Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is West Palm Beach’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
We’ve been doing exterior work in South Florida since 2011, and Ed Winslow’s name is on every job we put a ladder against. Our Roof Repair crew knows the difference between a 1940s El Cid barrel tile roof and a 1970s CBS ranch in Pleasantville, because we’ve opened up both. West Palm Beach homeowners call us because a live person answers the phone at 2 a.m. when a storm tears flashing off the roofline, and because the person who shows up is background-checked, in uniform, and works for a company with a published address and license number. No subcontracted mystery crew. No voicemail loop. Just Ed’s word, backed by the 36500-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right.
Our West Palm Beach customers also know our standing offers never expire. $40 off any repair over $200. Free second opinions on written estimates. No trip charge inside Palm Beach County. And a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans. Those aren’t promotions. They’re how we do business.
Our Roof Repair Services in West Palm Beach
Leak Detection and Repair
A ceiling stain in a Coleman Park bungalow is rarely coming from where the stain shows. Water travels along trusses and underlayment before it pools. We trace the actual entry point, whether that’s a failed pipe boot, a cracked tile on a Mission-style front slope, or corroded flashing where the roof meets a stucco parapet. On homes near the Intracoastal, the salt air eats galvanized flashing fast, so we replace it with aluminum or stainless as standard.
Shingle and Tile Replacement
West Palm Beach’s wind-borne debris region designation means loose shingles aren’t just an eyesore, they’re a missile risk in the next summer storm. We match existing profiles on asphalt shingle roofs and source period-appropriate tile for historic districts. If you’re in Flamingo Park or Grandview Heights, we coordinate with the city’s Historic Preservation Board so street-facing materials match before we order anything.
Flashing and Vent Repair
Most roof leaks around West Palm Beach aren’t the shingles. They’re the metal transitions: chimney flashing, skylight curbs, valley metal, and pipe boots. The Intracoastal’s salt-laden air accelerates corrosion on aluminum flashing, especially on homes west of Flagler Drive. We pull the old metal, check the sheathing beneath, and install new flashing with proper lap and sealant. If we find dry rot, you’ll see a photo and a written line-item price before we touch it.
Storm and Wind Damage Repair
After a tropical system passes, the calls from Northwood and Old Northwood pour in. Missing shingles, lifted ridge caps, punctured felt, loose tile. We handle insurance-scope repairs with the same upfront pricing and written change orders as every other job. Your adjuster gets clear documentation, not vague “roof work” line items. If an emergency tarp is needed, we’re out the same day.

Trusted Brands We Service in West Palm Beach
We service and install materials from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, including impact-rated skylights and roof accessories that carry Miami-Dade NOA approval. For West Palm Beach homeowners, that matters because Palm Beach County inspectors check Florida Product Approval numbers on every permit. We’re also an authorized installer for CWS products. The point? We’re not a cash-only pickup-truck roofer guessing at wind ratings. We stock common flashing sizes and underlayment locally, so a simple repair in Greenacres or North Palm Beach doesn’t wait a week for parts.
Common Roof Repair Problems We See in West Palm Beach Homes
- Salt-corroded flashing along the Intracoastal. Neighborhoods like Old Northwood and the waterfront streets east of Flagler Drive see aluminum flashing pit and fail within a decade. The leak looks like a shingle problem but it’s metal corrosion, and the fix is stainless or aluminum replacement.
- Oversized rafters and undersized clips on 1950s-1970s CBS homes. In Northwood and Coleman Park, original rafter sizes often don’t meet current uplift calculations. A simple repair can trigger a code-required upgrade the moment the sheathing comes off.
- Failed waterproofing at eaves on barrel tile roofs. The Mediterranean Revival homes in El Cid and Flamingo Park look bulletproof, but the original felt underlayment under mission tile degrades after 40-50 years. Water runs under the tile and rots the eave sheathing before you ever see a ceiling stain.
- Skylight curb failures on mid-century additions. 1960s and 1970s additions in Pleasantville often used homemade wood curbs and cheap flashing. Those rot first at the corners, and the leak travels down rafters into interior walls.
Pricing for Roof Repair in West Palm Beach, FL
Minor repairs like re-sealing a pipe boot or replacing a few damaged shingles run $250 to $500 in West Palm Beach. Flashing replacement around a chimney or skylight typically lands between $450 and $900 depending on access and metal type. Repairs that require opening the roof, replacing sheathing, or upgrading framing clips run $1,500 to $4,500. Historic homes in El Cid or Flamingo Park cost more when custom tile profiles or board-approved materials are required. The honest answer is this: every roof repair quote in West Palm Beach should include a written line-item breakdown. We give you one free, with no obligation, and no trip charge anywhere in Palm Beach County. Call (561) 831-7863 to schedule yours.
What Roof Repair Costs in West Palm Beach
If the repair scope widens into window or door work because a leak rotted the framing around an opening, those numbers change. Impact windows in West Palm Beach generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with impact single-hungs at $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings, like a picture window on an El Cid front facade, run $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages start around $8,000 and can exceed $25,000 for larger homes with custom openings. What moves the price here: the number of openings, whether the home sits in a higher wind zone near the Intracoastal, floor height, and frame material. The estimate is free and in writing. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll measure every opening and give you exact numbers.
Florida Pays You Back
West Palm Beach homeowners can stack several programs to cut the cost of hurricane-rated upgrades. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation improvements. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, typically $75 to $150, many carriers drop the windstorm portion of premiums by roughly 25%. We can’t guarantee what your insurer or the state will approve. We can tell you what documentation you’ll need, and we’ll provide it with every permitted job. The 36500-Day Done Right Promise means whatever these programs cover, the work behind them is done to code.

The West Palm Beach Code Reality Most Roofers Miss
West Palm Beach sits outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward, but it’s still inside Palm Beach County’s post-Andrew wind-borne debris region. That means roof repairs on mid-century CBS homes in Northwood or Coleman Park must still carry Florida Product Approval numbers and meet design pressure requirements that out-of-market roofers routinely skip. A crew driving up from Broward to chase a storm will happily replace shingles and flashing, hand you a bill, and vanish back down I-95 before Palm Beach County’s building department flags the missing documentation. We’ve cleaned up after those jobs. The repair looked fine from the street. The permit closed out months later, or never. When you replace sheathing, fasteners, or underlayment on a permitted roof repair in West Palm Beach, the inspector checks the product approvals. If they’re not there, you fail. We carry the documentation on every truck, for every product we install. That’s not a sales pitch. That’s the difference between a job that closes and a job that lingers.
What Opening Up a 1960s Northwood Roof Actually Reveals
A recent job on a 1960s CBS home in Northwood shows exactly what we mean. The homeowner called about a ceiling stain in the front bedroom. Our crew opened up the roof and found the original 2×4 rafters were undersized for current uplift loads, and the old three-tab shingles had been hiding failed waterproofing at the eave. The leak wasn’t the shingles. It was the eave detail underneath them. We documented the framing and the dry rot with photos, then wrote a change order with specific line items for new hurricane clips and peel-and-stick underlayment. Only after the homeowner approved that price in writing did we replace the sheathing and install PGT impact-rated skylights that carry a Miami-Dade NOA. That’s how a small leak becomes a five-figure repair, and that’s exactly why we inspect first, write allowances into the contract, and never proceed on a price you haven’t approved.
The same dynamic plays out differently in El Cid. Replacing a roof on a Mediterranean Revival home there often exposes original clay tile or mission-style eaves where the Historic Preservation Board requires matching profiles. If the contractor didn’t pre-order custom materials, the job stalls for weeks. We’ve handled those board approvals before, so we know what gets flagged and what passes. That local knowledge is the reason West Palm Beach homeowners keep our number.

FAQs - Roof Repair in West Palm Beach
A repair that replaces less than 25% of the roof surface typically falls under a repair permit, not a full re-roof permit, but the county’s building department decides based on scope and condition. If the work exposes framing deficiencies, like undersized rafters that no longer meet wind-load standards, the inspector can require additional upgrades before signing off. We’ll pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and walk you through what’s required. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll tell you which permit your job needs before we start.
Both statements can be true. West Palm Beach is not in the Miami-Dade/Broward High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so the HVHZ product approval process doesn’t apply. But Palm Beach County still sits in a wind-borne debris region with its own wind-load standards, and insurance carriers here routinely require impact-rated or Florida Product Approved skylights and roof accessories. A roofer who hand-waves that requirement is setting you up for a denied claim or a failed re-inspection. We install skylights and roof accessories with the documentation your carrier and the county both expect.
Salt-laden air corrodes galvanized flashing and standard steel fasteners within a few years. In Old Northwood and other neighborhoods east of Flagler Drive, we replace failed galvanized metal with aluminum or stainless as standard practice. It costs marginally more and lasts decades longer. If a roofer quotes you galvanized flashing for a waterfront-adjacent home, they’re not accounting for the environment. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll spec the right metals for your location.
No. Structural work like replacing rafters, adding hurricane clips, or re-sheathing load-bearing sections requires a permit modification or a supplemental inspection under Palm Beach County’s building code. The contractor cannot legally continue that work without approval, and doing so voids the permit and puts you at risk. We document the damage, write a priced change order, and file the amendment before we proceed. The 36500-Day Done Right Promise means we don’t cut corners on permits or structure.
No. Flamingo Park’s historic district rules require street-facing materials to match original profiles and divided-light patterns, but they don’t prevent you from using impact-rated products. Many manufacturers, including PGT and CWS, produce custom configurations that meet both the Florida Building Code and the Historic Preservation Board’s requirements. We’ve sourced those dual-compliance products for El Cid and Grandview Heights homeowners before. The key is pre-ordering custom profiles early, because lead times run four to six weeks. We handle that coordination so the board’s approval and the product delivery line up.
