Brickell is mostly condo towers and office buildings, with older single-family homes and low-rise buildings in The Roads. The most common roofs are commercial flat systems (TPO, modified bitumen, fluid-applied) on buildings and tile or flat roofs on homes in The Roads. Oscar works with homeowners across Brickell, including Brickell Key, The Roads, Brickell Avenue and Simpson Park.
Brickell also has many commercial and warehouse roofs. For those, compare bids on the same scope: layers to remove, insulation, membrane thickness and warranty length.
Coastal exposure in Brickell means higher wind loads and more corrosion. Quotes should specify Miami-Dade NOA-approved products suited for the coast, not just the cheapest approved option.
For Brickell condo buildings, the association—not individual owners—pays for the roof, usually from reserves or a special assessment. Boards should compare bids with identical specs before voting.
Roof permits in Brickell are issued by the City of Miami Building Department. All of Miami-Dade County is in Florida's High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), so every roofing product needs a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) and the job is inspected during and after installation. The permit fee and inspections should be included in every quote.
A lower price only means something if the quotes cover the same work. Check that every quote spells out:

Make sure every quote covers the same scope: material and brand, underlayment type, tear-off of all layers, wood replacement included and price per extra unit, permit and inspections, cleanup, warranty and payment schedule. Then compare price.
Usually the association, from reserves or a special assessment, because the roof is a common element. Check your condo declaration to be sure.
