AfterFast, Reliable Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Across Greenacres
Roof replacement in Greenacres runs $12,000 to $38,000 for most single-family homes, with shingle roofs at the lower end, metal in the middle, and tile at the top. That’s a wide spread, and the honest reason is that pre-1992 CBS construction, canal-adjacent humidity, and Palm Beach County wind-code requirements all collide in this city in ways they simply don’t in newer western subdivisions. Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing team has spent years pulling old roofs off Greenacres homes, and we know what hides underneath them before the first tile comes up. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll walk the roof with you, free.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Greenacres’s Preferred Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Company
Ed Winslow started this company in 2011, and his name has been on the side of every truck since. We’re not a franchise with a call center in another state. When you call us about a roof in Greenacres, a live person answers, day or night, and that person knows the difference between a gable roof off Melaleuca Lane and a flat-tie hip roof near the SFWMD canals.
Our crews know Greenacres’s housing stock because we’ve worked on hundreds of these homes. The CBS walls are solid. The roof structures above them, though, are a mixed bag, and that’s where we earn our reputation. We show up in uniform, we’re background-checked, and we carry our license number on every quote. No subcontracted mystery crews, no ticket numbers. Just Ed’s word, backed by a published address and a 36500-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right.
Our Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Services in Greenacres
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common roof we install in Greenacres, and for good reason. They handle the inland wind zone well, they’re the most budget-friendly full replacement option, and modern shingles carry wind ratings that satisfy Palm Beach County inspectors without the weight penalty tile brings. On older Greenacres homes, we typically find nail pops, lifted edges, and granule loss that started years before the homeowner noticed a leak. We strip to bare decking, replace any rotted sections, and install a full synthetic underlayment system before the new shingles go down.
Tile Roof Replacement
Greenacres has a large stock of 1970s and 1980s homes with original flat concrete tile roofs, many of them past their service life. Tile is heavy, and that weight is both its strength and its liability. We see cracked tiles, displaced hip and ridge caps, and failed underlayment on nearly every original tile roof we inspect in this city. The good news: when we replace a tile roof on a Greenacres CBS home, the block walls handle the load without modification. The underlayment gets a full upgrade to a high-temperature self-adhered system, and we reset or replace tile to current attachment standards.
Metal Roof Replacement
Standing-seam and stone-coated metal roofs are growing fast in Greenacres, especially on homes where insurance carriers are pushing wind-mitigation upgrades. Metal shrugs off the canal humidity that eats aluminum window frames and corrodes fastener hardware. It’s lighter than tile, rated for the highest wind zones in the county, and a properly installed metal roof will outlast two shingle roofs. We install both screw-down and standing-seam systems, always with the right underlayment stack for a ventilated roof assembly in this climate.
Roof Repair
Not every Greenacres roof needs full replacement. We do honest repair work, and we’ll tell you when repair is the smarter call. Common repairs in this city include replacing broken tiles, sealing around plumbing vents and skylights, repairing lifted shingle edges, and fixing the flashing where roof meets CBS block wall. We price repairs as line-item quotes, not vague time-and-materials commitments, and our $40-off-any-repair-over-$200 offer is permanent. No expiry games.

Trusted Brands We Service in Greenacres
We’re authorized installers for a focused line of manufacturers we trust, and we stock common parts locally for Greenacres customers. On the roofing side, we work with leading branded architectural shingles, concrete and clay tile systems, and standing-seam metal profiles. On the window and door side of the business, we install elite impact lines from PGT, CGI, and CWS, plus Therma-Tru entry doors. When a Greenacres roof job turns up a rotted window buck or a corroded aluminum frame, we can often address it on the same schedule without bringing in a second company.
Common Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Problems We See in Greenacres Homes
- Pre-1992 roof-to-wall flashing failures: Homes built before the post-Andrew code overhaul often have minimal or poorly attached flashing where roof decking meets CBS block walls. Decades of canal humidity and afternoon storms work water behind the flashing, rotting the top plates and decking edges. We price this repair into every older Greenacres roof estimate.
- Canal-adjacent corrosion of metal roof components: Homes backing onto SFWMD laterals, especially off Jog Road and along the C-51 corridor, show accelerated rust on flashing, fasteners, and roof vents. The humidity is relentless. We upgrade to stainless or high-grade coated fasteners on every roof component within a quarter mile of open water.
- Wind-lifted shingles and tiles on east-west gable ends: Greenacres sits in a wind zone where afternoon thunderstorm gusts and occasional tropical systems hammer north and south elevations. We regularly find shingle tabs and tile edges lifted along gable ends, and we address nailing patterns and attachment clips as part of any replacement.
- Failed underlayment under original tile roofs: Many Greenacres tile roofs look serviceable from the street but have underlayment that’s dried, cracked, or torn after 30-plus years. The tile can fail shortly after that underlayment gives out, which is why we recommend a full inspection on any tile roof over 25 years old.
Pricing for Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Greenacres, FL
For a typical 1,800 to 2,400 square foot Greenacres single-family home, a full architectural shingle replacement runs $12,000 to $18,000. Standing-seam metal on that same footprint lands between $22,000 and $32,000. Tile replacement, including new underlayment and attachment hardware, runs $28,000 to $38,000 or more depending on tile profile and accessibility. Repairs are priced individually: a broken tile replacement runs $250 to $500, a flashing repair $400 to $900, and a section of rotted decking replacement $600 to $1,400.
What moves the price in Greenacres? Roof pitch, the number of penetrations, whether the home is canal-adjacent and needs stainless fasteners, and how much of the existing decking is salvageable. We inspect everything before we quote, and the number on the quote is the number on the invoice. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free in-home roof inspection and written line-item estimate.
What Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Greenacres
The cost anchors above are real, and we’ve already covered roof replacement ranges. But a surprising number of Greenacres roof jobs also include impact window or door replacement, because insurance non-renewal letters often demand both. For homeowners facing that combined scope, impact windows in this market typically run $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with single-hung impact units at $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings climb to $2,500 to $5,000, and whole-home impact packages range $8,000 to $25,000 or more.
What moves window pricing is the number of openings, wind zone, how high the unit sits above grade, and whether the frame is aluminum or vinyl. We measure every opening, check the rough opening condition, and give you a written quote before you commit. No allowances that balloon, no change orders that surprise you. And remember: every quote from Winslow comes with our 36500-Day Done Right Promise.
The Greenacres Insurance Reality: What Opening Up an Older Home Actually Turns Up
Greenacres is packed with pre-1992 CBS tract homes built before Hurricane Andrew forced Florida’s wind-code overhaul. Thousands of these homes still carry their original single-pane aluminum-frame windows, and those windows have no Florida Product Approval and no large-missile rating. In Palm Beach County’s ongoing homeowners-insurance crisis, that’s the single most common reason Citizens Insurance or a private carrier sends a non-renewal notice to a Greenacres homeowner. Replacement becomes an insurance-compliance job, not a voluntary upgrade. Wellington homeowners don’t face this the same way because impact glazing was built in from day one. In Greenacres, the dominant conversation is mandate-driven, and we know exactly what the insurers and inspectors are looking for.
When we open up a pre-1992 Greenacres wall to replace windows, we find things. The aluminum jamb is often corroded through at every masonry fastener hole. The rough opening is frequently out of square by a quarter to half an inch. The older wiring runs tight against the frame where it shouldn’t. Sometimes the waterproofing is a strip of old felt that crumbles on contact. We handle all of it the same way: inspection first, then a written allowance in the contract for rough-opening remediation, anchor retrofit, and any code-required upgrades the permit triggers. If we find a surprise once the wall is open, it’s priced and approved in writing before we touch it. You won’t discover a $3,000 framing surprise after demolition, because we told you about it before the saw came out.
On a canal-backed CBS home off Jog Road, our crew opened a 1978 master bedroom wall to find the aluminum jamb corroded through at every masonry fastener hole and the rough opening nearly half an inch out of square. We priced the rough-opening remediation and impact-rated anchor retrofit as a written allowance before cutting drywall, then installed PGT WinGuard casements with Miami-Dade NOA and a laminated glass interlayer, bringing the home into compliance with the insurer’s wind mitigation inspection. That’s the job done the way it should be: the problem found, priced, and fixed before the homeowner ever sees an invoice.
This is the field playbook for Greenacres: know what inspectors flag, know what insurers refuse, and price the hidden corrosion and rough-opening work before the first cut. That’s the only honest way to quote this city’s housing stock, and it’s how we’ve kept our reputation intact for over 15 years.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida’s incentive stack for wind-mitigation work is real, and Greenacres homeowners should use every piece of it. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact-rated windows and doors. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which is an immediate 6 to 7 percent savings on a five-figure job. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit returns 30 percent of the product cost on qualifying units, capped at $600 per year. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which costs roughly $75 to $150, many Greenacres homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of their policy. We don’t set the program rules or your carrier’s final numbers, but we’ll tell you exactly which upgrades qualify and help you document everything for the inspection.

FAQs - Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Greenacres
Because those windows have no Florida Product Approval and no large-missile impact rating, which means they fail the wind-mitigation inspection that insurers now require for competitive windstorm coverage in Palm Beach County. The insurer’s position is that a window that shatters under hurricane winds lets wind and water into the home, which drives claim losses. Replacing those windows with impact-rated units is the single most effective fix, and it often reverses a non-renewal decision. Call (561) 831-7863 for a window and roof assessment that tells you exactly what your insurer will want to see.
We measure every opening before ordering anything, and when we find one out of square, we price the remediation into the written quote as a line item. The fix typically involves shimming the frame, adjusting the anchor placement, and sometimes grinding or patching the block around the opening. We don’t force a square unit into a crooked hole and caulk the gap. If you live in an older Greenacres home, expect us to find at least one opening like this, and expect it to already be in the quote, not added later. Call (561) 831-7863 for an exact assessment of your specific openings.
Yes, and we’ve seen the proof. The SFWMD lateral canals threading through Greenacres keep ambient humidity high enough that aluminum window frames along those corridors corrode at the fastener holes within a couple of decades, even when the frames look intact from the curb. We specify stainless or high-grade coated fasteners and corrosion-resistant anchors on every canal-adjacent job, and we replace compromised framing before the new unit goes in. It’s a small upfront cost that prevents a much larger failure later. Call (561) 831-7863 to schedule an inspection of any canal-adjacent home.
The inspection verifies that the installed windows carry a Florida Product Approval number, that the design pressure rating matches the opening and wind zone, and that the units are anchored per the manufacturer’s approved installation method. The inspector also checks for laminated glass interlayers, proper attachment of the frame to the masonry opening, and documentation proving the installation matched the NOA. We prepare every Greenacres job with the inspection in mind, so the paperwork and the installation both pass on the first visit. Call (561) 831-7863 for a pre-inspection review of your current windows and roof.
Yes, for two reasons specific to Greenacres. First, your home sits in a wind zone where tropical storms and hurricanes cross the peninsula, and wind-driven debris doesn’t need a flood to break windows. Second, and more pressingly, your insurance carrier doesn’t care whether you’ve never flooded; it cares whether your windows have a large-missile rating and a Florida Product Approval. In this market, impact windows are often the difference between a renewed policy and a non-renewal letter. Call (561) 831-7863 for a honest assessment of what your home actually needs.
