Molsbee Roofing finds and repairs roof leaks in Juno Beach, on houses in Oak Harbour and Juno Isles and on the condominium buildings along Ocean Drive. A roofer traces the water back to where it entered, usually a flashing, a valley, a pipe collar or a drain rather than the covering, photographs it and prices the repair in writing before any work begins, with the photographs attached.
Near the Atlantic the metal that seals a roof wears out long before the tile or shingle does, so we read the whole perimeter, not just the patch of roof above the stain, and the repair permit goes on the town's own application. Founded by Don Molsbee in 1975 and still family-run, we roof under license CCC1327429 from Lake Worth Beach as a GAF Certified Contractor and Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, every repair carries our lifetime workmanship warranty, and 561-318-8624 is answered at any hour.

Fixing a leak in Juno Beach
Why the ceiling stain is rarely under the leak
Water that gets in at a flashing runs along the underlayment, a rafter or the deck before it drips through a ceiling, often well away from where it entered. Patching the roof above the stain is how a house gets repaired again and again and still leaks.
We start at the perimeter, work through every valley, collar and flashing, and open the covering only where the evidence points.
Condominium leaks on Ocean Drive start on the roof deck
In an oceanfront building, the unit reporting the leak is where the water came out, not where it got in. We survey the whole roof deck, run water through the drains and scuppers, check each seam and edge detail, and write it up so the association can act on one clear finding instead of chasing ceilings from unit to unit.
A permit for repair work, filed with the town
Juno Beach takes its own permit application for roof work, repairs included, rather than the county-wide universal form, and inspections are booked online through MGO Connect. A contractor who files the county form on a small repair loses days while water keeps coming in.
We file the town's form with the product approvals attached, and the finished repair sits on the town's record, which helps when the house is sold.
What sets the price of a Juno Beach leak repair
The failed detail and what the water has reached since. Near the water the small end is a resealed pipe collar, a length of drip edge or one wall flashing.
The large end is a valley rebuilt with new metal, or underlayment renewed under tile; on clay barrel tile that is detach-and-reset, lifting the tile, replacing the underlayment and resetting the same tile. Soft deck found under the leak is photographed and priced as its own line.
The full price is in writing before work starts, with the manufacturers' product warranties on new material.
How it works in Juno Beach

Permits in Juno Beach
Whether a leak repair in Juno Beach needs a permit depends on its size, and we tell you before we quote.
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.
- Oceanfront, a quarter of it water
- Juno Beach is 1.9 square miles from Loggerhead Park and the Juno Beach Pier on the ocean to the Intracoastal behind Oak Harbour, and a quarter of that is water. Salt works on every exposed metal.
- Owners who are often away
- The typical Juno Beach home dates to 1989, and more than a third of units were vacant at the 2020 census, mostly seasonal. The online inspection record and our photo log stand in for an absent owner.
- Association letters before permits
- In Oak Harbour or Juno Isles the association's architectural letter comes before the town filing.
What homeowners say
I recently had the pleasure of working with Molsbee Roofing for a roof replacement, and I am thoroughly impressed with the entire process. From the detailed initial estimate, where all available options were clearly explained, to the quality workmanship and thorough cleanup.Read on Google

Roof leak repair questions in Juno Beach
Can a handyman fix a roof leak in Juno Beach?
Not when the repair needs a permit, and the town decides which roof work does. The permit goes on the town's own application, and Florida licenses roofing contractors, so ask anyone quoting for their licence number and check it on the state's lookup.
A handyman patch over a failed flashing also tends to hide the problem rather than fix it, and the water carries on into the deck.
Does the quarter-roof rule affect leak repairs on a Juno Beach roof?
It can. The quarter-roof rule considers how much of a roof system or section is repaired, replaced or recovered in any 12-month period.
Above a quarter, the roof covering across that entire system or section generally must be replaced or recovered to meet current code requirements. If that system or section was built, repaired or replaced in compliance with the 2007 Florida Building Code or a later edition, only the portion being worked on must meet applicable current code requirements.
We check which applies before we price. We check the permit history and add up this year's repairs before recommending another.
When should a roof leak in Juno Beach be fixed?
As soon as you see it. Water that gets in keeps soaking the deck and the insulation, and a small repair can grow into deck replacement if it waits.
Spring is the right window for planned work, ahead of hurricane season, but a leak should not wait for it. Call us, move valuables away from the drip and we will tell you what to cover until a roofer is on the roof.
Why does my Juno Beach roof leak only when rain blows in off the ocean?
Because wind-driven rain reaches places ordinary rain does not. It is pushed sideways under flashings, up the laps in edge metal and past cracked collars on the side facing the water, so a roof can stay dry in still rain and leak in a storm.
We check those details on the ocean-facing slopes first and, where needed, run water at the suspect spot to confirm the entry before repairing it.
Who do I call for a roof leak in Juno Beach?
Ring 561-318-8624; a person answers at any hour. Tell us where the water is showing and what the weather was doing, and we will tell you what to move and cover until a roofer arrives.
The visit ends with photographs of the entry point and a written price for the repair, so you know what is being fixed before any work begins. When your insurer asks for a roof certification letter after the repair, we provide one.
