Coral Gables requires Board of Architects approval for any exterior modification that alters the visual character of a property, and a roof replacement falls squarely within that requirement. The homeowner or contractor submits an application that includes the proposed tile profile, color, and base material along with elevation drawings showing how the new roof relates to the existing structure. The Board reviews the submission for consistency with the neighborhood’s design standards and may request modifications before granting approval.
Haven Home Remodeling Group manages the Board of Architects submission for every Coral Gables tile roof project. Haven prepares the application package, attends the review session if required, and incorporates any Board feedback into the final tile specification before filing the building permit with Miami-Dade County. The sequence matters because Board approval must precede the building permit, and Haven ensures the two processes are coordinated so one does not stall the other.
