AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Palm Beach
Roof replacement in Palm Beach typically runs between $14,000 and $45,000 for most homes, with historic Mizner-era estates and large oceanfront properties landing at the higher end. The final number depends on roof size, material, and whether your home must clear ARCOM review before permits are pulled. Call (561) 782-7525 for a free in-home measure and written line-item quote, and we’ll walk you through exactly what your Palm Beach roof needs to meet code and keep your insurance wind credits intact.
Palm Beach is not like roofing the mainland. The island is less than half a mile wide, with the Atlantic on one side and Lake Worth Lagoon on the other, and every home here sits in a High Velocity Hurricane Zone, or HVAC zone design commonly shortened to HVHZ. That single fact reshapes what materials get approved and what your quote has to include. We coordinate dispatch and scheduling from our Miami office and our crews serve Palm Beach directly, so when you call, you’re talking to someone who understands the island’s permitting reality, not a call center reading from a script.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Palm Beach
Full Roof Replacement
We tear off the existing roof to the deck, inspect sheathing for salt-air rot and wind-driven water damage, and rebuild the system from the deck up. On Palm Beach’s older homes, that inspection matters: decades of double-coast salt exposure corrodes fasteners and compromises decking even when the tile or shingle surface looks fine. We install new underlayment, secondary water barrier with taped seams, drip edge, flashing, and ventilation before the finished roof system goes on.
Tile Roof Installation
Clay and concrete tile roofs dominate Palm Beach’s Mediterranean Revival neighborhoods along South Ocean Boulevard and the mid-island streets. Tile is heavy, so before we install, we verify the existing truss system can carry the load under current code. If your home is on the historic registry, we work with ARCOM to match the original barrel-tile profile while upgrading to materials rated for large-missile impact. The old look stays; the wind rating goes from obsolete to current.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam metal is the most common choice we recommend when a Palm Beach homeowner wants a roof that will outlast the salt air. We specify open-fastener or hidden-fastener systems depending on roof slope and wind uplift requirements, and every metal panel carries Miami-Dade NOA approval matched to the HVHZ zone. On historic properties, ARCOM sometimes allows a metal profile only if it replicates the original material profile; we’ve done several South Ocean Boulevard estates where a custom standing-seam system preserved the barrel-tile silhouette.
Shingle Roof Installation
Architectural asphalt shingles remain a budget-conscious option on newer Palm Beach construction and secondary structures. We install only shingles with Miami-Dade NOA approval and a rated wind uplift that meets Palm Beach County HVHZ requirements. The important detail most homeowners miss is the underlayment and attachment upgrade; a cheap shingle quote often skips the high-temp peel-and-stick underlayment and leaves the old nailing pattern in place. That may pass on the mainland. It will not pass a wind-mitigation inspection on this island.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Mainland-rated roofs on an island wind zone. A contractor applies a system that passes mainland code but lacks Miami-Dade NOA for HVHZ. It fails ARCOM review on historic homes and voids insurance wind-mitigation credits on every home. Your quote must show the exact product approval number for each component.
- Salt-air corrosion from both coastlines. Palm Beach homes get Atlantic salt from the east and lagoon salt from the west. Pipe boots, fasteners, and flashing corrode in 7 to 12 years. Replacing only the visible roofing material while leaving corroded components underneath to cause leaks within one hurricane season is the single most common failure we see.
- ARCOM stop-work orders on historic properties. Installing a modern roof profile or material, like dimensional shingles or flat metal panels, on a designated historic home without ARCOM pre-approval triggers a stop-work order and removal at the homeowner’s expense. This does not happen on mainland Palm Beach County, but it happens monthly on the island.
- Soft decking hidden under old underlayment. Palm Beach’s wind-driven rain finds every compromised seam. We regularly find soft spots in the existing deck while tearing off a roof that looked perfectly fine from the ground. Spec your replacement to include a full deck inspection and sheathing replacement budget, not just a “per sheet if needed” line item that balloons midway through.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Palm Beach, FL
A full roof replacement in Palm Beach runs $14,000 to $45,000 for most homes. Small flat roofs and secondary structures fall below that range; large oceanfront estates with historically compliant tile or custom metal systems climb above it. Shingle roofs on a 2,000-square-foot home typically land around $16,000 to $24,000. Tile runs $24,000 to $38,000. Standing-seam metal, depending on profile and exposure, runs $28,000 to $45,000-plus. What moves the number most in Palm Beach is whether the property falls under ARCOM review, because custom profiles and monthly hearing timelines add cost and schedule. Roof size, deck condition, and the number of penetrations, from chimneys to skylights, move it next. Call (561) 782-7525 for an exact written quote. Estimates are free, and the number Ed puts on the estimate is the number on the invoice.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Palm Beach
Roof replacement in Palm Beach is priced by roof size, material, and code compliance, not by square footage alone. While whole-home packages on the windows and envelope side run $8,000 to $25,000-plus, the roof system itself falls within the ranges above. Palm Beach Impact Windows in this market generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with impact single-hung units at $900 to $1,800 and large or custom openings at $2,500 to $5,000. If you’re doing roof and impact windows together, as many Palm Beach homeowners do after a wind-mitigation inspection, we typically bundle the roof underlayment, window flashing, and door thresholds into one permitting package so the opening count matches the wind-load assumptions. Free in-home measure and a written line-item quote, no trip charge inside the home county, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans on qualifying work.
Florida Pays You Back
Palm Beach homeowners can stack several programs to offset a new roof. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and roof replacement tied to a documented wind-mitigation inspection qualifies in many cases. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, and the federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, typically $75 to $150, many insurers apply a windstorm premium credit averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion. Final numbers are set by the programs and your carrier, but the compliant roof is what unlocks them. A cheap quote that skips the documentation saves money on the front end and forfeits it on premium day.
One more thing worth saying plainly: impact windows beat hurricane shutters for the way Palm Beach homeowners actually live. Shutters only work if you’re home to hang them, and most island properties are full-time residences, not seasonal. Our Window Installation - Palm Beach team installs permanent impact-rated glazing that protects the envelope every day without panels to store or hardware to corrode. Big-box retail installs may quote a lower number, but a licensed impact specialist pulls the right permits, matches the product approval to each opening’s design pressure, and stands behind the install with a real person who answers the phone.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Palm Beach
In Palm Beach, because the island sits within the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, your new roof must meet Florida Building Code requirements for 180-plus mph winds, with every component carrying Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval matching the exact wind zone of your property. The underlayment, attachments, flashing, and the finished surface all need approval numbers, not just the visible material. Call (561) 782-7525 and we’ll verify your home’s design wind speed before quoting so you aren’t paying for a rating you don’t need, or worse, installing one below code.
If your home is not a designated historic property or in a historic district, ARCOM approval is not required for a like-for-like roof replacement that meets the Town of Palm Beach’s building code, and you can proceed with a standard building permit. That said, many mid-island homes built before 1940 carry historic designations that aren’t always obvious on the property record, so we verify status before quoting. If your home does require ARCOM review, the monthly hearing schedule adds three to four weeks to the timeline, and missing the submittal deadline pushes you another cycle.
Salt air from both the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Worth Lagoon corrodes exposed fasteners, pipe boots, flashing, and metal trim within 7 to 12 years, so a compliant replacement in Palm Beach must include corrosion-resistant or stainless fasteners, upgraded flashing, and a full inspection of the deck for fastener failure beneath the old roof. Most mainland roofs fail on this island not because the shingle or tile surface failed, but because the metal components underneath gave out first. We write the fastener spec into every line item so the next roof lasts toward the outer edge of its life and not the short end.
Yes, an impact-rated roof with documented Miami-Dade NOA compliance and a completed wind-mitigation inspection typically triggers a windstorm premium credit on Florida policies, with averages around 25% on the windstorm portion, though the exact amount depends on your insurer and your home’s overall mitigation profile. The credit only applies if the documentation is in order, so the cheap quote that skips the inspection paperwork costs you money every year you own the home. Call (561) 782-7525 and we’ll help you understand what your carrier needs before the roof goes on.
ARCOM pre-approval adds three to four weeks to the timeline on average, because the Architectural Commission meets once a month and the submittal must be complete by the published deadline before that meeting. On a historic Mizner-era home off South Ocean Boulevard, we front-load the ARCOM package with the existing profile documentation, proposed material samples, and Miami-Dade NOA numbers so the hearing goes quickly. Once ARCOM signs off, the building permit and construction proceed on a normal schedule.
For non-historic homes, we typically schedule within two to three weeks of your signed estimate, and custom materials like tile or standing-seam metal take four to six weeks to fabricate before crews arrive. Once your units and materials arrive, we install as fast as a single day for smaller roofs or a few days for larger estates. Call (561) 782-7525 for a current schedule and an exact timeline for your home.
Yes, we work across all of Palm Beach, from South Ocean Boulevard and the Estate Section to the North End, the Midtown district, and the streets around Worth Avenue, and our crews are fully equipped for the permitting and ARCOM requirements that apply wherever your home sits.
