South Palm Beach keeps it cozy, quiet streets, gorgeous ocean views, and roofs that see more salt than a margarita rim. Tile is perfect for the look and climate, but remember: tiles shed water; the underlayment keeps it out of your living room. Our job is to keep both in top shape, fix issues before storms do, and treat your driveway like… a driveway, not a warehouse.

Why South Palm Beach Roofs Need a Local Plan
Salt + wind, even on blue-sky days. Onshore breezes sneak water under tile courses and age underlayment faster than expected. Your compact lots need tidy staging, we work clean and HOA-friendly so your neighbors keep waving, not glaring.
Mixed roof profiles are everywhere here. Single-story gems and multi-level designs both love valleys, hips, and decorative wall transitions. Translation: a quick, photo-documented inspection now saves drywall (and sanity) later.
The Issues We Fix Most Here
Cracked or slipped tiles , Heat expansion and gusts nudge tiles, creating pathways for wind-driven rain.
Valley buildup , Palms and oaks feed valleys; when a squall hits, water rides sideways under tiles.
Wall & edge flashing gaps , Tiny breaks behind stucco or at parapets/skylights lead to slow leaks with dramatic timing.
Underlayment fatigue , The membrane beneath can get tired long before the tiles look “old.”
Ridge/hip looseness , First stop for coastal wind mischief; we check them every visit.
Repair vs. Replacement (We bring photos, not pressure)
Repair is right when the problem is localized (one valley, a slipped course, a single flashing point) and underlayment test spots are healthy.
Replacement makes sense when leaks pop up in multiple zones, or test spots reveal brittleness, tears at valleys/penetrations, or saturation.
You’ll get a clean photo report with a side-by-side: Repair vs. Replacement, pros/cons, realistic timeline, and materials. No scare tactics, just evidence and options.
What Our Roof Inspection Includes (South Palm Beach Edition)
• Exterior scan (ground + roof) for displaced tiles, valley debris, and edge/penetration risks
• Targeted test areas, valleys, wall transitions, skylight curbs, vents, to assess underlayment without unnecessary disturbance
• Attic/moisture checks (where accessible) to confirm leak pathways
• Prioritized recommendations with photos (urgent → can-wait)
• Pre-storm checklist if hurricane season’s on the calendar (it always is)

Underlayment: The Unsung Waterproof Layer
Tiles are the armor; underlayment is the seal. We evaluate:
• Material & age (felt vs. peel-and-stick)
• High-risk points (valleys, hips/ridges, skylight curbs, chimneys)
• Edge metal & returns (critical against uplift and wind-driven rain)
• Penetration flashings (vents/stacks) that loosen in salty air
If it’s time, we can replace underlayment beneath your existing tile, preserving your home’s look while restoring watertightness.
Hurricane Prep & Wind-Mitigation (Credits May Apply)
• Verify edge metal + fasteners (coastal MVPs)
• Check ridge/hip securement and decking attachment cues
• Clear valleys/gutters for free-flow
• Confirm wall/kick-out flashings at stucco transitions
• Provide wind-mitigation guidance, how to document features your insurer wants
You walk away with photos and a plan you can actually use.
Pricing & Timelines (Directionally What Neighbors See)
Leak/repair visits: Scope-based (valley clear + re-lay, tile swap, flashing repair). Transparent pricing after diagnostics, no “mystery” add-ons.
Underlayment replacement: Depends on roof size, access, tile profile, and code details. We outline staging → protection → re-install with a realistic schedule.
Inspections: Diagnostic fees are often credited toward approved repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you replace underlayment and re-use my tile?
Often, yes. We stage the existing tile, replace the membrane, and re-install to preserve curb appeal.
How often should South Palm Beach roofs be inspected?
Annually: and before hurricane season. Coastal wind accelerates wear at edges, ridges, and valleys.
Do wind-mitigation inspections help with premiums?
They can: documentation of fasteners, decking, and edges may support credits. Check with your insurer.
Why do leaks appear after short, windy showers?
Wind pushes water under the tile field. If valleys are clogged or flashing has gaps, it reaches the underlayment quickly.
