HVHZ, NOA, the 25% rule

Codes and approvals

  • The 25% rule If your roof was built to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, only the damaged part has to be replaced to current code, even when it's 25% or more of the roof (§553.844(5)). Older roofs can still need the whole section replaced. Source
  • The 2007-code exception If the roof was built or replaced to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, only the portion being worked on has to meet the current code, and local governments can't amend that exception (§553.844(5)). Source
  • HVHZ roofing Miami-Dade and Broward follow FBC §§1512–1525. Every roofing component needs a valid, current product approval, and the job needs an HVHZ Uniform Roofing Permit Application signed by a licensed contractor. Source
  • Miami-Dade NOA In Miami-Dade, the product approval is a Notice of Acceptance (NOA). You can look up any NOA yourself in the county's product control search. Source
  • Tile underlayment Every Miami-Dade tile roof permit must show the underlayment's uplift value: at least 45 psf, except the prescriptive 30/90 hot-mop system. Source
  • Code change on 12/31/2026 The 9th Edition (2026) Florida Building Code takes effect on 12/31/2026, with HVHZ changes that affect some roofing underlayment NOAs and hip and ridge shingles. Source

Check any NOA yourself on Miami-Dade's product control search.

Wind mitigation

Insurance, roof age and the My Safe Florida Home grant

Florida law requires home insurers to offer discounts for proven wind-mitigation features (§627.0629). A licensed inspector records them on form OIR-B1-1802, Rev. 04/26, which has been required since April 1, 2026. Source

Six of the form's questions are about the roof: Roof Slope (Question 3), Roof Covering (Question 4), Roof Deck Attachment (Question 5), Roof to Wall Attachment (Question 6), Roof Geometry (Question 7) and Sealed Roof Deck/Secondary Water Resistance (Question 8). Opening protection is Question 9. Source

An insurer can't refuse to issue or renew a homeowner's policy solely because of the roof's age if the roof is less than 15 years old. For a roof 15 years or older, you can have an authorized inspector check it first; if it shows at least 5 years of useful life left, the insurer can't refuse on roof age alone (§627.7011(5)). Source

My Safe Florida Home lists roof improvements as grant-eligible upgrades: strengthening roof-to-deck attachment, reinforcing roof-to-wall connections, and installing secondary water resistance. Grants are up to $10,000, after the program's free wind-mitigation visit. Source

Your insurer and your policy decide the final credit. Rule 69O-170.0155 adopts the current form (flrules.org).

Layer by layer

Anatomy of a roof

What are the layers of a roof?

A roof is built in layers: a plywood or OSB deck nailed to the trusses, an underlayment over the deck, and the shingle, tile or metal covering on top. Along the edge, the drip edge, fascia and soffit finish the roof and carry water away.

Cutaway illustration of a South Florida shingle roof showing shingles, starter strip, underlayment, roof deck, drip edge, fascia and soffit
  1. Shingles The layer you see. Asphalt shingles are nailed to the deck in overlapping rows that shed water down the roof.
  2. Starter strip and hip & ridge caps The starter strip seals the first row of shingles at the roof edge. Hip and ridge caps cover the peaks where two slopes meet.
  3. Underlayment A synthetic or self-adhered sheet under the shingles. It's the second line of defense if wind-driven rain gets past the top layer.
  4. Roof deck Plywood or OSB sheets nailed to the roof trusses. Every other layer is fastened to the deck.
  5. Drip edge A metal edge along the bottom and sides of the roof that carries water off the edge and away from the fascia.
  6. Fascia The board along the roof edge. The drip edge and gutters attach to it.
  7. Soffit and ventilation The panel under the roof overhang. Vented soffit lets air into the attic.

The roof images are illustrations, not photos of a real job. The exact system on your roof depends on its product approvals and the permit.

Installed price

What a new roof costs in South Florida

From $10,000**$10,000 is our minimum job price. Per-square prices are in the table below. Your price depends on the roof's size, shape and system, and every home gets its own written quote.

Roofers price by the square. One square is 100 square feet of roof surface, so a roof with 2,000 square feet of surface is 20 squares. Pitch, hips and valleys add surface beyond the home's floor area. These six things move the price most:

Installed price per square (one square is 100 square feet of roof):

  • Shingle $700 per square installed
  • Metal $1,125 per square installed
  • Concrete tile $1,075 per square installed
  • Clay tile $1,175 per square installed
  • Flat roof (non-insulated) $850*non-insulated per square installed
  • Flat roof, insulated system $1,300 per square installed
  1. Roof type Tile, metal, flat or shingle, and the product line within each.
  2. Roof size and shape Square footage, pitch, hips, valleys and how many sections the roof has.
  3. County and wind zone Miami-Dade and Broward are in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, with its own roofing rules and permit form.
  4. Tear-off and deck How many layers come off, and what the deck needs once it's open.
  5. Underlayment In Miami-Dade, tile needs an underlayment rated for uplift (at least 45 psf, or the 30/90 hot-mop system).
  6. HOA requirements Some associations set the roof type, profile or color.

Worked example: a roof with about 2,000–2,200 sq ft of surface is 20–22 squares. Estimated installed totals with tear-off:

Roof typePrice per square20–22 squares, estimated total
Architectural shingle$700about $14,000–$15,400
Concrete tile$1,075about $21,500–$23,650
Standing-seam metal$1,125about $22,500–$24,750
Clay tile$1,175about $23,500–$25,850

Financing is subject to credit approval, as low as 6.99% APR for qualified borrowers over 10 years, $0 down: about $116.06 a month for every $10,000 financed (120 months).

  8. Installation

    We install the new tile, shingle, metal or flat roof.

  • Condo: the roof is usually a common element, and the association is responsible for the common elements under the declaration (§718.113(1)). Ask your board before you plan a roof. Source
  • Notice of commencement: when the direct contract is more than $5,000, a copy of the recorded notice of commencement must be filed with the building department before the first site visit, or later approvals stop (§713.135(1)(e)). Source

Can my insurer drop me because of my roof's age?

Not solely for roof age if the roof is less than 15 years old. If it's 15 or older, you can have an authorized inspector check it; if it shows at least 5 years of useful life left, the insurer can't refuse on age alone (§627.7011(5)).

Do I need a notice of commencement for a roof?

If the direct contract is more than $5,000, yes. A copy of the recorded notice must be filed with the building department before the first site visit (§713.135(1)(e)).

How long does a roof replacement take?

On the roof, shingle is often one to three days, and tile and metal are often three to five. Flat roof timelines depend on the roof size and membrane system. The permit comes first and usually takes one to four weeks.

4.8 stars from 258 South Florida homeowners.

I had Republic Impact Windows; Doors & Roofing do my windows. Matt's crew is the best, Maria and everyone I spoke with on the phone was knowledgeable & helpful. They did a wonderful job and left everything perfect and clean! They just need to come back and due the touch up paint. I would definitely recommend them, and I have done just that. A neighbor saw what a great job was done, and I passed along Ryans card & she is also getting windows from Republic Windows, Doors, And Roofing.

Outstanding job! The installation was completed flawlessly. The team was friendly, punctual, efficient. Kept the are clean throughout the installation. We are very satisfied with the results and highly recommend their service.

The team at Republic Doors and Windows was a good team to work with. They were responsive and timely in their communication. Install action was smooth and they were clean and tidy hauling away all the construction debris.

I had an outstanding experience with Republic Windows and Doors. They installed seven impact windows for me, and every step was top-notch. Ryan, the salesman, was extremely professional during his initial visit—he explained everything clearly, from employee insurance to the high-end tools they use, like premium screws and caulking. Then, Matt and Carlos took over the installation, and they were exceptional—they demonstrated an extraordinary level of dedication, precision, and stamina, ensuring every detail was perfect. Their work ethic was truly outstanding, and they took pride in every step of the process. Plus, the pricing was surprisingly affordable for the quality they delivered. I highly recommend them for any window or door project!

From start to finish, the team of Republic Windows, Doors, & Roofing truly exceeded ALL of our expectations! We had 4 companies bid to replace our condo's sliding doors and windows. Their pricing was on the lower end of competitive BUT not the lowest price. From the onset, the interaction we had with their sales manager, Ryan Didato, was terrific. He was on-time, patient, took his time to walk/talk us through everything, explained the process from start-to-finish, and was available to answer calls/questions I had following our initial interaction. He also didn't "hard sell" us AT ALL which I 100%++++ appreciate. He's the definition of a professional and has the patience of a Saint. After signing our contract, their office team including Debbie, Yiseth, and company took care of everything including submission of plans to HOA and the City of Pompano Beach. They continued to keep us informed regarding ordering windows, etc., as our windows and doors are not standard = all custom. Thank you! Next up: installation. Matheus was the lead on our installation working in tandem with Carlos. WOW! Responsible, respectful, and do they know what they are doing!!! They also covered EVERYTHING before starting to help minimize concrete, drywall, and wood dust. Yes...you will still have some but did they ever help alleviate a lot of clean-up work. They also cleaned up when they finished each day. They didn't take break-after-break...they remained focused and steady = they didn't rush. They did it RIGHT! Plus Matheus has an INCREDIBLE play list on his boom-box that we all enjoyed!! To close, I have remodeled 6 different homes/condos here in the greater Fort Lauderdale area including putting in impact windows and doors. This was BY FAR the best experience from start-to-finish I have ever had. And the sliding doors which are really large open and close the smoothest I've ever had! On behalf of my 85 year old father, my 55 year old special needs sister, our fur-baby Dolly...THANK YOU ALL for making this such a positive experience the entire way through. We will 100% recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, reputable, fair priced company for high quality impact windows and doors! Christopher Tompkins
