AfterTherma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation in Delray Beach: What to Know First
We are an independent Therma-Tru service provider handling roof replacement and installation for Delray Beach homeowners, and most Therma-Tru roof system work takes one to two days once materials are on site. We price this work honestly: you pay for the roof system, the materials, and the labor to set it correctly, and you get a written line-item quote before we start. If you own a Therma-Tru entry system, a Therma-Tru roof component, or a structure where Therma-Tru and roofing meet, this page tells you exactly what to expect from us. Call (561) 940-2917 to schedule a free estimate, and a live person will answer.
How Therma-Tru Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Therma-Tru builds good doors and entry systems, but Delray Beach has a way of finding the weak points in anything that lives under a roof. Here are the specific failures we see on Therma-Tru roof-adjacent work in this area, and how we correct them.
- Flashing failures at the door-to-roof transition on Classic-Craft and Smooth-Star entry systems. Delray Beach gets 60-plus inches of rain a year, and when step flashing or head flashing above a Therma-Tru entry door is installed flat or lapped wrong, water tracks down the rough opening and rots the jamb from the inside. The homeowner sees a dark stain at the base of the trim; the real cause is up top. We pull the flashing, correct the lap, and reset the door so the weather barrier sheds water the way it should.
- Rot at the sill and threshold where roof runoff concentrates. On any Therma-Tru door set beneath a porch return or a short eave, roof rainwater channels directly onto the threshold. Therma-Tru’s composite sills resist rot better than wood, but the rough opening beneath them does not. We see this most often on Fiber-Classic and Pulse series doors in older Delray Beach homes. The fix is not just replacing the door; it is reworking the roof drainage above it so runoff no longer strikes the threshold.
- Improperly flashed sidelights and transoms on Therma-Tru Systems. When a homeowner adds sidelights or a transom around an entry door, any gap in the flashing above the transom lets roof water into the wall cavity. By the time the homeowner notices peeling paint or a soft spot near the door, the framing is already compromised. We take the assembly down to the rough opening, replace any rotted framing, and flash the entire unit as one system, not as a door with add-ons.
- Adhesive and sealant breakdown on Therma-Tru door bottoms in direct sun. South-facing entries in Delray Beach take brutal UV exposure. Therma-Tru factory sweeps and bottom seals harden and crack within three to five years here, while the northern lifespan is typically seven to ten. On many roof replacement jobs, we uncover a door bottom that has been letting water and insects in for years. We replace the sweep with a marine-grade equivalent and adjust the threshold so the door closes tight against it.
- Warped or racked frames from roof movement. Older Delray Beach homes with flat or low-slope roofs shift over time. When a roof is replaced or repaired, the framing sometimes settles enough to throw a Therma-Tru entry door out of square. We see this on older estate homes along the Intracoastal. The door no longer closes without force, or the deadbolt no longer lines up. We re-square the frame, shim the hinges correctly, and if the door is too far gone, we quote a full replacement with the same Therma-Tru line or an equivalent from a manufacturer we also service, such as PGT, CGI, CWS, or ES Windows.
Our Therma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Here is exactly how a Therma-Tru roof replacement or installation goes when you call us.
- 1
We come out and look. A technician measures the rough opening twice, checks the roof-to-wall junction above it, and photographs everything. No quote gets built without eyes on the actual structure.
- 2
We write the quote on paper. You see the Therma-Tru product line itemized, the flashing and sealant materials separated, and the labor broken out. No lump sums, no vague allowances.
- 3
We decide on parts together. For Therma-Tru work, we use OEM components where the warranty depends on them, and we tell you honestly when a quality aftermarket part will outlast the factory original in the Delray Beach climate. You make the call with the facts in front of you.
- 4
We do the work. Roof drainage is corrected first if needed, then the opening is prepped, the Therma-Tru unit is set and flashed, and everything is sealed and tooled by hand.
- 5
We test it. Water testing at the flashing points, door operation cycled multiple times, lock alignment checked with the door closed and latched.
- 6
We register the warranty layers in writing. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered and durations stated before our truck leaves your driveway. That is The Keystone Standard.
What Therma-Tru Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Delray Beach
Here are honest price ranges for the Therma-Tru roof work we do most often in Delray Beach:
- Flashing correction and reseal above an existing Therma-Tru entry: $350-$800, depending on how much trim and siding must be removed to access the flashing.
- Full Therma-Tru entry door replacement with new flashing and threshold: $1,800-$4,200, driven by door series, sidelights, and glass package.
- Roof-to-wall junction repair with door reset (rot remediation included): $900-$2,500, depending on how much framing has to be replaced.
- Complete Therma-Tru system with two sidelights and transom, roof flashing corrected: $4,500-$9,000, and this is where most Delray Beach replacement projects land.
What moves the price most is rot. The longer a flashing leak has been active, the more framing we have to replace. A quick correction is cheap. A two-year-old leak is not. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate, and we will give you exact numbers in writing.

FAQs
A Therma-Tru door warranty typically covers manufacturing defects in the door itself, not damage caused by roof leaks, improper flashing, or failed seals around the rough opening. If water from your roof has rotted the jamb or compromised the sill, that damage falls outside the Therma-Tru warranty in most cases. Correcting the flashing and re-setting the door is repair work, not a warranty claim. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will walk you through what your specific warranty does and does not cover.
Yes, in most cases we can match the original Therma-Tru series, color, and panel profile if you know the model or if we can identify it from the door itself. Classic-Craft, Smooth-Star, and Fiber-Classic lines are still in production and available in Delray Beach. If your exact finish or grain has been discontinued, we will show you the closest current Therma-Tru match side by side on paper before you commit to anything. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate, and bring any paperwork from the original install if you have it.
Swelling at the threshold or jamb after heavy rain is almost always a flashing or drainage problem above the door, not a problem with the door slab itself. Water is getting into the rough opening, the framing is absorbing it, and the opening is tightening around the door. In Delray Beach, this pattern shows up most often after summer downpours. The fix is correcting the roof-to-wall flashing above the door, and until that is done, the sticking will keep coming back. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will find exactly where the water is entering.
If the door slab, panel, and internals are still sound, fixing the roof flashing is almost always the better call. A Therma-Tru door that has not been water-damaged can last decades, and Delray Beach roof repairs are cheaper than full door replacement in most cases. If the jamb or threshold has rotted, replacement becomes the honest answer. We will tell you which one you need and show you the numbers for both before you decide. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate.
