Lifetime Workmanship WarrantyMolsbee Roofing installs metal roofs in Juno Beach, most often standing seam, whose clips sit hidden under the seams and out of the salt air blowing in from the Atlantic. A roofer measures each plane, reads the deck and the perimeter, and returns a written price that names the panel gauge, the finish, the trim and the fastener alloy.
Metal suits this coast because it has no granule surface for salt and sand to wear away, but on the oceanfront the roof lasts only as long as its trim and fixings, and we file the permit on the town's own application with inspections through MGO Connect. Three generations of one family have roofed this county since 1975; we are licensed CCC1327429, give a lifetime workmanship warranty on the installation, and answer 561-318-8624 at any hour.
An exposed-fastener panel is held down by screws driven through the metal, each sealed by a rubber washer that hardens with age. On an oceanfront house every elevation takes salt, so every screw is a small seal that is slowly giving up.
Standing seam fixes the panel with clips under the seam and leaves the weather a continuous sheet. It is the dearer system and, this close to the water, the one we recommend.
Metal roofs fail at their edges, laps and penetrations, not in the middle of a panel. Ridge cap, hip and rake trim, valley metal, clips, fasteners and the sealant at each termination all need specifying for salt air, because an inland grade corrodes first on the seaward side.
Our written price names the grade of each of those parts, not only the panel, so the quote shows what will actually hold the roof on.
A light finish reflects much of the sun off a roof that takes full exposure from the water, which helps keep the house below it cooler. The finish system also decides how the panel looks after years facing the surf, since a low-grade coating chalks and fades on the seaward side first.
We tell you which finish system we are quoting and what its manufacturer warranty covers, in writing, next to our lifetime workmanship warranty on the installation.
The panel itself needs no sea turtle approval. If the metal re-roof also adds a skylight, moves soffit lights or brings uplighting to a chimney, it does, because the protection zone covers every property within 600 feet landward of the mean high-water line and governs lighting and new glazing.
We list any of those items in the scope and file that approval alongside the town permit, so it never surfaces a week before the start date.
On a metal reroof in Juno Beach, the permit through MGO Connect portal and any appearance review decide when the panels can be ordered, so we settle them before the material.
Juno Beach's Building Department at 340 Ocean Drive takes the roofing permit on MGO Connect, and inspections are booked online only, weekdays 8 to 4 with a 4 pm cut-off for the next day. The Architectural Review Board enters only when a renovation exceeds half the structure's value, so a like-for-like re-roof normally does not go before it.
Work hours are 7 am to 6 pm Monday to Friday and 9 to 5:30 on Saturday; nothing on Sundays or holidays. The town publishes no review time for roofing permits, and we do not invent one.
The whole town is in the 170 mph wind band and the wind-borne debris region; on our re-roofs a self-adhered secondary water barrier goes over the deck before the new roof.

More than a shingle roof, and the gap between two metal quotes lies mostly in the details. Panel type, gauge and finish, the trim and fastener grades, the number of penetrations and how much deck needs replacing all move the number, and standing seam costs more than exposed-fastener panel.
Our county re-roof figures are on the roof replacement cost page; the free inspection gives you a written price with each of those items on its own line.
Corrosion in the parts around the panel, not the panel itself. Salt air attacks screws, washers, trim, flashings and any cut edge left unsealed, and those fail first on the side facing the ocean.
Mixing metals is another cause, since some pairings corrode each other in salt air. Specify every part for the coast and keep dissimilar metals apart, and a metal roof on a Juno Beach house holds up well.
Yes. The town's own building department issues it on the Town of Juno Beach application rather than the county-wide universal form, and the file goes in on MGO Connect, with inspections booked online by the afternoon before.
The Architectural Review Board sits only when a renovation exceeds half the structure's value, so a like-for-like re-roof normally skips it, though switching covering can draw an association review in Oak Harbour or Juno Isles.
Not on age alone. What decides it is the condition of the metal, the underlayment and the deck.
On the oceanfront a roof of that age often has a sound covering with tired flashings and fasteners, and renewing those can be the right call. If the underlayment has failed across several slopes, or this year's repairs are nearing the quarter-roof line for a section, replacement is usually the better money.
The inspection gives you both prices.
Phone 561-318-8624 or book the free roof inspection through the site. A roofer measures each plane, checks the deck and perimeter, notes every penetration and photographs the lot.
The written price separates tear-off, deck allowance, underlayment, the panel with gauge and finish, trim, clips and fasteners with grades named, the town permit and inspections, and cleanup, so you can compare it line for line.
