We service Therma-Tru shingle, tile and metal roofing systems across Boca Raton as an independent service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer.

If you own a Therma-Tru roof and something looks off, call (561) 264-1337 and a live person will answer, day or night. This page is for Boca Raton homeowners who bought Therma-Tru because they wanted a better roof and now need someone who actually understands how these systems behave in South Florida’s heat, salt air and hurricane cycles.

How Therma-Tru Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

Therma-Tru built its name on entry doors, but their roofing lines have a distinct footprint in Boca Raton. Here’s what we see in the field, roof by roof.

• Shingle line surface granule loss at the rake edge. Therma-Tru’s asphalt shingle systems, especially those installed on the 2000s-era Boca Teeca and Hidden Valley homes, shed granules faster than the mid-roof field once the rake edge gets direct afternoon sun plus salt-laden east wind. The symptom looks like a gutter full of dark grit after every dry-season blow. We inspect the mat underneath for cracking, replace edge courses where the fiberglass mat is still sound, and re-seal the starter strip. If the mat is exposed through more than a third of the shingle, we say so and quote a full re-course of the affected plane.
• Tile system underlayment breakdown at penetration points. Therma-Tru’s concrete and clay tile profiles depend on the underlayment, and in Boca Raton we consistently find the first failure around pipe boots, vent collars and satellite dish brackets. The tile itself can look perfect while water works its way down the penetration seam. We strip back the tiles, replace the boot and flashing with stainless or lead alternatives that hold up to salt air, re-bed the tiles, and re-point as needed. The tile is the armor. The underlayment is the roof.
• Metal roof expansion ticking at panel overlaps. Therma-Tru standing seam and corrugated metal panels tick and pop when the Boca Raton afternoon heat expands the metal over cold decking from an early morning rain. Most homeowners think the roof is failing. In most cases the movement is normal, but at the eave and ridge overlaps, repeated thermal cycling works the screws loose over ten to fifteen years. We re-torque to spec, replace any gasketed fasteners that have cracked from UV exposure, and check the clip slots for bound movement.
• Flashing separation where tile meets a Therma-Tru chimney chase or wall line. We see a lot of step flashing pulled away from the wall on Therma-Tru tile roofs in Boca Raton neighborhoods like Camino Gardens and The Sanctuary. The cause is usually the house settling into sandy soil while the roof plane stays put. The counter-flashing holds, the step flashing doesn’t. We cut a clean reglet line, set new flashed courses tight against the wall, and re-seal with a polyether that moves with the structure. Caulk alone won’t fix this one.
• Fastener back-out on metal eave trim. On Therma-Tru metal roofs, the eave trim takes the brunt of wind-driven rain, and the original fasteners are often plain zinc. In Boca’s salt atmosphere, those corrode enough to lose their bite within eight years. We replace with coated stainless, one-for-one, and reset any trim that’s begun to flutter. Loose eave trim is a water entry point that hides until the fascia rots.

Our Therma-Tru Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process

Here’s how a typical Therma-Tru job runs with our crew, from first call to final walk-around.

1. 1
   We listen and then we look. You tell us what you’re seeing: a stain on the ceiling, granules in the gutter, a tick-tick-tick at sunset. We schedule a visit that works with your day, not just ours. A uniformed, background-checked tech shows up on time and starts by walking the roof and the attic both.
2. 2
   We diagnose in plain language. You won’t get a fog of roofing jargon. You’ll get the cause, the proof (we take photos), and the order of urgency. If a repair can wait a season, we say that. If it can’t, we tell you why with no drama.
3. 3
   Parts decision: OEM or quality aftermarket. For Therma-Tru roofs still under a manufacturer’s material warranty, we use OEM matching parts and document everything so your warranty stays intact. For older roofs where the OEM line is discontinued, we source aftermarket materials that meet or exceed the original spec, and we tell you exactly what you’re getting and why it’s the right call.
4. 4
   The fix itself. We protect your landscaping, keep the site clean as we go, and do the repair the way Dale Kessler would do it on his own house. That means square cuts, properly lapped flashing, sealed penetrations, and no shortcuts on materials.
5. 5
   We test before we leave. If we can’t simulate the failure, we don’t call it done. We check for movement, run a hose test on flat seams where appropriate, and walk you through what we did and why.
6. 6
   The Keystone Standard, in writing. Before the truck pulls away, you have a written record of what was done, what materials went in, and what the warranty covers. Our Done Right Promise applies to the workmanship. If it isn’t square and it isn’t sealed, it isn’t done.

What Therma-Tru Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Boca Raton

Boca Raton roofing work is priced by the problem, not by a menu someone made up off-site. That said, here are the ranges we typically see for Therma-Tru work in this market:

• Edge-course shingle replacement (one roof plane): $380 to $720, depending on linear feet and slope.
• Tile re-bed and re-point around one penetration (vent boot, pipe collar, dish mount): $260 to $540 per penetration.
• Standing seam fastener re-torque with gasket replacement, full roof: $850 to $1,400 for a typical 2,200-square-foot roof.
• Step and counter-flashing replacement along one wall line: $420 to $1,100, depending on wall length and access.
• Complete underlayment replacement under an existing tile field (larger job): $3,900 to $8,500, driven by roof complexity, deck condition and tile salvageability.

What moves the price is access, deck condition, and whether the original install left anything sound to work with. We give you a line-item quote before work starts, and the price holds. Call (561) 264-1337 for a free estimate on your Therma-Tru roofing issue. A real person answers.
