Why Miami homes get this: HVHZ code requires impact-rated underlayment, secondary water barriers, and engineered tie-downs on every roof in Miami-Dade and Broward — replacement projects cost 40–60% more than non-HVHZ Florida due to product approval (NOA) and inspection requirements. Hurricane events generate multi-year backlogs; roofs older than 15 years frequently fail insurance inspections, forcing premature replacement.
