AfterFast, Reliable Roofing Across Boca Del Mar
You need a roofer who understands that homes in Boca Del Mar answer to Palm Beach County, not the City of Boca Raton. That distinction changes permits, inspections, material specs, and the final price. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, owner-operated since 1998, and we’ve handled enough roofs in the 33433 ZIP to know that the difference between a clean job and a stalled one here often comes down to whether your contractor understands unincorporated county rules. Call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll scope it right the first time.
Boca Del Mar was built out in the 1970s and 1980s. That means CBS block walls, flat or low-slope roofs, and a whole inventory of original tie-beam connections that predate today’s wind-load code. Roof work here isn’t just tearing off shingles. It’s navigating a hurricane-hardening checklist that plenty of out-of-area crews have never seen. We have.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Boca Del Mar’s Preferred Roofing Company
We’re the name on the truck, not a franchise line. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work in Boca Del Mar. When you call, a live person answers. When you want to know who’s showing up, we’ll tell you. And when a job is done, it’s backed by our written 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not right, one call brings Tom back to make it right.
We know the difference between a Boca Del Mar villa with a low-slope roof over Camino Real and a CBS ranch near the western edge of 33433. We also know that your roofer needs to schedule through Palm Beach County’s portal, not Boca Raton’s building department. That single fact has stalled more re-roofs out here than any storm. We plan around it from day one.
We’ve earned our place on this side of the county by pulling permits on every eligible job and getting inspections signed before we call the work finished. Our prices come in writing. Any change to scope arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves. Ask anyone on your street, or look up the license number yourself.
Our Roofing Services in Boca Del Mar
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Boca Del Mar runs from simple shingle or tile replacement to structural fixes around aging flat-roof penetrations. The biggest variable we see out here is the age of the roof’s original components. A leak around a 1980s skylight is rarely just the flashing: it’s often the original single-pane unit and its underperforming tie-in. We scope the actual condition before we quote. Roof repair in Boca Del Mar typically runs $400-$1800 depending on whether we’re replacing a few shingles or opening up a flat-roof section and addressing connectors at the same time.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Most full replacements in Boca Del Mar happen on CBS homes whose original roofing has reached the end of its service life. The scope isn’t just new decking and new covering. On many of these jobs, the county inspector will flag undersized roof-to-wall connectors the moment the old roof comes off. We plan for that retrofit in the first quote rather than surprising you with a change order later. Roof replacement in Boca Del Mar typically runs $8000-$20000, with the higher end reflecting tie-beam retrofits and impact-rated components.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal is one of the smartest upgrades for Boca Del Mar’s flat and low-slope roofs. It carries the wind-load performance the HVHZ demands and it sheds rain far better than aging shingles on a near-flat pitch. We install standing seam as a complete system: panels, underlayment, fasteners, and the roof-to-wall connection details that satisfy Palm Beach County inspectors. Standing seam metal roof installation in Boca Del Mar typically runs $15000-$40000.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile and flat concrete tile cover a good share of the villas and custom homes tucked into Boca Del Mar’s neighborhoods. Tile repair here isn’t just swapping a cracked barrel. The original underlayment beneath 1980s tile is often failed or brittle, and the county’s HVHZ fastening schedule demands a specific attachment method. We evaluate the tile and what’s under it before quoting. Tile roof repair in Boca Del Mar typically runs $600-$2500, depending on whether we’re replacing a few barrels or opening a section to address underlayment.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Del Mar
We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. That means GAF shingles and underlayment systems, the kind that carry documented HVHZ approvals and fastening schedules Palm Beach County inspectors recognize. If you’re keeping a tile profile, we source and install matching barrel tile from established manufacturers. Parts and materials for the most common Boca Del Mar roof systems are stocked locally, which keeps supply runs short and jobs moving.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Boca Del Mar Homes
- Undersized tie-beam connections. The 1970s and 1980s CBS homes across Boca Del Mar were built before current wind-load codes. Once a roof is opened, the county inspector often requires roof-to-wall straps the original builder never installed. We check for this before we quote, not after the inspector calls it out.
- Flat-roof skylight failures. Skylights on low-slope roofs collect water when original flashing and seals degrade. Worse, the original single-pane aluminum units no longer meet impact standards. Repair usually means replacement, and that changes the scope and the price.
- Water intrusion around parapets and curbs. The near-flat profiles on many Boca Del Mar villas funnel water into any low point. Parapet flashing and roof curbs fail first. We trace leaks to the penetration, not the visible stain on the ceiling.
- Underlayment failure under tile. Tile roofs from the 1980s often fail because the underlayment beneath them has broken down, not because the tiles themselves are worn out. A tile repair that ignores the underlayment won’t last two seasons here.

FAQs - Roofing in Boca Del Mar
Yes, you need a Palm Beach County permit. Boca Del Mar is unincorporated, so roof permits are issued by Palm Beach County, not the City of Boca Raton. A contractor who files through Boca Raton’s portal will stall the job. We file through the county every time, and we schedule county inspections from the start. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll confirm the exact permit path for your roof before work begins.
Likely yes. Once the roof is opened, the county inspector checks the roof-to-wall connectors against the current high-velocity hurricane zone schedule. Most 1980s CBS homes in Boca Del Mar need connector retrofits and impact-rated openings before the drywall goes back. We scope those items in the first written estimate so the number you approve is the number you pay. Call us at (877) 610-1318 for a line-item breakdown.
For roof work specifically, the shallow water table has less direct impact than it does on below-grade projects like additions. But if scuppers or downspouts discharge at grade, a 2-4 foot water table means grading and drainage matter more than people expect. We check discharge points on every roof we replace out here. If you’re also planning an addition or exterior work, that’s a separate conversation, and we’ll tell you honestly where the water table changes your scope.
In most cases, yes. The villa’s CBS block walls are sturdy. What needs upgrading is the roof-to-wall connection, not the structure itself. We add the proper tie-downs, install the standing seam system, and the county signs off. The result is a roof that’s far stronger than what the original builder put on. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate on a standing seam system for your villa.
First, tarp the damaged area to stop water intrusion. If you can’t do that safely, call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll get a tarp up fast. Document everything with photos. Then don’t start permanent repairs until a permit is filed. In Boca Del Mar, that means Palm Beach County. We handle the emergency tarping and the permit path so the repair isn’t delayed by someone filing in the wrong jurisdiction. Estimates are free, and we answer the phone 24/7.
