Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Three Lakes’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company

Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is still on the door. That means something in Three Lakes, where homeowners have been burned by out-of-town crews who quote one number, start tearing off shingles, and then discover a “problem” that doubles the invoice. We do fixed pricing with no change orders once the contract is signed. If we miss something during the estimate, that’s our cost, not yours. Our published address and license number are on every document we hand you, and we pull permits on every roof job in Three Lakes. No exceptions.

Our reviews from Three Lakes customers are the strongest proof we can offer. Homeowners mention the same three things: the crew arrived when promised, the work matched the quote, and the job site was clean at the end of the day. We’re not the cheapest bid in Three Lakes, and we don’t try to be. We’re the crew you call when you want the roof done once, to the code Miami-Dade actually enforces.

One more thing about how we run jobs in Three Lakes: everyone who steps onto your property is background-checked and uniformed. You’ll know who’s on your roof before the truck door opens. And if you call at 2 a.m. because a branch punched through your roof, a live person answers. Not a voicemail. Not a call center. A person who can dispatch a crew to Three Lakes the same day.

Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Three Lakes

We handle the full roof system: shingle, tile, and metal, across every Three Lakes neighborhood from SW 137th Ave to the quiet streets east of the turnpike. Every job starts with a roof walk and a written scope. Here’s what we do most often for Three Lakes homeowners.

Tile Roofing

Tile roofs are everywhere in Three Lakes because they were the default choice for concrete block homes built in the 1970s through early 1990s. The problem is that most of those original tile installations predate Hurricane Andrew and the HVHZ code rewrite that followed. We tear off old clay or concrete tile, inspect the deck, replace rotted underlayment, and install a Miami-Dade NOA-approved tile system rated for the design pressures Three Lakes actually sees. We also handle tile-to-metal transitions, ridge repairs, and re-bedding loose tiles before they become projectiles.

Metal Roofing

Metal roofing is gaining ground in Three Lakes because it handles the salt-laden humidity better than shingle and weighs a fraction of tile. We install standing-seam and metal tile profiles with NOA-listed fastening patterns. In Three Lakes’ coastal air, fastener and flashing corrosion is the number one long-term failure point, so we spec stainless or coated fasteners and never cut corners on flashing. A metal roof done right here will outlast the underlayment beneath it. We do both.

Shingle Roofing

Shingle roofs in Three Lakes take a beating from UV and wind-driven rain. We replace architectural asphalt shingle systems with upgraded synthetic underlayment and reinforced nailing patterns that meet current HVHZ wind-load requirements. If your shingle roof is older than 15 years, the underlayment is usually the first thing to go, and by the time you see a ceiling stain, the deck may be compromised too. We inspect before we quote, so you know what’s actually failing.

Roof Repair & Storm Damage Response

Three Lakes sits in a direct hurricane threat corridor, and wind events expose weak points fast: lifted ridge caps, cracked tile corners, punctured flashing, and peeled-back shingle edges. We respond to Three Lakes for emergency tarping and temporary water mitigation, then follow with a permanent repair or replacement scope. If you’ve got a recent storm, call us before the next one arrives. Water intrusion never gets better on its own.

Trusted Brands We Service in Three Lakes

We install and service roofing systems built for South Florida conditions, and we keep a stocked inventory of common replacement parts local to Three Lakes so we’re not waiting on a distributor in Fort Lauderdale when your roof is open. Among the brands we work with are CWS and ES Windows for integrated roof-to-wall flashing details that matter on Three Lakes’ shallow-slope concrete block homes, plus ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass for the skylight and curb-mount glazing work that often accompanies a re-roof. We’ll never push you toward a brand we don’t believe in. We’ll push you toward the one that matches your budget and your roof’s actual geometry.

Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Three Lakes Homes

Three Lakes has a signature set of roof failures, and they repeat from street to street. Here’s what we find most often on our initial walk-throughs:

• Lifted and missing clay tiles on pre-1992 tile roofs. The original mortar-set tiles were never designed for HVHZ wind uplift. Once one lifts, wind gets underneath and peels the field open. Most Three Lakes tile roof leaks start as a two-tile problem and end up as a 400-square-foot problem by the time someone calls us.
• Corroded metal flashings and fasteners. Salt-laden humidity in Three Lakes chews through galvanized flashing and standard steel fasteners in seven to ten years. We see rust-through at pipe boots, chimney crickets, and wall transitions on almost every original metal and tile roof we inspect here.
• Standing water on shallow-slope concrete block homes. Many Three Lakes homes have roof pitches under 4:12. Combined with debris from live oaks and palms, drainage paths clog, water ponds, and tile spalling or underlayment rot follows. A full HVHZ-compliant re-roof with proper drainage slope correction is the only lasting fix.
• Original shingle roofs with blown-off ridge caps. Three Lakes’ shingle roofs from the early 2000s are aging out, and ridge caps are always the first casualty. Once the ridge is exposed, the entire roof envelope is compromised, and you’re one summer storm from interior damage.

Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Three Lakes, FL

What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Three Lakes

Roofing costs in Three Lakes are driven by three things: roof size, the wind zone you’re in, and the product system you choose. HVHZ compliance isn’t optional here, and that’s a good thing. It means every quote from us already includes the Miami-Dade NOA-rated materials, the design pressure calculations, and the permit package that a cheap out-of-county crew might conveniently leave out. Here’s where Three Lakes pricing typically lands:

• Architectural shingle replacement: $9,000-$22,000 on a standard single-story home.
• Concrete or clay tile replacement: $18,000-$45,000, heavily influenced by tile profile and existing deck condition.
• Standing-seam or metal tile systems: $22,000-$55,000, depending on panel gauge, seam profile, and trim complexity.
• Storm repair or isolated replacement: $400-$3,000 for flashing, ridge, and tile re-bedding work.

Floor height and roof access affect labor: a two-story Three Lakes home or a roof with difficult access adds cost. So does the age of your roof deck. If the 1970s plywood or nailers are rotted, replacement is mandatory under code, and a cheap quote that skips the deck inspection is not a bargain. It’s a time bomb. Our quotes include the deck inspection and the honest deck assessment. Always.

Florida Pays You Back

Three Lakes homeowners have access to real money for storm-hardening work. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and a new HVHZ-compliant roof is exactly the kind of improvement the program exists to fund. Roof materials and labor also qualify for Florida’s sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant building products, which takes 6% to 7% off the invoice immediately. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit applies to qualifying reflective roofing systems, good for up to $600 per year in product cost. And once your new roof is installed and inspected, a windstorm-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150) can unlock premium credits on the windstorm portion of your policy, often in the 20% to 30% range. We don’t promise a specific credit. We promise we’ll document the compliance so you can actually claim what you’re owed. Call (904) 478-8983 and we’ll walk you through which programs fit your specific Three Lakes project.

Three Lakes Roof Code, Permits, and Insurance: What Actually Applies

Three Lakes sits entirely within Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-load designation in the United States. Every permitted roof replacement here must meet Miami-Dade NOA standards with large-missile-rated materials, a requirement that does not apply to neighboring cities outside the county line. That single fact changes everything about how we bid and build roofs in Three Lakes. A Coral Gables roofer working under Florida Building Code alone is not automatically qualified to work in Three Lakes’ HVHZ environment. We are.

What does that mean for your project? It means the roof deck gets inspected for structural integrity before any new material goes down. It means the underlayment, fastening schedule, and edge details are all spec’d to the specific design pressures mapped to your exact roof elevation and exposure. It means the tile or metal system we install carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance number that matches the configuration we’re actually installing, not a similar-looking product from a brochure. And it means the permit gets pulled, the mid-roof inspections get scheduled, and the final sign-off happens before we call the job done. A compliant roof in Three Lakes is a documented asset. A non-compliant one is a legal and financial liability, especially when you file your next insurance claim.

We recently replaced a failing 1980s tile roof in the Three Lakes neighborhood off SW 137th Ave, where the original clay tiles had cracked under decades of UV and salt-laden humidity, and the underlayment had deteriorated enough to let wind-driven rain into the concrete block home. We tore down to the deck, installed a Miami-Dade NOA-approved tile system with a reinforced underlayment meeting HVHZ design pressures, and upgraded the flashing to eliminate the leak that had plagued the family for two hurricane seasons. That job is what a compliant Three Lakes roof looks like. We’ve done the same on dozens of streets east of the turnpike.
