The building stock
Two generations of housing
West Miami covers 0.71 square miles of land. Census figures put the median year built at 1967, but the mix is split: 25 percent of homes were built before 1950 and 22 percent in the 1950s, while 33 percent were built in 2010 or later. Forty-nine percent are single-family detached houses and 32 percent are in buildings of fifty or more units.
The older houses have usually been re-roofed before, and the deck and roof-to-wall connections deserve as much attention as the new covering; the newer buildings carry association low-slope roofs with rooftop equipment that the city’s zoning asks to be screened.
What the city requires
The West Miami roof permit
The City of West Miami has issued its own roofing permits since January 6, 2014, and requires a permit for roofing work including partial repairs and fascia board replacement. Its roofing package includes the city permit application, signed by the owner and the qualifier with both signatures notarized, the owner’s notification for roofing considerations, and the FBC 8th Edition (2023) HVHZ uniform roofing application with product approval pages, a fire directory listing and design calculations.
City code section 10-5(j) prohibits construction between 7 p.m. and 8 a.m. on weekdays and between 7 p.m. and 9 a.m. on Saturdays, and allows it from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Sundays.
