Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Ojus
Roof replacement in Ojus typically runs $8,000-$20,000, while targeted roof repairs land between $400 and $1,800 depending on what the storm or the years have done. Those are the ranges we quote most often for homes here, and we can usually put a firm number in front of you after one visit. Ojus sits in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, which means every roofing permit runs through the county’s Building Department and every material has to carry a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA) under the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code. That’s not a technicality, it’s the strictest hurricane construction standard in the country, and it changes which products actually belong on your roof.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Ojus’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998 and he still answers his own phone. That matters more in Ojus than people realize, because roofing work here involves navigating Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code, county inspections, and NOA-approved material lists, and the person quoting your job should know all three before they climb a ladder. We’re not a national outfit that sends a sales rep with a tablet and a script. Tom’s sons run the crews, and everyone who shows up at an Ojus home carries the Barrett & Sons name on the truck and on their uniform.
Homeowners in Ojus who’ve been through a roof job before tell us the same thing: the surprise wasn’t the weather, it was the change order they never saw coming. Our Roofing team puts every allowance and every scope change in writing before a single nail moves. The 90-Day Done Right Promise gets written on the contract, not mentioned in passing, and if something isn’t right afterward, one call brings Tom back. We also publish Tom’s name, address, and license number. You can look it up before you sign anything.
Our Roofing Services in Ojus
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Ojus usually means one of three things: a small leak around a plumbing vent, lifted shingles after an afternoon thunderstorm, or a flat-roof membrane that’s finally given out after six decades of South Florida sun. Most repairs we quote run $400-$1,800, and we walk you through exactly what’s damaged before any work begins. The 1960s built-up tar roofs we see throughout the 33160 ZIP code fail differently than the tile roofs on newer construction, and the fix isn’t the same either.

Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Ojus typically runs $8,000-$20,000, and the spread depends mostly on roof size, pitch, and whether the existing deck needs repairs once we strip the old material. In this part of unincorporated Miami-Dade, replacement almost always triggers the requirement for a secondary water barrier, which is exactly what older flat-roof CBS homes were built without. That’s not an upsell. It’s Miami-Dade code, and the inspector works for you, not for us.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing in Ojus is a long-game decision, and it starts around $15,000 and can reach $40,000 for a standing seam system on a larger home. We install standing seam metal roofs because they hold up better than almost anything else under hurricane wind loads, and because most Ojus homeowners we talk to are tired of replacing asphalt every 12 to 15 years. The county’s HVHZ requirements mean every metal panel and fastener we use has to be NOA-approved, and we handle that paperwork for you.

Tile Roofing
Barrel tile roofing is common in Ojus, but it’s also the system most likely to be hiding cracked tiles and corroded fasteners right now. Tile roof repair here runs $600-$2,500 depending on how many tiles need replacing and whether the underlayment underneath has started to fail. Our Roofing crew walks every tile roof at least twice before quoting, because what looks fine from the street often isn’t fine at the ridge or around the valley flashing.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus
We install GAF and CertainTeed roofing products, and we stock the replacement parts and flashing details Ojus homes need most, which means less waiting for a backordered clip or ridge cap. You can look up either brand, read the specs, and see exactly what’s going on your roof before you pay for it. No off-brand mystery material off the back of a van. We also work with Cambridge Pavers and Quikrete on the rare job where a roof project connects to a patio or driveway edge, so you’re not juggling two contractors for one property.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Ojus Homes
This is what 29 years of roofs in this specific area has taught us:
- Failed flat-roof membranes on 1960s CBS homes. The original built-up tar roofs throughout Ojus lack the secondary water barrier that Miami-Dade now requires, and once the membrane goes, water finds the concrete deck fast. We replace these more than any other single roof type in the area.
- Missing or rusted hurricane straps. Most homes built before the post-Andrew code overhaul don’t have the roof-to-wall connections current HVHZ standards demand, and when we’re already up there for a repair or replacement, fixing that connection is often mandatory.
- Corroded tile fasteners from constant humidity. South Florida’s moisture eats at the nails and clips on tile roofs faster than in Central or North Florida, and Ojus’s inland position doesn’t give you the salt-free advantage people assume. Loose tiles start as a rattle and end as a leak.
- Clogged gutters and drain boxes after summer storms. Ojus gets intense, short-duration thunderstorms that dump an inch of rain in twenty minutes, and flat or low-slope roofs need every drain clear to keep water from ponding and breaking down the membrane.

FAQs - Roofing in Ojus
We schedule most roof repairs in Ojus within a few days of your call, and for active leaks we do everything we can to move faster. Call (877) 610-1318 and tell us what’s happening, and we’ll give you a straight answer about timing.
Yes, we work throughout the entire 33160 ZIP code and the surrounding unincorporated Ojus area. We’re familiar with the flat-roof CBS homes, the garden-style apartment complexes, and the newer construction, and we’ve pulled permits through Miami-Dade County for all of them.
We respond to storm damage calls in Ojus quickly, and we always start with a written assessment of what the storm actually did. If you have water coming in, call (877) 610-1318 right away. For emergency repairs, the focus is stopping the leak, documenting the damage for insurance, and scheduling the real fix.
The answer is mostly Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code and the NOA-approved material requirement attached to it. Roof replacement in Ojus runs $8,000-$20,000, but the same roof just across the line in an incorporated city can be cheaper because the permitting and material standards are different. You’re paying for a roof that survives what Ojus actually gets.
We back every completed job with our written 90-Day Done Right Promise, and the materials we install carry their own manufacturer warranties from GAF and CertainTeed. If anything isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll put everything in writing before you commit.
