Lifetime Workmanship WarrantyAfter suspected storm damage in Lake Worth Beach, request a roof inspection and describe any active water entry. Molsbee Roofing provides a free inspection, photographs of the findings and a written scope with the price before proposed work starts.
Access depends on safe conditions, and concealed damage may need further investigation. Our yard is on South F Street.
For historic roofs in Old Lucerne or College Park, confirm the proposed repair with City preservation staff. Molsbee Roofing was founded by Don Molsbee in 1975.
Our Florida Certified Roofing Contractor license is CCC1327429. Call 561-318-8624, answered 24 hours a day.
When calling, describe where water is entering and any visible roof or electrical damage. Ask what temporary protection is available and when it can be installed safely.
Stay away from damaged service equipment; contact the property's utility provider and an appropriately licensed electrical contractor where needed. Lake Worth Beach Electric, the city's own utility, provides service in the city; check the property's electric provider before any service-mast work.
Wind can lift shingle tabs and ridge caps, crack or shift tile, open metal joints and peel back a flat membrane edge. Rain can enter beneath covering that looks intact from the street.
On Old Town's flat roofs, parapets, scuppers and roof-to-wall flashing deserve attention. From Bryant Park to Parrot Cove, lagoon salt exposure matters for metal components.
The repair scope should identify damaged materials and concealed areas needing further investigation. Wind design requirements are set for each address and building.
Attachment must suit the roof assembly and building design.
Storm damage does not remove the need to check historic requirements. College Park, Old Lucerne, Northeast Lucerne, Southeast Lucerne, South Palm Park and Old Town are local historic districts; historic review also applies to individually designated landmarks.
Confirm the proposed permanent repair with City preservation staff. Like-for-like work may qualify for staff review, but matching materials does not guarantee approval.
Required historic approval precedes exterior work and permit issuance. Discuss urgent temporary protection separately from the final material and appearance.
Inspection photographs document visible findings; they do not by themselves establish when every defect occurred. The written scope should distinguish visible damage from concealed conditions and explain how further work would be handled.
Molsbee Roofing offers a lifetime workmanship warranty and manufacturers' product warranties. Ask to review the written warranties for the proposed work.
A roof certification letter for your insurer is available after a repair or re-roof on request.
For work in Lake Worth Beach, confirm requirements with the building department responsible for the property and complete any required historic or HOA review before ordering materials or beginning work.
This is our home town, and its permit desk is at 1900 2nd Avenue North. Permits are filed on the city's online application, with lookups and inspection scheduling in Click2Gov; the city takes next-day inspection requests until 4 pm. Lake Worth Beach Electric, the city's own utility, provides service in the city; check the property's electric provider before any service-mast work.
Six local historic districts, College Park, Northeast Lucerne, Old Lucerne, Old Town, Southeast Lucerne and South Palm Park, sit under the Historic Resources Preservation Board, and a certificate of appropriateness is required before the permit can be issued. Historic review also applies to individually designated landmarks. A City staff report on 623 North Ocean Breeze recommended denial of standing seam over original metal shingle. Confirm acceptable materials and the review route with City preservation staff; matching materials do not guarantee approval. Wind design requirements are set for each address and building.
We had a wonderful experience with Molsbee Roofing replacing our flat roof. The team did a fantastic job, the new flat roof looks great! I also enjoyed working with Nicole and Merrick, they were very professional from start to finish. The roofers were hard-working and thorough.Read on Google

Keep people away from wet or sagging ceilings, damaged wiring and fallen power lines. Do not climb onto a wet or damaged roof.
Take photographs from a safe location and call to describe the damage and any active leak. Ask about inspection availability and temporary protection.
Call 561-318-8624, answered 24 hours a day. A City staff report on 623 North Ocean Breeze recommended denial of standing seam over original metal shingle; it was not a blanket board ruling.
Confirm roof-permit requirements with the Building Division on 2nd Avenue North; Click2Gov provides permit information and inspection scheduling.
Cost depends on the visible damage and what lies beneath it. A small visible opening can conceal a larger problem.
The inspection is free, and proposed work is priced in writing. Ask how the scope handles damage that cannot be seen until opening.
Florida's quarter-roof rule: when more than a quarter of a roof system or section is repaired, replaced or recovered in any 12-month period, the roof covering across that entire system or section must be replaced or recovered to meet current code requirements. An exception applies 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 repaired, replaced or recovered must meet applicable current code requirements.
Our inspection helps determine which applies to your roof.
Availability depends on storm conditions, safe access and scheduling. When calling, describe any active water entry and ask whether temporary protection can be provided.
If a temporary cover is proposed, confirm its limitations, monitoring needs and the plan for permanent repair.
Wind-driven rain can get in at a lifted flashing, a loose vent collar or under a shingle tab that has laid back down, without leaving a missing piece you can see from the street. An inspection considers visible interior staining and accessible roof flashings, penetrations and edges; an accessible attic may reveal additional signs of leakage.
Concealed damage can remain unknown without opening the roof. If opening the roof is proposed, ask what the investigation includes, what it costs and how the opening will be closed.
