We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been putting roofs on Miami-Dade homes since 1998. Kendall is a different animal from anywhere north of the county line, and you need a roofer who knows the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements cold before the first shingle comes off.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Kendall’s Preferred Roofing Company
Kendall homeowners call us because we live and work in this community. When a barrel tile roof on a 1970s tract home off Kendall Drive fails, we know what the inspector will look for before we even pull the permit. That’s not something you learn from a franchise playbook. It’s what you learn by doing roofing in Kendall for nearly three decades and having your name attached to every job.
Our reputation in the 33156 ZIP is built on the 90-Day Done Right Promise, and that’s a written guarantee on every contract. If something’s not right, one call brings Tom Barrett back. We also answer the phone with a live person 24/7, and every crew member who shows up at your door is background-checked and uniformed. You won’t get a rotating cast of subcontractors. You’ll get Tom’s sons and their teams.
We know this matters because we’ve met too many Kendall homeowners who got burned by a national outfit that quoted one price on the phone and handed over a different bill at the door. That doesn’t happen with us. Every scope, every allowance, every price change lands on paper as a written change order before any work moves. If it’s not in writing, it doesn’t exist.
Our Roofing Services in Kendall
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile roofs define Kendall’s look, especially through the Snapper Creek area of 33156. We work on original 1970s and 1980s tile roofs, post-Andrew rebuilds, and newer estate-style homes alike. Every tile we install carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance number, because that’s the law here. Tile roof repair in Kendall runs $600 to $2,500 for typical jobs like cracked barrel tiles, failed mortar, or displaced caps. Full tile replacements fall under the broader roof replacement range.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A roof replacement in Kendall is not a simple swap. Pre-Andrew homes often need roof-to-wall connection upgrades to meet current HVHZ code, and skipping that step is how you end up with a new roof that’s weaker than the law requires. We address the full assembly, from deck inspection to stainless straps to NOA-approved underlayment. Roof replacement in Kendall typically runs $8,000 to $20,000 depending on size, pitch, and the condition of the existing deck.
Emergency & Storm Damage
When a storm tears through Kendall, the calls start immediately. We respond fast to tarp damaged sections and stop water intrusion before it spreads into ceilings and walls. Emergency roof repair in Kendall falls within the $400 to $1,800 repair range, but storm damage from a serious event can push higher depending on what the wind did. Don’t wait on a small leak after a storm. Water moves fast through South Florida ceilings.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roofs are gaining ground in Kendall, and for good reason. They handle hurricane winds better than almost anything, and they last. Metal roof installation in Kendall runs $15,000 to $40,000. We install GAF metal systems and verify every panel, clip, and underlayment against Miami-Dade’s NOA database before the permit goes in.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall
We install GAF roofing systems across Kendall, from shingle lines to their metal roofing products. That’s a name you can look up, not a mystery brand off a van. Because we stock common GAF components locally, turnaround on repairs and replacements in the 33156 ZIP is faster than waiting on a supply house in another county. We also work extensively with tile manufacturers whose products carry current Miami-Dade NOA approval, which matters more in Kendall than any brand loyalty.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Kendall Homes
- Pre-Andrew toe-nailed rafter connections. Homes built before 1992 in Kendall often have roof framing held together with nails instead of hurricane-rated straps. A new roof on top of those connections is a code violation waiting for an inspector to catch it.
- NOA mismatches on underlayment. A roofer uses a Florida Product Approval underlayment north of the county line, then gets a Kendall job failed because Miami-Dade requires NOA numbers for every roofing product. We see this constantly, and it’s always a headache for the homeowner who trusted the wrong contractor.
- Hidden sheathing rot under old tile. Kendall’s summer storms and high humidity mean water finds its way under cracked barrel tiles and sits. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the deck underneath is often rotting quietly.
- HOA tile profile conflicts. Some Kendall HOAs require a specific barrel tile profile or color that’s hard to match with a current NOA. Skipping HOA approval to get around it leads to stop-work orders, and we’ve seen it happen.

FAQs - Roofing in Kendall
Does Kendall require a permit for a simple shingle replacement, or can we just staple a new layer over the old?
Kendall requires a permit for any roof replacement, including a simple shingle re-cover, and Miami-Dade County does not allow nailing a second layer over an existing shingle roof in most cases. Every roofing permit in Kendall must cite Miami-Dade NOA numbers for each product, and skipping the permit leads to a failed inspection and fines. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate and we’ll handle the permit paperwork for you.
Our Kendall HOA says only a specific barrel tile profile is allowed. Can you still meet HVHZ uplift requirements with that tile?
Yes, most HOA-required barrel tile profiles have at least one manufacturer whose product carries a current Miami-Dade NOA for uplift, and we verify that number before the permit is filed. The catch is that some HOA colorways or profiles are discontinued, which means going back to the HOA board with a compliant alternative. We help Kendall homeowners navigate that conversation and get the right NOA-approved tile on the roof without a stop-work order. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll check your tile profile against the NOA database before you waste a month waiting on HOA approval.
How do I know if my pre-Andrew Kendall home needs extra roof-to-wall connection upgrades before a new roof?
Any Kendall home built before 1992 in the 33156 ZIP likely has toe-nailed rafter connections instead of hurricane straps, and a roof replacement on those homes triggers the requirement to upgrade to current HVHZ code. The only way to know for sure is to open the soffit or attic and look at the connection points, which we do during every estimate on pre-Andrew homes. We’ll show you what’s there and quote the connection upgrade in writing before work starts. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free inspection.
What is the difference between a Miami-Dade NOA and a Florida Product Approval for roofing underlayment in Kendall?
A Florida Product Approval is accepted everywhere in the state except Miami-Dade County, where every roofing product must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance number that exceeds standard Florida Building Code requirements. In Kendall, an underlayment approved under the Florida system is legally non-compliant, and a Miami-Dade inspector will fail the job if the NOA numbers are not on file. We use only NOA-approved underlayment and verify every number before the permit is pulled. Call (877) 610-1318 if you want us to check what’s currently on your roof.
Can I schedule a full roof replacement in October if the hurricane season has been quiet so far?
You can schedule a roof replacement in Kendall in October, but hurricane season runs through November 30, and a quiet season doesn’t mean a quiet month. Any tear-off must include a temporary dry-in that meets HVHZ uplift standards, and we plan every fall replacement around the storm window and the inspector’s schedule. The better window for a full replacement in Kendall is December through May, after the season closes. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you an honest schedule based on the actual forecast and your roof’s condition.
Contact Us for Roofing in Kendall
On a 1982-era tract home in the Snapper Creek area of 33156, we replaced a failing original barrel tile roof that had been patched after Hurricane Andrew. Our crew removed the old tile down to the deck, found sheathing rot from decades of hidden leak paths, and rebuilt the roof-to-wall connections with new stainless straps. Before we could close the rough-in, the Miami-Dade inspector verified our NOA numbers for the new underlayment, tile, and adhesive, and we passed inspection sign-off the same day because every product was pre-approved. That’s the Barrett & Sons way in Kendall, and it’s how we’ve worked since 1998.
If your Kendall roof needs repair, replacement, or an honest second opinion on a written estimate, call (877) 610-1318. We answer the phone with a live person, 24/7. Free estimates, written change orders, permits pulled on every eligible job, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise on every contract.
