ES Windows Roof Replacement & Installation in Westchester: What to Know First
ES Windows roof replacement and installation in Westchester typically runs $9,800 to $24,000 depending on roof size, material, and whether we’re addressing underlying decking or flashing issues around existing ES window openings. Most full replacements take 2 to 5 working days once permits clear. We’re an independent ES Windows service provider, which means we’re not tied to manufacturer pricing or corporate scripts, and we’ll tell you exactly what the job costs before we touch a single shingle.
This page is for Westchester homeowners who own ES Windows products and need a roof replaced or installed without compromising the performance of those windows. If you’ve got ES Windows units already in place, your roof replacement has to account for how the flashing, trim, and water barrier meet those frames. Get it wrong and you’ll get leaks that travel straight down into your walls. Call (850) 721-1218 for a free estimate, or keep reading to understand what’s actually involved.
How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
We’ve replaced enough roofs in Westchester to know that the roof and the windows aren’t separate systems. They meet at the most vulnerable point of your house. Here’s what we see with ES Windows specifically:
- Flashing separation at the head of ES Windows units. On ES Windows’ impact-rated lines, the frame profile sits slightly proud of the rough opening compared to some other brands. When a roof is replaced and the old drip edge or step flashing gets pulled, installers who don’t know ES Windows units often re-flash against the frame too tightly, or worse, caulk over the existing flashing instead of replacing it. That caulk fails in two Westchester summers. We strip the old flashing back to the raw frame, install new step flashing with proper overlap, and re-seal with a urethane-rated sealant that holds up to South Florida UV exposure.
- Water intrusion through the frame corners on ES Windows’ casement and picture window combinations. When a roof replacement shifts load or when old roof decking gets pulled and replaced, the framing around large ES Window combos can settle slightly. That movement is enough to break the original corner seal on older ES units. The symptom is water staining on the drywall below the window, not at the window itself. Homeowners chase the window as the problem; it’s almost always the roof-to-wall transition above it. We address the transition and re-check every window along the replaced eave line.
- Damaged or missing roof-to-wall counterflashing above ES Windows transoms. ES Windows transom units are beautiful, but they create a long horizontal seam where wall meets roof. If the original counterflashing was cut short or installed without proper kickout at the ends, rainwater runs behind it and pools at the top of the frame. This is a Westchester-specific issue because of our afternoon downpours, which hit hard and fast. We install full-length counterflashing with positive lap and a proper kickout flashing at each end, so water is directed away from the frame and into the gutter.
- Compressed or failed glazing seals on ES Windows’ impact-rated double-hung units caused by roof-driven humidity changes. When a roof is old and leaking slowly, the attic humidity migrates into wall cavities and sits against the window frame. ES Windows impact units use a compression glazing system that holds up well as long as the surrounding environment stays dry. Once moisture hits it continuously, the glazing channel starts to degrade. We see this most often on the upper floors of two-story Westchester homes where roof leaks have gone unnoticed. Before we replace the roof, we inspect the adjacent ES window units and flag any glazing compromise so you can decide whether to address it while we’re already on site.
- Improperly flashed ES Windows fixed-lite units installed during the original build. This is the classic Westchester original-construction issue. The house goes up fast, the fixed-lite ES Windows units go in, and the roofer at the time runs shingles down to the frame with no step flashing at the jamb junctions. Fifteen years later, water is getting behind the siding and the windows show moisture in the track. When we replace the roof, we pull back the wall covering at the junction, install proper step and counter flashing, and re-seal the opening correctly. The window wasn’t bad; the original interface was.
Our ES Windows Roof Replacement & Installation Process
- 1
The call. You reach a real person, any hour. We ask about your roof, your ES Windows setup, and any leaks or concerns. Then we schedule a time that suits you, not a four-hour window.
- 2
The walk-through. Ed or one of our senior techs shows up on time and in uniform. We inspect the roof, the attic, and every ES Window along the roof line. We take photos and measurements so we can quote accurately.
- 3
The written estimate. You get line-item pricing with no hidden fees and no vague allowances. We specify the shingle or tile material, underlayment, flashing type, and exactly how we’ll handle the ES Window transitions. The price you see is the price you pay.
- 4
The work. We pull permits, protect your landscaping, and strip the old roof. Our crew replaces any rotted decking, installs new underlayment, and pays special attention to the ES Windows openings, re-flashing every junction the right way.
- 5
The inspection. After the roof is on, we water-test every ES Windows junction and walk the roof with you. You see the finished transitions and know where your money went. The job isn’t done until you’ve signed off.

Why Westchester Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work
We’ve been doing this in Westchester since 2011. Ed Winslow grew up a few minutes from Tropical Park, and he still handles estimates himself. That means you’re not getting a salesperson reading from a binder; you’re getting a neighbor who knows your block, knows how the rain hits your roof, and knows ES Windows units because he’s worked around them for the better part of two decades.
We also work on PGT, CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems products, so if you’ve got mixed brands across the house, we can handle it in one scope of work. Every technician is background-checked and shows up in uniform. Every call is answered by a person, not a phone tree. And every roof replacement is covered by the Done Right Promise. If we don’t get it right, we make it right. No fine print, no expiration date, no argument. That’s the whole point of putting a local name on a local business.
FAQs
No, replacing your roof won’t void the ES Windows warranty as long as the re-flashing and sealing around the frames are done correctly. The warranty covers the window itself, not the roof-to-wall interface. What can void it is damage caused by improper flashing that allows water to sit against the frame and rot the structure around it. That’s exactly why we pay so much attention to the ES Windows junctions during a roof replacement. Call (850) 721-1218 if you want us to check your current flashing before you decide anything.
Most standard shingle replacements around ES Windows units take two to five working days once permits are approved. Tile and metal jobs take longer because of the material handling and the detail work at the window lines. We’ll give you a clear timeline in your written estimate, and we’ll keep you posted if weather throws a wrench in the schedule.
No, you don’t need to replace ES Windows just because you’re replacing the roof. If your windows are still sealing properly and the frames are sound, we re-flash them and leave them alone. If we find glazing failure or frame rot during the roof inspection, we’ll tell you and give you a separate price so you can make an informed decision. We’re not going to upsell you into new windows just because we’re already on site.
For flashing, we use commercial-grade aluminum and galvanized steel fabricated to fit your specific ES Windows frames. Flashing is not an OEM part; it’s a site-fabricated roofing component. For any window hardware or glazing work we perform, we use OEM parts where they matter and quality aftermarket components where they’re functionally identical and less expensive. We’ll always tell you which is which and why. Call (850) 721-1218 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk you through exactly what your job needs.
Yes, we pull permits on every roof replacement and installation in Westchester. Permits protect you two ways: they ensure the work meets current building code, and they create a paper trail that matters if you sell the house later. We handle the paperwork, meet the inspector on site, and don’t close the job until the inspection passes. That’s been our policy since day one, and it’s not changing.
Call (850) 721-1218 now for a free estimate on your ES Windows roof replacement or installation. A real person will pick up, and Ed or one of his senior techs will schedule a time to come out. Upfront pricing, no surprises on the invoice, and a promise that lasts 36500 days. The one down the road is available 24/7, and we’ll put it in writing.
