Roofing in Homestead
A reroof in Homestead is 2.0% of the value of the work on the Building Division Adopted Fee Schedule, adopted September 9, 2025. Miami-Dade County places Homestead in High-Velocity Hurricane Zone territory. The city's Building Code page lists the state building code's 8th Edition (2023), but an older Building Department overview page still cites the 2020 edition, so the two pages don't agree. A permit application takes the 13-digit property folio, with owner and qualifier signatures notarized, and goes with plans by email to permits@homesteadfl.gov.
Owner-builders attach proof of ownership and sign an Owner/Builder Affidavit. The permit fee is due after approvals. Then the permit card issues. The Building Department is at City Hall, 100 Civic Court, (305) 224-4500, and it prints no counter hours. The city's flood page says repairs and replacement work require a permit. Where repair or improvement cost reaches fifty percent of the building's market value before the work, the building must have its finished floor one foot above Base Flood Elevation.
Once a structure has substantial damage, any repair counts as substantial improvement. The five-year ACS (2020-2024) reports a 2001 median year built and an owner-occupied share of 48.3 percent. A Homestead reroof application goes in by email, and the 2.0% fee is paid only after approval.
