Lifetime Workmanship WarrantyMolsbee Roofing maintains roofs in Wellington, FL, starting with a free roof inspection of the tile, the flashings and the places where water collects. Each item is photographed and priced in writing, and routine upkeep is kept apart from any repair that needs its own price.
On a horse property in the Equestrian Preserve the house and the barns go on one list, and in Olympia, Palm Beach Polo or Aero Club we ask for the association's contractor rules when we book. The phone at (561) 318-8624 is answered 24 hours a day.
Upkeep on a Wellington roof is mostly tile work. We reset slipped pieces, replace cracked ones with a matching profile, repoint loose mortar at the ridges and hips, and reseal the flashings where the roof meets a second-storey wall.
We step only on the parts of the tile that can take weight, so the visit does not cause the breaks it is meant to fix. Caught early, a lifted ridge cap or an open flashing is a small job; left for a season, the water it lets in goes to work on the underlayment below.
A metal barn roof wears in different places from the tile on the house. We look for fasteners that have backed out, seams and trim that have opened, and rust where panels overlap or meet a gable end.
Each barn gets its own photographs and its own priced lines, so you can see which work belongs to which building and approve them separately. A run-in shed or a workshop on the same parcel can be added to the list in the same way.
A large Wellington house often has upper roofs that empty onto lower ones and long valleys that fill with leaves. We clear what can be cleared, check the metal and sealant where one roof lands on another, and note any spot where water keeps sitting.
Clearing a blocked path is upkeep. Water that still lingers after the path is clear points to a repair, and that goes on the list as its own line with its own price, so you can see the difference.
Some findings are bigger than maintenance: underlayment that tears wherever we lift a tile, a deck that gives underfoot, or cracked tile across several slopes. When we find them we say so, photograph them and price the repair or re-roof separately from the upkeep.
Larger work of that kind goes to the Village of Wellington's Building Division through ProjectDox, with fees, inspections and status on Citizen Self Service, and we prepare that paperwork as part of the job.
For work in Wellington, confirm requirements with the building department responsible for the property and complete any required historic or HOA review before ordering materials or beginning work.
Wellington's Building Division at 12300 Forest Hill Boulevard takes plans on ProjectDox and handles fees, inspections and status on Citizen Self Service. The office is open weekdays 7 to 4, inspections run 7 to 3:30, and after-hours inspections are available on request. The village publishes its own plan review time-frame chart, so the schedule comes from that chart, not from us.
About 9,000 acres sit in the Equestrian Preserve under the 2001 Equestrian Overlay Zoning District, where a parcel often carries a house and barns, so one property can mean several roofs on one permit set.
Wellington is inland in the 160 mph wind band and the wind-borne debris region. The code's secondary water barrier provisions come into play on a re-roof, and we specify a self-adhered barrier across the deck.
My experience dealing with the Molsbee team was truly amazing. My roof was in need of some small maintenance (replacing broken tiles mostly) but everyone treated me as if my project was their most important one! Top-notch service.Read on Google
We hired Molsbee Roofing for a residential roof project and were very impressed with the results. From the first inspection to the final cleanup, the team was prompt, professional, and transparent. They provided a clear estimate and delivered quality workmanship.Read on Google
We signed or completed about a dozen roofing jobs with a Wellington address over the last twelve months.

Once a year suits most Wellington roofs, ideally before hurricane season, with an extra look after any storm that brings real wind. The yearly visit catches slipped tile, loose ridge mortar and open flashings while they are small, and dated photographs let us compare this year's roof with last year's.
Between visits, watch for ceiling stains, tile on the ground or on the lawn, and water that sits on a lower roof, and call when you see a change.
There is no set fee, because the price follows what the free inspection finds. You get a written list with a price for each item, such as resetting tile, repointing a ridge, resealing a flashing or tightening barn fasteners, and you approve only the lines you want done.
The size of the house, the number of barns and gated access all move the total. Anything that is a repair rather than upkeep is priced as its own line, so the maintenance figure stays honest.
If repairs, replacements or roof recovering cover more than a quarter of a roof system or section in any 12-month period, the code generally requires replacing or recovering the roof covering across that entire system or section to meet current code requirements. 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 worked on must meet applicable current code requirements.
Our inspection helps determine which applies to your roof. Routine upkeep rarely comes near that line.
Replacing cracked tile across several slopes after a hard storm can, so we measure the affected area first.
Routine upkeep that leaves the roof looking the same usually follows your association's contractor and access rules rather than a full review. Approval comes into play when the work changes the tile, the colour or the look, or becomes a re-roof.
Communities such as Olympia, Palm Beach Polo and Aero Club each set their own requirements, so we ask for yours when you book and tell you before any work which side of that line the job falls on.
We plan the visit around the property's routine. Before we arrive, tell us where horses are turned out, where riders and trailers move, and which barn aisles must stay clear.
We set ladders and stage materials away from those areas, keep debris contained, and agree on a single contact on site. On a working farm in the Equestrian Preserve, the timing of the barn roofs is agreed with you so the animals are settled while we are overhead.
