AfterFast, Reliable Roofing Across Miramar
Roof replacement in Miramar typically runs $8,000 to $20,000 depending on the condition of what’s underneath, and roof repair jobs here usually land between $400 and $1,800. If you own one of the 1950s or 1960s CBS ranch homes in the 33023 corridor east of University Drive, your quote will almost certainly include structural work most homeowners never see coming: hurricane clips or straps that the original builder never installed. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk it with you before you sign anything.
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. We are Roofing contractors who write every dollar of scope on paper before the first tile comes off. That matters in Miramar, because the difference between a cheap re-roof quote and an honest one here is usually hiding in the attic.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Miramar’s Preferred Roofing Company
We’re not a franchise. We don’t send strangers. The crew that shows up at your Miramar home is led by Tom’s sons, and Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number so you can verify every word of that before you let anyone climb your ladder. Calls are answered by a live person. Not a voicemail box, not an out-of-state call center.
Miramar homeowners call us after they’ve been burned, usually by a national outfit that quoted one price over the phone and handed them another at the door. Nearly every job we take over in 33023 starts with the same sentence: “They never told us the county would require hurricane straps.” We tell you. In writing. Before work starts.
Every completed job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise, printed on the contract. If something isn’t right, Tom comes back. One call. And every price change during a project arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves. No surprise invoices at the end. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date.
Our Roofing Services in Miramar
Roof Repair
Leak chasing is the most common call we get from Miramar homeowners in the older 33023 blocks along Miramar Parkway and Douglas Road. Flat and low-slope ranchers from the 1950s and 1960s hide water intrusion in parapet walls, scuppers, and around original roof penetrations. We trace the source, photograph it, and write the repair scope with a fixed price before we cut anything.
Roof Replacement & Installation
This is where Miramar’s pre-1994 housing stock makes things serious. A re-roof on a CBS ranch built before Hurricane Andrew isn’t a shingle swap. Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone review typically requires engineered roof-to-wall hurricane clips or straps, and often a full decking upgrade, before new underlayment and covering can pass inspection. That’s not an upsell. That’s the code. We pull the permit, order the structural plans, and install Simpson tie-downs to the schedule the county approves.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roofs are growing in Miramar, especially on remodeled ranches where homeowners want a roof that will outlast them. Metal carries the highest wind ratings available, which matters in a city where the HVHZ wind-load requirements are the strictest in the continental United States. We install standing seam and 5V crimp profiles, always with the underlayment and tie-down upgrades the permit requires.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile and flat concrete tile are common on newer western Miramar homes built after Florida’s 1994 code overhaul. Those newer homes usually have the structural bones for tile from day one. But when we see tile going onto an older 33023 ranch, we check the load path first. Tile is heavy, and the trusses and walls have to be engineered for it. Sometimes they aren’t. We’ll tell you before you pay for tile. Tile roof repair in Miramar runs $600 to $2,500 depending on how many tiles are broken and whether the underlayment beneath them has failed.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miramar
We install and service materials you can look up. On Miramar roofs, that means GAF and CertainTeed shingles and underlayment on pitched homes, and fully adhered TPO and PVC membranes on the flat-roof CBS ranches. For impact-rated windows and doors tied into roofing work, we carry PGT, Simonton, and CGI product lines. The brand name goes on your contract. Not a mystery product off a van. If you need a warranty claim two years from now, the manufacturer’s name on the paperwork is what makes it enforceable.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Miramar Homes
- Missing hurricane straps in pre-Andrew CBS homes. In the older blocks of 33023, it’s common to open a roof and find zero clips or straps connecting the trusses to the bond beam. That was normal before 1994. Broward County now requires a full tie-down retrofit before a re-roof passes inspection.
- Moisture-swollen decking on flat and low-slope roofs. Decades of South Florida humidity and the occasional hurricane soak the original 3/8-inch plywood on 1950s and 1960s ranchers. Reusing that decking under new membrane is a shortcut we won’t take. It’s also a code failure.
- Parapet wall leaks around the roof perimeter. Flat-roof ranches off Miramar Parkway leak at the parapet long before they leak in the field. The peel-and-stick underlayment detail at those walls is where cheap installers skip steps. We detail every parapet to Broward HVHZ standard.
- Unpermitted re-roofs that kill insurance discounts. A homeowner replaces shingles but never updates the roof-to-wall connections or obtains the HVHZ inspection sign-off. Their wind mitigation report still says “no clips/straps,” and they lose the premium discount they paid for. We document everything the insurer needs.

FAQs - Roofing in Miramar
Yes, in most cases. If your home was built before 1994 and the original roof-to-wall connection has no engineered clips or straps, Broward County’s HVHZ permit review will require the tie-down retrofit before the re-roof passes inspection. This isn’t optional, and it isn’t something a legitimate contractor can skip. Any company that tells you otherwise hasn’t pulled a permit in Miramar lately. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what your specific roof needs.
You don’t, until someone checks the existing tie-downs, truss spacing, and wall connections. Homes built before Florida’s 1994 code overhaul were engineered to far lower wind standards. Tile adds significant dead load, and metal requires specific uplift resistance at the perimeter. The answer usually comes from a structural inspection during the estimating phase, not after the roof is opened. We include that evaluation in our free estimate.
It can, and for pre-Andrew homes it often does. The key document is the wind mitigation report. When your roof replacement includes the tie-down retrofit and the final inspection verifies it, the report reflects the upgrade. Many Miramar homeowners in 33023 see a measurable premium reduction after we complete a compliant re-roof. We give you the documentation your insurer needs. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll explain what applies to your home.
Because they’re either wrong or they don’t want to spend the money on materials. Miramar sits in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. The peel-and-stick underlayment detail at parapet walls is required by code, not a preference. On flat and low-slope 1950s and 1960s ranchers, skipping that detail is how you get a leak after the first tropical storm. The price difference between a compliant job and a shortcut job is real, and it’s on paper. We show you the line item.
In writing, before the work moves. If our crew opens a parapet on a 1959 ranch off Miramar Parkway and finds no hurricane straps, we document it, price the retrofit, and issue a written change order. You approve it before we install a single clip. Nothing goes on your final invoice that didn’t first arrive on paper with a number next to it. That’s the policy, on every job, since 1998.
