Fast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Fountainebleau
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Fountainebleau costs between $9,500 and $28,000 for a typical 1,800 to 2,600 square foot home, depending on material and the condition of what’s underneath. But here’s what most Fountainebleau homeowners don’t hear until the second or third estimate: if your house still has original jalousie windows or pre-1992 aluminum frames, the roof is only half the job. Salt air off Biscayne Bay eats standard fasteners in five to seven years, and a reroof that ignores the openings around it leaves you paying twice.

Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Fountainebleau’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company
Ed Winslow started this company in 2011 and put his name on the door. That’s not a slogan. When a Fountainebleau homeowner calls us about a roof that’s leaking around a window frame, Ed is the one who makes sure the right crew shows up with the right materials. We answer the phone live, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No call centers. No voicemail loops. A real person picks up, day or night.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing team works throughout Fountainebleau regularly, from the condominium clusters off Fontainebleau Boulevard to the single-family CBS homes west of the Turnpike. We’re familiar with the county permit process here, which is different from what you’d deal with in a city like Miami or Coral Gables. Fountainebleau is unincorporated Miami-Dade, so every permit runs through county DPERM, not a local building department. We know exactly what inspectors look for before we start, and that keeps your project from stalling.

Shingle Roof Replacement in Fountainebleau
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing choice across Fountainebleau’s 1960s-1980s housing stock. The original roofs on many of these CBS homes have been replaced once, sometimes twice. What we see often: original 3-tab shingles that have lost granule surface after decades of afternoon thunderstorm pressure swings and high humidity. We tear off to the deck, inspect for the hidden rot that wind-driven rain creates, then install a complete system with proper underlayment and stainless fasteners that won’t corrode in salt-laden air.

Tile Roofing in Fountainebleau
Cement and clay tile roofs are common on Fountainebleau homes built in the 1970s and 1980s. The tile itself lasts decades. What fails first is the flashing and underlayment beneath it. When we reroof a tile home, we don’t just reset tiles. We replace valley metal, curb flashing, and all penetration boots with coastal-spec materials. Cheap inland-spec flashing loses adhesion in South Florida humidity and lets water migrate behind tiles at curbs and valleys – we’ve seen the resulting deck rot too many times to cut that corner.

Metal Roofing in Fountainebleau
Standing-seam and metal shingle systems have grown popular in Fountainebleau for one reason: they shed rainfall fast and hold up in wind. But the fasteners matter more than the metal. Standard zinc-coated screws corrode in salt air within five to seven years. We specify stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware on every metal roof we install here. That single change adds roughly 8-12% to material cost and buys you decades before the first fastener failure.

Roof Repair and Storm Damage Response
After a tropical system passes through Fountainebleau, we get calls about lifted shingles, cracked tiles, and leaks that trace back to window frames as often as to the roof itself. We inspect the whole opening, not just the roof edge above it. If wind-driven rain got in around a jalousie window, a roof patch won’t stop the next storm. We’ll tell you that straight, and we’ll quote both fixes separately so you can see exactly what each part costs.

Trusted Brands We Service in Fountainebleau
We install and service roofing paired with impact-rated window and door systems from brands we trust in Fountainebleau’s salt-air, hurricane-exposure conditions: PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru among our authorized lineup. We don’t carry every brand on the market because we won’t install a product we wouldn’t put on Ed’s own house. For Fountainebleau customers, we keep commonly needed components stocked locally so replacements don’t wait on out-of-state freight. If you have an existing brand you’re committed to, we’ll look at your spec and tell you honestly whether it meets Miami-Dade NOA requirements for this area.
Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Fountainebleau Homes
- Corroded fasteners around roof penetrations. Salt air from Biscayne Bay reaches Fountainebleau even miles inland, and non-stainless screws in boots, flashing, and ridge caps start failing within a few years. We see leaks around plumbing vents and exhaust hoods long before the roofing material itself shows wear.
- Hidden deck rot from wind-driven rain at window heads. Original jalousie and non-impact aluminum frames on pre-1992 homes let water run down inside the wall cavity and rot the roof deck from beneath. The first visible sign is often a stained ceiling corner, not a roof leak.
- Underlayment failure under cement tile. The tile looks fine, but the 30-year-old asphalt-saturated felt underneath has turned to powder. High humidity and afternoon thunderstorm pressure swings accelerate this. You won’t know until water pours through a light fixture.
- Flashing separation at curbs and valleys. Inland-spec sealants lose bond in South Florida’s humidity and thermal cycling. We find open gaps at wall intersections and valley metal that lifted away from the deck, allowing water to travel horizontally before it shows up as a ceiling stain.
Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Fountainebleau, FL
Here are the honest Fountainebleau ranges our quotes typically land in. Architectural shingle tear-off and replacement: $6,500 to $12,000 for a 1,800-2,600 square foot home. Cement tile replacement using existing tile with new underlayment: $11,000 to $19,000. New clay or full cement tile: $18,000 to $32,000. Standing-seam metal: $16,000 to $28,000 with coastal-spec fasteners. If your home also needs impact window replacement as part of the reroof (and many Fountainebleau pre-1992 homes do), the window portion typically adds $800-$1,500 per opening installed. The exact number depends on opening count, wind zone, floor height, and whether your existing rough openings match current code. Call (863) 251-5864 for a free in-home measure and a written line-item quote. You won’t get a ballpark guess over the phone, and the number we give you is the number on the invoice.
What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Fountainebleau
Impact windows alone in Fountainebleau run $800-$1,500 per standard opening installed. Impact single-hung: $900-$1,800. Large or custom openings: $2,500-$5,000. Whole-home packages for a 1,800-2,600 square foot CBS home with 15-25 openings: $8,000-$25,000 or more. What moves the price in Fountainebleau specifically: your home’s wind zone (unincorporated Miami-Dade is High Velocity Hurricane Zone), the number and size of openings, whether you’re on a ground floor or upper floor of a low-rise building, and whether your home still has original jalousie frames that need full rough-opening modification. A 1970s CBS home off Fontainebleau Boulevard with 18 original jalousie windows will land at the upper end. A home with standard 36-by-60 sliders already in impact-rated frames lands lower. We measure, we price, we write it down. Free, at your kitchen table.
Florida Pays You Back
There’s real money available for Fountainebleau homeowners doing impact-rated work, and you should know about it before you sign anything. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. And many insurers offer windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion after a passing wind-mitigation inspection ($75-$150). We don’t guarantee any of these numbers – programs and carriers set their own final figures – but we’ll point you to the application paths and inspection requirements that apply in Miami-Dade.
One comparison worth making: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters require you to be home when a storm approaches, physically hang panels in wind, and store them somewhere dry the other 364 days a year. Impact windows are always in place. They don’t require action, they don’t get lost in the garage, and they don’t leave your house unprotected if you’re out of town when a hurricane shifts toward Fountainebleau. We don’t sell or install shutters. We install the permanent solution.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Fountainebleau
Because Fountainebleau is unincorporated Miami-Dade County, every replacement window and door on your home must carry a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA), a stricter product-approval tier than neighboring Broward County enforces. If your 1960s-1980s CBS home still has original jalousie or non-impact aluminum frames, those openings will fail wind-driven rain penetration even with a brand-new roof above them. We quote the roof and the openings separately so you see exactly what each part costs, and you decide what gets done now versus later. Call (863) 251-5864 to get a written breakdown for your specific home.
A Miami-Dade NOA is a county-level product approval that exceeds the statewide Florida Building Code standard. It requires physical testing at higher wind pressures and stricter quality-control documentation than a Florida Product Approval alone. In unincorporated Fountainebleau, county inspectors specifically verify that both the NOA number and your installer’s state-licensed contractor number appear on the permit application. Crews who don’t work Miami-Dade regularly get tripped up on this. We file these permits every week. Call (863) 251-5864 and we’ll explain your specific permit path.
Salt-laden air from Biscayne Bay travels miles inland to Fountainebleau and corrodes standard zinc-coated fasteners within five to seven years, causing leaks around window frames, flashing screws, and roof penetration boots even when the roofing material itself is sound. We specify stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware on every metal roof and flashing job we do here. It costs roughly 8-12% more upfront and avoids a second full replacement within a decade. Call (863) 251-5864 for a quote that includes the right fasteners, not the cheap ones.
Impact-rated windows must pass Miami-Dade NOA testing, which means laminated glass with a structural interlayer, heavier frames engineered to a specific design pressure (never above +/-100 PSF rating), and stricter installation requirements including specific anchoring patterns. Ordinary tempered glass stops nothing in hurricane-force wind and doesn’t meet Fountainebleau’s opening-protection code. The price difference reflects real engineering and physical testing, not markups. A standard impact window in Fountainebleau runs $800-$1,500 installed. Call (863) 251-5864 to see which specific NOA-tested configurations fit your openings.
Yes, most Florida insurers offer windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of your premium after a passing wind-mitigation inspection, which typically costs $75-$150. Because Fountainebleau sits in Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, the credit is often meaningful. We don’t guarantee your carrier’s final number, but we’ll walk you through the inspection requirements and documentation your insurer needs. Call (863) 251-5864 to schedule the conversation.
