Roofing in Kendall,
Start to Close-Out
Kendall is where Robson started, and it's still Tier 1 for us: fast response and our full nine-step process, from the first call to the closed-out county permit. Here’s exactly how a Kendall roof job runs with us, and where we’ll tell you the truth instead of the upsell.

The decking line nobody else puts in writing
Here’s the thing about re-roofing a Kendall home built in the 1970s–90s: until the old tile and underlayment come off, nobody can see the wood deck underneath. Most of it is fine. Some sheets near valleys, skylights, or old leak paths are soft. A contractor who promises a single locked price either pads it heavily up front or hits you with a change order halfway through.
We do it differently. Your written scope includes a stated per-sheet decking allowance (a fixed price per replaced plywood sheet), and we show you every bad sheet before it’s covered. If the deck is sound, you don’t pay for wood you didn’t need. If it’s not, you already knew the number. That’s the honest way to budget a tear-off.
Repair, reset, or replace
Not every Kendall roof needs replacing. On many aging tile roofs the tile itself is still sound and the real failure is the dried-out underlayment beneath it, which can mean an underlayment replacement that reuses good tile where code allows, not a full teardown. On a younger shingle roof with a single storm-damaged slope, a repair is often the right and honest call. We’ll tell you which of the three you’re actually looking at after we’re on the roof.
Our 9-step Kendall roofing workflow
The same process on every Kendall roof, whether it’s a repair or a full replacement. No skipped inspections, no surprise change orders.
1. Call & schedule
You call or send the form; because Kendall is Tier 1 for us, we usually get a crew out the same week, sooner if there’s an active leak.
2. We get on the roof
We physically walk the roof and fly the drone, not a windshield estimate from the driveway. On Kendall tile we lift a few pieces to read the underlayment, because that’s what’s usually failing.
3. Honest findings — including the decking question
You get straight answers: repair, underlayment-and-reset, or full replacement. We’re upfront that nobody knows the true decking condition until the tile and felt come off.
4. Written scope & product selection
A line-item scope, not a one-number guess. We match the system to your house: GAF or TAMKO Titan XT shingle, Westlake Royal (Newpoint) tile, or Englert Series 1300 standing-seam metal, all NOA-approved for the HVHZ, over two-ply Polyglass underlayment.
5. RER permit, under our license
We pull the Miami-Dade RER permit under your address and the product’s Notice of Acceptance. That permit and its inspections are what protect you at resale and on a claim.
6. HOA color & profile approval
If your Kendall HOA reviews roof color or tile profile, we prep the submittal and time the job around the review so you’re not stuck mid-tear-off waiting on a board.
7. Tear-off, deck check, dry-in
We strip to the deck, inspect every sheet, replace what’s rotten at the per-sheet allowance from step 3, re-nail to HVHZ schedule, and dry-in with two-ply Polyglass.
8. In-progress (dry-in) inspection
Before any tile or shingle goes back on, the county inspects the dry-in. This is the inspection corner-cutters skip; we schedule it every time, and it’s in your permit record.
9. Finish, final inspection & close-out
Final roof, final county inspection, full clean-up and magnet sweep, then your packet: permit number, closed-out final, NOA sheets, and the manufacturer warranty registration.
