ROOFING IN West Palm Beach

Yes. We maintain relationships with specialty tile suppliers who stock the profiles commonly used in WPB historic districts. For discontinued profiles, we source the closest available match and present it for your approval and Historic Preservation Board review before any work begins. Period-appropriate materials are non-negotiable in these neighborhoods.

West Palm Beach has its own Building Division that processes roofing permits for properties within city limits. The permit requirements follow Florida Building Code plus local amendments for hurricane and flood protection. We handle the full permit process including application, plan review, and final inspection coordination.

Salt air corrodes standard galvanized fasteners, flashings, and metal components in 8-12 years. Properties east of I-95 in WPB require marine-grade stainless steel hardware and salt-rated flashings. This is a material specification issue, not an optional upgrade. We price coastal and inland projects differently based on actual exposure.

Yes. DR Construction & Roofing serves Broward County homeowners and businesses with roof repair, full roof replacement, tile roofing, shingle roofing, metal roofing, flat roofing, and commercial roof service.

Most Florida homeowners insurance policies cover hurricane and storm damage to your roof. The key is proper documentation and timely filing. We help with the insurance process — documenting the damage and making sure your claim is submitted correctly.

Yes. Broward County, Palm Beach County, and Miami-Dade County all require a permit for roof replacement. As a licensed contractor (CGC 1507284, CCC 1328855), we handle all permitting and inspections as part of our service. You don't need to visit any government office.

The 25% rule now applies only to older roofs. If 25% or more of a roof built before the 2007 Florida Building Code is repaired or replaced within 12 months, the whole roof must be brought up to current code. Since 2022 (Senate Bill 4-D), a roof built, repaired or replaced to the 2007 code or later is exempt: only the section being repaired has to meet current code. We check which applies to your roof before quoting.

Late fall through early spring (November to March) is typically the best time for roof replacement in Florida. Less rain, lower humidity, and contractors are less busy after hurricane season, which can mean more competitive pricing and faster scheduling.

Yes. A deposit is required to schedule your project and secure materials. The exact amount is itemized in your written contract before any work begins. Typical payment structure is a deposit at signing, a progress payment when materials arrive, and the balance at completion.
