Miami Shores roofing company · Miami-Dade County A 1920s plan with its own roof rules
Miami Shores is a village of mostly 1950s single-family homes with its own rules on what a pitched roof may be: tile with through-body color, white concrete tile, slate, or standing-seam metal with a Miami-Dade NOA in a neutral color. Perkins Roofing repairs and replaces roofs here to those rules and to HVHZ requirements, from the Miami office.

The building stock
The oldest homes we roof regularly
Miami Shores was laid out from 1924 as “America’s Mediterranean” and incorporated in 1932. Census figures put the median year built at 1954, with 90 percent of homes built before 1980 and 87 percent single-family detached. The village fronts Biscayne Bay, so eastern streets see bay salt air.
Building age does not establish roof age. Review permit history and inspect the deck, covering and roof-to-wall connections before choosing the work. Homes with a just value of $300,000 or more that were not built to the Florida or South Florida Building Code can need a roof-to-wall hurricane mitigation affidavit.
The village roof code
What a pitched roof may be
Section 523.1(6) of the Miami Shores zoning code limits pitched roofs to clay or cement tile with through-body color, white concrete tile, thick-butt variegated slate, or factory-finished standing-seam metal with a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance in a single, solid, non-reflective neutral color, with a sample and color chart submitted with the permit. The village roof permit checklist asks for the tile’s through-color.
