If you’ve spotted water staining on a ceiling, lifted shingles after an afternoon thunderstorm, or granules collecting in your gutters, call us at (844) 901-4551.

Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and our Roof Repair team answers the phone around the clock.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lake Worth Corridor’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
We’ve been out to homes along Lake Worth Road, Boutwell Road, and the residential streets running between Congress Avenue and Military Trail enough times to recognize the patterns. These post-WWII concrete block homes are solidly built, but original roof framing and flashing details from the 1960s weren’t designed for modern storm cycles. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians show up with a written line-item quote before any work begins, not after. No trip charge applies anywhere inside our home county, which includes every Lake Worth Corridor address in 33461.
Here’s what separates us in Lake Worth Corridor: we understand that a roof problem on one of these homes often isn’t just a roof problem. The original jalousie window frames in these ranches frequently lack proper anchoring to the block, letting wind-driven rain into the wall cavity. That rots sheathing, stains ceilings, and misleads homeowners into chasing one leak when the real source is somewhere else. Most roofing contractors don’t look at windows. We do, because We can walk you through both.
Ed founded Winslow Windows & Doors in 2011, and he runs it the way he’d want a contractor to treat his own mother: upfront pricing, a live person on every call, and a Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. That promise applies to every roof repair we complete in Lake Worth Corridor.
Our Roof Repair Services in Lake Worth Corridor
Shingle Roof Repair
Most of the homes we service in Lake Worth Corridor have architectural shingle, tile, and metal roofing. South Florida’s UV intensity is relentless, breaking down the asphalt binder and causing granule loss years earlier than you’d see upstate. A typical shingle repair involving replacemed broken or lifted tabs runs $450 to $850, and we stock enough common colors to get most jobs done same-visit. Ed asks that we always inspect the underlayment while we’re up there. Hidden tears are what turn a $600 repair into a $6,000 replacement.

Roof Leak Detection and Flashing Repair
Wind-driven rain follows the path of least resistance. In Lake Worth Corridor, that usually means the joints where your roof meets your jalousie window frames, HVAC penetrations, or the original cast-iron vent stacks still poking through these older ranches. Leak tracing and reflashing typically runs $350 to $900. If the leak has been running long enough to soak into the roof deck, we’ll document it with photos and give you a written scope covering exactly what needs to come apart to fix it properly.

Tile Roof Repair
Some of the nicer streets in the Corridor feature clay or concrete tile, usually on two-story builds from the 1970s and ’80s. Cracked or displaced tiles around flashings are the most common issue we see, especially after summer storms. Individual tile replacement and re-bedding costs $300 to $700 per area. Remember that walking a tile roof incorrectly causes more damage than the repair itself, which is why our techs use foam pads, not boots.

Metal Roof Repair
Standing-seam and 5V-crimp metal roofs are showing up more often on Lake Worth Corridor homes as owners get tired of shingle cycles. We handle seam resealing, fastener replacement, and penetrations repair, usually $400 to $1,200 depending on access. Coastal salt air carries inland further than people expect, so we use marine-grade sealants rated for our humidity. A roof repair here should last, not fail again in two seasons.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lake Worth Corridor
As an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, we’re not guessing when a Lake Worth Corridor roof project crosses over into our Impact Windows in Lake Worth Corridor territory. We keep a deep stock of impact-rated units, flashing kits, and installation hardware sized for the block-and-stucco openings common throughout 33461. That means if Palm Beach County flags your jalousie windows during a re-roof permit, we can move fast on the compliance side without holding up your roof work. You don’t need three different companies on the job.
Common Roof Repair Problems We See in Lake Worth Corridor Homes
- Concealed water intrusion through original jalousie frames. The aluminum extrusions on 1950s and 1960s jalousie windows corrode along the seams, pulling away from the block enough for wind-driven rain to enter the wall and travel to the roof deck. You’ll see ceiling stains nowhere near a pipe.
- Rot along roof-to-wall intersections. Where your roof meets the exterior block wall, original flashing was often just a strip of galvanized metal with no kickout. Fifty years of humidity has taken its toll. We open the area, inspect the sheathing, replace what’s soft, and reflash with code-compliant materials.
- Granule loss accelerating under South Florida UV. The same sun that fades car paint here eats asphalt shingles. By year 12 or 15, many Lake Worth Corridor roofs are shedding granules faster than expected. Early repair extends the roof another five to seven years if caught early.
- Storm-lifted shingles at the gable ends. Lake Worth Corridor sits in a wind-borne debris region. The uplift pressure on gable-edge shingles loosens them months before you notice a leak. We check every nail, not just the ones that look bad from the ground.

FAQs — Roof Repair in Lake Worth Corridor
When a homeowner in Lake Worth Corridor pulls a roofing or addition permit, Palm Beach County inspectors routinely flag surviving jalousie windows as non-compliant openings under the Florida Building Code’s wind-borne debris provisions. Your roof repair can’t get final sign-off until those openings are addressed. That’s why our permit-ready impact window packages exist. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your permit triggers before you file it.
No. The original aluminum jalousie frames from the 1950s through ’70s were never engineered to carry the weight of laminated impact glass. Attempting to reglaze them causes sash sag, seal failure, and eventual blowout under storm loads. Full frame-and-glass Window Installation in Lake Worth Corridor is the only compliant path. Our team installs PGT and CGI impact-rated units sized for the block openings in Lake Worth Corridor homes, with Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Product Approval documentation included. We stage the window work while your roof is exposed so one inspector visit covers both scopes.
Look at where the stain is. If it’s at the perimeter of the ceiling, near an exterior wall, and roughly below a window opening, water is likely entering through the window frame and running down inside the wall before pooling at the ceiling line. We see this constantly on CBS ranch homes off Lake Worth Road and Boutwell Road. The fix is rarely just roof work; we repair the water-damaged sheathing and replace the failed window, not one without the other.
Possibly, and often significantly. After a wind-mitigation inspection (which typically costs $75 to $150), many Palm Beach County carriers apply a windstorm-premium credit for impact-rated openings. The most common figure we hear from customers is around 25% off the windstorm portion of the premium, though your carrier sets the final number. We can’t guarantee a discount, but we’ll provide the product approval documentation your inspector needs.
Lake Worth Corridor sits in Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, not the Miami-Dade High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) further south. The design pressure requirements here are slightly lower, but impact-rated glazing or approved shutter protection is still mandatory for any new or replacement opening. That’s why the jalousie windows flagged during your roof permit can’t simply be swapped for standard single-pane glass. We’ll match the design pressures to your specific opening and wind zone, and we’ll never install a unit rated above +/-100 for a home that doesn’t need it.
What Roof Repair Costs in Lake Worth Corridor
Roof repairs themselves are the smaller line item. The windows and doors that often ride along on a permit are where real numbers come in. In Lake Worth Corridor, expect impact windows generally between $800 and $1,500 per window installed, depending on size and design pressure. Impact single-hung units run $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings such as picture windows or architectural shapes fall between $2,500 and $5,000. Whole-home packages in this market start around $8,000 and go past $25,000 for larger ranches with many openings.
What moves the price here? Opening count drives material cost. Wind zone drives the product spec. Floor height and access drive labor on two-story sections. And whether your original frames need full replacement (they almost always do on these 1960s CBS homes) eliminates the reglazing shortcut some contractors price. We offer a free in-home measure and a written quote so you know the real number before anything is ordered. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule yours.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida’s incentive stack is real, and we’ve seen it drive down the effective cost of window work significantly in Lake Worth Corridor. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax entirely. At the federal level, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, windstorm-premium credits often land around 25% on the windstorm portion of the premium. We can’t promise what your carrier or the state will approve, but we’ll provide the paperwork and product approvals that make the applications straightforward.
One thing worth considering before you commit: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters are cheaper per opening, but they only protect your home when someone is home to deploy them. Permanently installed impact windows protect whether you’re there or not. For Lake Worth Corridor families who evacuate or travel during storm season, the permanent option means not worrying about whether the panels got hung before the rain started.
Why Opening Up an Older Lake Worth Corridor Home Changes the Quote
Here’s the thing about these 1960s CBS ranches: they hide things. When we open a roof line to repair framing or sheathing, we regularly find outdated wiring sharing the same cavities, undersized rafters that someone sistered with scrap lumber, and failed waterproofing at the wall-to-roof transition. In Lake Worth Corridor, the big one is original jalousie windows with corroded sashes that have been leaking air and water into the roof assembly for decades. That’s the surprise no one budgets for.
We handle it differently than most. Inspection comes first, before any contract is signed. We write allowances into the scope for exactly these discoveries, so you’re not blindsided when the drywall comes down and the real condition reveals itself. Any change is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. No verbal “trust me” pricing. No change orders that balloon after the fact.
A few years back, on a 1960s CBS ranch off Lake Worth Road, our crew opened a wall to repair roof framing and found the original jalousie frames had corroded sashes that leaked air and water into the sheathing for years. We’d already written an allowance into the contract for this. Once the drywall was down, we installed PGT impact-rated casement windows with Miami-Dade NOA approval. The inspector signed off the same day because the new openings met wind-borne debris requirements without any rework. That’s what happens when the roofer also understands windows. Ed Winslow built this company to be exactly that.
If you’re planning a roof repair in Roof Repair in Lake Worth Corridor, don’t wait until the permit office tells you your windows don’t pass. Call (844) 901-4551 first. We’ll help you understand what your home is going to require before the inspector ever sees it. Free estimate, upfront pricing, written allowances, and a team that actually picks up the phone, 24/7.
