Commercial roofing in Royal Palm Beach
Much of the commercial property here is recent enough to still be carrying a manufacturer's warranty on the roof, and that document causes more confusion than any technical question we are asked. Owners assume it means the roof is somebody else's problem for the next twenty years.

Royal Palm Beach · Commercial roofing
Roofing in Royal Palm Beach since 1975.
Much of the commercial property here is recent enough to still be carrying a manufacturer's warranty on the roof, and that document causes more confusion than any technical question we are asked. Owners assume it means the roof is somebody else's problem for the next twenty years.
It generally does not. A manufacturer's warranty covers the material behaving as specified.
It usually does not cover the workmanship of whoever installed it, unless the installer holds a certification that extends it. It almost never covers anything another trade has done to the roof afterwards, which on a working building is most of what goes wrong: a condenser installed on blocks bearing directly on the membrane, a cable run cut through an upstand, a kerb added for extraction without a proper flashing.
And nearly all of them are conditional on the roof being maintained and on damage being reported promptly, conditions that are quietly failed by the common practice of doing nothing until water arrives. So the useful first step on a newer commercial roof is not a repair and not a warranty submission.
It is finding out what the warranty actually says, what it requires of you, and whether the roof is currently in a condition that satisfies it. A survey answers all three at once.
Coverings are TPO, modified bitumen or a coating according to condition, and we are Carlisle certified for TPO. None of this is an argument against warranties.
It is an argument for reading yours while the roof is dry, which costs nothing and is a great deal easier than reading it in a hurry. Molsbee Roofing is a family business, roofing since 1975, based in Lake Worth Beach and working Palm Beach County from Jupiter to Boca Raton, licensed CCC1327429.

Good to know
What to know.
- What a warranty usually covers
The material performing as specified. That is a narrower promise than most owners assume. Workmanship is generally separate and depends on the installer's certification. Consequential damage inside the building is usually excluded. And anything a subsequent trade did to the roof is almost always outside it. Reading the document before you need it is a great deal more comfortable than reading it afterwards with a wet floor.
- The conditions are the part that gets failed
Most warranties require the roof to be maintained and inspected, and damage to be reported within a stated period. Doing nothing until water appears fails both, quietly, years before anybody looks at the paperwork. A scheduled survey with a photographed record is what keeps those conditions satisfied, and it costs a small fraction of the cover it protects.
- Other trades are the usual cause and the usual exclusion
A condenser on blocks bearing on the membrane, a cable run through an upstand, a kerb cut in for extraction without proper flashing. Those cause most leaks on newer commercial roofs and sit outside almost every warranty. Recording what is on the roof, and when it appeared, is therefore worth doing for reasons that have nothing to do with roofing and everything to do with knowing where you stand.
- A survey answers all of it at once
What condition the roof is in, what has been added to it since it went on, whether the maintenance conditions are being met, and what would need doing to satisfy them. That is one visit and a photographed report rather than three separate problems. The survey is free and the report is yours regardless of who carries out any work that follows.

Roofing questions
Frequently asked questions.
Who does commercial roofing in Royal Palm Beach, FL?
Molsbee Roofing. A family business since 1975, based in Lake Worth Beach, licensed CCC1327429 and Carlisle certified for TPO, working Palm Beach County from Jupiter to Boca Raton. We survey and re-cover commercial and light industrial buildings throughout 33411, and we can tell you plainly how your roof sits against its warranty conditions. The survey is free. Call 561-318-8624.
Our roof is under warranty. Do we need to do anything?
Almost certainly yes, and it is worth checking now rather than later. Most warranties require the roof to be maintained and inspected and damage to be reported within a stated period, and doing nothing until water appears fails those conditions quietly. A survey establishes the roof's condition and whether the requirements are being met, which is a far more comfortable thing to know in advance than when you are relying on it.
Does the warranty cover the leak?
It depends what caused it. If the material has failed to perform as specified, possibly. If the installation was faulty, that usually depends on the installer's certification rather than the material warranty. If another trade put a condenser, a cable run or a kerb through the covering afterwards, almost certainly not. A photographed survey establishes which of those you are looking at, which is what any conversation about cover has to start from.
Somebody installed equipment on our roof. Does that void anything?
It may well affect cover for that area, and it is a common cause of leaks regardless. Supports bearing directly on the membrane, services sealed rather than flashed and kerbs added without proper upstands are the usual findings. Recording what is on the roof and when it appeared protects your position and, more usefully, lets the detail be corrected before it causes damage rather than afterwards.
Can you maintain the roof to keep the warranty valid?
Yes, and that is a large part of what a scheduled visit is for on a newer building. The roof is inspected, the drainage cleared and tested, every penetration checked, anything new recorded, and the whole thing photographed against a mapped section. That produces exactly the documented record most warranty conditions require, and it costs a small fraction of the cover it protects.
