Miami-Dade has the strictest roofing rules in the country, and they are not advisory. As a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, every tile, shingle, panel, underlayment and fastener installed here must carry a current Notice of Acceptance — and the design wind speed the code assumes is 175 mph. This page lists roofers serving Miami.
What Miami roofers handle
HVHZ-compliant re-roofing, with NOA documentation as part of the job.
Tile replacement on the barrel and flat tile that dominates the older stock.
Flat and low-slope roofing across the extensive flat-roofed housing and commercial stock.
Hurricane damage repair and replacement.
Secondary water barrier installation, required throughout the HVHZ.
Corrosion-aware detailing, given constant salt air.
Licensing in Florida
Florida requires a state roofing licence, and you can check it. There are two kinds:
- Certified Roofing Contractor (CCC prefix) — passed the state roofing exam and can work anywhere in Florida
- Registered Roofing Contractor (RC prefix) — competent to work only in the specific city or county that issued their certificate of competency
Both must satisfy state requirements for financial responsibility and insurance. Verify any licence at myfloridalicense.com before signing — it takes a minute, and there is no reason for a legitimate Florida roofer to be missing from it.
The 25% rule applies statewide. If more than 25% of a roof’s total area, or of a roof section, is repaired, replaced or recovered within any 12-month period, the entire roofing system or section must be brought up to current code.
That matters more than it sounds. A large repair can trigger a full code-compliant replacement at a very different price, and the 12-month window is cumulative — two separate repairs can cross the threshold together. Ask any contractor to state in writing whether the proposed work crosses 25%.
What’s specific to Miami
Every component needs a Notice of Acceptance. In the HVHZ, each tile, shingle, metal panel, underlayment and fastener system must carry a current Miami-Dade NOA — or an equivalent Florida Product Approval rated for HVHZ use. The NOA is issued by Miami-Dade Product Control after TAS testing and carries a designation in the form NOA xx-xxxx.xx.
Approvals renew annually. A product that was approved when it was specified may not be approved when it is installed. Ask the contractor to confirm the NOA is current at the time of installation, not at the time of quoting — this is the detail that fails inspections.
The attachment pattern is code, not preference. The HVHZ mandates a 6-nail pattern, stronger roof-deck attachment, and a self-adhering secondary water barrier to ASTM D1970 beneath the covering. A quote that does not mention the secondary water barrier is either incomplete or non-compliant.
Design wind speed is 175 mph. Miami-Dade sits at the top of the Florida Building Code’s wind map for Risk Category II construction. That is what the fastening and product rules exist to survive.
Salt air attacks the metal parts first. Fasteners, flashing and vents corrode well ahead of the covering. Specification on those small components decides how long the roof lasts.
Pricing expectations
Miami figures for 2026, as published by local roofing companies:
- Full replacement, all types: $12,000–$45,000+
- Architectural shingle: $12,000–$26,000 across the two guides
- Concrete tile: $22,000–$44,000; clay tile $24,000–$48,000; one guide puts tile as high as $70,000+
- Standing seam metal: $27,000–$55,000
- Flat roof systems: $10,000–$26,000
Miami is the most expensive market on this site, and the reason is regulatory rather than geographic. Miami-Dade is a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and one local guide spells out what that means on the job: secondary water barriers, ring-shank nailing patterns and NOA-approved products are all required. Those are not upgrades a salesperson offers — they are the minimum legal specification, and the guide states its prices already include them. That is why a Miami quote that looks cheap against a Florida average deserves a hard look at whether it is HVHZ-compliant. Florida’s 25 percent rule also applies here, so a large repair can trigger a full code-compliant replacement.
These are ranges local roofing companies publish for this metro rather than survey data, so treat them as a bracket to check a quote against, not a price list.
Two contract items: that every product quoted carries a Miami-Dade NOA approval, since HVHZ requires it, and whether the work crosses the 25 percent threshold and triggers a full code upgrade.

How this directory helps
Every roofer here is listed with business name, address and phone so you can verify them yourself.
Three questions sort Miami contractors. Ask for the licence number and check it at myfloridalicense.com. Ask them to confirm every component’s NOA is current at installation, not just at quoting. And ask whether the quote includes the secondary water barrier the HVHZ requires.
