Trusted Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing for Miami Beach Homeowners
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Miami Beach costs between $450 and $1,200 per square (100 square feet) installed, with most full re-roofs on single-family homes running $18,000 to $45,000 depending on material and roof complexity. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and while our name speaks to glass, our roofing division has spent the last years setting shingle, barrel tile, and standing-seam metal roofs across Miami Beach, North Bay Village, and Surfside the same way we set every pane: true, square, and done right the first time. If you’re staring at a water stain spreading across your ceiling after a summer squall, call (386) 406-9359 now. A live person answers, 24/7.
Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a rule that still governs every job: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. The same standard applies to the ridge line on your roof, the lap on your shingles, and the flashing around your chimney. We serve homeowners in Miami Beach who have lived in their houses for twenty years or more and plan to stay. They want a roof that will still be shedding water in 2045, installed by people who will still be in town to answer the phone.

What Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Service Includes
Miami Beach roofs live a hard life. Salt air works on fasteners, the sun bakes shingles until they curl, and hurricane season tests every seam. We handle all three major roofing systems common to Miami Beach homes: asphalt shingle, clay and concrete tile, and standing-seam metal. Each has its own demands, its own failure points, and its own best practices for our climate. Here’s what each service includes, and what we do specifically.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing material in Miami Beach because they balance cost against our climate’s demands. Architectural shingles rated for 130 mph wind uplift are the minimum we install; three-tab shingles don’t hold up to Miami’s storm cycle. When we strip and re-shingle a roof in Miami Beach, we pull the old decking up where it’s soft, inspect the underlayment line by line, and install a synthetic underlayment with a self-sealing ice-and-water shield at the eaves. Shingle roofs in Miami Beach typically last 15-22 years before the granules wear thin and the mat starts showing.

Tile Roofing (Clay & Concrete)
Tile roofs are Miami Beach’s signature look, especially on the older Mediterranean and Spanish Revival homes in the North Shore and South of Fifth neighborhoods. Clay and concrete tiles shed heat well, but they crack, and a hairline crack in a barrel tile lets water sit against the underlayment until it rots through. We stock replacement tiles in common Miami Beach profiles and do targeted tile repair without tearing off the whole roof when the underlayment is still sound. When the underlayment is gone, we do a full lift-and-reset: every tile numbered, removed, underlayment replaced, tiles re-bedded and re-pointed.

Metal Roofing (Standing Seam & 5-V Crimp)
Standing-seam metal roofs are becoming common in Miami Beach because they handle wind better than any other system, and they shed rain like a tin shed in a thunderstorm. The catch is installation: metal expands and contracts with heat, and a poorly set panel with the wrong fastener gap will oil-can and work the screws loose in three years. We set metal panels with concealed clips and thermal spacers, so the roof moves the way it’s engineered to move. For Miami Beach homes within sight of the ocean, we recommend marine-grade coating or aluminum panels to resist salt corrosion.
All three systems require a properly installed roof deck and flashing. That’s where most roofers in Miami Beach cut corners, and it’s where we spend the extra hour. Flashing at the chimney, at the sidewall, at the roof-to-wall intersection: that’s where water enters. We flash every transition with weep holes and crickets where needed. A roof isn’t done when the last shingle is set. It’s done when the flashing is right and the ridge vent is drawing air.
Our roofing crews work in Miami Beach, Miami, Miami Shores, Bal Harbour, and the smaller municipalities along Biscayne Bay. We pull permits on every job. We schedule inspections with the city or county. We don’t leave a job open-ended. The permit is closed, the inspection passes, and the warranty paperwork is in your hand before the crew packs the ladders.

Brands We Service for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
We install and service roofing systems from the manufacturers that have stood up to Florida’s building code and Miami Beach’s coastal environment. Our crews are trained on each manufacturer’s installation requirements, because a warranty is only as good as the install that backs it.
GAF shingle systems are the most common we set in Miami Beach, and we’re a GAF-certified installer. We register every GAF system for the manufacturer’s wind and algae warranty, and we keep the registration paperwork in writing. Eagle concrete and clay tile is common on the pre-war homes of Miami Beach’s historic districts, and we keep a stock of their most common profiles for repair work so a cracked tile doesn’t become a six-month wait. DECRA stone-coated steel bridges the look of shingle or tile with the wind resistance of metal, and we set it regularly on oceanfront homes where salt air shortens the life of conventional materials. Whether you have one of these brands on your roof or any other make, we can help. A roof is a roof; what matters is the set underneath it.
Signs You Need Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Right Now
We get calls from Miami Beach homeowners who have watched a small problem grow for two years and now face a five-figure repair. Here are the signs that your roof is talking to you, and what each one means.
- Granules collecting in your gutters or at the downspout. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, and once the mat is peeking through, UV light breaks the shingle down fast. If you can see bare spots or the shingle edges are curling like old photo paper, the shingles have lost their adhesion and are waiting for the next tropical storm. In Miami Beach, that storm comes every year like clockwork.
- Water stains on your ceiling, especially after a driving rain. A stain means water is already through the roof deck and tracking along the framing. In Miami Beach homes with flat or low-slope sections (common on mid-century ranches), the water may travel ten feet from the actual leak before it shows on your ceiling. The stain you see is rarely where the hole is.
- Missing, cracked, or slipped tiles after a storm. A slipped tile exposes the underlayment, and underlayment is not a roof surface. It’s rated to shed water for about 90 days before it breaks down from UV exposure. One missing tile is a maintenance call. Five broken tiles with exposed underlayment and we’re looking at a repair that grows every week it waits.
- Visible rust or loose fasteners on a metal roof. Metal roofs in Miami Beach fail at the fasteners first. Salt air attacks the screw heads, the rubber washers dry and crack, and the screw backs out under wind vibration. A loose screw is a leak waiting for the next storm, and a dozen loose screws means the roof is working its way toward panel failure.
- Sagging or soft decking visible from the attic. Go up on a dry day and press on the plywood between the rafters. If it gives, the deck is compromised and your next roofline repair is a structural one. Soft decking doesn’t get better with time. It only gets wider and more expensive, and in Miami Beach humidity, the rot spreads faster than you think.
If you recognize any of these warning signs, call (386) 406-9359. We’ll send a uniformed technician to walk the roof, take photos, and give you an honest assessment. No scare tactics, no pressure. If it’s a $300 repair, we’ll tell you. If the roof has three years left, we’ll tell you that, too.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process - Step by Step
Roofing is disruptive. We know that a full tear-off in Miami Beach means two or three days of trucks in the driveway, nails in the grass, and the sound of hammers overhead. We do everything we can to make the process clear, predictable, and documented. Here’s how we work:
- 1
Free roof assessment and quote. Call us at (386) 406-9359 and a live person will schedule our estimator. They’ll walk the roof, check the attic, inspect the flashing, and write a line-item quote on paper: square count, material, underlayment, flashing, venting, permit fees, haul-off. You see every number before you sign anything.
- 2
Material selection and permit application. We bring sample boards to your home if you want them, and we quote manufacturer lines side by side. Once you pick the system, we submit the permit to Miami Beach Building Department and schedule your tear-off date. We don’t start work without a posted permit.
- 3
Tear-off and deck inspection. The day we start, we protect your landscaping with tarps, set up perimeter fall protection, and strip the old roof down to the deck. We inspect every sheet of plywood; anything soft, delaminated, or water-damaged gets replaced. In Miami Beach, code requires specific re-nailing patterns for wind uplift, and we follow them exactly.
- 4
Installation and flashing. This is where the trade craft happens. Underlayment goes down with the correct overlap. Shingles or tile or metal panels go on according to the manufacturer’s spec. Flashing is set at every transition, every chimney, every pipe boot. We install ridge vent and intake venting so the attic breathes.
- 5
Final inspection, warranty registration, and site cleanup. We schedule the city inspector. We walk the roof with you if you want. We sweep the property with a magnet bar to pick up errant nails. We hand you the warranty paperwork registered in writing - both manufacturer layers, with durations stated, filed before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s the Keystone Standard, and it’s not negotiable.
How Much Does Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Cost in Miami Beach?
A full shingle roof replacement on a 2,000-square-foot Miami Beach home typically runs $9,000 to $16,000. Tile roofs, with the lift-and-reset needed to replace underlayment, run $18,000 to $35,000. Standing-seam metal roofs run $25,000 to $45,000 depending on panel profile, gauge, and coating. These are installed prices including tear-off, dump fees, permit, and warranty registration. Smaller repairs - a patch of shingles, a broken tile, a section of loose metal - usually run $450 to $1,800.
What changes the price: the roof’s square footage and slope, the condition of the decking underneath, the number of penetrations (chimneys, vents, skylights), and whether the roof has multiple planes or dormers. A Miami Beach home with two stories, a steep pitch, and a tile roof on the original underlayment will cost at the top of the range. A single-story ranch with a simple hip roof and architectural shingles will fall at the bottom.
How to avoid overpaying: get line-item quotes, not a single number scrawled on a business card. Ask whether the quote includes permit fees and haul-off. Ask whether the warranty will be registered in writing. Ask who will be on the roof - the company’s own crew or a subcontractor. We quote everything on paper, use our own background-checked employees, and register every warranty before the job is closed. Call (386) 406-9359 for your free estimate, and you’ll have a written number the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Miami Beach
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing refers to the three main roofing systems used on Miami Beach homes. Asphalt shingles are a fiberglass mat coated in granules, tile is fired clay or formed concrete set in overlapping profiles, and metal roofing uses steel or aluminum panels with raised seams or crimps. We install, replace, and repair all three systems according to the manufacturer’s installation specs and Miami Beach’s wind-load code. If you’re not sure which system is on your roof, our estimator can tell you in five minutes from the ground.
Most shingle roof replacements on a typical Miami Beach home take two to three working days from tear-off to final inspection. Tile roofs add one to two days because of the lift-and-reset process. Metal roofs take three to five days depending on panel profile and roof complexity. Weather can push the schedule, and we’ll tell you before we start if rain is in the forecast. Call (386) 406-9359 for a timeline specific to your roof.
In Miami Beach, asphalt shingle roofs typically run $9,000 to $16,000 for a full replacement on an average single-family home.

Yes, we’re trained and certified on GAF shingle systems, Eagle tile, and DECRA stone-coated steel, and we register the manufacturer warranty on every install. We also service roofs from other manufacturers, including CWS and ES Windows roofing-related products, and we stock common replacement parts for rapid repair work. If your roof is still under manufacturer warranty, we can help you file the claim and complete the repair. Whatever the brand, we’ll give you an honest assessment of what it needs.
Yes. When a storm tears shingles off or a branch punctures the deck, water is already finding its way in. We prioritize emergency roof repairs and will send a technician to tarp and secure the opening as soon as possible. Call (386) 406-9359 any hour - a live person answers, and we’ll get someone moving.
Every roof we install carries the manufacturer’s warranty plus our Done Right Promise. We register both warranty layers in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. If anything isn’t done right within 90 days, we make it right - no paperwork fights, no arguing. We stand behind the work, the warranty, and the promise, all in writing.
Move vehicles out of the driveway on the day we start, and take down anything from the walls that could vibrate loose while we’re working overhead - pictures, mirrors, light fixtures. Cover items in the attic, since dust will sift through the framing. If you have a pool, we’ll tarp it or cover it before the tear-off. We’ll walk you through the full prep list when you schedule, and we’ll handle the heavy lifting on site protection.
