Lantana · Shingle roof replacement
We replace shingle roofs in Lantana and nearby Hypoluxo and Manalapan, starting with a free inspection and a written price that lists the shingle, the underlayment and any deck repair. The typical Lantana house was built around 1975, and many carry a shingle roof over decking with decades of repairs, so we check the deck, edges and porch tie-ins before we price.
The permit goes to whichever town the parcel sits in, and we confirm that before preparing the file. We work from Lake Worth Beach, hold license CCC1327429 and answer (561) 318-8624 at any hour.

Before the work starts
Before a shingle reroof in Lantana
Tear-off on an Old Town or Lantana Pines house
Once the old shingles are off, the deck is exposed and photographed before anything new goes on. Soft or delaminated plywood is replaced as agreed in the written price, and the whole deck is re-nailed.
On houses with earlier additions, the joints between old and new framing get a closer look, along with the roof-to-wall connections. You see photographs of anything found under the old roof before it is covered.
What the Lantana inspector checks before shingle goes down
We specify a self-adhered secondary water barrier over the deck; the Florida Building Code sets the re-roof requirements for that layer, with more than one compliant method, and calls for at least four corrosion-resistant nails in every strip shingle. The town's inspector looks at the deck nailing and the underlayment before shingle covers them, so we sequence the tear-off to have each inspection booked before the roof is closed.
Drip edge, wall and pipe flashings and any porch membrane are tied in before the first course is laid.
Keep shingle or change material in Lantana
Shingle costs less than tile or metal and suits many mainland Lantana houses. Tile weighs far more, and metal changes the look and the fastening, so a switch needs checking against the frame and the rules.
If you want a different covering, we check the proposal with the town and any association before pricing it; in Atlantis, exterior changes go to the Architectural Review Committee first. We can price shingle and the alternative on the same roof areas.
What your written shingle price lists
The price shows tear-off, the deck allowance, underlayment, edge metal, flashings, shingle and the permit as separate lines. Any plywood beyond the allowance is photographed and approved by you before it is replaced.
As a GAF Certified Contractor and Owens Corning Preferred roofer, we install both makers' shingle systems, and you choose the line and colour. Financing is available on approved credit.

Permits and code
Permits in Lantana
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.
Local conditionsBuilt for Lantana
- A lagoon town with three neighbours
- Lantana, Hypoluxo, Manalapan and Atlantis share the 33462 ZIP code, and the paperwork, payment method and working hours change at the town line. We confirm which desk before we quote.
- Houses from 1975
- The median Lantana house dates to 1975, the same year Molsbee started. Roofs of that generation carry earlier repairs and decking that is checked and re-nailed before any new covering goes on.
- Water on three sides
- From the streets near Hypoluxo Park to the condos on Yacht Club Way just across the town line, salt from Lake Worth Lagoon reaches fasteners and edge metal first.

Shingle roof replacement questions in Lantana
What does a shingle roof replacement cost in Lantana?
It depends on the roof's size and pitch, how much deck needs replacing, the underlayment and shingle line you choose, and the permit. The number above comes from our signed full re-roofs across Palm Beach County over the last year, since our Lantana records alone are too few for a local range.
After a free inspection you get a written price, line by line, with photographs behind any deck allowance.
Can I replace just part of my Lantana shingle roof?
Sometimes. If repairs, replacements or roof recovering cover more than a quarter of a roof system or section in any 12-month period, the code generally requires replacing or recovering the roof covering across that entire system or section to meet current code requirements.
If that system or section was built, repaired or replaced in compliance with the 2007 Florida Building Code or a later edition, only the portion being worked on must meet applicable current code requirements. Our inspection helps determine which applies to your roof.
A single worn slope can often be replaced alone, but a large section may push the roof over the line, so we check your permit record and measure the area first.
How long does a shingle roof last in Lantana?
Condition tells you more than the calendar. Heat and strong sun age shingle faster on the slopes that face them all afternoon, and near Lake Worth Lagoon salt attacks nails, drip edge and flashing before the shingle itself.
The signs a roof is near its end: curling or cracked tabs, bare patches where the granules have gone, edges lifted after a storm and soft spots in the deck. We photograph those signs and check the permit record, so you know whether the roof has years left.
Do I need a permit to replace a shingle roof in Lantana?
Yes. A re-roof needs a permit from the town the parcel sits in, and in 33462 that can be Lantana, Hypoluxo, Manalapan or Atlantis.
Lantana's Building Division on Greynolds Circle takes a paper file and payment by cash or check; Hypoluxo works through a contracted permit service; Manalapan uses its own online portal and requires contractor registration. We prepare and file the application, and the permit is a line in your written price.
