Roof replacement
A new roof starts below the surface. We look at the decking, underlayment, flashing and ventilation alongside the roof covering, and explain what is included in a proposal and how hidden damage is priced.

Roofing, done the Florida way.
From a single repair to a full replacement, here is what we cover for Palm Beach County roofs.
Leaks & storm damage
A ceiling stain does not always sit directly below the source of a leak. Roof valleys, wall connections and penetrations all get checked. Tell us when you first noticed the problem — photos help us explain the repair before we're on the roof.
Tile & metal roofing
The right choice depends on your home, roof structure and location. For tile, we look at the underlayment as well as the tiles. For metal, we talk through the panel system, fasteners and finish for coastal, salt-air exposure.
Flashing & drainage
Details around skylights, vents, chimneys and adjoining walls matter as much as the main roof surface. Gutters, downspouts and low-slope sections are part of the conversation so water has a clear path off the roof.
Clarity comes first
What a good roofing proposal answers.
An explained diagnosis
Ask where the problem starts, what evidence supports the diagnosis and whether a targeted repair is a reasonable option.
A written scope
Compare materials, preparation, disposal and allowances. Two prices are only comparable when they cover the same work.
Clear responsibilities
Establish who handles permits, inspections, property protection and cleanup before agreeing to a schedule.
Warranty details
Separate the material warranty from the workmanship terms. Ask what is covered, what is excluded and who handles a claim.
Built around your home
Know your roof.
Three roof coverings. Different details to get right.
The detail beneath the tile
Tile roofing
A cracked or slipped tile is only part of the picture. Ask about the underlayment, attachment and flashing before deciding between spot repairs and a larger project.
A complete roof system
Metal roofing
Look beyond the panel color. Seams, fasteners, penetrations and finish all matter — and in Palm Beach County's wind-borne debris region, products need current Florida Product Approval, not just a manufacturer spec sheet.
More than the top layer
Shingle roofing
Compare the proposed shingles together with underlayment, starter strips, edge details and ventilation. Ask how each part fits the full installation.
From first question to a clear plan
Take it one step at a time.
Describe the roof
Have your town, roof type and approximate age ready. Explain whether you are planning ahead or dealing with a recent problem.
Identify the issue
Note stains, missing material or changes after a storm. Share photos taken from a safe location; leave roof access to a professional.
Compare the scope
Request a written explanation of repair or replacement options, materials, exclusions and any allowance for concealed damage.
Plan the work
Confirm permits, inspections, access, weather protection and cleanup with your chosen contractor before the project starts.
Local context
Palm Beach County.
Coast to inland.
From Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens to West Palm Beach, Wellington, Lake Worth Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach and Boca Raton, start with the conditions at your own property.
Palm Beach County sits in Florida's wind-borne debris region, with some of the highest coastal design wind speeds outside Miami-Dade and Broward's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Salt air, summer storms and a low-slope addition can all raise different roofing questions — your address, roof design and existing materials help define a useful conversation.
Plan for weather
Ask how exposed sections will be protected during the work and what happens if the weather changes. Include roof preparation in your household’s storm planning.

A few useful answers
Before you
make the call.
Does a leaking roof always need replacing?
Not necessarily. A localized flashing problem may call for a different solution than widespread deterioration. The condition of the roof covering, underlayment and decking all matter. Ask for evidence of the cause and an explanation of both repair and replacement options.
Which roof material is right for a Palm Beach County home?
There is no single answer for every property. Start with your existing roof structure, slope, location, appearance preferences and budget. Compare complete tile, metal or shingle systems, and ask a qualified contractor to explain which options suit your specific home.
Who handles roofing permits?
Confirm the permitting authority for the property address and agree in writing who will handle the application and inspections. Palm Beach County’s Permit Center serves unincorporated areas; for a property inside a municipality, check with the relevant local building department.
How much does a roof replacement cost?
A useful price needs a defined scope. Roof size and shape, access, material choice, tear-off, decking repairs and flashing can all affect the total. Compare itemized written estimates and ask how any additional work will be approved and priced.
What should I have ready before a roofing call?
Your town or ZIP code, roof material, approximate roof age and a short description of the issue are a helpful start. Mention when it began, whether it changes during rain and any previous repairs. Photos from the ground or inside the home can help explain what you have noticed.
Can I book an inspection through this website?
This website does not currently accept inspection bookings. A public contact number has not yet been added; there is no online form or booking service.
