AfterFast, Reliable Roofing Across Miramar
If you need Roofing work in Miramar, the first thing to know is that most homes in the 33023 ZIP were built before Florida’s 1994 building code overhaul, which means a re-roof here is rarely just a shingle swap. Our crews work these pre-Andrew CBS block homes all year and know exactly what Broward County inspectors will look for when we pull the permit. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk your roof with you, explain in plain English what has to happen, and put every number in writing before a single nail moves.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Miramar’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett founded Barrett & Sons Construction in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work Miramar today. We’re not a franchise dispatching strangers. When we quote a roof in Miramar, the person who signs the contract is the same person you’ll see at the final inspection. Every job gets a written scope, written allowances, and a written change order before anything changes, so the price we agree on is the price you pay unless you approve something different on paper first.
Our Miramar customers keep calling us back because we answer the phone with a live person, 24 hours a day. That matters when a June squall peels flashing off your low-slope roof at 8 p.m. and you need someone who knows what Miramar homes look like inside the attic. Tom publishes his name, address, and license number on every estimate. Look it up before you sign with anyone. Then compare what you find.
Every roof we complete in Miramar carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something’s not right, one call brings Tom back. That promise is on the contract, not buried in fine print. We’ve been doing this for over 29 years, and we still live twenty minutes from the neighborhoods we serve. If something’s wrong, we want to know about it.
Our Roofing Services in Miramar
Roof Replacement & Installation
Replacing a roof in eastern Miramar means dealing with what’s hiding under the old decking. On 1950s and 1960s CBS ranch homes, we regularly find no hurricane clips connecting trusses to the block walls. Broward permit review won’t let us overlay without addressing that, so a “simple” re-roof becomes a structural retrofit: full tie-downs, strapping, and a new HVHZ-rated roof system. We handle the entire scope, not just the shingles, and the permit inspector signs off because the work was done right, not because corners got covered up.
Emergency & Storm Damage
Miramar sits in the Atlantic hurricane corridor, and the June-through-November season is not the time to gamble on an open roof. When storms tear up older flat and low-slope roofs in 33023, we respond fast with a proper dry-in plan: weather-tight underlayment, tarping where needed, and a written scope for the permanent repair. We never leave a Miramar home open to the sky overnight. Call (877) 610-1318 and a live person answers, rain or shine.
Standing Seam Metal Roof
More Miramar homeowners are choosing standing seam metal for the same reason we recommend it: it’s engineered for the wind loads Broward County actually enforces. On a ranch home off Miramar Parkway in 33023, our crew opened the flat roof for what started as a basic re-roof and found zero hurricane clips connecting trusses to CBS walls. We installed the full tie-down upgrade, replaced the rotted fascia, and put on a standing seam metal roof rated for HVHZ wind loads. Then we walked the homeowner through the final inspection sign-off for their insurance file. That’s the kind of roof that survives the next storm.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile and flat tile roofs are common across Miramar, especially on the newer construction west of Douglas Road. Tile looks great, but its real vulnerability is at the fasteners and underlayment, not the tile itself. After years of South Florida sun and hurricane cycles, the old underlayment fails and leaks start. We repair and replace tile roofs in Miramar using underlayment systems rated for the high-velocity zone, including tile-specific reattachment details that meet current Broward code.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miramar
We stock and install roofing materials from manufacturers that publish their wind ratings in black and white: GAF and CertainTeed for shingle and underlayment systems, plus PGT and CGI for impact-rated roof openings and accessories. If your roof opening needs a new impact-rated skylight or roof hatch to match the rest of the HVHZ assembly, we order from the same supplier network our Miramar customers already have on their window and door packages. You can look these brands up yourself. That’s the point.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Miramar Homes
- Missing hurricane ties and straps. Pre-Andrew CBS homes in 33023 were built with far lower wind-resistance standards. Opening the roof sheathing often reveals no roof-to-wall attachment at all, and Broward County requires us to fix that before we close the roof.
- Ponding on low-slope and flat roofs. Miramar’s high water table, often within 2 to 4 feet of grade, makes roof drainage harder to manage. Older drains and scuppers get overwhelmed, and standing water finds its way into the terrazzo-floored interiors these homes are known for.
- Underlayment failure on older tile roofs. The tile itself can look fine while the underlayment underneath has baked and cracked. Leaks show up where ceilings meet exterior walls, and by then the decking needs repair too.
- Open-roof scheduling during hurricane season. Contractors without a dry-in plan leave sheathing exposed when an afternoon storm rolls in off the Atlantic. Water gets into the roof cavity and ruins insulation, drywall, and those original terrazzo floors.

FAQs - Roofing in Miramar
Yes. Most 1950s and 1960s CBS homes in Miramar’s 33023 ZIP were built before Florida’s 1994 HVHZ code overhaul, and Broward permit review requires roof-to-wall tie-downs whenever the roof assembly is opened. We include the full retrofit in our written scope before we start. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll inspect your attic to see what’s actually up there.
Miramar sits on a limestone shelf with groundwater often within 2 to 4 feet of grade, which means the ground can’t absorb storm runoff the way it would in drier counties. Roof drainage becomes critical, and older low-slope roofs with undersized drains or clogged scuppers will pond and eventually leak. We size new drainage and gutters specifically for Miramar’s conditions.
All of Miramar falls within the Florida High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-load standard in the continental United States. Your new roof assembly, including decking, underlayment, fasteners, and roof covering, must meet HVHZ requirements, and the permit inspector signs only after it verifies. A cheap quote that ignores this leaves your home under-code and exposed.
In most cases, yes, the tile can be saved and re-laid if it’s in good condition, but the underlayment and attachment system underneath it were not designed for current HVHZ wind uplift and will need replacing. We walk Miramar homeowners through what stays and what has to be upgraded on paper, before any work begins.
Many Florida insurers will apply a wind mitigation credit when you can document that your roof now meets current HVHZ tie-down and opening-protection standards. We provide the completed inspection sign-off and documentation for your insurance file. Call (877) 610-1318 and ask us about what your carrier requires.
