Trusted Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing for Coral Gables Homeowners
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Coral Gables costs between $9,500 and $28,000 for a full replacement on a typical 2,200-square-foot home, with tile running highest and architectural shingle running lowest. Most repairs fall between $450 and $1,800 depending on what failed. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and while our name says windows, our second-generation glazier’s craft carries directly into roofing: we measure twice, quote honestly on paper, and stand behind the work in writing.
Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a rule that’s still on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. For roofing, the same principle applies. A roof that’s off by half an inch at the eave becomes a leak by September. We’ve been serving Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Olympia Heights, and the surrounding neighborhoods since 2008 through that heritage. Call (954) 507-3613 and a live person answers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
You’re not shopping for the cheapest bid. You’re shopping for the last roof you’ll ever need to think about. That’s the standard we build to.
What Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Service Includes
We handle all three roofing systems common to Coral Gables: asphalt shingle, clay and concrete tile, and standing-seam or panel metal. Each one has different failure patterns in this climate, and each one gets a different inspection protocol before we quote anything. Here’s what that looks like in practice.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingle is the most common roofing material in Coral Gables, and it’s also the most quietly neglected. The Florida sun breaks down the asphalt compounds faster than manufacturers’ marketing materials suggest, especially on south-facing slopes that take direct afternoon heat. By year 12 to 15, we regularly see granule loss, curling at the edges, and nail pops where the fasteners have backed out under thermal cycling. We inspect every shingle roof for these signs before we recommend anything. When we replace a shingle roof, we quote the specific shingle line by name, install to the manufacturer’s high-wind nailing pattern that matters for Miami-Dade County code, and register the warranty in writing before the crew leaves your driveway.
If you’re in Coral Gables and your shingle roof is over 10 years old, you should have it looked at before hurricane season. Not because it’s failing today, but because the failure is cheapest to fix now.

Tile Roofing (Clay and Concrete)
Tile roofs are built to last 40 to 50 years in Coral Gables, but the underlayment beneath them is not. The clay or concrete tile itself is mostly inert, but the felt or synthetic underlayment that actually keeps water out degrades in 20 to 25 years under Florida’s heat and humidity. We see this constantly in neighborhoods like Coral Terrace and Glenvar Heights where original tile roofs from the late 1990s are now due for underlayment replacement. The tile looks fine from the street. The underlayment is cracking and the battens are rotting underneath.
We specialize in tile roof restoration: lifting the tile, inspecting the deck, replacing underlayment with code-compliant synthetic material, and resetting the original tile where it’s still sound. Where tile is cracked or spalled, we source matching replacements from local distributors in Kendall and Westchester before we quote. You shouldn’t have to live with a patchwork roof because a previous contractor couldn’t find the right tile.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing in Coral Gables is the fastest-growing segment we see, and for good reason. A properly installed standing-seam metal roof will outlast the mortgage, shed hurricane-force wind better than almost anything else on the market, and lower your attic temperature measurably. The catch is that most metal roof failures are installation failures: wrong fasteners, wrong panel overlap, missing thermal expansion allowance. Metal moves. It expands and contracts with every degree shift, and if the installer didn’t account for that, the fasteners work loose and the panels oil-can or tear.
We quote metal roofing from manufacturers we trust, using factory-specified clips and fasteners, and we document every penetration and seam. The Keystone Standard applies here like everywhere else: both warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. No verbal assurances. Paper.

Brands We Service for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for roofing specifically we work most often with CGI and ECO Window Systems for impact-rated metal and tile-adjacent systems. CGI’s impact-rated metal panels are engineered for Miami-Dade County’s wind requirements, and we’ve quoted and installed their lines side by side with competitors so homeowners can see the difference on paper before spending a dollar. We know their fastening schedules and their warranty registration process.
ES Windows and CWS round out the lines we service most in Coral Gables, particularly when homeowners are replacing windows and doors at the same time as a roof project. That’s common here: the roofing project exposes fascia and flashing issues that touch the window openings, and we can handle both scopes without handing you off to a second company. If you have a different manufacturer’s roof on your home, we service that too. The brand matters less than the installation integrity.
Signs You Need Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Right Now
- Granules in your gutters or at downspout outlets. Asphalt shingle roofs shed granules as they age, and when you start seeing them accumulate in your Coral Gables gutters, the shingle’s protective layer is failing. The roof hasn’t failed yet, but the clock is running faster than you want it to. We can tell you how much life is left with a roof inspection.
- Water stains on your ceiling after a heavy rain. A stain means water has already made it through the roof deck and into your living space. The leak you can see is usually not where the water is entering. In Coral Gables, where summer thunderstorms drop an inch of rain in an hour, a small penetration becomes a big problem in one afternoon. Call us the day you see it.
- Cracked, shifted, or missing tiles after a storm. Tile roofs can look intact from the street while tiles have cracked and shifted at the ridge or in the valleys. A shifted tile leaves a gap for wind-driven rain to get under the adjacent tiles and into the underlayment. In neighborhoods like Sunset and Palmetto Bay, we see this after every significant tropical system.
- Rust streaks or fastener stains on a metal roof. Metal roofing should not rust. When you see rust at fasteners or panel edges, the protective coating has been compromised, often by the wrong fastener material used at installation. Galvanic corrosion is real, and it’s progressive. A metal roof with rusting fasteners will fail at those points long before the panel itself wears out.
- Sagging deck lines or visible deflection between rafters. Walk the perimeter of your Coral Gables home and look along the ridge line and eave edges. If the line isn’t straight, the deck or the rafter system has a structural problem that a new roof alone won’t fix. You need someone who will tell you the truth about what’s underneath before they quote you a new roof. That’s us.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process - Step by Step
- 1
The roof inspection and deck assessment. We start by walking your roof and inspecting it from the deck up, not the street down. Every penetration, every transition, every flashing point gets checked. We photograph what we find and show you the photos on the spot. You know what we know before you pay us anything.
- 2
The written line-item quote on paper. You get a quote that lists materials by manufacturer name and line, quantities, labor, disposal, and any permit fees separately. No lump sums. No “roofing package” that hides what you’re actually buying. Side-by-side manufacturer comparisons if you want them, so you can see the difference in cost and coverage.
- 3
Permit pull and scheduling. We pull the Coral Gables building permit ourselves and schedule the work around your life, not the other way around. We’ll be there when we say, with a crew that’s background-checked and uniformed. You’ll know exactly who’s on your property and why.
- 4
The tear-off, deck repair, and installation. Old roofing comes off, the deck gets inspected for rot and deflection, and any needed repairs are documented with photos before new material goes on. We install to manufacturer’s high-wind specifications for Miami-Dade County, which is stricter than most of the country. No shortcuts on fastening, flashing, or underlayment.
- 5
Warranty registration and the Done Right Promise. Before the truck leaves your driveway, both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing with durations stated. If anything isn’t done right within 90 days, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing, no fine print that covers neither. The Keystone Standard applies to every roofing job we do.
How Much Does Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Cost in Coral Gables?
A full shingle roof replacement in Coral Gables on a 2,000 to 2,500-square-foot home typically runs $9,500 to $16,000 depending on shingle grade, tear-off complexity, and deck condition. Tile roof replacement, including underlayment and resetting or replacing tile, runs $18,000 to $28,000 for the same footprint. Metal roofing runs $16,000 to $32,000 depending on whether you choose exposed-fastener panel or standing-seam, and whether impact-rated panels are required by your specific zone.
Repairs are priced by the job, not the hour. A simple shingle patch or tile replacement in Coral Gables runs $450 to $800. Flashing repair around a chimney or skylight runs $500 to $1,200. Underlayment replacement on a tile roof runs $6 to $10 per square foot depending on material grade and access difficulty. These are honest ranges based on what we’ve quoted in this market over the years, not national averages that don’t account for Florida wind codes and Coral Gables permitting requirements.
What affects the price most: roof pitch (steep roofs cost more in labor and safety equipment), deck condition (rot repairs add material and time), and whether you need impact-rated materials. What doesn’t affect the price: our mood, the season, or how busy we are. Our quote is our quote. The free estimate includes the inspection, the photos, and the written line-item quote. You’re not obligated to anything.

Frequently Asked Questions - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Coral Gables
Shingle, tile, and metal roofing are the three main roofing systems installed on Coral Gables homes. Asphalt shingle is the most common and most affordable upfront, tile (clay or concrete) is the longest-lasting and heaviest, and metal offers the best wind resistance and energy reflectivity. We install, repair, and replace all three. Whichever system fits your home, we quote it on paper and stand behind it.
A shingle roof replacement typically takes two to four days including tear-off and cleanup. A tile roof replacement or underlayment job typically takes five to ten days depending on tile condition and access. A metal roof runs five to twelve days.
