We know Lantana’s streets because our crews work them every week. This isn’t a satellite town we visit twice a year. We know the 1950s CBS bungalows off Lantana Road, the low-slung flat roofs near the lagoon, and the 1960s ranch homes west of I-95. That local familiarity changes what we look for during a tear-off, because Lantana’s roofs wear differently than Palm Beach County homes even ten miles inland. More on that below.

Why Birchbark Roofing Is Lantana’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company

Birchbark Roofing is part of the Cedarwell family of roofing companies since 2000, and every Lantana replacement is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. That guarantee is stamped on every job, not hidden in a contract addendum. Homeowners in Lantana also get the Cedarwell Care Promise: shoe covers at the door, drop cloths through the hallway, all debris cleared and photographed before we leave. Your floors, your landscaping, your kids’ play area - all treated like our own home, not a job site.

Erik Lindgren leads our team, and the standard he sets is simple: a written price before any work starts, background-checked uniformed technicians on site, and no surprises after the first day. Lantana homeowners consistently tell us the clean-up photo they receive before the crew drives away is the detail that mattered most. That’s the C.A.R.E. values in practice: Clean up like it’s our own home, Ask before we move anything, Respect quiet hours, Explain the price before the work.

Scheduling for Lantana jobs is coordinated from our Miami office, but the crews who work your roof are Lantana-local and know the permitting desk, the inspection rhythms, and the wind mitigation requirements specific to Palm Beach County. No long drive times, no excuses about traffic on I-95. A live person answers our phones 24/7, so when you call at 7 p.m. on a Thursday to ask a question, you get a human, not a voicemail tree.

Reroofing in Lantana

Reroofing in Lantana almost always means tearing off the old layer and starting fresh, because the town’s 1950s-1975 CBS homes rarely have a deck surface worth overlaying. What looks like a simple shingle swap from the street becomes a decking repair, a flashing replacement, and a fascia rebuild once the old material comes off. Most residential reroofing in Lantana runs $9,800 to $19,500 depending on whether the existing deck passes inspection or needs sections replaced. You’ll see your exact number in writing before we order the first bundle of shingles.

Our Roof Replacement team starts every Lantana reroof with a 40-point inspection of the deck, flashings, and roof-to-wall transitions. We photograph everything. If the decking is solid, we move straight to underlayment and shingles. If it’s soft, you see the photos and we write a line-item change order before any additional work proceeds. No mystery charges after the fact.

Decking and Nailer Replacement

Lantana homes built between 1950 and 1975 often have 3/8-inch plywood decking that’s delaminated from decades of lagoon humidity. Tear-offs routinely expose rotted nailer boards at the eaves. We replace those with pressure-treated lumber rated for coastal exposure, then re-nail the deck to the post-2004 Florida Building Code pattern before any underlayment goes down.

Full Code-Compliance Upgrades

Every permitted re-roof in Lantana triggers Palm Beach County wind mitigation requirements. That means secondary water barrier, specific nail patterns, and often upgraded roof-to-wall connections. We handle the permit, schedule the inspection, and walk you through the wind mitigation report - which can lower your homeowners insurance premium once the county signs off.

Flat Roof Replacement in Lantana

Flat roof replacement in Lantana costs between $12,000 and $22,000 for a typical 1,400 to 2,200 square foot home, largely because the existing tar-and-gravel built-up system has to come off in full before a modern membrane can go on. Lantana’s original flat roofs are decades past their service life. When the gravel surface starts pooling water or the ceiling shows brown stains after a storm, a patch won’t stop what’s already moving through the deck.

We spec flat roof systems for Lantana’s exposure, not for inland Palm Beach County. That means marine-grade metal edge, hot-dip galvanized or stainless fasteners, and a fully adhered membrane rather than a mechanically fastened shortcut. The salt-air convergence between the lagoon and the Atlantic will eat through cheap fasteners within a decade, and we refuse to install a system we know will fail that fast.

Membrane Selection for Coastal Exposure

For most Lantana flats, we recommend a multi-ply modified bitumen or single-ply TPO/PVC system with sealed lap joints and a reflective white or light-tan surface. Reflective membranes cut attic temperatures in July and August, when Lantana’s unshaded low roofs absorb heat all afternoon. The membrane itself carries a manufacturer warranty, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the workmanship on top of it.

Drainage and Ponding Corrections

Lantana’s flat roofs were built with perimeter drains that clog with decades of leaf litter and salt residue. We re-slope the deck where possible, install larger scuppers or add interior drains where the existing slopes won’t shed water, and verify the finished surface drains within 48 hours of the next rain. A flat roof that ponds water is a flat roof that fails early. We fix the drainage so the new membrane isn’t sitting in standing water for weeks after every summer storm.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lantana

Birchbark works with materials from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. For most Lantana replacements, we recommend GAF architectural shingles or Atlas StormMaster products because they carry the wind ratings this hurricane corridor demands. We keep common fasteners, drip edge, and underlayment stocked locally, so a Lantana job isn’t waiting on a warehouse order from Orlando or Jacksonville. If you have an existing shingle brand and want to match, we’ll source it. Your written estimate names the exact product, color, and warranty before we start.

Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Lantana Homes

• Corroded aluminum drip edge and pipe boots. On lagoon-adjacent and east-side blocks, we see drip edge pitted through within 10-12 years. The shingles still look fine from the street. The metal is gone. Any replacement that doesn’t include a full metal allowance is setting you up for a leak within a decade.
• Rotted decking hidden under tar-and-gravel. The 1950s-1970s built-up roofs on Lantana’s CBS homes hide deck rot, because the gravel traps moisture and the low pitch never quite dries. Tear-offs regularly uncover soft plywood and deteriorated nailer boards that were invisible from the attic or the street.
• Wind-uplift failures on short nail patterns. Roofs installed before the 2004 Florida Building Code (and many cheap jobs since) used nail patterns and underlayment that fail Palm Beach County wind mitigation. A permitted Lantana re-roof must be brought up to current code, which changes the fastening schedule and often the roof-to-wall connections.
• Salt-blasted fascia and soffit metal. The same two-way salt-air corridor that eats drip edge also attacks fascia wrap and soffit vents, especially on the water-facing elevation. We include a fascia and soffit line item on most Lantana estimates, because painting over corroded aluminum doesn’t stop the rot underneath.
