls on a 1920s or 1930s Mediterranean Revival home, you don’t always find what the original blueprints promised. Outdated wiring often runs through the same cavities where new window frames need anchoring. The wood studs around original casement openings are sometimes undersized or already compromised by decades of humidity. Waterproofing details that were standard in 1930 are nowhere near what Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code demands today.

That’s the single biggest reason a window replacement or remodel quote moves once work starts, and we handle it differently. We inspect first, before we quote. We write allowances into the contract for the things we suspect we’ll find, and if we find something nobody saw coming, we price it and get your written approval before we touch it. No assumptions, no surprises on the invoice. Ed Winslow’s name is on every job we do in Coral Gables, and he doesn’t build a reputation on burying change orders.

The Coral Gables Historic Preservation Board and Your Roof

Coral Gables is a master-planned Mediterranean Revival city, built mostly between the 1920s and 1940s under George Merrick’s vision. That legacy means the city’s Historic Preservation Board, the HPB, requires design approval for window and door replacements on contributing structures. Not every home in Coral Gables is a contributing structure, but thousands are, and if yours is, you can’t just swap in any impact-rated product. The HPB wants arched profiles preserved, divided lites matched, and period-appropriate materials respected.

At the same time, Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules mean every replacement window and door in Coral Gables must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, or NOA, which is the most stringent hurricane-product approval standard in the United States. Basic aluminum single-pane windows or non-impact products are simply illegal to install here. So Coral Gables homeowners live under a dual-compliance burden: hurricane engineering married to historic preservation sign-off. That burden does not exist in Kendall, South Miami, or unincorporated Miami-Dade. It’s unique to this city.

We see the consequence of getting this wrong all the time. A contractor flattens an original arched opening to fit a standard rectangular impact unit. The HPB rejects the design. The homeowner is out the cost of fabrication and months of permit delay. We keep relationships with fabricators who can bend custom impact-rated frames to match the original radius, which is a specialty skill that rarely comes up two miles away in unincorporated Miami-Dade. For Coral Gables homeowners, that relationship is the difference between a permit that closes and one that stalls.

What We Found on a 1930s Home off Hardee Road

On a 1930s Mediterranean Revival home off Hardee Road, we opened up the original wood casement openings only to find coral rock substrates that had shifted over decades, leaving the jambs out of square. That’s a common find in Coral Gables, where so many homes sit on coral rock that moves over time. Our techs used custom-fabricated PGT impact-rated casement units with laminated glass interlayers, bent to match the original arched radius, and anchored the new frames into the coral rock with epoxy-set anchors before reinstalling the stucco returns. The HPB approved the design without objection, and the homeowner now enjoys a wind mitigation credit on their policy. That’s the standard we bring to every Coral Gables job.
