Roof Repair in Palm Beach - Free Roof Inspection, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Roof Repair Across Palm Beach

Roof repair in Palm Beach typically runs $450-$1,800 for most leaks, fastener replacements, and flashing work, with full tile or metal panel replacement pushing higher. Most repairs on the island take one to two days once we’re on site, though ARCOM compliance for historic homes can add a pre-approval step. We know this island. Salt air from both the Atlantic and the Lake Worth Lagoon means your roof ages differently here than it does five miles inland in West Palm Beach. Call (561) 831-7863 and a live person answers. Every time.

Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and it’s on every repair we do in Palm Beach. We’ve been answering the phone around the clock since 2011, and our techs arrive in uniform, background-checked, and ready to tell you exactly what’s wrong before we touch a shingle. No voicemail loops. No call centers. Just a neighbor you can call at 2 a.m. and someone will actually answer.

Key Takeaways

• Most Palm Beach roof repairs run $450-$1,800, with coastal-spec materials adding roughly 20-30% over inland pricing.
• Standard galvanized fasteners fail in 5-7 years here due to dual-front salt air. We specify 316 stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware on every coastal repair.
• The Town of Palm Beach requires ARCOM approval for visible roof work on historic Mediterranean Revival homes. We handle that paperwork.
• Free estimates. $40 off any repair over $200. 10% discount for seniors and veterans, permanently.

Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Roof Repair Company

We’re not a national chain handing you a ticket number. We’re locally owned, owner-operated, and we’ve built our reputation in South Florida one roof at a time since 2011. Palm Beach homeowners call us because we answer the phone live, we show up when we say we will, and we don’t pad invoices after the fact. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami area office, but crews serve Palm Beach locally and know the island’s streets, its building department, and its quirks.

Our Palm Beach customers keep calling back because we do something most roofers won’t: we tell you the truth about materials. The cheap galvanized flashing that works fine in Greenacres will rust through on Seabreeze Avenue within a decade. We’d rather lose a bid than install something we know will fail. That’s not marketing. That’s just how Ed runs the business.

Every job comes with the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s a century-long standard of accountability. No national chain can match it because no national chain has Ed Winslow’s name on the shingle.

Our Roof Repair Services in Palm Beach

Leak Detection and Repair

Most Palm Beach roof leaks aren’t where the water shows up. Water travels along underlayment, beams, and insulation before it stains your ceiling. Our crews trace the actual entry point, often finding rusted fasteners or failed flashing on the Intracoastal side of the property where salt wicking is worst. Repairs typically run $450-$900 depending on how many tile courses we need to lift and reseat.

Tile Roof Repair and Replacement

Mizner-era clay tile roofs are everywhere in Palm Beach, especially on the estates south of Worth Avenue and along South Ocean Boulevard. Matching original patina is half the job; the other half is what’s underneath. We pull the affected tile field, replace rusted flashing with 26-gauge stainless steel, and reseat tiles over sealed marine-grade underlayment. Expect $600-$1,800 for a typical repair, more if ARCOM requires custom tile fabrication to match originals.

Flashing and Fastener Replacement

We mentioned this above, but it bears repeating: standard electro-galvanized roofing nails and screws snap within a decade on this island. Salt spray from the Atlantic and the Lake Worth Lagoon attacks fasteners from two directions simultaneously. We replace them with 316 stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized hardware. An average fastener and flashing repair runs $500-$1,200 on a Palm Beach home.

Storm Damage and Wind Mitigation Repairs

Palm Beach sits in a high-velocity hurricane zone, so any repair we make has to satisfy Miami-Dade and Florida Product Approval requirements. That matters for two reasons: your roof stays put in a storm, and your wind mitigation report improves, which can lower your windstorm premium. We match design pressures to each opening and never spec a rating above +/-100 PSF unless the engineering calls for it. Repair pricing after storm events ranges from $700-$2,500 depending on scope, and we handle the insurance paperwork photos for you.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach

We install and repair products from eight authorized brands, including PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. For roof repair, that means we’re familiar with the flashings, curbs, and penetration details these manufacturers specify for coastal installations. If your Palm Beach home has impact-rated skylights or roof-adjacent glazing from CGI or ECO Window Systems, we know how to tie in the roofing membrane so the warranty stays intact. We stock common replacement parts for Palm Beach customers, which keeps turnaround faster than ordering from a distributor every time a fastener lets go.

Common Roof Repair Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes

• Rusted fasteners on the Intracoastal side. Standard electro-galvanized nails and screws snap within 5-7 years along the Lake Worth Lagoon side of the island. When they snap, tiles lift, shingles flap, and the next storm finds the gap. We replace every fastener we touch with 316 stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware.
• Failed valley flashing on 1920s-1940s estates. We see this constantly on Mediterranean Revival homes along Seabreeze Avenue and South Ocean Boulevard. The original steel flashing rusts through, saltwater wicks under the tiles, and the substrate starts corroding. The fix is stainless steel flashing and reseated tiles over marine-grade underlayment, done carefully so the patina stays consistent.
• Unsealed ridge caps and hip joints. Wind-driven saltwater gets under unsealed caps, delaminating the foam adhesives beneath clay or concrete tile. You won’t see it from the ground, but it’s happening. We seal every joint we open with marine-grade sealants rated for continuous salt exposure.
• Rusted decorative iron roof railings and chimney caps. Inland-grade iron rusts through at the welds within a decade on the ocean side of Palm Beach, then drips rust stains down stucco walls and fails ARCOM inspections. We spec marine-grade finishes or stainless replacements that pass the Architectural Commission’s review.

What Roof Repair Costs in Palm Beach

Here’s the honest range for the work we do most often in Palm Beach:

• Fastener and flashing replacement: $500-$1,200 depending on linear footage and roof pitch.
• Tile repair (clay or concrete, Mizner-era or modern): $600-$1,800 per repair area, more if ARCOM requires custom-matching historic tile.
• Leak detection and resealing: $450-$900, includes tracing and sealing the actual entry point.
• Storm damage repair: $700-$2,500 typical; we photograph everything for your insurance claim.
• Whole-roof fastener retrofit (coastal upgrade): $1,500-$4,000 for most island homes, depending on square footage and access.

What moves the price in Palm Beach: how many tile courses we have to lift, whether the roof is on the Atlantic or Intracoastal side (lagoonside corrosion is often worse because the salt aerosol sits lower), roof pitch and access, and whether ARCOM review applies. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free in-home measure and written line-item quote. You’ll know the exact number before any work starts.

Florida Pays You Back

There’s a real stack of incentive programs available to Palm Beach homeowners right now. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can put up to $10,000 toward qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades when funding rounds are open. Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors, which can include roof-adjacent skylights and glazed openings. The federal 25C energy credit offers 30% of product cost, up to $600 a year, on qualifying units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75-$150 in most of Palm Beach, windstorm-premium credits average around 25% on the windstorm portion of your premium. Final numbers depend on your carrier and the specific products installed. We’ll point you to the program details; we won’t promise a dollar amount the state hasn’t committed to.

One comparison worth making before you spend: impact-rated glazing versus hurricane shutters. Shutters only work if someone hangs them, and they do nothing for daily UV, sound, or energy leakage. Impact-rated windows and doors protect your opening every hour of every day, permanently. We don’t sell or install shutters. We install the permanent solution, and we’ll tell you why it’s worth the difference for a home on this island.
