Completed standing seam metal roof on a West Palm Beach home

WEST PALM BEACH ROOFING PROJECT

Standing Seam Metal Roof Replacement in West Palm Beach

Roof Masters transformed this complex West Palm Beach residence with a complete standing seam metal roof replacement, structural repairs, wind mitigation improvements, chimney restoration, custom flashing, and coordinated removal and replacement of the screen enclosure.

LocationWest Palm Beach, Florida
Roof AreaApproximately 4,675 square feet
Roof Design12 facets with a predominant 6/12 pitch
New System26-gauge GulfSeam standing seam metal roof
Project Completed2023

The Project Challenge

The existing wood shake roof covered a large, geometrically demanding structure with 12 roof facets, approximately 146 feet of valleys, 171 feet of combined ridges and hips, and 373 feet of eaves and rakes. Multiple roof intersections, plumbing penetrations, wall connections, a chimney, a pool area, and an attached screen enclosure required careful planning and trade coordination.

This project required far more than installing new roof panels. The team needed to expose and evaluate the substrate, replace damaged wood where necessary, improve truss-to-wall connections, restore the chimney exterior, and build reliable flashing transitions throughout the roof.

The Roof Masters Solution

Roof Masters removed the existing wood shake roofing and prepared the structure for a modern concealed-fastener metal roof. Damaged decking, fascia, and overhang framing were repaired as required. The roof deck was secured at six inches on center under the specified high-wind nailing pattern, and engineered wind mitigation improvements were completed at the truss-to-wall connections.

After preparing the substrate and waterproofing layers, our team installed Gulf Coast GulfSeam 26-gauge Galvalume steel panels using a concealed clip system. The raised seams and approximately 16-inch panel coverage created the clean architectural lines visible across the completed roof. A high-performance PVDF finish was specified for long-term resistance to ultraviolet exposure and South Florida weathering.

Complete Scope of Work

  • Tear-off and deck preparation: Removed the existing wood shake roof, disposed of job-related debris, inspected exposed conditions, installed exterior-grade plywood where required, and secured the deck.
  • Structural and wind mitigation work: Repaired damaged overhang framing and completed engineered truss-to-wall connection improvements with documented hurricane attachment hardware.
  • Underlayment assembly: Installed the specified mechanically attached felt layers and fire-resistant roof deck protection beneath the metal system.
  • Standing seam metal roof: Installed 26-gauge GulfSeam Galvalume steel panels with concealed clips, raised seams, coordinated panel layout, and PVDF-finished surfaces.
  • Sheet metal and penetrations: Installed valley metal, 3-inch by 3-inch drip edge, 4-inch by 5-inch wall flashing, and new flashing components at plumbing and mechanical penetrations.
  • Chimney restoration: Removed deteriorated stucco above the roofline, replaced damaged sheathing, installed felt and metal lath, applied new stucco, and sealed and painted the finished surface.
  • Screen enclosure: Removed the existing screen enclosure for access and roofing operations, coordinated the work with the reroof, and replaced the enclosure in accordance with the approved project specifications.
  • Permitting and documentation: Included permits, inspections, jobsite cleanup, progress photography, and wind mitigation documentation for insurance purposes.

Quality Control and Documentation

The project record documents the installation from substrate preparation through panel placement, valley detailing, ridge and hip finishing, chimney transitions, and final exterior views. This level of documentation was especially important on a roof with eight valleys and numerous changes in direction.

The Finished Result

The completed project replaced the original wood shake roof with a crisp standing seam metal system that complements the residence and surrounding landscape. Concealed fastening, protected roof deck layers, upgraded structural connections, restored chimney surfaces, renewed flashings, and a coordinated screen enclosure scope were completed as one integrated construction project.

I recently hired Build Master to handle a mold remediation and full bathroom remodel for two bathrooms in my home, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. After receiving a mold inspection report that identified active fungal growth and elevated moisture levels in a bathroom, I needed a company I could trust to handle the job correctly — not just cosmetically. Build Master did exactly that. They performed the full remediation with proper containment, and most importantly, the unit passed independent third-party clearance testing after the work was done. That meant a lot to me, because I knew the mold problem was actually solved, not just covered up. From there, they transitioned seamlessly into the remodel, and the finished result is beautiful. The entire project — remediation, clearance, and full remodel of both bathrooms — was completed in just two weeks. The crew was professional, clean, and respectful of the space throughout the whole process. No mess left behind, no corners cut. If you're dealing with mold damage and need someone who will handle it the right way from start to finish, Build Master is the company to call. Highly recommend!

My experience with Roof Masters was flawless from the minute I met Eddie Abadi, Sales Manager and Pablo Sanchez, Project Manager. Eddie provided my wife I with the proposal to replace our tile roof and explained every step of the job. It was a seamless process without the high pressure you might experience with other companies. I called the five references provided by Eddie and they all shared the same positive experience I experienced with Roof Masters. Eddie and Pablo communicated regularly with me and kept me informed of every phase of the job. They kept a clean work site emphasizing safety from falling nails and other debris. My wife and I are super satisfied with the workmanship throughout every phase of the job. We highly recommend Roof Master for anyone looking to replace their roof!

My wife is the Melissa that gave Buildmasters a negative review. I totally disagree with her review. Bob and his crew did a great job and he went above and beyond what the insurance company paid for in my opinion. There was some excess damage that had to wait to be worked on until the insurance company covered it and my wife probably didn't understand what was going on. Bob always told me exactly what would happen and what the insurance company would cover, and in fact did extra work that may have cost him money. There was unfortunately, some misunderstanding with my wife in terms of what insurance covered, which had to be settled before the work could be completed. In fact, I got Bob's business card at the time to pass out to my associates in case they needed similar work. All in all, I would recommend Buildmasters without hesitation and give them a five star review.

Roof Masters just completed replacing our roof in Boynton Beach. Cost was identical as proposed. Included the required plywood, facia plus extra stucco & painting. Work was completed ahead of schedule. Would recommend Roof Masters.

Choosing Roof Masters for my roof repair in Deerfield Beach was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The entire experience was seamless, from the management to the crew. A special shout-out to Eddi, who was incredibly professional and answered all my questions with such a positive attitude and great energy. They took the time to explain every step of the process so I knew exactly what to expect. If you want a team that is professional and transparent, I highly recommend Build masters / Roof masters.
