    Roof leak repair in Lake Worth Beach

    When a Lake Worth Beach roof leaks, the roofer who answers is usually a few minutes away, because our yard is in this town. That proximity changes what a repair is here: no travel to price in, a truck that can come back the next dry morning, and a crew that has already worked the street. The leaks themselves follow the city's map. In College Park and the historic downtown blocks the nineteen-twenties bungalows carry clay barrel on plank sheathing with chimneys, dormers and porch roofs, and the water gets in at an opened chimney flashing, a porch tie-in, a soft board under a lap, or clay that a century has finally cracked. In North Lake Worth, Blackwell Park and Lakeside Palms the postwar concrete tile sits over felt that has had its decades in the attic and cracks at the laps, so one leak on a block predicts the next. Along the Intracoastal at Harbor Estates, Bella Vista Estates and Indigo Waters the leak is in the metal: galvanized valley liners rusted through, drip edge flaked away, cap nails weeping down the tile. And everywhere in 33460 the ceiling stain is a poor witness; water runs along the felt or the deck from the real hole to wherever a nail lets it fall. Molsbee Roofing has been a family business since 1975, working Palm Beach County, Jupiter to Boca Raton, from this town, and repairs are the bulk of what we do here. A roofer starts on the roof, works the valleys, eaves, boots and flashings with an awl and a camera, lifts tile where the felt is suspect, checks the attic where there is access, and comes down with a photograph of the hole and an itemized price to close it. A sound roof is reported as sound. Rusted metal is replaced in stainless or copper and stays replaced. A plank deck that has gone soft is shown to you in pictures before the word replacement is used. Free roof inspections. When a storm opens a roof in our own town, the tarp goes on the same visit and the permanent repair follows when the deck has dried.

    What it costs

    Most repairs we have priced across Palm Beach County since spring cost a small fraction of a replacement: a boot or flashing at the low end, a rebuilt valley or new underlayment at the high end.

    Bungalow leaks: chimneys, porches and plank

    A College Park or Lake Worth Town bungalow leaks where its age shows: a chimney flashing opened along the mortar, a porch roof tied into the main roof with metal that has moved, a dormer cheek, a plank board gone soft under a lap. The repair rebuilds the flashing in copper or stainless, re-covers the porch section properly, replaces the failed boards, and relays the salvaged clay so the Historic Preservation Board sees the roof it wants to see. Because this is a like-for-like repair, it generally does not need the board's review; we tell you when it would.

    Postwar blocks: the felt is finished

    In North Lake Worth, Blackwell Park and Lakeside Palms the concrete tile is fine and the underlayment under it is not. Felt cracks at the laps and around every pipe and vent after decades of attic heat, and a ceiling stains with every tile intact. The repair lifts a course or two above the failure, cuts the cracked felt back to sound material, laps in new self-adhered membrane, replaces the split boot, and relays the tile. It holds for years while the surrounding felt is supple; when a probe finds it brittle across the slope, we say so before you pay for a bridge.

    Lagoon side: rusted metal out, stainless in

    At Harbor Estates, Bella Vista Estates and Indigo Waters the repair is a metal job. The rusted galvanized valley liner comes out and stainless or copper goes in; flaking drip edge is stripped and renewed the length of the eave; corroded cap nails are pulled and the hip and ridge caps reset on stainless screws; the tile around the work is lifted, saved and relaid so nothing shows from the seawall. Sealant over rust is not a repair and we do not sell it, because on the Intracoastal it fails by the next season.

    Storm nights in our own town

    When a storm opens a roof in Lake Worth Beach the truck is close. A roofer secures a tarp over the opening, battened so the next gust does not take it, photographs the damage for your file, and schedules the permanent repair for the first dry day the deck will accept membrane and mortar. Repairs we have priced across Palm Beach County since spring have mostly cost a small fraction of a replacement, and in our home town there is no travel line on the invoice.
