We are the roofing contractor 15 minutes east of the Hamptons at Boca Raton, straight out Glades Road from Woodfield Plaza. For the villas, condos and golf-community homes in this part of 33434, Rising Roof Services handles tile repairs, underlayment replacement, full re-roofs and leak calls for owners who may be home or a thousand miles away.
The Hamptons at Boca Raton is an older census name for a busy slice of unincorporated West Boca, north of Glades Road between Florida's Turnpike and Lyons Road. Most residents live in 55+ and golf-oriented communities, and the roof you'll see on nearly every street is concrete tile.
We're about 15 minutes away, heading west on Glades Road from our Woodfield Plaza office. Many owners here are seasonal, so we're used to working with property managers, neighbors and adult children while the owner is up north.

Concrete tile in 55+ and golf communities
Development here took off in the late 1970s and 1980s, with condo buildings, villas and single-family homes built around retirement living and golf. A large share of homes carry concrete tile in barrel or flat profile, sitting on underlayment that is now 20 to 40 years old unless it has already been replaced.
That's the key issue. Concrete tile can last for decades, but the layer beneath it wears out sooner. When it fails, water slips through at valleys, penetrations and hip lines, often surfacing as a ceiling stain long after the damage began. Replacing a few broken tiles won't cure a failed underlayment.
Being unincorporated, the area is permitted by Palm Beach County's PZB office. Associations usually regulate tile color and profile, and some keep an approved product list, so replacements need architectural sign-off before anything is ordered.
The old census area covered roughly 2.7 square miles between US 441 and the Turnpike and counted about 11,000 residents in 2000, which gives a sense of how densely the villas and condos are packed. Century Village alone is a very large 55+ community of multi-story condominium buildings, so a single roof decision there can affect dozens of households at once.
- Century Village: multi-story condo buildings with low-slope or mixed roofs, each managed through its own condominium association
- Villa and patio-home neighborhoods off Lyons Road: attached single-story units under shared tile roofs, where one leak often crosses a party wall
- Golf-community single-family homes: larger hip roofs in concrete tile, often with skylights and screen enclosures that add flashing points
What’s on the roofs in the Hamptons at Boca Raton, and what goes first
Concrete tile dominates, but the building type decides whether the first leak comes from a drain, a party wall or a skylight.

Tile Roof ReplacementRoofing permits in Hamptons at Boca Raton, FL at a glance
- Who issues the permit
- Palm Beach County PZB Building Division, since the area is unincorporated West Boca
- High-Velocity Hurricane Zone
- No — but wind-borne debris rules and Florida product approvals still apply.
- Other approvals
- Condo or HOA architectural review of tile color and profile; some associations keep an approved product list
- The Hamptons at Boca Raton is no longer a census-designated place, but the land is still unincorporated, so the county stays the permit office even though the mail says Boca Raton.
- The notice of commencement needs the owner’s notarized signature. Seasonal owners can often handle that remotely, and we send the form ahead so it doesn’t hold up the start.
- Boards of condo buildings three or more stories tall now plan around milestone inspections and structural reserve studies, and the roof figures in both.
- County inspectors visit at dry-in and again at final, so the schedule for a villa re-roof is built around both appointments.
Procedures and fees change — the building office for your address has the final word, and we confirm requirements before every job.
The Glades Road corridor west of the Turnpike
Glades Road is the main artery, with Lyons Road on the west and the Turnpike on the east. Kimberly Boulevard cuts through the middle past a string of shopping plazas, and the huge Century Village condo community is part of this same West Boca corridor. Mail here goes to ZIP 33434.
Because so many owners are seasonal, roof problems can go unnoticed for months. A common scenario: a neighbor spots water staining on a villa's soffit while the owner is away for the summer. The inspection finds a slipped ridge tile and saturated underlayment in the valley below. We send photos to the owner, secure the area, and schedule the repair once the association signs off.
Summer is the risky stretch here. The rainy season lines up almost exactly with the months many owners spend up north, so a slow valley leak can run from June to October before anyone opens the door. A spring inspection before you leave, and a quick check after any named storm, catches most of what we find too late in fall.

Why roof estimates vary around Glades and Lyons
- Coordinating with owners who are away
- Keys, gate passes and photo updates for a seasonal owner take planning, and a written scope has to be clear enough to approve from another state.
- Approved-product lists
- When an association names the tile brand or color, lead time depends on that one product, and a discontinued color can force a board-level decision.
- Reusing tile over new underlayment
- Sound concrete tile can often be lifted, stacked and relaid over new felt, but the scope has to allow for breakage and for replacement tile that matches.
- Phasing across condo buildings
- In Century Village and similar communities, work may be split by building and budget year, which changes mobilization and material ordering.
Every job gets a written, itemized scope before work starts. For published local price ranges, see our Boca Raton roof cost guide.

Hamptons at Boca Raton roofing FAQs
Can you inspect my roof while I'm out of state?
Yes. Many owners in this part of West Boca are seasonal. With permission to access the property, or coordination through your association or manager, we inspect the roof, send photos and a written summary, and go over options by phone or email. If a repair is needed, we schedule it and keep you updated until it's finished.
My tiles look fine. Why is the roof leaking?
Concrete tile is mainly a protective and decorative layer; the underlayment underneath is what actually keeps water out. After a couple of decades, older felt can crack and lose adhesion, especially at valleys and around vents. The tiles may look perfect while water gets past them. An inspection, sometimes lifting a few tiles, shows which situation you're in.
Does my HOA need to approve a new tile roof?
In most communities here, yes. Associations commonly regulate tile color, profile and sometimes manufacturer to keep buildings consistent. We help you assemble the architectural review package, including tile specs and physical samples, and submit the permit to the county once the association's approval is in hand.
Is the Hamptons at Boca Raton inside Boca Raton city limits?
No. The Hamptons at Boca Raton is an unincorporated area of Palm Beach County west of the city, even though addresses read Boca Raton, FL 33434. Permits and inspections for roofing are the county's job, handled by its PZB Building Division. Checking the parcel before we quote keeps the application away from the wrong counter.
When should seasonal owners in the Hamptons at Boca Raton schedule a roof check?
Ideally in spring, before you leave for the summer, and again after any tropical storm while you're away. The rainy season and hurricane season overlap the months many homes in the Hamptons at Boca Raton sit empty, so small leaks can run unnoticed. We send photos and a written summary either way.
Can the old tile go back on a Hamptons at Boca Raton villa after new underlayment?
Often it can. If the concrete tile is sound and your association still accepts that profile and color, we lift it, stack it on the roof, install new underlayment and relay it with fresh fasteners or foam. Expect some breakage, so we line up matching replacements first. Where tile is brittle or no longer approved, a full new tile roof may be the better path.
