Asphalt shingles, 2,000 sq ft of roof in West Palm Beach
$8,400 – $18,000

Typical price for asphalt shingles. HomeBlue's West Palm Beach cost data puts basic asphalt shingles on 2,000 sq ft of roof (20 squares) at $8,400 to $13,300. Architectural shingles run higher: PITCH Roofing, which has a Delray Beach office and works across Palm Beach County, lists them at $5 to $9 per sq ft installed, or $10,000 to $18,000 for the same roof. Concrete tile costs more again; see the material cards below.

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.

West Palm Beach roof cost by material

One roofing square is 100 square feet of roof. Shingle and concrete tile ranges are PITCH Roofing's published West Palm Beach prices. PITCH's standing seam range ($15 to $35 per sq ft) is too wide to be useful, so metal uses the Florida-wide range from our Florida guide.

$16,500 – $29,700

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.

Help paying for a roof in West Palm Beach

  • We didn't find a current City of West Palm Beach program that helps homeowners pay for a roof. Palm Beach County's owner-occupied rehabilitation program last took applications in February 2025 and is closed.

It's for owner-occupied, homesteaded single-family homes, for low- and moderate-income households, and it pays by reimbursement after the work passes inspection.

Common questions

Is West Palm Beach in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone?

No. Only Miami-Dade and Broward counties are. West Palm Beach roofs still have to meet Florida's wind code, but roofers aren't limited to the Miami-Dade approved-product list.

How do I get a roof permit in West Palm Beach?

Your roofer applies through the city's Civic Access portal, where fees are paid and inspections scheduled. The Building Division's main line is 561-805-6700.

Why is a tile roof so much more than shingles?

Concrete tile is heavier, slower to install, and costs more per square foot. PITCH Roofing lists it at $9 to $19 per sq ft in West Palm Beach, against $5 to $9 for architectural shingles.

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.
