Our old Grove house had tile on the front and metal over the addition, and every rain found the seam between them. Apex tore it all off, rebuilt the tie-in the right way, and now it is one roof that stays dry.

Local Overview
Full Roof Replacement for Coconut Grove Homes
Coconut Grove does not have one kind of roof, and that is the first thing a full roof replacement here has to reckon with. A single Grove home might carry original clay tile over the main house, a metal roof on a later addition, and a low-slope section over a porch or a converted garage. When a roof like that reaches the end of its life, the replacement is really about getting these systems to work as one again. We tear off to the deck across the whole roof, then rebuild the tie-ins where tile meets metal and where an addition was grafted onto the older structure, because those transitions are where Grove roofs leak first. The deck itself tells the story of the home. Older Grove houses often sit under a dense tree canopy that keeps the roof damp and shaded, so the plywood holds moisture and the fasteners corrode faster than they would in the open. At tear-off we replace the soft decking, upgrade to a high-heat peel and stick underlayment, and set new flashing at every valley and wall. That canopy is also the biggest storm risk in the neighborhood, dropping heavy limbs through hurricane season, so we build to the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standard for 170 mph winds, and a well-set tile roof can carry a rating near 185 mph against impact as well as uplift. The Grove also has waterfront pockets along the bay where salt air adds to the wear, so near the water we spec corrosion-rated flashing and fasteners and pay extra attention to the metal. On homes with mixed tile and metal we walk you through which system fits which section, in plain language, rather than forcing one material over the whole roof. When the work is done we complete the wind mitigation form your insurer uses, which can cut a premium by 500 to 2000 dollars a year, and we help eligible owners apply for the My Safe Florida Home grant of up to 10000 dollars. Every replacement is photo documented, backed by a written workmanship warranty, and delivered by a family-owned, licensed and insured crew with 15 years in Miami.

Grove homes often mix tile, metal, and low-slope sections. We rebuild each with the right system and make them work together instead of forcing one material over everything.

Our Process
How a Coconut Grove Roof Replacement Runs
From the first inspection of mixed roof sections to the wind mitigation filing, each step is documented and built around your home's layout.
-
Whole-Roof Inspection
We inspect each section, tile, metal, and low-slope, photograph the tie-ins and flashing, and email a written report the same day that maps the condition of the entire roof.
-
Itemized Quote by Section
The quote breaks out each roof area with its system, the tie-in work, and the deck allowance, so you see exactly what each part of the home needs.
-
Permit and Scheduling
We pull the Miami-Dade permit, confirm HVHZ product approval for each material, and schedule the tear-off around your calendar and the tree access on the lot.
-
Tear-Off and Tie-In Repair
We strip each section to the deck, replace damp or rotten plywood, rebuild the tie-ins between materials, and dry in daily so the home stays protected.
-
Rebuild and Wind Mitigation
We install the new tile, metal, and underlayment, set the flashing, complete the wind mitigation form, and hand over the written warranty at closeout.
Testimonials
Coconut Grove Homeowners on Their New Roof
Verified Customer
A big limb came through during the season and cracked the roof open. Apex found soggy decking under the shade of our oaks, replaced it, and rebuilt to code. They filed the wind mitigation form and our premium dropped.
Verified Customer
Being close to the water, our flashing had corroded badly. Apex used coated metal and explained every choice in plain terms. The crew respected the trees on the lot and cleaned up completely each day.

FAQs
Full Roof Replacement in Coconut Grove: Common Questions
My Grove home has both tile and metal. Can you replace all of it?
Yes. Mixed roofs are common in Coconut Grove. We tear off each section to the deck and rebuild it with the right system, whether that is tile, metal, or low-slope membrane, and we rebuild the tie-ins between them so the whole roof works as one. We explain which system suits each area in plain terms.
Why do older Grove roofs have so much decking damage?
The dense canopy keeps roofs shaded and damp, so plywood holds moisture and fasteners corrode faster than on open lots. Under tile or metal that still looks fine, the deck can be soft. We only see the full extent at tear-off, which is why we replace failed decking as part of every replacement.
How do you protect the trees on my lot during the work?
We plan staging and access around the canopy, keep material drops clear of root zones where we can, and schedule tree-adjacent work carefully. The same canopy is the biggest storm risk, so we build the new roof to resist the limbs it drops during hurricane season.
Does being near the water change the roof you build?
In the Grove's waterfront pockets, yes. Salt air corrodes flashing and fasteners faster, so near the bay we spec coated and stainless metal and pay extra attention to the flashing details, which is where salt-driven failures usually start.
Will a new roof lower my insurance in Coconut Grove?
Usually. A roof rebuilt to current code earns credits on the wind mitigation form your insurer uses to price the policy, commonly worth 500 to 2000 dollars a year. We complete that form as part of the job and help eligible owners apply for the My Safe Florida Home grant of up to 10000 dollars.
