How many quotes should I get for a roofing job in Miami?

At least three. In the permit record the middle half of Miami roofing firms usually file between $12,996 and $20,400 a job, so two ordinary firms can sit 1.6 times apart and both be normal for Miami. A third quote shows which one is the outlier. Filed values are what contractors wrote on permits, not quotes, so use them to judge the spread, not to price your own job.

How much do roofers charge in Miami?

The usual roofing job is filed at $16,250; the middle half of firms usually file between $12,996 and $20,400. The 10 firms with the most permits in the last 12 months usually file $15,000, less than the usual. See every firm's usual job

Why is this different from the per-square-foot prices I see online?

Online prices are quoted per square foot. A filed value is one number for the whole job on one permit, often many square feet plus the work around them, and the Miami file does not record how many each job covered, so we can't turn $16,250 into a price per square foot.

Do bigger houses get bigger bills?

In the file, yes for the firms: those working on the upper third of homes by value usually file $21,750, the lower third $13,000. That is firms, not single jobs.

How these numbers are made

Source: City of Miami building permits (since 2014). The window is October 2023 through September 2026; a permit filed after that isn't here yet.

Usual is the middle permit: half were filed for less, half for more. Only permits with a filed value count; a value of $0 or none is left out.

The spread is approximate: we keep seven points of each firm's own range of filed values, not every permit, and pool them.
