Lifetime Workmanship WarrantyWe replace metal roofs across Jupiter Farms, from standing seam on the house to panel roofs on barns, garages and workshops, and it starts with a free inspection and a written price for each building. A roofer measures every roof you want included, checks the deck and the edges, and you get a scope that names the panel, the gauge, the finish and the fastening.
Metal suits this part of the county for reasons that have nothing to do with salt: long, simple, sunny roof planes, outbuildings that already wear metal, and on most roads no association with a say in the colour. Palm Beach County issues the permit through ePZB, and its inspectors add an in-progress check on metal before the roof is finished.
Molsbee Roofing is a family-owned business, three generations roofing Palm Beach County from Lake Worth Beach since 1975, licensed CCC1327429, with the phone at (561) 318-8624 answered 24 hours a day.
When the house, the garage and the barn all go to metal, they can share a profile, a finish and a colour, and a lot in Ranch Colony or off Jupiter Farms Road reads as a single place instead of a set of buildings roofed in different decades. It also means a single material order and a single delivery down the drive.
Each structure still gets its own measured area and its own lines on the estimate, so you can stage the work, but the panel is ordered and priced together when you build them together.
Concealed-clip standing seam is the roof we recommend on a Jupiter Farms house: no screws through the face of the panel, and the panel moves on its clips as it heats and cools. On a barn, a workshop or a run of covered stalls, an exposed-fastener panel is a sound choice, because the building is simple and the screws and washers are easy to reach when they need checking.
We price both where both make sense and explain what the difference buys, so the choice rests with you.
A metal re-roof gets an extra look from the county. Its inspectors sign off the roof framing and sheathing, and metal roofs also get an in-progress inspection while the underlayment and clip fastening can still be seen, before the last panels close them in.
We schedule those inspections and photograph what they approve. That record is worth having for the house and every outbuilding when the property changes hands, and it shows the roof was fastened to the county's wind requirements.
Inland, a metal roof is not fighting salt, so the details that fail are mechanical: an edge that lifts in a squall, a ridge closure that lets wind-driven rain in, a pipe boot or vent flashing cracked by the sun. Daily summer downpours find those points first.
The clip spacing at the perimeter and corners and the flashing at every penetration are set to the county's wind requirements, which apply along Indiantown Road just as they do on the coast, and we specify a self-adhered secondary water barrier on the deck under the panels.
For work in Jupiter Farms, confirm requirements with the building department responsible for the property and complete any required historic or HOA review before ordering materials or beginning work.
Jupiter Farms is unincorporated Palm Beach County west of Jupiter, so the roofing permit does not go to the Town of Jupiter. It is filed with the county's Planning, Zoning and Building Division through the ePZB portal, where a single-family re-roof is self-issued once the product-approval questions pass and lapses if unpaid within ten days. County inspectors sign off roof framing and sheathing and, on metal, the in-progress stage.
From 1 October 2026 every county application carries a flood legend, and the county re-roof worksheet pre-prints 170 mph unless the parcel tool shows otherwise.
Out along Indiantown Road the design wind speed is 160 mph, and all of unincorporated Palm Beach County is in the wind-borne debris region. We lay a self-adhered secondary water barrier over the deck before the new roof.
Molsbee Roofing is truly a company that functions with integrity. Merrick was very professional and made sure I was satisfied. Nicole was extremely helpful, pleasant and prompt in responding to questions / requests. Overall, the entire crew was outstanding.Read on Google
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
Yes, metal usually costs more to install than architectural shingle, and on a big acreage roof the gap grows because it is multiplied across the area. What you buy is a longer service life, less upkeep and a light finish that reflects summer heat.
On a barn or workshop, an exposed-fastener panel narrows the difference considerably. We measure once and price metal and shingle side by side, so you are comparing on your own roof rather than on an average.
The common ones sit at the details, not in the panel. Exposed-fastener roofs rely on washers that age in the sun and need checking over the years; wide flat standing seam panels can show slight waviness, which is cosmetic; and any metal roof leaks where a flashing, a ridge closure or a pipe boot was poorly detailed.
Away from salt, corrosion is rarely the story here. Careful work at the penetrations and edges avoids most of it, and our lifetime workmanship warranty covers that installation in writing.
Neither, generally. On the house the panels go over a solid deck and a self-adhered underlayment, not open purlins, so from inside rain sounds much as it does on any other roof.
A light finish reflects a good share of the sun that lands on it, which counts on a large unshaded roof through a Jupiter Farms summer. A barn with panels over open framing will be louder, which is worth knowing if the workshop is where you spend your afternoons.
On most roads, nobody but you and the county. Much of Jupiter Farms has no association, so the colour and the profile are your call, and the county's part is the permit and its inspections, not the look.
A few communities here do have an association, so check before you order; if yours does, we build the scope from its written rules. The permit goes through ePZB, and the metal roof gets its in-progress inspection before it is finished.
Longer than an asphalt shingle roof, and away from salt it has fewer enemies. What usually ends a metal roof's life out here is a detail rather than the panel: tired washers on an exposed-fastener roof, failed sealant at a penetration, or an edge that was not fastened to the wind schedule.
The panels carry the manufacturer's product warranty and our installation carries a lifetime workmanship warranty, both in the proposal. The free inspection shows how your roof is wearing and what a new one needs.
