Roof replacement in Country Club, FL

The typical home in Country Club was built in 1988, which means many roofs here have been on for decades. Replacing one in Miami-Dade County requires a permit, and that permit triggers the county's current roofing rules. Most owners here are looking at a roof that predates the newer code, so the permit step matters more than usual.

Roof age and risk

How old are roofs in Country Club, and what that means

The median home in Country Club was built in 1988, and the county median is 1980. That suggests a large share of roofs on local homes are now well past the age when most shingle systems start needing attention.

Only 3 percent of homes here were built in 2010 or later. Nearly all the roofs you see are original or have been replaced at least once, so a roof inspection makes sense before a leak appears.

Permits and inspections

What a re-roof permit requires in Miami-Dade County

Country Club is unincorporated, so the Miami-Dade County Regulatory and Economic Resources department issues the roof permit. Check the department's Building and Permits page before work begins.

Under the 25 percent rule, no more than 25 percent of a roof can be replaced in any 12-month period unless the whole roof system is replaced. For a Country Club roof built or repaired to the 2007 code or later, only the repaired portion may need to meet current code.

Questions

Roof replacement in Country Club: questions

What is the 25% roof rule in Florida?

The 25 percent rule limits how much of a roof can be repaired or replaced in any 12-month period without bringing the whole roof system up to current code. In Country Club, the county building office applies this rule to permits. Under the exception, a roof built or repaired to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later may only need the repaired part updated. Confirm your permit scope with Miami-Dade County Regulatory and Economic Resources.

What is the new law in Florida about roofs?

The current Florida Building Code, 2023 Eighth Edition, took effect December 31, 2023. Permit applications filed on or after December 31, 2026 fall under the Ninth Edition, which takes effect that day. Country Club roofs permitted through Miami-Dade County fall under whichever edition applies on the filing date. Check with the county building office for your specific project.
