Not sure if you want to repair or replace your roof?
For a full roof replacement, the most common options are asphalt shingle replacement, metal roof installation, and flat or low-slope roof replacement. Slate, tile, and wood are less common, but the contractors listed below may offer them. Many homeowners bundle roof replacement and gutter replacement.
Roof repairs are a good option for isolated problems on a roof that still has enough remaining life that replacement isn't justified. Roof inspections are a separate service that can make sense when you're buying a home, after a major storm, or when you're getting conflicting opinions from contractors about whether you need a repair or replacement.

Miami climate: tropical, hurricane zone, year-round humidity.
This region combines high humidity with real hurricane and hail exposure. Impact-resistant shingles (Class 4 or wind-rated 130+ mph) are worth the premium, and many insurers across the Gulf Coast and Florida offer real discounts for them.
Roof Replacement in Miami usually runs $10,500–$22,000 for a standard project on an average home. That is lower than the average national rate, because labor costs are lower in Miami. The table below compares national averages with typical Miami pricing.

Installed cost in Miami runs roughly 4% below the national average for this trade. Here's how we got to that number.
Project costs include three main components: labor, materials, and overhead. Material ships at national prices no matter where you live, and overhead is fairly consistent as well. So the main pricing difference between metro areas is labor costs. This is why a quote from a high-wage metro is rarely as far above the national average as people expect.
To get Miami labor costs, we compared the average hourly wage in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL area to the national average hourly wage for this trade. (source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025)
We found that the local trade wages sit about 17% below the national figure. Labor costs typically make up about 22% of a roof replacement project cost, so the weighted difference between Miami and national averages is −4%. See methodology and sources.
It depends on the scope of your project, so you should talk to the permitting authority to find out what your project needs. In general, Miami permitting is complex compared to other metros we cover.
Permitting in this area goes through Miami-Dade County.
You should ask each contractor if they pull the permits for you and if the fee for pulling permits is included in their quote. Also, tell them you need to see the written, approved permit before work starts.
Florida requires a state license for roof replacement work. (source, verified as of 2026-08-12) What that means and how to verify a contractor in Florida →
One roof replacement company in our network has confirmed coverage in Miami. It is listed below with its real customer rating: a single partner, not a shortlist. See our Editorial Standards.
Power Home Remodeling is one of the largest multi-trade exterior remodelers in the country, covering windows, roofing, siding, doors, attic insulation and solar. Its Homeowner Bill of Rights includes a commitment it calls blind pricing: a promise that your price will never vary by your age, income, race or the value of your home. Reviewers consistently name their installation crew and describe fast, tidy work: floors and furniture protected, old materials hauled away, and whole window or siding jobs finished in a day or two. Many are repeat customers, returning for a second or third project years after the first. Installation is carried out by independent contractors partnered with Power, and if a glass seal fails years down the line (or the specific product line is no longer made) ask now what the warranty covers and how a claim gets scheduled.
