AfterFast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Wellington
Roof replacement in Wellington typically runs $11,000 to $28,000 for a standard CBS single-family home, with tear-off and full dry-in on a 2,000-square-foot roof usually landing between $13,500 and $19,500. Most Wellington jobs take five to eight working days once materials arrive, though custom equestrian estate structures along South Shore Boulevard can run longer. If your roof is failing, leaking, or pushing 20 years old, call (561) 660-9539 for a free in-home measure and a written line-item quote. This is the page where we explain exactly how roof replacement works in Wellington’s wind zone, what the permit triggers, and why a cheap underlayment fails here.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Wellington’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Ed Winslow put his name on this company in 2011, and he runs it the same way Wellington runs its village: accountable, local, and built to last. We’re not a national chain with a call center in another state. When you call (561) 660-9539, a real person answers, 24 hours a day. That matters in Wellington, where afternoon thunderstorms roll across the flat inland plain without warning and a roof leak at 9 p.m. needs a human voice, not a voicemail loop.
Our crews work Wellington neighborhoods every week. We know the original 1980s grid off South Shore Boulevard, the newer sections west of Wellington Trace, and the equestrian estates clustered around the polo grounds. Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and arrives with identification before the first handshake. Homeowners recognize our trucks. That’s the point. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do.
Every roof we install in Wellington carries our Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. No national chain offers that. We’re the one down the road.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Wellington
Full Roof Replacement
We tear off the old system to the deck and rebuild it in full compliance with Palm Beach County’s Florida Building Code requirements for Wellington’s 140 to 150 mph design wind speeds. That means a Florida Product Approval-listed dry-in system, mechanically fastened roof-to-wall flashing, and underlayment with a Miami-Dade NOA. A full replacement in Wellington’s CBS tract homes usually takes five to eight working days. We pull the permit, pass the inspection, and leave your roof ready for a wind mitigation certificate.
Shingle Roofing
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the smart value for most Wellington homes built between the late 1970s and early 2000s. We install high-wind-rated shingle systems with reinforced nail patterns matched to Wellington’s unobstructed inland exposure. Flat terrain means no hurricane wind attenuation, so shingles need every nail the code calls for. We don’t skip corners to hit a lower bid.
Tile Roofing
Wellington’s upscale sections and equestrian estates often carry concrete or clay tile roofs that match the Mediterranean and equestrian architecture along South Shore Boulevard. Tile replacement here requires more than swapping broken pieces. We re-engineer the roof deck, re-flash every penetration, and verify the deck can carry the tile weight plus Wellington’s wind loads. When we open a tile roof on a 1980s CBS home, we often find the deck fasteners were never up to current code.
Metal Roofing
Standing-seam and metal shingle systems are a practical answer for Wellington’s subtropical UV intensity and humidity. Metal doesn’t chalk like old vinyl, doesn’t rot like wood, and handles 140 mph winds when installed to Florida Product Approval specs. On equestrian estate accessory structures like equipment bays and stabling wings, metal roofing with properly engineered header flashing is often the only system that survives Wellington’s October storm season without leaking.

Trusted Brands We Service in Wellington
We’re an authorized installer across our product lineup, and for roof work we stock and install Florida Product Approval-listed systems from manufacturers that meet Miami-Dade and HVHZ requirements. That includes CWS and ES Windows glass and glazing components when roof replacement opens skylights, sun tunnels, or roof-deck windows in Wellington homes. For wider openings on estate properties, ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass units give us impact-rated configurations matched to the header spans. We also service and replace existing PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru windows and doors when roof work exposes failed flashing or rotted bucks. Our Wellington stock means we’re not waiting on a warehouse two counties away.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- Caulked roof-to-wall flashing on 1980s CBS homes. The original Wellington grid was built fast, and a lot of the flashing was caulked rather than mechanically fastened. A new roof lifts that old flashing, and the first summer thunderstorm finds the gap. We re-flash every roof-to-wall intersection with mechanically fastened, Florida Product Approval-listed metal.
- Big-box peel-and-stick underlayment that fails Wellington’s wind zone. A homeowner saves $1,200 on underlayment and ends up with an open permit and a roof that leaks at 70 mph. Wellington sits at 140 to 150 mph design pressure. Non-rated peel-and-stick doesn’t belong on any roof in this village.
- Rotted wood bucks around original aluminum single-pane windows. Decades of subtropical humidity seeps behind stucco and rots the wood framing around old windows. When we open the roof-to-wall intersection for a full replacement, we often find the damage spread further than expected. We fix it, with written approval before we touch it.
- Equestrian estate accessory structures with non-standard pitches and wide door headers. The roof deck on a stable wing or equipment bay doesn’t intersect walls the way a residential roof does. If the header flashing isn’t re-engineered during replacement, the new roof voids the door manufacturer’s warranty. This is routine work for us in Wellington, and almost unknown in Royal Palm Beach.
Pricing for Roof Replacement & Installation in Wellington, FL
A standard tear-off and re-roof in Wellington runs $13,500 to $19,500 for a 2,000-square-foot shingle roof on a CBS home, including permit, dry-in, and haul-off. Tile replacement runs higher, usually $22,000 to $35,000, because the deck often needs structural upgrades before new tile goes down. Metal roofing spans $18,000 to $38,000 depending on profile and gauge. On equestrian estate accessory structures, wide openings and non-standard pitches push pricing to $40,000 or more when the roof deck intersects oversized door headers that require custom flashing. The single biggest variable is what we find when the old roof comes off. Rotted decking, failed waterproofing, undersized fasteners on the original roof, and windows whose bucks are rotted all change the number. We handle that with a written allowance in the contract, and any surprise is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. You’ll never see a change order you didn’t sign first.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Wellington
No. Roof replacement alone does not force impact window upgrades. But there’s a catch we always explain on Wellington homes built before 2002. When we open the roof-to-wall intersection and find the old window bucks rotted from humidity, repairing the damaged framing triggers the window opening to meet current code. That means impact-rated glazing with the proper Palm Beach County Florida Product Approval. If you’re already into the roof, it’s often the smartest time to upgrade the windows too. Call (561) 660-9539 and we’ll explain exactly what your permit will and won’t trigger.
Replacing the roof alone will improve your wind mitigation inspection only if the new roof deck and dry-in system are properly fastened and documented. Your windows do not need to be impact-rated to keep your current premium. But leaving original 1985 single-pane aluminum windows in a village at 140 to 150 mph design wind speeds means your windstorm premium will remain higher than it could be. Most Wellington homeowners pair the roof with windows over one or two seasons. Call (561) 660-9539 for an exact scope.
We treat every equestrian estate accessory structure as a custom job. The roof deck on a stabling wing or equipment bay intersects oversized door headers in ways standard residential flashing was never designed for. Our crew pulls the existing header flashing, evaluates the structural load path, and re-engineers the intersection so the new roof won’t void the door warranty. This is what separates a licensed Wellington roofer from a crew driving up from Miami for one job. Call (561) 660-9539 and ask for Ed.
Yes, and it’s measurable. Wellington sits flat and unobstructed, so your roof deck takes direct subtropical sun year-round. Old single-pane skylights and sun tunnels bleed heat into the attic and the living space below. Swapping them for Low-E insulated impact glass while the roof is open typically cuts heat gain through those openings by half or more. Combined with a well-ventilated new roof deck, most homeowners see a real drop in their summer FPL bill. We won’t promise a percentage because every house differs. Call (561) 660-9539 and we’ll walk your roof with you.
Hidden framing and waterproofing failure. On a 1980s CBS tract home in the original Wellington grid near South Shore Boulevard, our crew opened the roof-to-wall intersection and found the original aluminum single-pane windows’ wooden bucks had rotted from decades of subtropical humidity, and the roof’s existing peel-and-stick underlayment lacked any Miami-Dade NOA. That turned a clean tear-off into framing repair, glazing replacement, and a full Florida Product Approval-listed dry-in system. The homeowner’s wind mitigation inspection passed on the first visit because we caught it early and wrote the allowance into the contract before we started. In Wellington, a roof is rarely just a roof.
What Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Wellington
Let’s talk real numbers for Wellington, not national averages. A full tear-off and re-roof of a 1,800-square-foot CBS home in the original grid typically runs $13,000 to $17,500. Larger homes in the western sections of Wellington, 2,500 to 3,500 square feet, run $18,000 to $28,000. Tile is higher. Metal is higher still. Equestrian estate accessory structures with wide openings start at $25,000 and go up from there because the roof deck intersects oversized door headers and non-standard pitches.
What moves the price in Wellington specifically? Opening count. If your roof replacement includes skylights, sun tunnels, or roof-deck windows, each opening adds $800 to $1,500 for impact-rated glazing alone, and large custom openings can add $2,500 to $5,000. Wind zone matters too. Wellington sits at 140 to 150 mph design pressure, which rules out cheap non-rated flashing and underlayment. Floor height adds labor. And hidden damage, which we handle with a written allowance, never a surprise change order. Your quote is free, in writing, and line-item exact. Call (561) 660-9539.
Florida Pays You Back
Wellington homeowners have access to a stack of programs that put real money back on roof and impact upgrades. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation work, including roof-to-wall connections and impact-rated openings. Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150, most Wellington homeowners see the windstorm portion of their premium drop by roughly 25%. Programs and carriers set final numbers, so we won’t promise a figure your insurer decides. But we’ll document everything so you get every dollar available.
One comparison worth making if you’re on the fence: impact-rated roof decking and glazing versus hurricane shutters. Shutters mean panels stacked in the garage, a ladder in a storm, and openings that only protect when someone’s home to hang them. Impact-rated glass protects permanently. No panels. No midnight scramble before a storm crosses the Turnpike. In Wellington’s wind zone, we consider impact-rated the right long-term investment.
The Wellington Roof Reality: What Opening the Deck Actually Shows You
Here’s what we tell every Wellington homeowner before we sign a roof contract: the old roof is hiding something. On the original 1980s CBS tract homes, what’s underneath is rarely as clean as the last inspection sticker suggests. Rotted wood bucks. Undersized deck fasteners. Peel-and-stick underlayment that was never rated for a 140 mph wind zone. Caulked flashing that lifted years ago and has been slowly leaking into the wall cavity through every summer storm.
That’s exactly what our crew found on a 1980s home near South Shore Boulevard. The roof-to-wall intersection had original aluminum single-pane windows whose wooden bucks were compost from decades of Wellington humidity. The peel-and-stick underlayment had no NOA, no Florida Product Approval, nothing. We replaced the framing, installed impact-rated glazing with insulated glass units, tied the new roof deck into a listed dry-in system, and re-roofed. The homeowner’s wind mitigation inspection passed first visit.
We handle this the only honest way: inspection first, allowances written into the contract with specific dollar figures, and any surprise priced and approved in writing before we touch it. That’s how Ed runs this company. That’s the Done Right Promise. That’s why Wellington calls us.
