Roof Replacement in Boca Raton
Most of the roofs we replace are within fifteen minutes of our office on NW 43rd Street in Boca Raton. We re-roof single-family homes, townhomes, and country club properties across Boca and the rest of our service area, in concrete and clay tile, standing seam metal, and shingle. Every job is permitted, inspected to current Florida Building Code, and closed out before we call it done.
Why Boca Raton Homeowners Are Re-Roofing Now
For a lot of homeowners, the trigger isn’t a leak. It’s an insurance renewal. Carriers across Florida look hard at roofs 15 years and older, and many Boca homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s are now past that mark. A new roof resets the age your insurer sees and can improve your wind mitigation report. Our guide to roof age and homeowners insurance explains what Florida law protects and when an inspection is enough.
Tile, Metal, or Shingle
Concrete and clay tile is the default across established Boca neighborhoods and is often required by the HOA. Standing seam metal is a common upgrade at replacement for homeowners planning to stay. Shingle still makes sense on homes that were framed for it and in communities that allow it. See tile vs. shingle for the tradeoffs.
How a Caldwell Re-Roof Works
- Inspection and written quote. We inspect the roof and give you a firm, written quote, not a number over the phone.
- Approvals. HOA or architectural review where your community requires it, then the permit, pulled under our license.
- Tear-off and deck inspection. The old roof comes off and damaged sheathing is replaced.
- Code upgrades and dry-in. The deck is re-nailed to current code and the underlayment goes down, with inspections at each stage.
- New roof, final inspection, cleanup. We install the new roof, pass final inspection, close the permit, and clean up.

Roof Replacement FAQ
How much does a roof replacement cost in Boca Raton?
It depends on the roofing material (tile, shingle, or metal), roof pitch and size, how many layers of tear-off are involved, the condition of the deck once the old roof comes off, and permit requirements. We provide a firm, written quote after an on-site assessment rather than a one-size number.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof?
Yes. Every re-roof in our service area requires a permit through the local building department, a Notice of Commencement where required, and a final inspection before the permit closes. Broward County cities like Deerfield Beach and Coral Springs fall under stricter High Velocity Hurricane Zone standards than most of Palm Beach County. We pull and manage the permit on every job.
Should I repair my roof or replace it?
It depends on how much of the roof is affected and what current code allows. Florida changed its 25 percent repair rule in 2022, and the answer now depends partly on which code edition your roof was built to. We inspect first and tell you plainly which side of that line your roof is on.
How long does a re-roof take?
The installation itself is often a matter of days to a couple of weeks depending on size and material, but inspections, HOA approval, and material lead times add to the overall schedule.
Will a new roof lower my insurance?
It often helps. A new roof built to current code can improve your wind mitigation report and resets the roof age your insurer sees, though every carrier prices differently.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roof replacement cost?
Cost depends on the variables that move price on any job in this service area: roofing material (tile, shingle, or metal), roof pitch and size, how many layers of tear-off are involved, the condition of the deck once the old roof comes off, and permit timing with the local building department. Because of that range, Caldwell provides a firm, written quote after an on-site assessment rather than a one-size number.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof?
Yes. Every re-roof across Caldwell’s service area requires a permit through the local building department before work starts, a Notice of Commencement on file, and a final inspection before the permit closes. Requirements and timelines vary by city and county: Broward County cities fall under stricter High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standards than most of Palm Beach County. Caldwell pulls and manages the permit as part of every job.
Should I repair my roof or replace it?
It depends on how much of the roofing system is affected and what current code allows. Florida Building Code limits how much of an existing roof can be repaired before the whole system has to be brought up to current code, once damage or wear crosses that line, repair isn’t a legal option anymore, only replacement is. Caldwell inspects first and tells homeowners plainly which side of that line their roof is on before recommending either option.
