Ron Bell Roofing is headquartered here in Delray Beach. Roof replacement, repair, and storm response for the Village by the Sea since 1987.
Most roofing companies that work in Delray Beach drive in from somewhere else. We do not. Our shop is in Delray, our crews live here, and we have been putting roofs on homes in this city for almost 40 years. When you call, you are talking to a local team that knows the difference between a bungalow off Swinton Avenue and a barrel tile home west of Military Trail.
That local knowledge shows up in the small things: which streets flood, which HOAs are strict about tile color, and how fast salt air off the ocean chews through the wrong fasteners.
Delray runs from the Atlantic barrier island, across the Intracoastal, to the inland communities. Where your home sits changes what your roof needs.
We roof homes across Lake Ida, Pineapple Grove, the Atlantic Avenue downtown corridor, the historic districts near Swinton Avenue, the beachside, Tropic Isle, Del-Aire, Sherwood Park, Hunters Run, and west toward Kings Point.
ZIP codes: 33444, 33445, 33446, 33483, and 33484, plus the surrounding Palm Beach County communities.
Downtown and the historic districts lean toward tile and older shingle, the barrier island toward tile and flat sections, and the western communities toward concrete tile and architectural shingle. We install and repair all of them.
After almost 40 years here, the calls follow patterns. Downtown and in the historic districts near Swinton Avenue, we see aging tile with cracked or slipped pieces and underlayment that has quietly reached the end of its life. On the barrier island and beachside, it is corrosion, rusted fasteners, deteriorated flashing, and salt damage around vents and skylights. West of Military Trail, in the newer communities, it is more often storm lifted shingles and worn valleys. We diagnose the actual cause instead of just patching the symptom.
Palm Beach County is a high wind zone, and Florida insurers increasingly look at roof age and construction before they will write or renew a policy. A new, code compliant roof in Delray usually improves your standing, and a wind mitigation inspection documents the features carriers reward, including your roof deck attachment, roof to wall connections, and secondary water barrier. We provide the wind mitigation report with every replacement so you can hand it straight to your agent.
Yes. Every roof replacement in Delray Beach is permitted and inspected through the city building department. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and handle the paperwork so you do not have to.
No. When we tear off a tile roof the tile is destroyed in the process, so a reroof is done with new tile. The underlayment beneath the tile is usually what has failed, and that is what sets the real timeline.
It depends on the roof area, pitch, number of stories, and material. We measure the actual roof and give you a detailed, transparent estimate after a free inspection, with no obligation.
Because we are based in Delray, we prioritize local emergency tarping and inspections after named storms. Call or text 561-737-7507 for same or next day storm response.
