Roofing Services in Miami Lakes
Miami Lakes is a planned community in northwest Miami-Dade County, developed starting in the 1960s by the Graham family as one of Florida's first master-planned towns. The community's older planned-neighborhood character means a mix of 1960s–1980s homes with aging flat or low-slope roofs alongside later construction with concrete tile.
Roofing in Miami Lakes — What You Need to Know
Miami Lakes is a planned community in northwest Miami-Dade County, developed starting in the 1960s by the Graham family as one of Florida's first master-planned towns. The community's older planned-neighborhood character means a mix of 1960s–1980s homes with aging flat or low-slope roofs alongside later construction with concrete tile. As Miami Lakes' original housing stock approaches 50–60 years of age, roofing is one of the most pressing maintenance needs in the community. Roofing Miami works throughout Miami Lakes on both the older flat-roof stock and the newer tile homes, pulling Miami-Dade County permits for all work in the town.
Climate & Environment Note
Miami Lakes' interior northwest location provides some insulation from direct coastal wind, but the community's low-lying terrain and proximity to the Everglades means it is susceptible to severe afternoon thunderstorms and periodic flooding. Flat roof drainage is critical in this environment.

- Flat and low-slope modified bitumen (1960s–1970s planned community homes)
- Concrete tile (1980s–1990s residential)
