PGT Roof Replacement & Installation in Palm Beach: What to Know First
PGT roof replacement and installation in Palm Beach means working with a roof system built to handle hurricane-force wind loads, driving rain, and salt air that eats lesser materials in a few seasons. We provide independent PGT roof replacement and installation across Palm Beach, with most standard tear-off and re-roof jobs completed in three to five working days depending on decking condition. We are not the cheapest bid you will get, and we will not pretend to be. What we give you is a written line-item quote, the exact PGT system specified, and a job we stand behind with our Done Right Promise.
This page is for homeowners in Palm Beach whose PGT roof has reached the end of its service life or was damaged in a storm. If you are pricing a replacement, call (850) 801-5596 and ask for a free estimate. A live person answers, day or night.
How PGT Roof Products Fail, and How We Fix Them
PGT makes a solid roof line, but every product has a service history. Here is what we see on PGT roofs in Palm Beach, and how we address it.
- PGT WinGuard metal roof panels: fastener back-out at the eave line. The thermal cycling in Palm Beach, hot afternoons followed by quick rain and cooler nights, works fasteners loose over time. The panel looks fine from the driveway, but water finds the gap and rots the decking underneath. We pull the affected panels, inspect the decking, reset with the correct PGT-specified fasteners, and replace any compromised sheathing before the panel goes back on.
- PGT Tile Roof Systems: cracked field tiles from foot traffic. Every roof inspection walks the tiles, and every walk risks a hairline crack that lets water sit against the underlayment. In Palm Beach humidity, that standing moisture breeds mold on the substrate within a season. We replace the cracked tile, check the underlayment for softness, and reseal the batten line so the repair sheds water the way the original install did.
- PGT SentryShield composite shingle: granule loss and UV degradation. Salt-laden air off the Atlantic accelerates granule shedding on composite shingle lines. Once the granule layer thins, the asphalt core bakes in the sun and the shingle turns brittle. We see this most often on west-facing roof planes in neighborhoods like Sunshine Park and El Cid. If the decking is still sound, a full shingle replacement restores the roof. If the granule loss is isolated to one plane, we replace that plane and blend the color line carefully.
- PGT FlatLite low-slope membrane: ponding water at the scupper box. Palm Beach gets sudden, heavy downpours that overwhelm scupper drains on low-slope PGT systems. Water ponds, the membrane seam flexes, and eventually the seam opens. We pull the membrane at the seam, dry the decking, apply the new PGT-rated membrane in a single unbroken run, and re-set the scupper box with proper slope so water moves off the roof instead of sitting on it.
- Flashing failures at roof-to-wall transitions on PGT impact-rated systems. This is not a PGT defect. It is an installation shortcut. The spec calls for a double layer of peel-and-stick membrane at every wall intersection. Some crews skip the second layer to save an hour. In Palm Beach, where wind-driven rain hits walls sideways, that shortcut becomes a ceiling stain in the living room. We pull the flashing, install the full PGT-spec detail, and pressure-test the area before the job is closed.
Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Here is how a PGT roof replacement with TruePane Windows & Doors goes from start to finish in Palm Beach.
- 1
Call and schedule a free site visit. We walk the roof, check the decking, note the existing PGT system, and talk through what you are seeing from inside the house. Roof problems often show up as ceiling stains or attic dampness before they show up as missing shingles.
- 2
Written line-item quote. We put the system, the square footage, the labor, the disposal, and the warranty registration on paper. No surprise line items on the back end. If the decking is rotten, we price the replacement we are confident we will need, and we tell you before we start.
- 3
Materials ordered and scheduled. We order the PGT system specified. For full replacements, we schedule the tear-off around weather windows. Palm Beach afternoons are unpredictable, so we start early and keep a weather eye on the radar all day.
- 4
Tear-off and decking inspection. Once the old roof is off, we inspect the sheathing. Any rot, any soft spot, any termite damage we find gets flagged, repaired, and documented before new materials go down.
- 5
Installation to PGT spec. Underlayment, flashing details, panels or shingles, fasteners, and ridge assemblies go in exactly as PGT specifies. No shortcuts on peel-and-stick at the eaves, no skipped clips on metal panels.
- 6
Final walk, warranty registration, and clean-up. We walk the roof with you when possible, register both warranty layers in writing, and leave the property cleaner than we found it. If something is not right, you call and we come back. That is the Done Right Promise.
What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Palm Beach
Roof replacement pricing in Palm Beach depends on the system, the square footage, the decking condition, and the roof’s pitch and accessibility. Here are the ranges we quote on PGT work.
- PGT metal roof panel replacement (partial, one plane): $4,800 - $9,200 depending on panel count and eave repair
- PGT tile roof replacement (full, 2,000 sq ft home): $28,000 - $52,000 depending on tile profile and underlayment condition
- PGT SentryShield composite shingle roof (full): $14,000 - $26,000 for a typical Palm Beach ranch or split-level
- PGT FlatLite low-slope membrane replacement: $8,500 - $18,000 depending on decking repairs and scupper rework
- Decking repair (per sheet, where rot is found): $110 - $180 per sheet
What moves the price: decking condition is the biggest variable, followed by roof pitch and access. Steeper roofs in older Palm Beach neighborhoods with tight setbacks cost more in labor and safety gear. The quote you get from us is the price you pay.

Why Palm Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for PGT Work
We have been working in Palm Beach County for more than four decades, and Dale Kessler founded TruePane on a simple rule: if the frame is right and the glass is rated, the rest is just following through. That applies to roofs too, because a PGT roof is a structural system, not a cosmetic cover. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They measure twice. They quote the PGT line item by line item. And they register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
When a PGT system is not the right fit, we also work with CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, quoted side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying. We are not the cheapest bid. We are the last call you should have to make. And we answer the phone 24/7 with a live person, because when a Palm Beach roof leaks, voicemail does not fix it.
FAQs
Yes. We are an independent PGT service provider, which means we can install and repair PGT roof systems but we do not claim PGT authorization. The work is done to PGT specifications, and we register the manufacturer warranty in writing. What changes is the warranty path: PGT handles the product layer, and our Done Right Promise covers workmanship. If you want to know whether your specific PGT system is still under factory coverage, call (850) 801-5596 and we will walk you through it before any work begins.
Most full PGT roof replacements in Palm Beach take three to five working days from tear-off to final clean-up. Partial repairs like a single-plane panel replacement or tile patching usually finish in one day. Weather is the wild card. We do not pull a roof off if a storm is within six hours, because drying that decking costs you time and money. Call (850) 801-5596 for an estimate and a schedule that works around Palm Beach’s afternoon rain pattern.
If the decking is sound and the damage is localized, like a handful of cracked tiles or one panel run with fastener back-out, repair is the right call. If the granule loss is widespread, the underlayment is delaminating, or the flashing details were never done to spec, replacement is cheaper than repeated patching. We will show you the photos and the measurements, then let you decide. Estimates are free at (850) 801-5596.
Yes. Roof replacement in Palm Beach requires a permit, and we pull it ourselves. The inspection gets scheduled, and we stay on it until it passes. We do not leave the homeowner chasing the building department. If you have had an unpermitted roof done before, we will tell you what the inspector is going to flag before we start. Call (850) 801-5596 to talk it through.
It will change only if the decking is in worse shape than the visual inspection indicated, and only for the actual sheets that get replaced. We price decking repair per sheet at a set rate, and we show you the rotten wood before we cut it out. No blanket “unforeseen conditions” line items, no change order language that doubles the bill. We tell you, you approve it, then we fix it. That is a square deal. Call (850) 801-5596 for a free estimate.
