Therma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation in Royal Palm Beach: What to Know First
Roof replacement and installation work on a Therma-Tru product in Royal Palm Beach typically runs $450 to $1,400 depending on the unit, the failure point, and whether we’re setting a new door assembly or rebuilding the threshold and flashing around an existing one. Most jobs are completed in a single visit, and every quote includes both warranty layers registered in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. We are an independent Therma-Tru service provider, not a factory-authorized dealer, which means we quote honestly and fix what’s actually wrong rather than steering you toward a replacement you don’t need. This page is for Royal Palm Beach homeowners who own a Therma-Tru entry door or patio door and want straight answers about roof replacement and installation work around it. Call (386) 251-6745 and a live person will answer, 24/7.
How Therma-Tru Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Fiberglass skin delamination on Classic-Craft and Smooth-Star doors. The Florida sun on a west-facing Royal Palm Beach wall will eventually separate the fiberglass skin from the door’s core, especially if the original install left the top edge unsealed. We strip the delaminated section, re-bond with marine-grade adhesive, and re-seal the top rail so water can’t ride the gap into the core.
- Rotted door frames on the Pulse and Benchmark lines. Therma-Tru’s newer composite frames resist rot better than wood, but the older wood-frame units still in many Royal Palm Beach homes from the 1990s soak up water at the sill. We cut out the rot, sister in treated stock, and reset the threshold with proper slope so water drains away from the house instead of pooling at the door base.
- Threshold and flashing failure at the door-to-roof transition. On covered entries and porch roofs, bad kick-out flashing sends roof runoff straight down the door jamb. We see this constantly in Royal Palm Beach, where afternoon thunderstorms drop an inch of rain in twenty minutes. The fix is new kick-out flashing, re-taped jambs, and a threshold that actually sheds water.
- Adjustable sill caps that crack under foot traffic. Therma-Tru’s adjustable sills on the Fiber-Classic and Classic-Craft lines are convenient during install but brittle after a decade of Florida heat. We replace the cap with a solid oak or composite sill, set it level, and seal the full length against the frame.
- Weatherstripping compression on in-swing doors near pool enclosures. Chlorine and humidity break down the Q-Lon weatherstripping faster than Therma-Tru’s spec sheet suggests. We re-groove the jamb, install fresh compression strip, and adjust the strike so the door seats fully without binding.
Our Therma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation Process
- 1
Measure and diagnose. We measure the opening twice, check the reveal on all three sides, and mark where water is getting in. Dale Kessler grew up off Crestwood Boulevard, and he still works every job the way his father taught him: find the real problem before touching the door.
- 2
Parts decision on paper. We hand you a written line-item quote showing OEM Therma-Tru parts and quality aftermarket alternatives side by side, with prices. No surprises on the bill.
- 3
Pull the old unit or rebuild the opening. We remove the door, inspect the rough opening and roof flashing above, and replace anything that’s compromised.
- 4
Set the new or repaired unit. New Therma-Tru or serviced existing unit goes in true: shimmed correctly, flashed properly, sealed on all four sides. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 5
Register both warranty layers. Manufacturer and workmanship, in writing, before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard.
- 6
Cleanup and final walk. Uniformed, background-checked techs leave your entry cleaner than they found it, and we walk the job with you before we go.
What Therma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Royal Palm Beach
Here’s what we honestly see in Royal Palm Beach, based on the jobs we’ve done across Palm Beach County:
- Weatherstripping and strike adjustment: $85 to $180
- Threshold replacement with new sill cap and flashing: $325 to $550
- Frame rot repair at the door-to-roof junction: $475 to $800
- Full door assembly replacement (Therma-Tru or comparable PGT, CGI, CWS, or ES Windows unit): $1,200 to $3,400 installed, depending on size, glass package, and impact rating
- Kick-out flashing and roof runoff correction above an existing door: $250 to $600
What moves the price is whether the frame itself is sound. A door that just needs a sill and new flashing costs a few hundred. A frame that’s been wicking water for three wet seasons costs more. Either way, we quote the job before we start, and that’s the price. Call (386) 251-6745 for a free estimate.

FAQs
Yes, and in Royal Palm Beach that’s often the right fix. If the door frame is solid and the leak is coming from roof runoff at the header, we replace the kick-out flashing, re-tape the jambs, and re-seal the top edge, usually for $250 to $600. If the frame has already started rotting, the door has to come out. Call (386) 251-6745 and we’ll tell you which situation you’re in.
Therma-Tru’s warranty covers manufacturing defects, not installation errors or storm-driven water intrusion. If your roof replacement company broke the seal or flashed the door wrong, that’s on them. If the door itself failed, we can help you document the issue for a warranty claim. Either way, we register our own workmanship warranty in writing, so you know what’s covered and for how long before we leave.
Most single-door jobs are done in one visit, typically four to six hours including setup and cleanup. Full assembly replacements with impact glass can push into a long day. We’ll tell you the timeline before we start, and we’ll be there when we say. Call (386) 251-6745 for a straight answer on your specific job.
Both, and we show you the difference on paper. OEM parts keep your Therma-Tru warranty fully intact but cost more and sometimes have longer lead times. Quality aftermarket parts, like solid oak sills and marine-grade flashing, often outperform OEM in Florida’s climate and cost less. You decide, with real numbers in front of you. Estimates are free.
We’ll tell you straight, and we’ll show you replacement options from Therma-Tru plus PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, same-day, side by side on paper. You get impact-rated and non-impact choices, real prices, and our Done Right Promise on whatever you choose. Call (386) 251-6745 for a free estimate.
