Fast, Reliable Roof Repair Across Wellington
Roof repair in Wellington costs between $325 and $1,850 for most common jobs in 2026, with major underlayment work under tile running $2,800 to $6,400 depending on the roof’s size and pitch. We get a crew to your property fast because we know exactly where Olympia, Versailles, and the equestrian estates sit relative to each other, and our dispatchers route trucks from the South Florida metro office directly into Wellington neighborhoods. Call (945) 303-9821 and a live person answers, day or night. Greg Holloway and the Tilehurst Roofing crew have walked more Wellington roofs than most roofers see in a decade, and we put every price in writing before a single nail goes in.
Wellington’s roofs fail differently than roofs ten miles east. The concrete tile in Versailles and Olympia looks solid long after the underlayment underneath has turned to dust. We repair what’s actually broken, not what looks broken. Roof Repair is what we do every day, and for homes in Wellington specifically, that means understanding what 1990s CBS construction does under Florida sun and summer storm cycles.
Why Tilehurst Roofing Is Wellington’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
We answer the phone. That sounds small until you’ve spent a Monday morning calling three roofing companies and getting three voicemail greetings. Tilehurst Roofing is a Kingswell family company, founded in 2000, and every Wellington job runs on the same five rules: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails. Greg Holloway has built his crew around those rules, and they’re not aspirational. They’re in the paperwork you sign before we start.
Wellington homeowners have been burned by no-shows and price changes at the door. We hear it on nearly half our calls. A family in Emerald Forest recently told us another company quoted a $900 flashing repair over the phone, then tried to bill $4,300 after “discovering” decking rot. The written price you get from Tilehurst is the price you pay. Always. And if a repair fails inside a year, we return and fix it free under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. You’ll get that promise in writing before the crew leaves, not mailed two weeks later.
Our technicians are background-checked and wear Tilehurst uniforms, so when someone’s on your roof off Aero Club Drive, you know exactly who they are. Every call Wellington makes reaches a live person, 24/7, including the night a summer squall tears a ridge cap loose at 2 a.m. Call (945) 303-9821 and you won’t get a queue.
Flat Roof Repair in Wellington
Flat roof repair in Wellington runs $425 to $1,850 for most single-area patches, depending on whether we’re patching a membrane seam, replacing a section of TPO or modified bitumen, or repairing the roof collar around an AC curb or vent. Wellington has more flat roofs than people expect. The patio covers on 1980s CBS homes in the older sections of the Village, the screened enclosure tie-ins on canal-front lots, and the low-slope sections on custom estate additions near the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center all collect standing water after the 3 p.m. storm cycles and slowly pull themselves apart at the flashing.
Flat roof failure in Wellington is almost never dramatic. It’s a small crack in a seam, a bubble that got baked by UV, a fastener that backed out slowly. Then one afternoon we get a July downpour and water finds the path of least resistance straight into a drywall ceiling. By the time you see the stain, the membrane has been failing for months.
Membrane Seam and Punctured-Surface Repairs
A cracked seam or small puncture is the most common flat roof repair we do in Wellington, and it’s the cheapest to fix if caught early. We clean the area, apply a reinforced patch sized well beyond the visible damage, and extend the repair at least six inches past the failure in every direction. If the membrane has started to delaminate from the substrate, we cut out the loose area and weld in a fresh piece.
Roof Curb, Vent, and Edge-Detail Repairs
Flat roofs leak most often where something pokes through them. Exhaust vents, AC curbs, pipe penetrations. The sealant Wellington contractors used in the 1990s shrinks and cracks under our UV, and the constant expansion and contraction of summer heat against air-conditioned interiors works the gap wider every year. We pull the old collar, inspect the decking under it, and install new flashing before patching the membrane back over the top.
Shingle Roof Repair in Wellington
Shingle roof repair in Wellington lands between $350 and $1,100 for a typical repair, whether that’s replacing a few torn architectural shingles, fixing a lifted rake edge, or resealing a pipe boot on a GAF or Owens Corning roof. Even though most of Wellington’s master-planned communities lean tile, plenty of homes in the western subdivisions and on older lots in the Polo Grounds area were re-roofed with asphalt shingle systems to keep costs manageable, and those roofs need regular attention.
Shingle roofs in Wellington deal with a different load than tile roofs. The flex, the expansion, the wind-driven rain that gets under an edge and starts working a shingle loose. A single lifted shingle on the windward side of a home off South Shore Boulevard lets water in slow enough that you won’t see it for a year. By then the decking is soft. Our shingle repairs treat the entire failure zone, not just the visible break.
Wind-Lifted and Impact-Damaged Shingle Replacement
Wellington sits in a Florida Building Code wind zone designed for roughly 150 mph design speeds, and summer thunderstorms regularly produce microburst wind gusts that peel a shingle tab back before the rain even arrives. We remove the damaged shingles, inspect the nailing pattern on the course below, and re-nail and re-seal any loose neighbors. Then we match the replacement shingle’s color and texture as closely as the original, preserving the look of the roof line.
Pipe Boots, Ridge Caps, and Valley Flashing on Shingle Roofs
The ridge and valley details on a Wellington shingle roof take more punishment than the field shingles. Our summers bake the sealant strips, our storms push water sideways, and our humidity never lets anything truly dry. When a ridge cap lifts or a valley flashing has pulled away, we rebuild the detail rather than smearing caulk over the top. That’s the Tilehurst difference: make the repair, not the patch.
Trusted Brands We Service in Wellington
We work with materials from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, and IKO, which means we can match your existing shingle rather than asking you to live with whatever we happen to have on the truck. Wellington’s master-planned communities have architectural review rules, and a mismatched patch can mean a letter from the HOA. We stock matching color granules for most major lines and can order any specific profile for homes in Olympia, Versailles, or the Polo Club, so your repair blends into the roof line instead of announcing itself from the street.
Common Roof Repair Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- Failed underlayment under intact concrete tile. This is the big one. Roofs built in Versailles and Olympia in the late 1980s and 1990s are hitting the age where the asphalt underlayment beneath the tile has disintegrated while the tile itself looks perfectly fine. The leak returns every storm season until someone pulls the tile and replaces what’s underneath.
- Deteriorated mortar on ridge and hip caps. Wellington’s UV index and year-round humidity eat mortar faster than tile. Wind-driven rain gets pushed underneath caps that still look seated from the ground. We probe every cap during our Wellington inspections because the failure hides until a storm finds it.
- Rusted flashing at valleys and wall intersections. Galvanized flashing installed in the 1990s has a lifespan, and Wellington’s humidity has been working on it for thirty years. Valley flashing under tile, headwall flashing at chimneys, and step flashing at dormer walls all fail slowly, then all at once.
- Fastener back-out on metal barn and arena roofs. The equestrian district around the show grounds has hundreds of exposed-fastener metal roofs. The neoprene washers on those fasteners dry out and split, the screws back themselves out, and the panels lose their seal. A flat patch won’t fix it; the fasteners have to be replaced systematically.
Pricing for Roof Repair in Wellington, FL

Underlayment replacement under existing concrete tile runs $2,800 to $6,400 for a typical Wellington hip roof, because we’re pulling the tile field, replacing the entire water barrier beneath it, and re-laying every piece.

FAQs About Roof Repair in Wellington
Because the leak isn’t in the tile; it’s in the underlayment, the waterproof membrane beneath the tile that does the actual water-blocking work. Wellington homes built in the 1980s and 1990s used asphalt-saturated felt underlayment products with a realistic service life of roughly 20 to 25 years. Our summer heat, extreme UV, and constant humidity have aged that layer well past its limit on thousands of roofs in Versailles, Olympia, and Palm Beach Polo. The tile on top still protects the underlayment from direct sun, but once the underlayment goes brittle and cracks, water reaches your decking. Tilehurst inspects the underlayment by pulling a small test field of tile in the suspect area, so we can show you a photo of what’s under there before quoting any repair. Call (945) 303-9821 for that inspection.
No. Wellington sits outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which applies only to Miami-Dade and Broward counties. Wellington falls under the Florida Building Code’s standard wind-resistance provisions for Palm Beach County, with design wind speeds around 150 mph in this zone. Products still have to meet Florida Building Code approval standards, but through the standard NOA and product-approval pathways rather than the stricter HVHZ-specific testing and approval process required further south. That means more product flexibility for Wellington homeowners, and Tilehurst carries the right approved materials for the zone. The practical takeaway: your repairs don’t need HVHZ-specific products, but they absolutely must meet Palm Beach County wind-load standards, and we build to those standards on every job.
The window between May and November is the most reliable time to get a roof repair scheduled and completed in Wellington. Once the Winter Equestrian Festival circuit begins in January, property managers lock down scheduling across the equestrian district, snowbird owners return, and accessing roofs on estates adjacent to the show grounds becomes logistically difficult. If your roof is leaking or you suspect underlayment failure, get on the schedule before the end of November. Tilehurst books Wellington inspections aggressively in the late spring and early summer for exactly this reason. Call (945) 303-9821 and we’ll get you on the calendar before the winter bottleneck hits.
Yes, and that’s what we do on most Wellington tile roofs. If your underlayment has failed in one slope or around one valley, we pull the tile only from the damaged area, replace the underlayment and any compromised flashing underneath, and re-lay your original tiles. In Wellington, where so many roofs are original concrete or clay tile from the 1980s and 1990s, we deliberately preserve the existing tile whenever possible. We replace only the underlayment, flashing, and individually cracked tiles in the repair zone. A full tile roof replacement is the right call only when damage spans several slopes or the tile itself has reached the end of its life. Tilehurst never recommends replacement when a repair fixes the problem correctly, and we’ll show you photos of what we found under the tile before you approve the work.
Metal roof repair near the show grounds starts with the fasteners, not the panels. Exposed-fastener metal roofs leak most often because the neoprene washers on the screws have perished, allowing water to wick down the fastener shank and into the building. We inspect the fastener field first, replacing backed-out screws and re-sealing washers before checking panel laps and ridge details. That’s the repair Wellington’s equestrian estate owners need, and it’s a different skill set than residential tile work. Standing-seam panels need different treatment: we identify open seams and re-crimp or seal them at the exact failure point. Greg Holloway’s crew carries both metal and tile tools on every Wellington job, so the same team that repairs a stable roof can fix the main house the same week. Call (945) 303-9821 for a free estimate on any metal structure on your property.
In Versailles, our crew pulled a small field of Boral concrete tile off a late-1990s hip roof after the homeowner called about a ceiling stain that only appeared during summer convective storms. The tile was sound, but the underlayment beneath it had gone brittle and the valley flashing had rusted through. We replaced the underlayment, reset new ice and water shield at the valley, and re-laid the original tile rather than selling a full replacement. We also re-seated the ridge caps, since Wellington’s UV and humidity had eaten the mortar long before the tile showed any wear.
If your Wellington roof is leaking, staining, or just past its twenty-fifth birthday without an inspection, start with a call. (945) 303-9821. Greg Holloway and the Tilehurst crew will give you a written price before any work starts, and a written guarantee before we leave. The Kingswell Way applies to every job we do in Wellington: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, come back if it fails.
