We know Wellington’s housing stock because we climb on it every week. The subdivisions south of Forest Hill Boulevard and east of South Shore are dense with late-1970s and 1980s concrete-block ranch homes whose original roofing felt, valley metal, and pipe-boot flashings are all failing on the same five-year timeline. That’s not a guess. It’s what we see when we pull back old shingles in Greenview Shores, South Shore, and Palm Beach Polo.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Wellington’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow has owned this company since 2011, and his name goes on every invoice, every permit, and every job site. We’re not a franchise with a dispatch office three states away. Our crews are background-checked, uniformed, and familiar with Wellington’s HOA landscape, which matters when you’re re-roofing in communities like Olympia or The Isles at Wellington.
We answer the phone. A real person, 24/7, because roofs don’t fail on a schedule and neither do insurance deadlines. When a Wellington homeowner calls at 9 p.m. after discovering water staining on a bedroom ceiling, they don’t get a voicemail loop. They get a person who can talk through what’s urgent, what can wait until morning, and what to do right now.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation team has replaced hundreds of roofs across Wellington, and the work comes with the Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. That’s a lasting standard, and it’s backed by published licensing and a local owner you can look in the eye.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Wellington
Architectural Shingle Roof Replacement
Most Wellington tract homes built between 1978 and 1995 roll up for replacement with architectural shingle systems because they’re cost-effective, wind-rated, and accepted by every local HOA we’ve worked with. We strip to the deck, inspect the sheathing, replace damaged plywood, and install a full synthetic underlayment system before the shingles go down. The difference between our re-roofs and a cheap strip-and-slap is the attention we pay to the details that fail first in Wellington’s climate: starter strips, valley metal, and pipe-boot flashings.
Tile Roof Replacement
Wellington’s higher-end communities, including much of Palm Beach Polo and the custom equestrian estates along South Shore Boulevard, lean on concrete and clay tile roofs that have carried decades of south Florida UV and the occasional tropical-storm gust. We replace lath-and-paper tile systems down to the deck, reuse sound tile where it makes sense, and rebuild with current code underlayment. Tile roofs here cost more because the material is heavier, the labor is slower, and the underlayment spec is stricter than anything a shingle roof needs.
Metal Roof Installation
Standing-seam and stone-coated steel systems are rare in Wellington’s older subdivisions but growing fast on newer construction and estate properties where owners want a 50-year-plus exterior. Metal holds up better than any shingle system under Wellington’s afternoon thunderstorms and the UV load at 15 miles inland. We install exposed-fastener and concealed-fastener panels, and we’re honest about which one belongs on your roofline rather than your neighbor’s.
Flat and Low-Slope Roof Systems
A handful of Wellington’s mid-century and custom-built homes have low-slope sections over lanais, garages, or additions that need membrane or modified bitumen systems. These don’t drain like pitched roofs and they don’t tolerate lazy flashing work. We tie low-slope sections into the main roof with properly installed transition metal and inspect every seam before we call the job done.

Trusted Brands We Service in Wellington
We’re authorized installers for a focused lineup, and that matters when you want the product warranty to actually stick. For Wellington re-roofs, we regularly specify GAF architectural shingles, Boral or Eagle concrete tile, and Drexel or PGT-rated ancillary components. Our roofing supplier relationships mean we can stage materials in Wellington the same week the contract is signed, not three weeks later because a national chain’s warehouse is in another county. We don’t sell off-brand underlayment or generic pipe boots to shave a bid; we install the spec we’d put on Ed’s own house.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- Original underlayment failing on 1980s concrete-block ranch homes. The felt paper and old peel-and-stick membranes spec’d during Wellington’s first building wave were never designed for 30-plus years of Palm Beach County humidity. By the time we’re called, the deck often shows water staining under the felt, which means replacing sheathing sections, not just shingles.
- Valley and flashing leaks at addition seams. A lot of Wellington homes grew over the decades, and the transition where the original roof meets an add-on is the first place wind-driven rain finds a way in. We rebuild those transitions with current-code metal and sealant.
- Pipe boot and skylight curb failures. The rubber boots around plumbing vent pipes on 1990s Wellington roofs are cracked through from UV and heat. On re-roofs we replace every boot, every time, rather than reusing them to hit a lower line-item price.
- Tile fracture from foot traffic and storm debris. Concrete tile on Palm Beach Polo and equestrian estate roofs gets walked on by HVAC vendors, pest-control techs, and tree crews. Cracked and loose tile allows water to sit against the underlayment. We assess tile condition before recommending repair-only versus a full lift-and-replace.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Wellington, FL
Here’s what current Wellington roof replacement work actually costs in 2026. Architectural shingle teardown and re-roof on a standard two-story concrete-block home runs $14,000 to $24,000 depending on square count, deck repairs, and access. Concrete or clay tile replacement runs $30,000 to $55,000 for a full lift, underlayment replacement, and reinstall; metal panels on a simple hip roof start around $28,000 and climb with complexity. The spread comes down to roof size, pitch, existing deck condition, whether we’re hauling tile to a transfer station, and whether your HOA requires a specific profile. Every quote is a fixed, written, line-item price, not an estimate that drifts upward after demo day. Call (561) 468-6136 to schedule your free measure and written quote.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Wellington
If you’re anchoring a budget before you call, typical architectural roof replacement on a 2,400 square foot single-story Wellington home lands between $16,000 and $26,000. Higher-end tile or metal systems push $35,000 to $55,000 or more on estate-scale floorplans. What moves the price in Wellington specifically: our wind zone requires upgrade nails, ring-shank fasteners, and often secondary water barriers on the entire roof deck, not just at eaves, which is a material cost you don’t see in quoted online national averages. The other Wellington-specific factor is HOA approval: many communities require tile profile match, which eliminates cheap replacement options. We provide a free in-home measure and a written quote, and we walk you through every line item before you sign.
Florida Pays You Back
Several incentives stack for a Wellington re-roof when you spec wind-rated systems. Qualifying homeowners may receive a My Safe Florida Home matching grant up to $10,000 for wind-mitigation upgrades, including roof-to-deck attachment improvements. Florida’s sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors can extend to the openings adjacent to a roof project, and the federal 25C energy credit offers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying units such as Energy Star roofing materials. After a wind-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150), many Wellington carriers also apply a windstorm-premium credit averaging about 25% on the wind portion of your policy. Programs and carrier formulas set the final numbers; we’ll help you understand which documents your insurer wants as part of the complete re-roof package.
Our Take on the Fastener Problem No One Talks About
In Wellington, the salt air doesn’t reach inland the way it does on the barrier islands, but the humidity and the intensity of the sun do the same work on cheap hardware, just slower and quieter. We’ve torn off roofs in Wellington’s older subdivisions and found nails so oxidized they snap when the shingle is pulled. The problem isn’t the shingle; it’s what was under it and what was holding it down.
Here’s the honest spec difference between what gets quoted by the low-bid crew and what we write into every Wellington roof contract: hot-dip galvanized ring-shank nails instead of electro-galvanized smooth shank; stainless steel pipe-boot clamps instead of plastic collars that crack in three summers; sealed metal-to-metal transitions at every valley and chimney instead of exposed butyl strips that bake and peel. The materials bill is a few hundred dollars higher. The failure point moves a decade or two down the road.
Why the Cheap Spec Costs More Within a Decade
We get called to quote re-roofs where the prior roof was installed in 2015 and already looks like 2005. The pattern is almost always the same: electro-galvanized fasteners, the cheapest underlayment on the supply-house shelf, and flashing details skipped because they don’t show up in a drone photo. In Wellington’s wind-driven rain, water finds those seams. You pay $12,000 for a roof that should have been $14,000 properly spec’d, and then you pay $17,000 eight years later to redo it. That’s not savings. That’s what happens when the quote was built to win the bid instead of to last the building’s life.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Wellington
Most architectural shingle tear-offs and re-roofs in Wellington complete in four to seven working days once we have the permit and materials staged. If your insurer has issued a non-renewal or compliance deadline, we have the local crew capacity to sequence your job immediately behind the current project. The custom-fabrication items, like specific tile profiles or metal panel patterns, typically run four to six weeks before installation, so the sooner we walk the roof with you, the more certain your timeline is.
Yes. Wellington sits in Palm Beach County’s Wind-Borne Debris Region, so every roof deck attachment, underlayment, and outer cover must meet current Florida Building Code wind standards, which include sealed roof decks or upgraded nail patterns depending on your home’s design wind speed. Roofing isn’t like windows; there’s no inland exemption for the structure itself. We pull permits on every job and document code compliance for your insurer.
A new wind-rated roof in Wellington usually triggers a wind-mitigation credit once your property passes a wind-mitigation inspection; many carriers apply about 25% to the windstorm portion of the premium. Call (561) 468-6136 and we’ll tell you which documentation your carrier typically requests and the order they want it filed.
The material gap is modest on paper, typically $1,200 to $2,600 on a full roof, but the real difference is in fastener spec, underlayment rating, and the secondary water barrier. Coastal-spec uses hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware and a full-deck secondary barrier; inland-spec cuts those to minimum code. The cheap spec starts failing in Wellington at year five. The properly spec’d roof is usually still dry at year fifteen.
The labor and material rates are nearly identical, but Wellington’s HOA communities often restrict tile profiles and color, which narrows your vendor choices and pushes material pricing up; some communities also require color-specific underlayment or edge metal. Access is another Wellington-specific variable: zero-lot-line construction in some 1980s subdivisions means we’re staging materials over a fence line instead of pulling a trailer next to the roof.
