Lifetime Workmanship WarrantyRoof maintenance in North Palm Beach is a yearly check of the parts that let water in first, the flashing, the edge metal, the outlets and the joins between old and new roof work, and it begins with a free inspection and a written price. Along Yacht Club Drive and Paradise Harbour Boulevard the salt off Lake Worth Lagoon reaches edges and fasteners first, and on the older streets off Lighthouse Drive the job is often spotting which past repair has started to let go.
Every visit is photographed, so the next one can compare like with like. Molsbee Roofing has worked this county since 1975, founded by Don Molsbee and still family-run: Florida Certified Roofing Contractor CCC1327429, GAF Certified Contractor and Owens Corning Preferred Contractor.

On the lagoon streets we look closely at drip edge, wall flashing and the fasteners holding them. Surface rust that is stable can be watched; metal that has thinned or pulled away from its fastening needs replacing before the next storm season.
We photograph the same details from the same spots each year, so you can see the change for yourself. A bead of sealant over either condition hides it rather than fixing it.
Leaves and grit collect at outlets and in the low corners of flat additions, and water that lingers there finds seams. We clear what is loose, then look at what the debris was hiding: staining, blistered membrane or a soft patch.
If water sits in the same place visit after visit, we tell you whether the fix is keeping it clear or rebuilding the fall, and price the second as a separate job.
A village house from the fifties or sixties has usually been roofed and patched several times, often by different hands. We compare any records you have with what is on the roof: newer shingle meeting older, a replaced valley, a Florida room added later.
Those joins are where maintenance pays off, because a repair that is starting to part is quick to reseat now and far costlier once water has reached the deck.
We record the size and place of every repair we make in your file, with dated photographs, so the quarter-roof question in the answers below is settled from measurements rather than memory. Anything beyond routine upkeep is priced separately and filed with the Village through My Government Online when a permit applies.
Every repair carries our lifetime workmanship warranty and the manufacturers' product warranties on new material, and when your insurer asks for a roof certification letter, we provide one.
For work in North Palm 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.
The Village of North Palm Beach runs its own Building Division at 701 US Highway 1 and takes permits through My Government Online, with photo, virtual or in-person inspections. The roofing submittal is specific: the application, the signed contract, two copies of the county 100/200/300/400 roofing forms and two copies of each product approval. A missing copy is the usual reason a file stalls.
The village sits on Lake Worth Lagoon, and all of it is in the 170 mph wind band and the wind-borne debris region. Under the flood maps adopted in December 2024 about 1,400 village properties are proposed for AE zones.
After the most recent major rain water began to drip from our ceiling. Preparing for the worst we called Molsbee roofing after seeing their crews replace a large house nearby. They actually had a crew here the next day, found a spot that needed repair, and fixed it before it got worse.Read on Google

A roofer walks the roof and checks the covering, the flashing at walls and pipes, the edge metal, the valleys and every outlet on a flat section. On houses near the lagoon we spend longer on metal and fasteners.
You get photographs, a note of anything that changed since the last visit, and a written price for any repair, kept separate from routine upkeep so you can decide on each item.
Spring, before the summer storm season. The roof is usually dry, and anything the visit finds can be put right before the first hard rain rather than during it.
A check in late autumn, after the season, is worth adding on lagoon-front streets like Paradise Harbour Boulevard, where wind-driven rain tests edges and flashing hardest. A leak should never wait for either date.
It depends less on the covering than on what sits under it and around it. Tile often outlasts its underlayment, and on sound clay barrel tile a failed spot is a detach-and-reset repair: we lift the tile, replace the underlayment and reset the same tile; shingle wears soonest on the slopes that face the sun all afternoon; edge metal and flashing near the lagoon can give out long before the field does.
Regular checks stretch a roof's life by catching the small failures, a lifted flashing or a cracked boot, before water reaches the deck. The photographs from each visit show which way your roof is heading.
No. Cleaning deals with staining on the surface; maintenance checks the parts that keep water out.
A clean roof can still have a lifted flashing or a split pipe boot, and a stained one can be perfectly sound. If a cleaning is planned on an older village roof, have it looked at first, because pressure and foot traffic on worn tile or brittle shingle can cause damage, and it is better to know the roof's condition beforehand.
Yes. 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.
That is why we log the size of each repair in your maintenance file, so you know when you are near the line.
