PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing in Palm Beach: What to Know First

PGT shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Palm Beach is work we handle as an independent PGT service provider, and most jobs run one to three days depending on scope and material type. We don’t sell you a new roof because it’s easier for us; we repair what’s repairable and replace what isn’t, with upfront pricing before we touch anything. If you own a PGT roof system and something’s not right, this page tells you exactly what to expect from us.

How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• PGT shingle roofs losing granule adhesion in salt air. Palm Beach’s coastal moisture accelerates granule loss on PGT shingle systems, especially on east-facing slopes that catch the morning sun after a damp night. Granules collect in gutters and the shingles start looking spotted. We inspect for this during every shingle roof call, because once the asphalt substrate is exposed, the clock’s ticking. Our fix is a section replacement when localized, or a full re-roof when the loss covers more than 40% of a slope.
• Tile mortaring failing at the hips and ridges on PGT tile installations. We regularly see PGT tile roofs in Palm Beach where the mortar at hips and ridges has cracked away from thermal expansion, and a loose tile is the first thing a homeowner notices. The real issue is often the underlayment underneath has started drying out from water wicking in around those cracked mortar joints. We re-set tiles with flexible polymer mortar and repair or replace the underlayment before it becomes a deck problem.
• Metal panel seam separation on PGT standing seam roofs after tropical storm cycles. Repeated wind loading from Palm Beach storms works PGT metal panel seams loose over time, and the first sign is usually a faint rattling during gusty nights or a hairline gap at a seam. Water gets in slowly and quietly. We re-crimp or replace the affected panels and re-seal with the correct metal-to-metal sealant, not whatever’s on the truck.
• Flashing failures around PGT roof penetrations. Pipe boots, vents, and skylight curbs are where Palm Beach’s intense UV breaks down flashing material long before the roofing material itself fails. We see this on PGT shingle, tile, and metal systems alike. We replace worn flashing with material matched to the roof type, and in salt-air zones we upgrade to stainless or lead flashings when the original is galvanized.
• Underlayment degradation hidden under perfectly good PGT tile. On many Palm Beach estates, the tile looks fine but the underlayment beneath is 20 years old and done. We check attic-side for water staining and deck-side for brittleness. If the tile is still sound, we do a lift-and-relay: remove the tile, replace the underlayment, re-install the same tile. That’s a big cost difference from a full tile replacement, and it’s the kind of call we’d make at our own house.

What PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Palm Beach

PGT shingle roof repairs in Palm Beach typically run $350 to $800 for localized section work. Tile re-setting and re-mortaring runs $450 to $1,200 depending on how many tiles and whether underlayment is involved. Metal seam re-crimping and flashing replacement ranges $400 to $900. A full PGT shingle re-roof on a 2,000-square-foot Palm Beach home generally falls between $11,000 and $16,000, while full tile replacement can reach $28,000 or more. Lift-and-relay of sound tile with new underlayment is usually 40% to 50% less than full tile replacement.

What moves the price: roof pitch, number of penetrations, condition of the deck, and whether we’re repairing or replacing. You’ll know the number before we start. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free estimate.
