Roofing in Palencia, FL

Palencia is the golf community on the Intracoastal side of US 1 north of St. Augustine, developed by Hines on 1,450 acres with two miles of frontage on the waterway and Marshall Creek. It was built out from the early 2000s through the 2010s, and the houses carry a Spanish and Mediterranean look: stucco, arches, and concrete tile on a large share of the roofs, with architectural shingle in the later villages and some standing seam on recent builds. The property owners' association reviews every exterior change.

The community sits on higher ground than the beaches, but the streets along Marshall Creek and the Intracoastal are low, and the humidity off the water carries salt to the fasteners. The first tile roofs, from 2002 to 2006, are now twenty years old, and on a tile roof that is an underlayment question, not a tile question. Nor'easters off the coast find the east slopes.

This site connects Palencia homeowners with an independent local roofing contractor by phone. It does not perform the work.

Palencia roofing, tile at twenty years

A stain under a 2004 tile roof with no broken tile is a roof repair about the underlayment beneath it. A tile roof at the end of its underlayment life is a roof replacement, often a lift-and-relay that keeps the tile the association approved. A renewal letter is a written roof inspection.

Where to call in Palencia
