Therma-Tru Roof Repair in Wellington: What to Know First

Independent Therma-Tru roof repair in Wellington means fixing what’s above the door line: the flashing, the drip edge, the seal, the substrate behind the frame. Most jobs we handle run between $385 and $920 depending on whether we’re replacing flashing, pulling and resetting the unit, or rebuilding rotted substrate. We quote a written, fixed price before we start, and we schedule most Therma-Tru roof work in Wellington within three to five business days.

Call (561) 349-4826

This page is for Wellington homeowners whose Therma-Tru entry or patio unit is leaking at the top, showing water stains above the frame, or failing inspection after a storm. If that’s you, call (561) 349-4826 and we’ll walk you through what to look for before anyone climbs a ladder.

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

Therma-Tru units are built solid, but roof-adjacent failures follow predictable patterns in Wellington’s climate. Here’s what we see most often:

• Classic-Craft and Fiber-Classic header flashing separation. The polyurethane frame material expands and contracts at a different rate than the aluminum flashing above it, and after five or six years of Wellington afternoon thunderstorms, the caulk joint at the header lets go. Water creeps behind the brickmold and rots the rough opening header before you see any interior stain. We remove the exterior trim, inspect the substrate, and rebuild that joint with proper stepped flashing, not a bead of caulk.
• Smooth-Star and Pulse series drip-edge misalignment. These units have a narrower top brickmold profile than the Classic line, and we regularly find the drip edge installed flush against the frame instead of lapping over it by a half inch. That sends water directly into the jamb. We reset the drip edge and add a proper Z-flashing detail that moves water away from the opening.
• Wet substrate behind the brickmold. On Therma-Tru doors under shallow or nonexistent eaves, Wellington’s sideways rain gets driven up under the threshold of the penetration. The frame looks fine from inside; the OSB behind it has turned to sawdust. We can tell the moment we probe it. We cut out the rot, sister in new framing where needed, and reseal with a through-flashing system rated for exposure.
• Impact-rated Therma-Tru units with installer-voided top seals. We see Therma-Tru impact doors where a previous contractor ran a bead of silicone over the existing header flashing and called it done. That repair does not exist on paper and it does not hold past one storm season. We pull the old seal, prep the substrate, and reinstall per Therma-Tru’s published installation specs so the warranty stays defensible.
• Transom and sidelight leak patterns above frame. On Therma-Tru units with transoms, the mull joint where the transom meets the door frame is a known weak point in horizontal rain events. We replace the mull cap, reseat the glazing gasket, and test with a hose before we put the interior trim back.

Our Therma-Tru Roof Repair Process

Here’s how a typical Therma-Tru roof repair runs when you call us in Wellington:

1. 1
   Call and assessment. You reach a live person at (561) 349-4826. We ask about the symptom: water at the interior header, a drip along the sidelight, a stain on the drywall above the door. That tells us which failure to suspicion before we arrive.
2. 2
   On-site diagnostics. A background-checked, uniformed technician inspects the header flashing, drip edge, exterior trim, and substrate condition. We probe, we check the existing seal with moisture testing, and we take photos for you to see before any work is authorized.
3. 3
   Parts decision. If a Therma-Tru stone or trim piece is salvageable, we say so. If it needs replacement, we quote OEM Therma-Tru trim where color match matters. For flashing and substrate work, we spec materials appropriate for Wellington’s exposure. You see the line items on paper before we touch anything.
4. 4
   The repair. We remove only what’s necessary, rebuild the flashing detail, reset the drip edge, and replace any rotted substrate. Every opening gets measured twice before we reseat anything.
5. 5
   Test and verify. We run water over the repaired area with a hose, watch for any wicking at the seam, and check the interior side with a moisture meter. No guesswork.
6. 6
   Cleanup and guarantee. We clean the work area, walk you through what was done, and you get the Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, we make it right.

What Therma-Tru Roof Repair Costs in Wellington

Here are the price ranges we quote most often on Therma-Tru roof repair in Wellington:

• Header flashing replacement: $385 to $620, depending on the width of the opening and trim profile.
• Drip-edge reset with new Z-flashing: $420 to $680, includes removing and resetting the existing drip edge.
• Substrate repair at the door header: $600 to $920 when rot is limited to the top of the opening. Larger structural issues push higher.
• Full top-of-door reseal per Therma-Tru installation spec: $450 to $750, including removal of old caulk and silicone, prep, and new seal.

What moves the price: whether we’re working from a ladder or scaffolding, how much rotted substrate we find, and whether the trim needs full replacement rather than prep and reseal. We give you the number before we start, in writing, and that number does not change unless we uncover something structural behind the wall. Call (561) 349-4826 for a free estimate.
