AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Palm Beach Homeowners
Palm Beach Roof Replacement & Installation typically costs between $14,000 and $42,000 depending on square footage, roofing material, and whether you choose shingle, tile, or metal. Most full replacements take 3 to 7 days once materials arrive and permits clear. That’s the short answer. The longer answer is that your roof is the single most important barrier between your home and the Atlantic hurricane season, and Ed Winslow has been putting his name on Palm Beach roofs since 2011. Call (561) 831-7863 and a live person answers, day or night.
We’re not a franchise with a rotating cast of subcontractors. We’re local, owner-operated, and we publish our address and license number because we want you to know exactly who stands behind the work. When a roof fails in Palm Beach, it fails fast: wind-driven rain finds the seam, the underlayment gives, and suddenly you’re moving furniture at 2 a.m. A roof done right keeps that scenario hypothetical. That’s the whole job.
Key Takeaways:
- Roof replacement in Palm Beach averages $14,000-$42,000 depending on size and material.
- We install shingle, tile, and metal roofing with the same crew from tear-off to final inspection.
- Ed Winslow owns the company. His name is on the door and on every job we do.
- Call (561) 831-7863 for a free, written, line-item estimate. No trip charge in Palm Beach County.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
Roof replacement isn’t one thing. It’s a sequence: remove the old roof, inspect what’s underneath, repair or replace the decking, install underlayment, and then put on the finished surface. Each material has its own demands, and each home in Palm Beach has its own wind-load requirements. Here’s what we actually do, broken down by what you might be considering.
Shingle Roof Replacement
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing choice in Palm Beach because they balance cost, weight, and storm performance. A shingle roof replacement is the right call when your current shingles are curling, losing granules, or showing bare spots after a storm. We tear off to the deck, inspect for rot, install a high-quality synthetic underlayment, and finish with shingles rated for Florida wind uplift. Every job includes new drip edge, flashing, and ridge vent. The result is a roof that looks sharp from the street and holds up when the next named storm swings through.
Tile Roof Replacement
Tile roofs dominate Palm Beach’s architectural character, from barrel tile on Mediterranean revival homes to flat concrete tile on newer construction. Tile is heavy, and Palm Beach homes built for tile have the framing to carry it. We handle tear-off and reinstallation of concrete and clay tile, including the critical underlayment layer that actually keeps water out. Tile itself sheds water, but the underlayment is the real waterproofing. We use high-temp, high-wind-rated underlayment systems and follow Miami-Dade and Florida Building Code specs to the letter. A tile roof replaced correctly will outlast its owner.
Metal Roof Replacement
Standing seam and metal panel roofs are gaining ground in Palm Beach because they shrug off wind and shed rain like nothing else. A metal roof replacement makes sense when you want a 50-year lifespan and you’re tired of worrying about wind-driven debris. We install concealed-fastener standing seam systems as well as exposed-fastener panels, depending on your budget and the look you want. Metal roofs reflect heat, which helps with cooling bills in a Palm Beach summer. They’re also among the best performers in a hurricane, and insurance companies sometimes offer premium discounts for them. Worth asking your agent.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Replacement
Not every Palm Beach roof is pitched. Additions, porches, and mid-century homes often have low-slope or flat sections that need a different approach. We replace flat roofs with TPO or modified bitumen systems, which handle ponding water far better than shingles ever could. Proper drainage is the make-or-break detail on flat roof replacement, so we check and correct slope where possible, install new scuppers and drains if needed, and make sure the system is watertight at every penetration. A flat roof done wrong will leak within a year. Ours don’t.
Every roof replacement we do in Palm Beach ends with a site cleanup and a walkthrough. You see what we see. No surprises, no “that’ll be extra.”

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
We install roofing systems from manufacturers we trust, and we’ve put our name on hundreds of jobs using their products. We’re an authorized installer for PGT, a Florida company whose impact-rated products have set the standard for coastal storm protection for decades. On the roofing side, we regularly work with PGT’s sister systems and related accessories for integrated protection, particularly where roofs meet windows and doors. The point is a seamless envelope: the roof, the windows, the doors, all tied together by the same crew that understands how they interact.
We also install CGI and CWS products where impact-rated window and door systems connect to the roof line. These are brands we know well because we install their windows and doors throughout Palm Beach County. When you need a roof replacement that ties into impact-rated skylights, roof-to-wall flashing, or second-story window systems, we’re already fluent in the product lines. ViewLux products also appear on our jobs where homeowners want high-performance glazing paired with a new roof. Whether you have a specific brand in mind or none at all, we’ll recommend the right system for your home, your budget, and Palm Beach’s wind zone. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll walk you through what makes sense for your house.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
- Water stains on ceilings or walls after heavy rain. Water inside the house is the roof saying it’s done. By the time you see a stain, the leak has been working through the underlayment for weeks or months. In Palm Beach’s rainy season, that means mold risk starts climbing fast.
- Granules in the gutters or at downspout bases. Shingle roofs shed granules as they age. If you’re seeing grit pile up after a dry week, your shingles are past mid-life and the sun has cooked the asphalt to the point of failure. Palm Beach’s UV load is relentless, and it shortens shingle life compared to northern climates.
- Cracked, slipped, or missing tiles after a storm. Tile roofs can look fine from the ground while tiles up top are cracked or nudged out of place. A single cracked tile lets water reach the underlayment, and enough of them means the underlayment is carrying water constantly. Once the underlayment fails, you’ve got structural risk.
- Daylight visible in the attic. Go up on a sunny morning with the lights off. If you see pinpoints of light through the roof boards, you’ve got gaps in the decking or failed flashing. The roof is compromised even if it isn’t actively leaking. In Palm Beach, “not leaking yet” becomes “leaking badly” in one storm.
- Roof age over 15 years for shingle, or 25+ for tile with visible wear. Shingle roofs in coastal Florida typically last 15 to 20 years, and that’s with good installation and ventilation. Tile roofs last far longer, but the underlayment beneath them has a shorter life. If your home’s roof history is unknown or the last replacement was in the previous decade, a professional look is the cheapest insurance you’ll buy.
If you’re seeing any of these, call (561) 831-7863. Our second opinion on a written estimate is free, and if we find a minor repair instead of a full replacement, we’ll tell you that. Ed Winslow doesn’t sell roofs people don’t need.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
Roof replacement is disruptive enough without mystery. Here’s exactly what happens when you hire us for a roof in Palm Beach:
- 1
On-site inspection and written estimate. We come out, walk the roof, inspect the attic, and check flashing, decking, and ventilation. You get a written, line-item estimate that spells out materials, labor, permits, and the full scope. The price we quote is the price on the invoice. We don’t play the lowball-then-change-order game, and our fixed pricing means no surprises when the job starts.
- 2
Permit pull and material selection. Palm Beach has its own permit requirements and every municipality in the county has its own building department. We handle the permit from start to finish, including wind-load calculations and product approvals. You pick colors and materials from the brands we trust, and we order everything to spec.
- 3
Tear-off and deck inspection. The old roof comes off down to the deck. This is the moment of truth: we find rot, termite damage, or failed panels, and we show you exactly what we found. Any repairs to the decking are photographed, documented, and priced transparently. No hidden condition surprises because you’ve already seen it.
- 4
Underlayment, flashing, and finished roof installation. We install the underlayment system, new flashing at every penetration, drip edge, and the finished surface. Our crew installs roofs the way we’d install one on our own homes, with attention to the details that fail first: valleys, chimneys, skylights, and wall intersections. We use the manufacturer’s specified patterns for shingle or tile, and we don’t take shortcuts that pass initial inspection but fail at year eight.
- 5
Final inspection and walkthrough. The building inspector passes it, we clean the site, and we walk the property with you before we call it done. You see the roof up close, ask whatever you want, and we don’t leave until you’re satisfied. Then the 36500-Day Done Right Promise takes over: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Period.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Palm Beach?
A typical shingle roof replacement on a 2,000-square-foot Palm Beach home runs $14,000 to $22,000. Tile roof replacement on the same footprint typically lands between $24,000 and $38,000, depending on tile type (concrete is less than clay) and underlayment upgrades. Metal standing seam runs $28,000 to $42,000 on average. Flat or low-slope sections add $8 to $12 per square foot. These are real ranges based on our Roof Replacement & Installation in West Palm Beach and surrounding areas, not national averages that don’t account for Florida wind codes and local permit fees.
What drives the price: the condition of the decking once the old roof comes off, the roof’s pitch and number of penetrations, the material grade you choose, and whether the home needs upgraded ventilation or insulation while we’re in there. You avoid overpaying by getting a written line-item quote and asking your contractor to flag decking condition during the initial inspection. A good inspector can tell you before tear-off whether decking is likely to need replacement. Our free estimate includes that assessment, and our price holds unless we find hidden conditions you approve in writing first.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Replacement & Installation in Palm Beach
Roof replacement means removing your existing roof down to the decking and installing a completely new roofing system: underlayment, flashing, drip edge, and the finished surface (shingle, tile, or metal). Installation typically refers to the same process on a new addition or new construction. At Winslow Windows & Doors, we do both - including Roof Replacement & Installation - Greenacres - and the standard is identical. Your roof is either done right or it’s a liability, so we treat a re-roof with the same care as a roof on a brand-new home. Call (561) 831-7863 with any roof question and a real person picks up.
Most roof replacements we do in Palm Beach take 3 to 7 days once the permit clears and materials arrive. Shingle tear-off and installation on a typical home is 2 to 4 days. Tile takes longer, usually 5 to 7 days, because each tile is set individually and the underlayment has to be perfect. Metal roofs often move fastest of all, at 2 to 4 days once fabrication is done. Weather, decking condition, and inspection scheduling all play a role, and we’ll give you a clear timeline on your written estimate. Call (561) 831-7863 for a project-specific answer.
Roof replacement in Palm Beach typically costs $14,000 to $42,000 depending on roof size, pitch, material, and the condition of the decking. Shingle roofs run $14,000-$22,000, tile runs $24,000-$38,000, and metal runs $28,000-$42,000 on average. Every job starts with a free written estimate so you know the exact number before committing to anything. The price we quote is fixed, and the only changes come from hidden conditions you approve in writing. Call (561) 831-7863 to schedule your estimate, with no trip charge in Palm Beach County.
Yes. We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and CWS products, and we integrate them into roofing systems throughout Palm Beach. These are Florida-built impact-rated window and door brands, and when they meet the roof line, the flashing and weatherproofing details determine whether your home is actually watertight. We know those product lines because we install them. We also work with ViewLux glass systems where homeowners want high-performance glazing paired with their new roof. Call (561) 831-7863 to talk through what fits your home.
Yes. If a Palm Beach storm has put a branch through your roof or peeled back a section of shingles, we have crews that tarp and secure damaged roofs fast. The emergency work is about stopping further water damage first, then we’ll assess whether you need a repair or full replacement. Someone answers the phone 24/7 at (561) 831-7863, and we’ll get you on the list immediately. A tarp done right buys you time to make a good decision, not a panicked one.
Your new roof carries the manufacturer’s material warranty, and our workmanship is covered by the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Ed Winslow has put his name on the company since 2011, and we’re not going anywhere. A warranty is only as good as the company standing behind it, and we publish our address and license number because we intend to be here when you need us. Call (561) 831-7863 and ask us anything about the promise.
Clear the driveway and any spaces directly next to the house so our crew can stage materials and position a dump trailer. Move vehicles out of the drop zone, take down anything hanging on interior walls (roof work vibrates the structure), and cover attic items with sheets because some dust always gets through. If you have a pool, close the automatic cover and let us know so we protect it from debris. We handle the rest: permits, site protection, and a full cleanup when the job is done. Call (561) 831-7863 with any other prep questions.
