Roof Replacement Cost in Boca Raton, FL
Prices reviewed October 2026
Typical price for asphalt shingles. HomeBlue's Boca Raton cost data prices basic asphalt shingles on 2,000 sq ft of roof (20 squares) at $8,500 to $13,300. For architectural shingles, the low end of that range isn't realistic: PITCH Roofing, based in neighboring Delray Beach, publishes $5 to $9 per sq ft, which puts the same roof at $10,000 to $18,000. Boca sits right at the Broward line, but on the Palm Beach side, so it avoids the stricter High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules that apply in Fort Lauderdale.
That range is for 2,000 sq ft of roof, not living space. A 2,000 sq ft one-story home with a garage usually has well over 2,000 sq ft of roof, so use the estimate below for your house.

One roofing square is 100 square feet of roof. Shingle and concrete tile ranges come from PITCH Roofing's Palm Beach County price guide. Metal uses the Florida-wide range from our Florida guide, because PITCH's standing seam range is too wide to be useful.

HomeBlue's Boca Raton figures for basic asphalt shingles, by roof area. To turn your home's size into roof size, use the estimate below.
Estimate a roof for your Boca Raton home
About 33 squares of roof (3,300 sq ft, including waste).
This works out your roof's size from the home's footprint, garage, overhangs, a typical 6/12 slope, and about 12% for cutting waste, then prices it with the per-square rates in the material table above. If a roofer has measured your roof, enter the squares from the quote to skip the size estimate. Permits and decking repairs can add to the total. The full calculator adds pitch, roof shape, and tear-off layers.
What affects roof prices in Boca Raton
- Boca Raton is the southernmost large city in Palm Beach County. The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone ends at the Broward County line just south of town, so Boca roofers can use any product with a Florida Product Approval.
- If your home is in a homeowners association, get its approval on material and color before you sign, especially if you're switching between tile and metal.
- If your roof was built or replaced under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, a repair covering 25% or more of it only requires the repaired section to meet current code, not the whole roof. (Florida Statutes s. 553.844(5))
Storms that hit Boca Raton
- 2017
Hurricane Irma
A weather station in Boca Raton recorded a 79 mph gust, and nearby Delray Beach also logged 79 mph.
- 2005
Hurricane Wilma
Wilma's eye passed over Palm Beach County. The National Weather Service reported structural damage was heaviest in Broward and Palm Beach, including roof damage in some areas.
Figures come from National Weather Service Miami storm summaries. Storm damage is a common reason homeowners replace a roof sooner than planned.
Roof permits in Boca Raton
- The City of Boca Raton takes building permit applications through its Boca eHub portal. You choose the permit type, enter the job value and contractor, and upload the permit application, plus the contract if the owner didn't sign it.
- The portal needs the property's parcel control number (PCN), and city properties start with 06. A different prefix means your home is outside city limits and the permit goes to Palm Beach County or another city.

Common questions
Do Boca Raton roofs have to meet Miami-Dade standards?
No. Boca is in Palm Beach County, outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward. Roofs still follow Florida's statewide wind code.
How do I check that a home is in Boca Raton for permits?
Look up the parcel control number (PCN) with the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser. City of Boca Raton parcels start with 06, and the city's eHub portal needs that number to file a permit.
Is there help paying for a new roof in Boca Raton?
The city's SHIP disaster-repair funding is unfunded unless a disaster is declared, so most homeowners pay out of pocket or through insurance. Call the Community Improvement Division at 561-393-7756 for current status.
Can my insurer drop me because of my roof's age?
Not solely because of age if the roof is under 15 years old. An older roof can still qualify if an inspection shows at least five years of useful life left (Florida Statutes s. 627.7011(5)). See our roof age and insurance guide.
