Where Andrew's strongest winds struck
The National Hurricane Center cites Hurricane Andrew's Category 5 winds on coastal portions of Cutler Ridge in 1992, and the town's history notes the most damaging eyewall winds peaked over the area. The Florida Building Commission credits the storm with exposing the weaknesses that led to a single statewide building code.
Product approvals go in with the permit
Cutler Bay's re-roofing checklist asks for the contractor's roofing package and two copies of the Notice of Acceptance, the Miami-Dade product approval, for the roofing system. Ask your contractor which approved system they are proposing before you sign.
Owner-builder re-roofs are limited
Under the town's checklist, only shingle and peel-and-stick roofs may be permitted as owner-builder work. Tile and other systems need a contractor on the permit.
