AfterTrusted Roof Replacement & Installation for Palm Beach Homeowners
A full roof replacement in Palm Beach typically runs $18,000 to $45,000 for an average single-family home, with premium metal or tile systems reaching $60,000 or more. Most replacements take 3 to 7 days once materials arrive, depending on the existing roof’s condition and the system you choose. If you’re wondering whether to repair or replace, call Ed Winslow at (561) 782-7525 for a straight answer and a free, line-item estimate.
Winslow Windows & Doors has been putting roofs over Palm Beach families since 2011, and Ed’s name is on the door and on every job we do. That means something in a coastal town where salt air, hurricane-force winds, and relentless UV punish a roof year after year. We’re locally owned, we’re owner-operated, and when you call, a live person answers. Not a call center. Not a voicemail loop. A neighbor who knows exactly what a Palm Beach roof goes through.
Our Done Right Promise backs every installation. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job.
What Our Roof Replacement & Installation Service Includes
The roof over your head does more than shed rain. It holds your home together when a tropical storm pushes 90-mile-per-hour gusts off the Atlantic, and it determines whether your air conditioning bill spikes in August. Here’s exactly what we handle when we take on a Palm Beach Roof Replacement & Installation.
Full Roof Replacement
When a roof reaches the end of its service life, patching becomes a losing game. We tear off the old system down to the decking, inspect every sheet of plywood or OSB for rot and fastener failure, and rebuild from the substrate up. In Palm Beach, we frequently find decking that’s softened from years of humidity intrusion around old nail penetrations. If the wood is compromised, we replace it before a single shingle or tile goes down. Homeowners who’ve had patchwork repairs in the past usually discover leaks recurred because nobody addressed what was happening underneath.
New Roof Installation
New construction and additions need a roof installed right from day one, because mistakes here compound for decades. We coordinate with your builder or general contractor, install the full underlayment and fastening system, and make sure every penetration, valley, and flashing detail meets Miami-Dade County wind standards. Ed personally reviews every new-install job before sign-off. That’s the advantage of hiring an owner who still walks the roof, not a project manager three states away.
Shingle Roof Installation
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most common roofing system in Palm Beach for good reason: they’re cost-effective, quick to install, and modern impact-rated options stand up to hail and wind-driven debris. We install shingles with upgraded synthetic underlayment, which lasts far longer than traditional felt and resists the humidity that breaks down cheaper materials in South Florida’s climate. Proper nail placement and ventilation are the difference between a shingle roof that lasts 15 years and one that lasts 25. We get both right.
Tile Roof Installation
Barrel tile and flat concrete tile are iconic across Palm Beach’s Mediterranean and Spanish Colonial architecture, and they demand a roofing crew that understands weight, underlayment, and the specific attachment methods required in a High Velocity Hurricane Zone. We install tile systems that look period-appropriate while meeting current wind codes, including the secondary water barrier that tile roofs in Miami-Dade and Palm Beach County must have. If an old tile roof is failing, we often can’t simply patch it, because the underlayment beneath is the actual waterproofing layer. We’ll tell you honestly whether yours can be salvaged or needs a full re-roof.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and corrugated metal roofs have moved from commercial buildings to high-end residential across Palm Beach, and they offer exceptional wind resistance, a 40 to 60 year lifespan, and a modern profile that complements contemporary Florida architecture. We install metal systems with the correct fastening clips, panel gauges, and trim details that prevent the oil-canning and seam failure you see on cheap metal jobs. Salt air accelerates corrosion on low-grade fasteners, so we spec stainless or coated hardware on every coastal installation. Done right, a metal roof is likely the last one you’ll buy.

Brands We Service for Roof Replacement & Installation
We install roofing systems from manufacturers that engineer specifically for Florida’s wind and water conditions, and we’re an authorized installer for PGT and CGI, two of the most respected names in impact-rated building products. While PGT and CGI are known primarily for impact windows and doors, their parent companies and manufacturing partners produce roofing-adjacent components and underlayment systems we trust in coastal applications.
We also work with CWS for complementary exterior systems, because a Palm Beach home performs best when the roof, windows, and doors are all engineered to the same wind standard. Whether your home calls for a specific brand’s roofing system or you need guidance on what works best at your elevation and exposure, we’ll walk you through the options without pushing you toward whatever has the highest margin. If you already have an estimate from another contractor, bring it to us for a free second opinion.
Signs You Need Roof Replacement & Installation Right Now
Most Palm Beach roofs don’t fail suddenly. They give warning signs for months or years first, and catching them early can mean the difference between a repair and a full replacement. Here’s what to look for.
- Granules collecting in your gutters or at downspout bases. Asphalt shingles shed ceramic granules as they age, and a heavy accumulation means the shingle’s protective layer is nearly gone. In Palm Beach’s UV intensity, a roof shedding granules is a roof that’s maybe one rainy season away from exposed mat and active leaks.
- Water stains on ceilings or walls after ordinary rainfall. A stain that appears without a named storm means your underlayment or flashing has already failed. By the time water reaches drywall, it’s been moving through your attic or wall cavity long enough to promote mold, and the repair usually needs to address more than the visible spot.
- Curling, cracking, or missing shingles after wind events. Shingles that lift at the corners or snap clean off mean the adhesive strip has lost its grip and the fastener pattern may not meet current codes. If you’re picking shingles out of your yard after every summer thunderstorm, your roof is telling you it’s done.
- Daylight visible through the roof deck in your attic. Go up with a flashlight on a sunny afternoon. If you can see pinpoints or slivers of light through the decking, water can get through too. This is a sign of advanced deck deterioration that a simple shingle overlay will never fix.
- A roof that’s 20 years old or older in a coastal climate. Even the best-installed asphalt roof fights a losing battle against the salt, sun, and wind of Palm Beach. If your shingle roof hit the two-decade mark, a professional inspection is the cheapest insurance you’ll ever buy, and replacement planning should start now, while you have options and not an active emergency.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Process - Step by Step
You’ve heard horror stories about roofing crews that show up late, leave debris in the yard, and vanish when problems arise. Here’s how we run our Roof Replacement & Installation in West Palm Beach and throughout the area, so you know what to expect from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.
- 1
Free on-site inspection and estimate. Ed or a senior crew lead walks your roof, documents its condition with photos, and gives you a written, line-item quote. We explain what we found, what’s urgent, what can wait, and what the honest scope of work looks like. No trip charge inside Palm Beach County, and no pressure to sign before you’ve had time to think.
- 2
Material selection and permit handling. We help you choose the right roofing system for your home’s architecture, exposure, and budget, then we handle the permit application with Palm Beach County. We pull permits on every full replacement, and we don’t start work until the permit is approved and posted. That protects you, your insurance, and your resale value.
- 3
Tear-off and deck inspection. The day we start, we protect your landscaping with tarps and plywood, remove the old roofing, and inspect the decking inch by inch. Any rotted or delaminated wood is replaced and documented with photos before we proceed. You’ll never pay a surprise change order for decking that we “discovered” mid-job, because we walk it with you.
- 4
Installation of underlayment, roofing, and flashing. We install the full system: synthetic or peel-and-stick underlayment, the roofing material you selected, and new flashing at every penetration, wall junction, valley, and chimney. Every fastener is checked, every seam is inspected, and our crew lead signs off before we move to the next section.
- 5
Final inspection, cleanup, and walkthrough. We sweep the property with a magnetic roller to catch every stray nail, haul away all debris, and meet with you to review the finished roof. We also schedule the final county inspection when required and stand behind the work with our Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we come back and make it right.
How Much Does Roof Replacement & Installation Cost in Palm Beach?
A typical asphalt shingle roof replacement in Palm Beach runs $18,000 to $30,000 for a 2,000 to 2,500 square foot home, depending on the roof’s pitch, the number of existing layers, and whether decking repairs are needed. Tile roofing typically runs $28,000 to $45,000 for the same footprint, reflecting higher material costs and the additional labor tile demands. Metal roofing runs $30,000 to $60,000 or more, depending on panel profile, gauge, and whether you choose standing seam or exposed fastener.
What moves the price? Roof complexity matters more than square footage. A steep, multi-plane roof with valleys, chimneys, and skylights requires far more labor than a simple gable of the same size. Decking condition is the wildcard; if 40% of your plywood is soft, that’s a material and labor cost you should know about before the first nail comes out. And code compliance matters. Palm Beach County is in a High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means specific underlayment, fastening, and material requirements that cost more upfront but perform dramatically better in a storm.
How do you avoid overpaying? Get a line-item quote that separates materials, labor, decking, permits, and disposal. Get a second opinion. Our free second opinion on any written estimate has saved Palm Beach homeowners thousands when an out-of-town sales crew inflated a quote. And ask who’s actually doing the work. A company that subs out to the low bidder can’t control quality the way we can with our own uniformed, background-checked crews.
