Request your free inspection
Roof replacement in Lantana starts with a question the ZIP code cannot answer: is the house inside the town, or across the line in Hypoluxo, Manalapan or Atlantis? Once the parcel is confirmed, a new roof here means tearing off to the deck, re-nailing it, sealing a self-adhered secondary water barrier and fastening the covering for the 160 mph mainland band or the 170 mph island side.
The paper file goes in at Greynolds Circle, and each inspection is requested the afternoon before. Your free inspection ends in a written scope and price.
Molsbee Roofing has served Palm Beach County since 1975 from our shop in Lake Worth Beach, under Florida license CCC1327429.
The median Lantana house dates to 1975, and many of those roofs carry repairs made by several hands. One cracked pipe boot or a lifted wall flashing is still a repair.
Replacement makes sense when shingle is brittle across a slope, when the deck gives underfoot, or when the patches have grown large enough to bring the quarter-roof rule into play. We check the town's permit record for the last re-roof date, so the decision rests on the roof itself rather than the year the house went up.
Architectural shingle covers most of the older block houses in Old Town and Lantana Pines, and it is what their frames were built to carry. Tile and metal go where a house was built for them, and sound clay barrel tile can often be detached, given new underlayment and reset.
On Hypoluxo Island a metal roof is aluminum or a coastal-rated steel with stainless fasteners. Each covering has its own Lantana page, and the written price can set two of them side by side on the same roof.
The Town of Lantana has no online portal. The Building Division at 504 Greynolds Circle takes two paper copies plus one digital copy, in person or by email, with payment by cash or check only.
Inspections run 9 to 3 and are requested before 3 pm for the following day, so the tear-off is timed to have the deck and underlayment checked before they are covered. On a lagoon lot the town's flood-zone review comes early, and where an association governs the street, its letter comes before the town's stamp.
The old covering comes off, the deck is photographed, and any soft sheet or rotted board at an old porch tie-in is replaced as agreed in writing. Every sheet is re-nailed, the secondary water barrier goes down, and new drip edge, flashing and pipe collars are tied in before the first course.
Near the lagoon the edge metal and fasteners are specified for salt. The inspector signs off each stage in turn, and the dumpster and debris leave with us at the end.
For work in Lantana, confirm requirements with the building department responsible for the property and complete any required historic or HOA review before ordering materials or beginning work.
Lantana has no online permit portal. The town's Building Division at 504 Greynolds Circle takes two paper copies plus one digital copy, delivered in person or emailed, and it accepts cash or check only, with no online payment. Inspections run 9 to 3 and are requested before 3 pm for the next day. That changes how we sequence a job: the file is walked in, not uploaded.
Lantana's mainland is in the 160 mph band; the island side of Lake Worth Lagoon is 170 mph, and the whole town is in the wind-borne debris region. The town administers its own flood zone building requirements, and a fifth of Lantana is water, so lagoon-side lots get the flood check early.
I contacted Molsbee because a roof inspector from another company performing inspections on all the roofs in my HOA community commented that whatever company did my next door neighbor's roof is the company I should contact. Merrick's project management and Nicole's customer service left a positive impression throughout.Read on Google

We signed or completed a handful of roofing jobs with a Lantana address over the last twelve months.
All service areas ↗By whichever town the parcel sits in, not by the mailing address. Lantana, Hypoluxo, Manalapan and Atlantis all use 33462, and each runs its own permit desk, payment method and paperwork.
We look the parcel up before quoting, so the permit line in your price belongs to the right town and the file goes to the right counter.
It does: mainland Lantana is in the 160 mph band, the island side of Lake Worth Lagoon is in the 170 mph band, and the whole town lies inside the wind-borne debris region. The band sets the deck nailing, the underlayment fastening and the attachment of the shingle, tile or panel, and the written scope names the band for your parcel.
The paperwork usually takes longer than the roofing. The file is assembled, walked in or emailed to Greynolds Circle and paid by cash or check, and work starts once the permit is issued.
On the roof, the pace depends on the size, the covering and how much deck needs replacing, with each inspection booked the afternoon before it is due. We give you the sequence in writing and keep you posted as each stage passes.
Before any work, the inspection photographs and a written scope with the price, the deck allowance and the materials by name. After the final inspection, the permit record, photographs of the finished roof and the manufacturers' product warranties in writing, with a roof certification letter for your insurer if one is requested.
Your price is set in writing after the free inspection, and the Lantana roof replacement cost page walks through what moves it. Financing is available on approved credit, including zero-down options.
