Tile roof replacement in Boynton Beach

Boynton Beach searches for Spanish roof tile by name, which tells you what its roofs look like: the S-profile barrel that covers Chapel Hill, Mission Hill and the Lake Eden neighborhoods around the lake, the concrete tile of Forest Hills and the newer streets toward Congress Avenue, and the clay on the older homes near Ocean Avenue and the Intracoastal at Boynton Isles and Coquina Cove in 33435 and 33426. Which tile matters less than what is under it. On the water at Boynton Isles and Coquina Cove, and anywhere the Inlet's salt reaches, the galvanized valley liners, drip edge and cap nails rust to lace while the tile looks new. Inland at Lake Eden, the Hills at Lake Eden, Chapel Hill and Mission Hill, the felt under the tile has spent decades in an attic and cracks at the laps, so streets built together stain ceilings together. Molsbee Roofing has been a family business since 1975, based a few minutes up the road in Lake Worth Beach and working Palm Beach County, Jupiter to Boca Raton, and Boynton Beach gives us steady work; we have done about a dozen roofs here since spring. A tile re-roof here starts with the association where one exists, then the City of Boynton Beach permit, then the roof: old tile stripped and sorted, with sound barrel saved for hips and ridges; plywood walked sheet by sheet and rot and salt-eaten fascia cut out; new self-adhered underlayment lapped and rolled; valleys lined in stainless or copper on the water; Spanish S-tile, flat concrete or clay loaded, blended and laid to the county's wind-code attachment; caps bedded and screwed; city inspections at dry-in and final. Free roof inspections: a roofer lifts tile at the suspect laps, photographs the felt, the deck and the metal, and hands you an itemized scope with the price. Financing options are explained at the inspection if you ask. Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 561-318-8624.
