Roofing Contractor in Loxahatchee Groves, FL

’Love It and Leave It Alone’ — Florida’s Last Frontier

Loxahatchee Groves is the oldest of Palm Beach County’s western communities. Its land was part of a two-million-acre tract that Southern States Land and Timber Company bought in 1902 for 25 cents an acre; once the canals were finished in 1917, it was platted as a farming community, and the Loxahatchee Groves Water Control District still maintains roughly 30 miles of those parallel canals and roads today.

Residents fought to keep it rural. Their longtime motto — ’Love it and leave it alone’ — discouraged streetlights, sewers, and paved roads, and in 2006 the town incorporated to lock that character in as the county’s 38th municipality. Most properties still run on well water and private septic, with no HOA dictating what you build — which is why you’ll find custom workshops, heavy equipment, horses, and even the occasional exotic animal out here (Lion Country Safari is a neighbor). There’s even a 96-acre sod farm owned by Dolphins owner Stephen Ross that grows the turf for Hard Rock Stadium.

Ranch Homes, Barns, and Ag Structures on Acreage

Homes here sit on 1- to 5-plus-acre lots in The Groves and the adjacent Acreage — Fox Trail, Deer Run, White Fences — ranch-style residences surrounded by barns, stables, and workshops. Metal roofing is right at home in Loxahatchee Groves: durable, long-lasting, and a natural fit for the rural look, whether it’s standing-seam on the main house or ag panel on a barn. We also install architectural shingle and tile for homeowners who want them.

Because most properties are whole homesteads, we roof all of it — the house, the barn, the workshop — and coordinate the job around the livestock and equipment on your land. As a dual-licensed general contractor, we also handle the structural and decking work older rural buildings often need on the same permit instead of stopping the job.

Voluntarily Built to Miami-Dade Spec

Don’t let ’inland’ fool you: when the 1928 hurricane came through, it knocked nearly every house in Loxahatchee Groves off its foundation — 32 miles from the coast. The wind out here on open, unbroken acreage is very real, and Palm Beach County is not legally within the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone the way Broward and Miami-Dade are. So we voluntarily build every roof here to Miami-Dade HVHZ spec, the strictest wind standard in the country.

On open rural lots with no windbreak, that engineered wind resistance is exactly what keeps a roof on in a storm — and it’s also what qualifies your home for wind-mitigation insurance credits, which we document for your insurer.
