This page is written for homeowners in Palmetto Bay who own PGT roof windows, skylights, or impact-rated openings and need straight answers about what failed, what it costs, and who should touch it. If that sounds like you, keep reading.

How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• PGT SkyEase 3500 skylights losing seal at the roof curb. In Palmetto Bay, the real culprit is rarely the glass itself. It is the curb-mounted flashing that takes the brunt of afternoon thunderstorms off Biscayne Bay. The butyl tape degrades, the aluminum flashing lifts at the corners, and water finds the gap. We remove the old curb flashing, inspect the deck for rot, re-secure with fresh sealant rated for coastal humidity, and re-set the unit. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
• PGT WinGuard roof windows with failed gas struts. The PGT WinGuard roof window line uses gas struts that wear out faster in South Florida heat than the manufacturer’s temperate-climate estimates suggest. When a strut fails, the window will not stay open or drops hard when closed. We replace both struts as a pair, even if only one failed, so the unit operates evenly. That is a parts nuance most contractors skip, and skipping it leads to the second strut failing within months.
• PGT Sable series roof-installed impact glass with interior condensation between panes. This is the failure homeowners notice first because it looks like the window is “sweating” from the inside. What it actually means is the seal between the laminated glass layers has been compromised. In a roof-mounted PGT Sable unit, that seal takes more thermal stress than vertical windows because of direct sun on the Palmetto Bay roof deck. We remove the sash, order the correct PGT-mapped replacement insulated glass unit (IGU), and set the new unit with the Keystone Standard: both warranty layers registered in writing before we leave.
• PGT roof window operator mechanisms stripping under repeated use. On PGT roof windows and venting skylights, the worm gear operator is the part that fails most in homes near the water. Salt air works into the gear housing, the lubricant breaks down, and the handle starts slipping. We disassemble the operator, clean the housing, install a new gear set, and re-lubricate with a marine-grade compound. No lubrication, no quiet operation, no done-right job.
• Flashing failure around PGT impact roof windows installed by a previous contractor. In Palmetto Bay, we regularly see spring failures caused by improper kick-out flashing at the head of a PGT roof window. Water runs down the roof, hits the window head, and is supposed to be diverted out and away. If that flashing was never installed or was installed flat against the deck, water tracks behind the frame and shows up as a ceiling stain months later. We pull the unit, correct the flashing, re-flash all four sides to code, and put the window back. If it is not right in the opening, it will not be right in a hurricane.

Our PGT Roof Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and talk to a person. When you call (386) 200-9224, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. You describe what you are seeing, and we tell you whether it sounds like a quick fix or a deeper problem.
2. 2
   On-site diagnosis. A background-checked, uniformed technician arrives on schedule. We inspect the PGT unit, the roof curb, the flashing, and the interior ceiling below for water tracks. You get a written diagnosis and a line-item quote before any work starts.
3. 3
   Parts decision, stated on paper. If the unit needs a replacement part, we explain whether an OEM PGT part is the right call or whether a quality aftermarket part performs equally well for less money. We quote both options side by side and let you choose. No surprises on the bill.
4. 4
   The repair. We do the work on a single visit whenever the part is on the truck or readily available. The opening is prepped, the new component is set, and the frame is checked for plumb and seal before we close anything up.
5. 5
   Water test and inspection. After the repair, we run water over the roof window and flashing with a controlled hose test. If it leaks, we have not finished. If it holds, we clean the site and walk you through what we did.
6. 6
   The Done Right Promise, in writing. Every PGT repair leaves with our workmanship warranty documented. If it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing.

What PGT Roof Repair Costs in Palmetto Bay

What moves the price: roof pitch, access difficulty (single-story versus tile roof walk), condition of the existing curb or decking, and whether the part is a stock PGT component or a special-order item. We price the job on paper before we start, and the price does not change mid-stream. Seniors and veterans receive a permanent 5% discount. Call (386) 200-9224 to schedule your free estimate.
