Roofs built for South Florida, from the deck up.

Perkins Roofing Corp. is a Florida certified roofing contractor (license CCC1331944) founded in 1980, with offices in Miami and Jupiter. It replaces and repairs tile, metal, shingle and flat roofs and inspects roofs for homes, condominiums and commercial buildings in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie and Monroe counties.

It depends on the metal and the water. Gulf Coast Supply’s published sample warranties set standard painted steel back 1,500 feet from breaking surf, 800 feet from a large bay, inlet or canal and 400 feet from a marsh or tributary, and exclude it where sea spray reaches the roof. Its coastal-rated steel is limited to 300 feet from breaking surf, and its painted aluminum has no published setback. Englert offers no Galvalume steel warranty within half a mile of salt or brackish water. The Perkins salt / brackish water check measures the distance for your address. Read the metal roof guide

There is no single statewide age limit. Florida insurers cannot refuse or non-renew a homeowners policy solely over roof age when the roof is under 15. At 15 or older, the insurer must let you have the roof inspected by an authorized inspector, at your expense, before it requires replacement, and age alone cannot be the reason if the inspector finds five or more years of useful life. Other underwriting rules still apply. Read the roof age and insurance guide

No more than 25% of a roof or roof section may be repaired, replaced or recovered in 12 months unless the whole roof or section is brought to current code. Since 2022, a roof built, repaired or replaced under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later is exempt: only the repaired part must meet current code. Read the 25% roof rule guide

A 4-point inspection reports the roof, electrical, plumbing and heating/cooling so an insurer can decide whether to write an older home. A wind mitigation inspection records wind-resistant features on Florida form OIR-B1-1802 for possible premium discounts. A roof certification documents the roof’s condition and remaining useful life.
