    Tile roof replacement in Lake Worth Beach

    Lake Worth Beach is where Molsbee Roofing lives. Our yard is here, our crews start their mornings here, and we have been replacing tile roofs on these streets since 1975, so this page can be more specific than most. The city's tile roofs fall into three groups. The historic cottages and bungalows of College Park and the downtown blocks around Lake Avenue and Lucerne Avenue carry clay barrel and early concrete tile from the nineteen-twenties on plank sheathing, under a Historic Preservation Board that reviews any visible change before the city issues a permit. The postwar streets of North Lake Worth, Blackwell Park and Lakeside Palms carry concrete tile laid over felt that has now spent decades in an attic and cracks at the laps, so a block re-roofed together needs re-roofing together. And along the Intracoastal at Harbor Estates, Bella Vista Estates and Indigo Waters the roofs sit in salt air off the lagoon, where the tile lasts and the galvanized valley liners, drip edge and cap nails under it rust to lace. Molsbee Roofing is a family business working Palm Beach County, Jupiter to Boca Raton, from this town, and a Lake Worth Beach tile re-roof runs in a fixed order. Historic review or association approval where the address carries it; then the City of Lake Worth Beach permit; then the roof: old tile stripped and sorted, with sound clay saved for the hips and ridges on the historic houses; sheathing walked board by board, because on a College Park bungalow it may be plank, and rot cut out; new self-adhered underlayment lapped and rolled; valleys lined in stainless or copper along the water; tile 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 sheathing and the metal, and hands you an itemized scope with the price.

    What it costs

    Tile is the top end of what a full roof costs in Palm Beach County: heavy material, slower work, and the underlayment beneath it carries much of the price. We measure and write the number down.

    College Park and downtown: the preservation board comes first

    In College Park and the historic downtown blocks a visible change to a roof needs a certificate of appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Board before the City of Lake Worth Beach issues a permit. Clay barrel replaced with clay barrel in a sympathetic blend is the usual approval; a switch to a different profile or material is the usual refusal. We assemble the application with samples and photographs, salvage sound original clay for the slopes the street sees, and put the review weeks into the written schedule. We have done this on our own streets for a long time.

    Plank sheathing under a nineteen-twenties roof

    Lift the tile on a College Park or Lake Worth Town bungalow and the deck is often boards, not plywood, with a century of small leaks behind them. That is the biggest unknown on a historic re-roof, and it is why our itemized scope carries a deck allowance based on what the roofer found in the attic and at the eaves. Soft boards are replaced, gaps are sheathed where the underlayment needs a continuous surface, and the whole deck is photographed before the new self-adhered underlayment goes down.

    Harbor Estates and the lagoon side: metal before tile

    At Harbor Estates, Bella Vista Estates and Indigo Waters the Intracoastal is at the back door and the tile is the least of the worries. Galvanized valley liners, plain drip edge and steel cap nails rust to lace in lagoon air under tile that looks new from the seawall. A lagoon-side re-roof in Lake Worth Beach is therefore a metal specification finished in tile: stainless or copper valleys, stainless drip edge and cap screws, sealed edge metal, stainless or coated fasteners for every tile.

    What moves the price of a Lake Worth Beach tile roof

    Area and pitch first; the bungalows are small and the Intracoastal houses are not. Clay barrel versus concrete, and blended or salvaged clay above both. Plank sheathing and the deck allowance on the historic streets. Valleys, chimneys and dormers, each of them flashing and labor. Stainless or copper along the water. Tile is the top rung of a full roof in this county, and we quote a Lake Worth Beach roof the way we quote every other one, from a measurement, even in the town we know best.
