AfterFast, Reliable Roof Inspection Across North Palm Beach
A roof inspection in North Palm Beach typically runs $250 – $450 for a standard single-family home, with flat-roof and low-slope homes from the 1950s-1960s often running $350 – $600 because they take longer to inspect properly. Most inspections take 60 to 90 minutes, and you receive a written report with photos the same day. If you’re wondering whether your roof will survive the next hurricane season, call Brennan Roofing at (361) 320-9467 to schedule your inspection. We know North Palm Beach roofs because we’ve opened enough of them to know what hides underneath.
Travis Oakley leads our inspection crews, and every technician arrives background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know exactly who is on your roof, and you’ll have a written report in hand before anyone asks you to spend a dollar on repairs.
Why Brennan Roofing Is North Palm Beach’s Preferred Roof Inspection Company
North Palm Beach homeowners call us because we treat an inspection as a code-compliance audit, not a shingle count. That matters in this village more than anywhere else in Palm Beach County. The post-WWII building boom left North Palm Beach with a large share of 1950s-1960s homes that have low-slope and flat roofs over carports and additions. Those original fastening systems rarely meet current Florida Building Code wind-uplift requirements. Our Roof Inspection team knows exactly where to look, and what to document when we find it.
Our technicians understand the village’s strict aesthetic and wind-mitigation codes. They know that a roof on Lighthouse Drive faces different conditions than one on Prosperity Farms Road. East-facing slopes near the Intracoastal take the brunt of salt spray and wind-driven rain, and we inspect those slopes first after any storm. Homeowners across North Palm Beach trust us because we show up inside the promised window, put the findings in writing, and never turn an inspection into a scare tactic.
Every inspection comes with the Garrison Standard: a written price before any work starts, a background-checked uniformed technician on site, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise if we do recommend repairs. Phones are answered by a live person around the clock, so when you call (361) 320-9467, you speak to a person who can schedule your inspection, not a voicemail queue.
Commercial Roof Inspection in North Palm Beach
Commercial Roof Inspection in North Palm Beach means walking low-slope membrane systems, flat built-up roofs, and TPO or modified bitumen on retail, office, and condo buildings along US-1, Northlake Boulevard, and the PGA corridor. Commercial roofs here face the same salt-laden ocean air as residential roofs, but the stakes are higher: a failed membrane over a business can shut down operations. A typical commercial inspection in North Palm Beach runs $600 – $1,200 depending on square footage and roof type.
We document everything: membrane condition, seam integrity, flashing details, drainage, and fastener corrosion. You get a written report with photos and a prioritized repair list, and you get it before you spend a dollar on remediation.
Flat and Low-Slope Membrane Systems
North Palm Beach has more flat commercial roofs than inland parts of the county, and they fail differently. We probe seams, check ponding areas, and test membrane adhesion. Salt air corrodes metal edge trim faster here than you’d expect, so we inspect drip edge and terminations closely on every commercial job.
Wind Mitigation and Code Documentation
If your commercial building needs a wind mitigation report for insurance, we document attachment methods, deck type, and roof-to-wall connections. We flag anything that won’t pass a Florida Building Code permit review before you file, so you don’t get surprised at the permitting counter.
Roof Inspection Services in North Palm Beach
Roof Inspection Services in North Palm Beach cover what most homeowners actually need: a trained eye on the roof before hurricane season, after a storm, or before a real estate closing. A standard residential inspection here is $250 – $450. On mid-century ranch and one-story homes, we spend extra time on carport additions and low-slope sections where original decking and fasteners hide.
We inspect shingle condition, underlayment, flashing, drip edge, ventilation, and every penetration. We document what’s fine and what isn’t, with photos. If a repair is covered by your insurance, the report gives you what you need to file. If the roof is failing, the report gives you a real number, not a vague warning.
Post-Storm and Pre-Purchase Inspections
After any named storm passes through North Palm Beach, we inspect east-facing slopes near the Intracoastal first. Those are the ones that take wind-driven rain and salt spray hardest. For home buyers, we look for the signs of deferred maintenance that a quick walkaround misses: corroded fasteners, patched membranes, and valley details that never had ice and water shield.
Insurance and Wind Mitigation Documentation
If your insurer requires a wind mitigation inspection, we document roof age, deck attachment, and roof covering type in the format carriers accept. We don’t guess on shingle ratings. We check the actual product markings when visible and tell you plainly whether your roof meets current wind standards.

Common Roof Inspection Problems We See in North Palm Beach Homes
- Corroded fasteners on 1950s-1960s low-slope roofs. Original nails and screws in carport and addition roofs have spent sixty-plus years in salt-laden air. They look fine from below; once pulled, they snap or crumble. This is a hidden failure point that most inspectors miss because the membrane still looks intact.
- Missing ice and water shield at valleys and eaves. Homes built during the post-WWII boom often went up without membrane protection at the roof’s most vulnerable points. Wind-driven rain near the Intracoastal finds those gaps quickly, and the leak shows up on a ceiling far from the actual entry point.
- East-facing slope deterioration. The prevailing ocean breeze means the eastern roof planes on homes near the water take the worst salt exposure. Flashing corrodes faster, shingles lose granules sooner, and membrane seams open up. We inspect those slopes first on every job.
- Deteriorated decking under flat carport roofs. Original plywood or plank decking from the 1950s-1970s often has dry rot from decades of small leaks nobody noticed. We find it when we pull back the old membrane. If the decking is compromised, the whole roof section needs to come off before new material goes on.

FAQs About Roof Inspection in North Palm Beach
North Palm Beach inspections cost more because the village’s older housing stock, particularly the 1950s-1960s low-slope and flat roofs, takes longer to inspect correctly. A technician has to check membrane seams, pull back sections to examine decking and fasteners, and document code deficiencies that inland inspectors don’t face as often. You’re not paying for a longer visit; you’re paying for a report that tells you what a permit will actually require. Call (361) 320-9467 for an exact inspection quote.
On a flat-roof or low-slope home, we inspect membrane condition and seams, check for ponding, probe decking for dry rot, pull sample fasteners to check for corrosion, and document whether the attachment method meets current Florida Building Code wind-uplift requirements. We also inspect flashing at every penetration and the drip edge detail on east-facing slopes where salt spray causes the most damage. You’ll have a written report with photos the same day.
We document it with photos, price the remediation as a line-item allowance in writing, and get your approval before we order materials or start any repair work. This is the Garrison Code: the price goes on paper before the work begins, and it doesn’t move at the door. On a 1962 ranch off Lighthouse Drive, we found corroded fasteners, missing ice and water shield at the valleys, and two rafters sistered with untreated lumber. We priced the framing repair and new underlayment in writing before touching anything, and the homeowner approved each line item before we ordered a single square of GAF architectural shingles.
Because the prevailing ocean breeze drives salt-laden air directly into the eastern roof planes, and that exposure corrodes flashing and fasteners faster than any other part of the roof. Wind-driven rain hits those slopes harder too, which is why leaks near the Intracoastal tend to recur at the same east-facing slope after every storm. We inspect those slopes first on every North Palm Beach job, and we document the flashing and drip edge in detail.
Yes. When shingle markings are visible, we record the actual product rating and tell you plainly whether it meets current Florida Building Code wind standards for this area. Many mid-century North Palm Beach homes were original built with fastening systems and shingles that no longer satisfy modern wind-uplift requirements, and our inspection document that in writing so you know exactly where you stand with your insurer.
