AfterFast, Reliable Roof Repair Across Kendall
Roof repair in Kendall usually means one of two things: a leak around a vent, skylight, or chimney, or water finding its way in where the roof meets your our Impact Windows in Kendall. Most jobs we handle run between $450 and $1,800, depending on whether we’re replacing corroded flashing, resealing a roof-to-wall juncture, or repairing a penetration boot. If you’re seeing water stains on the ceiling or daylight through a flashing gap in a 1970s or 1980s CBS home, call (561) 489-4036 for a free estimate. We know Kendall’s housing stock, its humidity, and the salt air that eats aluminum flashing faster here than almost anywhere else in South Florida.
Backed by the 90-Day Done Right Promise, our crew does the repair once, does it to Miami-Dade HVHZ inspection standards, and stands behind it in writing. No re-roofs pushed when a targeted repair is the right call. No out-of-county materials that fail inspection.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
TruePane has worked in Kendall long enough to know which blocks flood first in a summer storm and which 1980s subdivisions still have original aluminum flashing at every window head. We have been trusted by homeowners across Kendale Lakes, The Hammocks, and West Kendall for window and door work that intersects with roof conditions in ways most roofers miss. The reputation comes from showing up on time, quoting an honest number, and doing the work so it passes the Miami-Dade inspection the first time.
Our customers in Kendall repeatedly tell us the same thing: the flashing repair around their impact windows finally stopped the leak that two previous roofers couldn’t find. That is not an accident. It’s because we understand how the roof and the window opening work together as one waterproofing assembly, not as two separate trades.
Our Roof Repair in Kendall team coordinates scheduling and dispatch from our Miami (South Florida) office, and crews serve Kendall locally. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so when a storm rips a vent cap off at 9 p.m., you talk to a human, not a voicemail tree.
Our Roof Repair Services in Kendall
Roof Flashing Repair at Window Heads
This is the repair Kendall calls us for most often. Pre-1993 CBS homes in Kendale Lakes, The Hammocks, and Country Walk still carry original aluminum flashing at the roof-to-wall juncture above impact windows. Thirty-plus years of salt aerosol from Biscayne Bay and daily humidity has oxidized that aluminum into white powder. Water follows the gap. We strip the corroded flashing, replace it with hot-dip galvanized steel, and lap it under the existing Miami-Dade NOA impact units. That’s a $600 to $1,400 repair, not a $12,000 window replacement.
Vent Cap and Pipe Boot Replacement
Every roof penetration in Kendall takes a beating from the summer thunderstorm cycle. Rubber boots crack under UV and thermal cycling; cheap galvanized vent caps rust through and drop in the first good wind. We replace them with marine-grade boots and stainless fasteners rated for the HVHZ wind zone. A typical vent cap replacement in Kendall runs $250 to $450 per penetration. A full re-seal of all penetrations on a standard 1,800-square-foot ranch runs $900 to $1,500.
Roof-to-Wall Sealant Reconditioning
Kendall’s near-daily summer thunderstorms pressure-cycle every roof-to-wall sealant joint on impact window frames. Hairline cracks that open during a wind-driven rain let water in behind the frame, staining drywall and rotting the jamb over time. We cut out the failed sealant, re-bond the joint with marine-grade polyurethane, and re-secure the flashing to the opening. Most jobs take one visit, and the material cost is low because the skill is in the prep, not the tube.
Skylight Flashing and Re-Seal
Skylights are the most common leak point in Kendall’s Mediterranean-style homes. Curb-mounted units from the 1980s often have original aluminum flashing that has corroded at the corners. Flat roof sections on additions are even worse. We re-flash skylights to current Miami-Dade code using NOA-compatible materials and seal every lap joint with marine-grade polyurethane. A skylight re-flash in Kendall is typically $500 to $900 when the curb is sound; if the curb has rotted, $900 to $1,500.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall
We work around windows and doors from CGI, CWS, and ES Windows on Kendall roof repair jobs. When a repair touches a CGI impact window head or a CWS door threshold, we match the flashing and sealant to that manufacturer’s installation detail, so the roof repair never voids a warranty or triggers a failed Miami-Dade inspection. We stock marine-grade flashing, stainless fasteners, and a range of NOA-compatible vent caps in our service vehicles, which means most Kendall repairs happen in a single visit with no second appointment left hanging.
Common Roof Repair Problems We See in Kendall Homes
- Corroded aluminum flashing at window heads: The single most common failure on pre-1993 CBS homes in Kendale Lakes and The Hammocks. Salt aerosol from Biscayne Bay plus year-round humidity oxidizes aluminum into white powder, and water finds the gap at the jamb-to-roof juncture. We replace the flashing with hot-dip galvanized steel that survives the next decade of salt-and-humidity cycling.
- Failed roof-to-wall sealant at impact window frames: HVHZ pressure cycling from Kendall’s daily summer thunderstorms fatigues sealant into hairline cracks. Wind-driven rain pushes water through those cracks into the wall cavity. We re-seal with marine-grade polyurethane that flexes without failing.
- Rusted vent caps and pipe boots: Cheap galvanized caps and rubber boots fail fast under Kendall’s UV and humidity. They are the first things to leak in a heavy summer downpour. We specify marine-grade replacements with stainless fasteners.
- Skylight leaks on flat-roof additions: Many Kendall homes added flat-roof living spaces in the 1980s and 1990s. Those skylights were often flashed with the cheapest aluminum available, and thirty years later they leak through the corners. A re-flash fixes it for a fraction of a roof replacement.

What Roof Repair Costs in Kendall
Roof repair pricing in Kendall moves on four things: opening count, wind zone, floor height, and how long the leak has been running. A single-story CBS ranch with one failed flashing is a simple $600 to $1,400 repair. A two-story Mediterranean with failed flashing above six impact windows and rotted jambs will run $3,000 to $6,000 before drywall repairs. The HVHZ wind zone adds labor and materials because every material that touches an opening has to reconcile with Miami-Dade NOA requirements. Floor height adds access equipment if we’re working above the first story. And a leak that has been running for years has typically rotted the jamb, which doubles the scope. Larger, custom repairs can land in the $2,500 to $5,000 range on complicated assemblies. Whole-home re-flash packages run $8,000 to $25,000-plus depending on opening count and the condition of the substrate. We measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and the estimate is free. Call (561) 489-4036 to schedule a measure.
Compare that to impact window replacement, which is a different job entirely. Impact windows in Kendall generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed; impact single-hung runs $900 to $1,800; large or custom openings run $2,500 to $5,000 each. If your flashing is shot but the window itself is sound, a $1,200 flashing repair is the right call. If the frame is rotted from years of neglect, a replacement may be the honest recommendation. We quote both and let you decide.
Florida Pays You Back
Kendall homeowners often reduce the net cost of wind-mitigation and impact-related work through a stack of programs that actually apply in Miami-Dade County. My Safe Florida Home offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades when funding is active. Florida sales tax is exempt on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit allows 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150 in this market), many carriers credit roughly 25% on the windstorm portion of the premium. Programs and carriers set the final numbers, and nothing is guaranteed until your carrier reviews your specific policy and inspection. But these incentives exist, and we will help you document what qualifies.
One thing Kendall homeowners ask us constantly: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters only work if someone is home to hang them before the storm and strong enough to wrestle panels in 40-mph gusts. Impact windows are always on, always protecting, and there’s nothing to store in the garage. The tradeoff is upfront cost. Over a thirty-year ownership, though, impact glass plus the insurance credit usually wins. And we have repaired too many roofs that were cut open by a flying shutter panel to pretend otherwise.

FAQs - Roof Repair in Kendall
Yes, any repair that touches the flashing, sealant, or assembly at an impact window opening must reconcile with the Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for that window. Kendall is entirely within the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so the building department will reject a repair that uses non-NOA-reconciled materials at the opening. We lap repairs under the existing NOA impact units and use compliant flashing and sealant, so the inspection passes the first time. Call (561) 489-4036 to schedule a free measure.
Kendall sits on flat limestone topography with no natural wind break, so homes take full hurricane-track pressure loads even miles inland. Salt aerosol carried from Biscayne Bay combines with year-round humidity to oxidize aluminum flashing decades faster than in Broward or Palm Beach counties. Daily summer thunderstorms pressure-cycle the sealant and accelerate every failure mode. That’s why we specify hot-dip galvanized steel and marine-grade polyurethane instead of replacing aluminum with aluminum. If you’re seeing white powder at your window heads, call (561) 489-4036 to get an exact quote. Estimates are free.
Usually yes, if the leak is at the roof-to-wall juncture or head flashing. The leak most Kendall homeowners call us about is at the window head, where failed flashing or sealant lets wind-driven rain in behind the frame. We re-flash with hot-dip galvanized steel, re-seal the juncture with marine-grade polyurethane, and often the leak is gone that day. If the leak is through the window unit itself, we’ll tell you honestly and quote the replacement. Call (561) 489-4036 to schedule a free diagnostic measure.
An inland-spec flashing repair in Georgia or North Florida might cost $300 to $500 per window head using standard aluminum and sealant. A coastal-spec repair in Kendall runs $600 to $1,400 per window head because the materials cost more and the labor is more exacting. Hot-dip galvanized steel, stainless fasteners, marine-grade polyurethane, and the time to lap everything under the NOA impact window detail add real cost. But the inland-spec aluminum will be powder in five years here, and you’ll pay for the same repair twice. The coastal spec survives the next decade or more. Call (561) 489-4036 for a written quote, and we’ll show you both specs side by side on paper.
No, and that’s a good thing. The original 1970s vent caps on The Hammocks tract homes were cheap galvanized caps that rust through and leak. Matching them exactly would mean installing the same failure we’re there to fix. What matters is that the replacement meets current Miami-Dade performance standards and fits the existing curb or penetration. We stock marine-grade and NOA-compatible options that drop into the existing opening. If you’re in The Hammocks and have a leaking vent cap, call (561) 489-4036. We’ll quote it on the spot.
Kendall’s combination of HVHZ pressure cycling, salt aerosol from Biscayne Bay, and year-round humidity creates a specific failure pattern we don’t see inland. Aluminum flashing at window heads oxidizes into white powder, roof-to-wall sealant at impact window frames cracks under daily thunderstorm pressure changes, and cheap galvanized vent caps rust through. These three failures account for most of the Kendall Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing repairs we do in Kendale Lakes, The Hammocks, and West Kendall. On a 1980s CBS ranch in Kendale Lakes, our crew found the original aluminum roof flashing at the window heads had oxidized into white powder, and the jamb-to-roof juncture showed daylight. We stripped the corroded flashing, replaced it with hot-dip galvanized steel lapped under the existing Miami-Dade NOA impact windows, and sealed every joint with marine-grade polyurethane-no re-roof, no window replacement, just a repair that survives the next decade of Kendall’s salt-and-humidity cycling. That’s the standard we bring to every job.
We serve Kendall with local crews dispatched from our Miami (South Florida) office. Standard repairs are scheduled quickly, and a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you’ll talk to a human the first time you call. Custom fabrication runs 4 to 6 weeks if new window or door units are needed, but most roof repairs are completed in a single visit once we’re on site. Call (561) 489-4036 and we’ll give you an honest window, not a runaround.
Most flashing, sealant, and penetration repairs do not require a permit in Miami-Dade County, and we’ll tell you honestly when yours does. When a permit is required-for example, when a repair integrates with new impact window framing-we pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and make sure the repair passes the first time. We will never sidestep the building department. If a repair should be permitted, it is. Call (561) 489-4036 to discuss your specific repair and what it will require.
We quote every Kendall roof repair as a written line-item estimate before work begins, and the price we quote is the price on the bill. The only time the number changes is when we open up a wall or flashing and find hidden damage that was not visible from the outside-a rotted jamb, a corroded sill, or a failed substrate. In that case, we stop, show you what we found, and quote the additional work before doing it. No surprise line items, no change orders you didn’t approve. Call (561) 489-4036 for a free estimate and a written quote.
