Is it time for a new roof? If the last hurricane or tropical storm ripped some shingles off your roof or it’s time for a complete roof replacement, the local team at T&E Roofing is here to help. We provide expert re-roofing, roof repair, and roof upgrade services to residential homes and commercial buildings across South Florida. Good service starts by giving you the answers you need to choose the right materials and styles for your next Florida roofing. If you don’t see an answer to your question here, contact us for friendly assistance or schedule a free estimate with the form above for specific answers.

Which Roofing Material is Best?

Roofs come in a wide range of materials. Residential Florida roofing materials found on most homes in the Miami metro area are typically shingles, metal, or tile. Commercial roofs come in a wide variety of TPO, membranes, and other flat roof options. If you’re looking for a beautiful, long-lasting replacement for your current roof, metal and tile are two very popular options.

Either option is an excellent investment for residential and commercial properties.

Can I Upgrade From a Shingle to a Metal Roof?

If you currently have a shingle roof, we can easily replace it with a metal roof. Metal roofing is lightweight, so your underlying roof won’t need additional reinforcement. In some circumstances, it can even be installed over your existing shingles for a cost-effective upgrade.

What's the Lifespan of a Metal Roof?

Both corrugated and standing seam metal roofs offer a significantly longer lifespan than traditional shingles. They can last between 40 and 70 years if they’re regularly monitored and maintained. Even in South Florida’s balmy climate, with lots of sunlight, heavy rainstorms, and moist heat, metal roofs can easily last for 40 years or more. Standing seam roofs last longer with less maintenance, as corrugated roofs will occasionally need small hardware replacements over the decades.

What's the Lifespan of a Tile Roof?

Tile roofs last even longer. Both clay and concrete tile varieties are durable and, in ideal conditions, they can last at least 50 years. With the Miami area being prone to lots of tropical storms and wind damage, a tile roof installed by T&E roofing can still be expected to last approximately 30 years.

How Long Does a Roof Replacement Take?

Roof replacements are a fast way to protect and upgrade your home. Depending on the size of the roof, the project can be completed in as little as a day or two; more complex roofs or roofs of larger homes may take three or four days. However, it may take a few weeks to schedule the roof replacement, order the materials, and get everything ready for work to begin.

How Much Is It to Replace a Roof?

The cost of a new roof depends on size, materials, and roofer availability. Prices may rise during peak seasons, causing potential delays. Metal and tile roofs cost more than shingles due to materials and durability. Expect to pay about $10,000-20,000 for a metal roof and $15,000-$30,000 or more for a tile roof.

Do You Offer Only Residential Roofing?

At T&E Roofing, we offer roofing services across South Florida for both residential and commercial buildings. Our team can assess your current roof, provide re-roofing to extend your roof’s lifespan and upgrade your property with a tile or metal roof.

What Are the Best Flat Roofing Materials for Florida?

Flat roofs in Florida need to withstand intense sun, heavy rain, high humidity, and hurricane-force winds. Popular flat roofing systems include TPO, modified bitumen, and membrane roofing because they offer strong waterproofing, durability, and energy efficiency. The best choice depends on your building type, drainage needs, and budget. At T & E Roofing, we help homeowners and businesses choose flat roofing systems designed specifically for South Florida’s climate and storm conditions.

How Long Does a Flat Roof Last in South Florida?

The lifespan of a flat roof depends on the material used, installation quality, and ongoing maintenance. In South Florida, a professionally installed and properly maintained flat roof can last 20–30 years or more. Regular inspections, proper drainage, and prompt repairs help prevent ponding water, leaks, and sun-related deterioration that can shorten a flat roof’s lifespan.

T&E Roofing recently completed a roofing project for me, and overall, I was quite satisfied with their work. They finished the job in a remarkably short timeframe, which was a significant plus. The main roofing work appears to have been done well.

However, there were a few aspects that didn’t fully meet my expectations. I had requested a full (100%) replacement of the fascia (furry), but only about 25% was replaced.

Communication throughout the project was generally good—they were very responsive. Their professionalism was solid, the materials used appeared to be of good quality, and the cleanup was well handled.

Considering the overall quality and impressive speed of the work, along with the minor inconveniences, I feel the value for money was good.

I would recommend T&E Roofing to others. In summary, my experience suggests they are an efficient and generally competent company for core roofing work, though there may be some room for improvement in attention to detail and fully meeting customer expectations.

Highly recommend T&E Roofing.  They did a great job from start to finish.  Workers were very polite.  The owner and staff were responsive to all questions and calls and provided all necessary documents upon request for our HOA.  Their pricing was very competitive and they took the time to explain the process and what would be done.   The process was quick and efficient and the work was completed in a timely manner.  Our roof looks amazing and we are very happy.
