Tile & Shingle Roof Replacement in Doral, FL

Hurricane Irma struck in September 2017 as a Category 4 storm, and Doral's newer construction generally performed well — a direct result of the post-Hurricane Andrew building codes enacted after 1992. However, high-rise condos in Downtown Doral and some early-2000s single-family homes still sustained window and roof damage from sustained Category 4 winds. Homeowners whose roofs survived Irma with minor damage often delayed replacement, but those same roofs are now 20-plus years old and no longer eligible for standard homeowner's insurance renewal under Florida's 2023 roof-age rules.

Waiting another season is a financial risk: carriers are non-renewing policies on roofs over 15-20 years old across Miami-Dade County.
