Coral Springs Elite Roofing repairs and replaces roofs in Deerfield Beach, the beach city northeast of Coral Springs. We work on historic homes, newer houses, condos, and businesses from the ocean to the western neighborhoods.
Deerfield Beach is a city in Broward County, about 40 miles north of Miami. The Hillsboro River and Boca Raton lie to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Coconut Creek to the west, and Pompano Beach to the south.
A small settlement called Hillsborough began along the Hillsboro River around 1890. The Florida East Coast Railway reached the area in 1896, and the first post office opened in 1898, when about 20 people lived there. Early settlers mostly farmed pineapples, tomatoes, green beans, and squash. The Town of Deerfield, named for the deer that grazed along the river, was incorporated in 1925. It was renamed Deerfield Beach in 1939 to let tourists know about the beach, and it became a city in 1945.
The city grew quickly from 1950 to 1980. The 2020 census counted 86,859 people. Historic buildings include the Old Deerfield School from 1920, the Butler House from 1923, and the Deerfield Beach Station from 1926. Many of the oldest buildings use the Spanish Mediterranean Revival style. Deerfield Island Park is the only island park in Broward County. Facts in this section come from Wikipedia.
The Spanish Mediterranean Revival style seen in the city's oldest buildings often pairs with clay barrel tile. Many newer homes in the area echo that look. Barrel tile lasts a long time, but it is not a single sheet. Water that gets past broken or slipped tiles lands on the underlayment, and that layer does the real work of keeping the house dry. On older tile roofs, the underlayment often wears out before the tile does.
Close to the ocean, salt air also speeds up rust on flashing, nails, and edge metal. Corrosion-resistant parts are worth the small extra cost here.
The 2020 census counted almost one in five housing units in Deerfield Beach as vacant, which often includes seasonal homes. When a home sits empty for months, a slow leak can soak the attic and ceiling before anyone notices.
The Hillsboro River forms the city's northern edge and joins the Intracoastal Waterway near Deerfield Island Park. Homes along these waterways get steady breezes, salty spray, and more moisture than homes inland. Over time, that can loosen edge tiles and rust gutters, vents, and flashing. A check of these parts once a year, and after any major storm, keeps small problems from growing.
If you spend part of the year somewhere else, plan a roof check before you leave and after you return. Ask a neighbor or property manager to look at ceilings after big storms. A quick look from the ground for missing tiles or loose edge metal can catch problems early. It also helps to have a roofer's number handy, so a small issue can be fixed right away instead of waiting for your return.
