Roof repair in Delray Beach On the five Delray roofs below, no report called for a new roof.

It depends on what the inspection finds, so we don't publish prices. The cost comes down to how many sections have failed and how big they are, whether the plywood under the tile is sound, whether your tiles can go back on, and how the roof is reached. After a free inspection you get a written plan for your roof, with photos.

Often, yes, when the inspection shows the rest of the roof is sound. On the five Delray roofs on this page, the plans went after the sections that had failed: three leak areas on one roof, two on another. None of the plans called for replacing the rest of the roof. If a roof is failing as a whole, we tell you that too.

Yes. Our roof inspections across Palm Beach County are free and include a written summary with photos. You see what's failing, what isn't, and what we recommend. There's no obligation to hire us for the work.

We start where the water shows up inside and work back to the section of roof above it. On the Delray roofs we've documented, leaks came from valleys, the run-off under downspouts and other sections that carry a lot of water, so we check those closely and lift tiles when we need to see the underlayment (the waterproof layer under them). Every finding is photographed.

Fix the section that actually failed, properly, once. A patch or sealant over a hidden failure can stop the drip for a while without stopping the water underneath, and you can end up paying for the same leak twice. Our written plan shows exactly which sections need work. See why cheap roof repairs fail.

Yes. Along with tile, we repair flat and low-slope roofs, shingle roofs, and the places where two roof types meet. See flat roof repair and shingle roof repair, or call and describe your roof, and we'll tell you what we'd check first.

It may. A 5-Year Roof Certification documents the roof's condition and Mike's opinion of its remaining useful life; your insurer makes its own decision. Mike McGilvary Roofing is a licensed roofing contractor, not a public adjuster. We document roof condition and the repair scope the roof requires; we do not interpret policies, advise on coverage, or adjust claims.

We recommend once a year. Mike's roof certifications note that continued annual inspections and routine maintenance may extend a roof's life further, and a yearly report gives you a dated record of the roof's condition, so small problems get fixed before they turn into leaks inside the house.
