Case Studies

Proof, not promises.

Real Palm Beach County roofs, documented section by section. Each of these projects could have been a six-figure tear-off. Each one was inspected, preserved, restored, and certified instead — because condition, not age, decides whether a roof should be replaced.

Featured case study · Delray Beach

An ultra-luxury oceanfront estate, documented from the air.

Our flagship case study: a Delray Beach oceanfront estate whose complex tile roof we inspected, documented by drone, repaired, and certified — proof that even a high-value roof is best served by repair-first roofing, not automatic replacement.

What you're watching: a drone tour of an ultra-luxury oceanfront estate in Delray Beach, flying the front elevation, the towers and multi-section concrete tile roof, and out over the Atlantic shoreline behind the property. It's the same roof our team inspected, documented, repaired through targeted reconstruction, and then certified.

It's one of the strongest examples of how we work on Palm Beach County's most valuable roofs. Watch the aerial tour, then read the full documented arc — inspection, condition, the repair-first decision, reconstruction, and the signed certification — in the complete case study.

To protect the owner's privacy, the estate's address and ownership details are not published. Explore the full write-up in the Delray Beach oceanfront estate case study.

Barletta Winds Point tile roof inspection, Delray Beach
Delray Beach · Concrete tile

Barletta Winds Point — repair the failures, keep the roof

A documented Delray Beach inspection: a representative tile removed to check the underlayment, the general roof field serviceable, and failure localized to the high-water-flow areas — the case for targeted rebuilding over a full tear-off.

Canoe Shore Way tile roof inspection, Delray Beach
Delray Beach · Concrete tile

Canoe Shore Way — what a comprehensive inspection reveals

An aerial-to-deck Delray Beach inspection documenting active moisture, cracked tiles, loose ridge caps, and failed vent mortar — scattered deficiencies, each a targeted repair rather than a reason to replace.

Highland Beach · Concrete tile

A $12 million oceanfront home, preserved without replacement

A 25-year-old tile roof flagged by the homeowner's insurer. The condition — not the age, not the home's value — decided the outcome: rebuilt failures, restored waterproofing, and a signed 5-Year Certification instead of a tear-off.

An oceanfront estate on Island Drive, Palm Beach, with a preserved tile roof
Palm Beach Island · Tile & flat

A Palm Beach Island estate, preserved — not replaced

Two large contractors told the owner to replace the entire roof. A 10-page documented inspection proved most of it had years of life left — so we repaired only what had actually failed and certified the rest.
