Fast, Reliable Roofing Company Across Palm Beach
Most roofing work in Palm Beach comes down to two questions: will this roof hold through the next hurricane season, and will the Architectural Commission approve the materials before we even start. We answer both before a single tile comes off. Brennan Roofing Co West Palm Beach handles roofing installation, repair, and Roof Inspection in Palm Beach, with crews who know the island’s review process and its salt-air failure points. Call (728) 203-3066 for a written quote before any work begins.
Why Brennan Roofing Co West Palm Beach Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Roofing Company
Homeowners in Palm Beach don’t hand their roof to just anyone. The island has a way of exposing sloppy work within two seasons. We’ve built our local reputation on written pricing that doesn’t move, technicians who show up in uniform with background checks already completed, and a one-year written guarantee on every repair and installation.
Our crews work Palm Beach neighborhoods from the North End to the Estate Section regularly, so we understand what the Palm Beach Architectural Commission expects and how to build a submittal that passes the first time. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our South Florida office, but the crews on your roof live and work here locally. When a barrel tile cracks on Via Vizcaya or a flat roof ponding issue shows up on a mid-century ranch off South Ocean Boulevard, we’re close enough to see it quickly and quote it honestly.
Brennan Roofing is an independently owned member of the Garrison Partners family, founded in 2000. Travis Oakley leads our team, and he holds every job to The Garrison Standard: written price in hand before work starts, background-checked uniformed technicians, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If a repair fails within one year, we come back at no charge.

Metal Roof Installation in Palm Beach
Metal roofing in Palm Beach can be a smart move when the Architectural Commission approves it. Standing-seam panels in a low-glare finish hold up well against salt air and hurricane-force wind, but the island’s review standards are specific. A metal roof on a 1920s Mediterranean Revival estate may be rejected outright if the profile or color doesn’t fit the district’s character. On newer construction or non-contributing structures, a properly specified metal roof is often the best long-term answer for coastal exposure.
For a typical Palm Beach home, a standing-seam metal roof runs $18 to $32 per square foot installed, depending on panel gauge, seam profile, and the condition of the existing decking. That includes tear-off, underlayment, and flashing work. It’s a higher upfront cost than tile or shingle, but on the island it can mean fewer repairs over a 40-year service life.
Coastal-Grade Fasteners and Battens
The hidden difference in a Palm Beach metal roof is what’s under the panels. We specify stainless steel fasteners and aluminum or stainless battens on every coastal job. Galvanized hardware simply doesn’t hold up to decades of salt spray. On a recent Seabreeze Avenue project, our crew lifted 1990s-era metal panels and found the galvanized clips had rusted through completely. The panels looked fine from the ground, but they were one storm away from lifting off.
Approval-Ready Submittals
Before any metal roof goes on in Palm Beach, the Architectural Commission needs specifics: panel profile, color sample, finish type, and often a mock-up photo. We compile that packet for you and handle the filing. You never have to figure out which form goes where or what the commission means by “non-reflective natural finish.” We’ve been through it enough times to know what passes.
Residential Roofing in Palm Beach
Residential roofing in Palm Beach covers everything from a small leak repair on a North End bungalow to a full replacement on a South End estate. The housing stock here is different from anywhere across the bridge. Many homes are 1920s Mediterranean Revival with original tongue-and-groove decking. Others are mid-century flat-roof ranches. Newer luxury condos have multi-story low-slope sections that need careful membrane detailing. Each requires a different approach, and a crew that only knows asphalt shingles will struggle on the island.
A full residential roof replacement in Palm Beach typically runs $16,000 to $70,000 or more, depending on material, roof complexity, and whether the home sits in a landmarked district requiring custom tile colors. Repairs are usually $450 to $2,500. We put the exact number in writing before work begins, and that number does not change at the door.
Barrel Tile and Mediterranean Profiles
Barrel tile is the dominant look on Palm Beach estates, and matching existing color and profile matters enormously. The Architectural Commission keeps records of approved colors from decades past. If your 1998 Boral barrel tiles need replacement, we can source the matching profile and submit the same specification the commission already approved. On Seabreeze Avenue, we lifted and reset a 1920s oceanfront barrel-tile roof after finding corroded metal battens under the tiles from decades of salt spray. We replaced the battens with stainless steel, installed a high-temperature self-adhered ice and water shield over the original tongue-and-groove decking, and re-laid the existing custom-colored Boral tiles in the same profile the Architectural Commission had approved in 1998.
Flat and Low-Slope Roofing
Mid-century homes on the island often have true flat roofs with built-up or modified bitumen systems. These roofs fail differently than pitched tile. Ponding water, failed seams at parapet walls, and drain clogs from palm debris are the usual culprits. We inspect the entire membrane, not just the visible crack, and quote the repair so you know if you need a patch or a full overlay.
Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
Our Roofing Company team installs materials from CertainTeed, Owens Corning, and IKO, among others. For Palm Beach tile work, we lean on Boral and custom barrel-tile sources that match the Architectural Commission’s approved palette. Parts availability matters on the island. We keep a local supply chain for common tile profiles, underlayment, and stainless fasteners, so a repair job doesn’t stall for two weeks waiting on a shipment. If your home carries a specific manufacturer warranty, we can maintain it with proper installation and documentation.

AfterCommon Roofing Company Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Corroded battens under barrel tiles. Salt spray eats galvanized metal within a few hurricane seasons. The tiles look fine from the street, but underneath they’re sliding because the support system is gone. We find this constantly on older oceanfront homes.
- Architectural Commission rejection on tile color. A homeowner picks a “standard” terra cotta that isn’t on the approved palette for their district. Palm Beach has no such aesthetic review across the bridge in West Palm Beach, so a tile job that passes there can be denied here. We check the palette before you order anything.
- UV breakdown on flat roof membranes. The subtropical sun damages exposed modified bitumen and TPO seams faster than manufacturers’ general timelines suggest. A roof that’s rated for 20 years may show cracking at 12 in direct island sun. We recommend UV-stable coatings and regular inspections.
- Improper flashing at parapet and chimney transitions. Coastal wind drives rain sideways. Standard step flashing that works inland fails on Palm Beach oceanfront walls. We use through-wall flashing and copper or stainless details at every transition.
Pricing for Roofing Company in Palm Beach, FL
Roof pricing in Palm Beach runs higher than most South Florida markets because of the review process, the cost of custom tile colors, and the need for stainless hardware throughout. Here are honest ballpark ranges:
- Minor roof repair: $450 to $1,200
- Tile replacement (scattered, 20 to 50 tiles): $800 to $2,500
- Flat roof membrane patch: $900 to $3,000
- Full barrel tile replacement: $22,000 to $70,000+
- Metal roof installation (standing seam): $18 to $32 per square foot
- Flat roof full replacement: $12 to $18 per square foot
What moves the number? Tear-off labor, the condition of the decking underneath, the number of penetrations and flashing points, and whether the commission requires a custom color match. We give you a line-item written quote before work begins. Call (728) 203-3066 to schedule a free estimate.

FAQs About Roofing Company in Palm Beach
Yes. Any alteration to a roof visible from the street requires Architectural Commission review in Palm Beach, even if the material is identical to what’s already there. The submittal must specify the exact profile, color, and finish. If your home is a contributing structure in a landmarked district, the review is mandatory regardless of visibility. We prepare and file that submittal for you. Call (728) 203-3066 and we’ll confirm what your specific property needs before you spend a dollar on materials.
Plan for four to eight weeks of review time on top of the actual roofing work. The commission meets on a set monthly calendar, and a complete submittal must be filed in advance of the meeting date. Incomplete submittals get deferred to the next month, which is why a “standard” tile color that’s not on the approved palette can delay you by 30 to 60 days. We file early, check the palette before ordering, and schedule the tear-off only after written approval is issued.
That’s almost always a corroded batten problem, not a tile problem. The metal strips under the tiles rust from salt air, sag, and leave tiles unsupported along the lower courses. Then walking pressure or wind lift cracks them. We replace the battens with stainless steel and reset the tiles. A patch job that just swaps cracked tiles will fail again within a year or two because the support system beneath them is still compromised.
Nor’easters drive wind from the northeast, which exposes seams and parapet flashing on flat roofs that normally sit protected during summer convection storms. The leak is likely at a seam direction change or a parapet wall cap. We inspect the whole membrane under simulated conditions where possible, reseal and flash the affected transitions, and give you a written repair guarantee. If the membrane is past its useful life, we’ll tell you with a straight number.
Realistically, almost never on a contributing landmark. The Architectural Commission protects the Mediterranean Revival character of the island, and standing-seam metal reads as a different architectural language. On non-contributing structures or newer homes, metal is often approvable with the right low-glare finish and panel profile. For landmarked properties, our recommendation is almost always a matching barrel tile system with upgraded stainless battens and modern underlayment, which gives you the durability without the commission fight.
