Roofing in West Palm Beach, FL

West Palm Beach is the county seat and the most varied roof market on the mainland — 1920s Mediterranean Revival and frame-vernacular bungalows in El Cid, Old Northwood, and Flamingo Park; post-war CBS ranches through the central neighborhoods; and the glass-and-stucco condo towers along Flagler Drive and the lagoon downtown. That range means a West Palm Beach roof might be barrel tile a historic board wants kept in character, a standing-seam metal roof on a coastal rebuild, or a flat modified-bitumen or TPO system on a mid-century home. We roof all of them to Florida’s high-wind code and pull the city permit for each.

From Clematis Street and Rosemary Square to the historic districts of El Cid and Old Northwood and the waterfront along Flagler Drive, West Palm packs a century of housing into a compact grid. The bungalows often still wear original clay tile or tired three-tab shingle; the central ranches are full of flat and low-slope roofs near the end of their life; and the shoreline keeps going vertical. Fronting the Intracoastal rather than the open ocean, the city sees real wind exposure and the salt haze that drifts off the lagoon, so we match the system to the home — tile and metal where it shows, and properly detailed flat-roof assemblies where it doesn’t.
