ES Windows Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Palm Beach: What to Know First
ES Windows shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Palm Beach comes down to one thing: the roof assembly around your ES Windows frames and sills has to be detailed correctly the first time, or you get leaks that travel into the window opening and damage the frame. We handle that intersection every week. An independent ES Windows service provider, Winslow Windows & Doors repairs and replaces shingle, tile, and metal roofing around ES Windows products, with most Palm Beach jobs quoted within 48 hours and completed in two to four days depending on material type.
This page is for homeowners in Palm Beach who already own ES Windows products (typically ES Windows’ impact-rated or aluminum lines) and need roofing work that won’t compromise the window-to-roof connection. If the flashing, underlayment, or roof covering around your ES Windows unit is failing, call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll schedule a free estimate.

How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
ES Windows units are engineered for coastal performance, but in Palm Beach the weak point is rarely the glass or frame. It’s the roof-to-window transition, where shingle, tile, or metal meets the frame and sealant breaks down under salt air and storm-driven rain. Here’s what we see on actual ES Windows jobs:
- Flashing separation on ES Windows Impact Series frames. Palm Beach’s afternoon thunderstorms push water sideways, and once the head flashing lifts even a quarter-inch off an ES Windows frame, water gets behind the nailing flange and rots the substrate. Our fix: remove the overlapping shingle or tile courses, inspect the flange, install new peel-and-stick flashing and roof-to-wall counterflashing, then re-lay the roofing to the manufacturer’s overlap spec.
- Tile roof fasten-on failures at ES Windows side channels. Concrete tile is heavy, and older Palm Beach homes with ES Windows aluminum frame lines sometimes have tile battens screwed too close to the window jamb. The vibration and weight crack the tile at the frame line. We cut a clean straight edge at the window, replace the damaged tile, and re-set the jamb flashing so the tile doesn’t bear on the frame.
- Metal roof oil-canning and panel movement at ES Windows curbs. Standing seam and 5V-crimp metal roofs expand and contract in Florida sun. Where a metal panel butts against an ES Windows frame, thermal movement loosens the closure strips and rivets. We re-secure panels with the same metal gauge, giving the panel a proper relief joint at the window.
- Shingle granule buildup in ES Windows weep holes. This one surprises people. Over time, shingle granules wash off the roof, collect in the window track, and clog the weep system on ES Windows sliders and fixed units. That trapped water migrates into the frame and shows up as staining. We clear the path, re-slope the sill pan if needed, and re-point the shingle edge to slow future granule loss.
- Leak-masquerading window failures that are actually roof failures. Homeowners often call us convinced their ES Windows unit is defective, and what we find is a roof penetration uphill - a vent boot, a valley, a cracked tile - sending water down the underlayment into the window opening. We trace the water path before touching the window. That diagnostic step saves thousands.
Our ES Windows Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process
- 1
Call and the job walk. You reach a live person at (561) 831-7863. We schedule a free estimate and inspect the ES Windows unit and the surrounding roof plane together.
- 2
Water-path diagnosis. We identify whether the failure is roof-origin or window-origin first, then list the repair on paper. You get a written line-item quote before work starts.
- 3
Parts decision. If an ES Windows component needs replacement, we tell you the OEM cost and a quality aftermarket option if one exists. If the window is still under warranty, we show you what to file with ES Windows before we touch it.
- 4
Roof-to-frame work. We remove the disturbed roofing material, replace flashing and sealant, re-lay shingle, tile, or metal to slope the water away from the frame, and clean all debris from the window track and weep channels.
- 5
Water test and cleanup. We run a targeted water test at the repair zone, walking the inside of the window to confirm nothing is passing. Then we haul away old roofing and let you know what we found.
- 6
Your guarantee. Every job is covered by the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If something we installed fails, we come back and make it right.
What ES Windows Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Palm Beach
What you’ll pay in Palm Beach depends on material type, damage extent, and whether the ES Windows frame itself is still sound. From our recent jobs:
- Shingle repair around one ES Windows unit: $350 to $850, including flashing and localized shingle replacement.
- Tile repair at an ES Windows frame: $500 to $1,200 when we’re re-setting battens, replacing cracked tile, and re-flashing.
- Metal roof-to-window panel work: $600 to $1,500, depending on panel profile and the number of closure strips and fasteners replaced.
- Full roof-to-window re-flashing on multiple ES Windows units: $2,000 to $5,500 on a typical Palm Beach home.
The cost moves on three things: whether we find hidden wood rot at the frame, whether the ES Windows unit itself has damage that a roofing repair can’t solve, and whether the existing roof covering is code-compatible with the window’s tested assembly. We give exact pricing before we start, with no change orders snuck in at the end. Call (561) 831-7863 to schedule a free estimate at your Palm Beach home.
Why Palm Beach Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work
We’ve been in business since 2011, and though most people know us for impact windows and doors, our roofing work grew out of the same problem Palm Beach homeowners kept calling us about: the roof isn’t separate from the window, and when one fails, the other follows. Ed Winslow’s been on more ES Windows roofs in Palm Beach than he can count, including along the estate corridors where clean tile lines and proper step flashing aren’t optional.
We’re a locally owned company with a published address and license number. Calls are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and every technician who arrives at your door is background-checked and in uniform. We also install PGT, CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems products, so if your ES Windows unit needs full replacement while we’re addressing the roof, we can quote that work too. You won’t get a ticket number from us. You’ll get Ed’s cell phone, and his word.
FAQs
Does repairing or replacing the roof around my ES Windows product void the window warranty?
No, not if the work is done without altering the frame, flange, or sealant system in ways that conflict with ES Windows’ installation instructions. As an independent ES Windows service provider, we’re careful to flag any work that might affect a warranty claim before we proceed. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll walk you through what’s safe and what isn’t.
How fast can you get to my Palm Beach home for an ES Windows roofing problem?
Most estimates happen within two to four business days. If you’re seeing active water intrusion at an ES Windows unit during a Palm Beach storm cycle, we’ll do everything we can to get eyes on it sooner. Call (561) 831-7863 and tell us what you’re seeing, and we’ll let you know honestly how soon we can be there.
Will the price change once the job starts?
No. We quote a fixed number after diagnostics, and if we find the underlying damage is bigger than the quote assumes, we stop and tell you before any additional work begins. The estimate you approve is the price you pay. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free quote.
Do you replace ES Windows products if the roofing repair uncovers a failed window?
We don’t sell or install ES Windows products, but we do install PGT, CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems windows, and we can quote you a replacement from one of those brands if your ES Windows unit is beyond repair. We’ll give you a straight answer on what can be saved and what can’t. Call (561) 831-7863.
Can you work on a tile roof without breaking more tile around my ES Windows frames?
Yes. Our roofers remove tile by hand course by course near window frames, and we keep spares on hand for the tile patterns most common in Palm Beach. If a tile is going to break, we tell you before it happens, not after the fact. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll explain the approach for your specific roof.
Do you pull permits for ES Windows roofing work in Palm Beach?
Yes, when the scope requires a permit, we pull it. Many of the repairs we do are maintenance-only and don’t require one, but if your job crosses into re-roof territory, we’ll handle the permit and the inspection. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll tell you what your job needs.
My name’s on the truck. That’s reason enough to do it right.
