Mr-Glass Roof Repair in Boca Raton: What to Know First
Mr-Glass roof repair in Boca Raton typically runs $340 to $1,900 depending on whether we’re resealing a joint, replacing a single glazing panel, or rebuilding a failed curb mount, and most jobs are completed in one visit. TruePane Windows & Doors is an independent Mr-Glass service provider, not a factory-authorized shop, which means we call the problem what it is and quote the fix without pushing a full replacement unless the frame actually calls for it. This page is for Boca Raton homeowners who own a Mr-Glass skylight, roof window, or glass roof section and want a straight answer on what’s wrong and what it costs to make it right. Call (561) 264-1337 and a live person answers.
Key takeaways:
- We repair Mr-Glass roof glazing without requiring a full unit replacement unless the frame is structurally compromised.
- Every Mr-Glass job is covered by our Done Right Promise in writing.
- Boca Raton’s salt air, hurricane-driven rain, and afternoon UV load accelerate specific Mr-Glass failure modes we see weekly.
- Free estimates. No change orders. A square deal on paper before we touch a pane.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Mr-Glass roof systems in Boca Raton take a beating that inland installations never see. After years of pulling apart failed curb mounts and resealing weep channels across Palm Beach County, here are the five failure patterns we see most often and exactly how we correct them.
- Weep-channel clogging on the Mr-Glass Series 500 curb-mount skylight. The Series 500’s exterior weep slots are narrow, and Boca Raton’s oak pollen and sea spray combine into a paste that seals them shut within a few seasons. Water backs up under the glazing flange and runs inside the curb, which owners misread as a roof leak. We pull the glazing, clear every channel, test flow with a measured pour, and reset the panel on a fresh butyl bed.
- Failed glazing tape on the Mr-Glass low-profile Series 300. The Series 300 uses a thinner glazing tape than the heavier curb units, and after eight to ten years of Boca sun it dries, shrinks, and allows capillary draw at the corners. The fix is a full deglaze, new tape in the correct durometer, and re-torqued retainers to the manufacturer’s pattern. We don’t caulk over it and call it done.
- Stress cracks originating at the Mr-Glass Series 1000 glass roof panel corners. We see corner fracturing on the Series 1000 when the original install set the panel on shims that settled. The glass carries weight, not the frame, and cracks radiate from the corner. We inspect the curb for level before ordering replacement glass, then set the new panel on a properly shimmed and sealed bed. Replacing the glass without fixing the curb just moves the crack a year down the road.
- Condensation between the panes on Mr-Glass dual-glazed roof windows. A fogged Mr-Glass roof unit means the edge seal has failed and the insulating gas is gone. If that’s all it is, we replace the sealed glazing assembly and re-register the remaining warranty coverage on the frame. If the frame itself has corroded at the hinge or latch points, we’ll tell you straight that a new unit costs less than piecework repairs.
- Gasket compression set at the Mr-Glass operable roof window sash. The operable sashes use EPDM gaskets that lose their spring after years in Boca Raton heat. The symptom is a persistent drip at one corner during wind-driven rain. We replace the gaskets, adjust the sash geometry, and run a water test before we leave the roof.
Our Mr-Glass Roof Repair Process
Every Mr-Glass job we take gets the same methodical treatment, whether it’s a small reseal or a full glazing replacement. Here’s what happens from the first call to the final cleanup.
- 1
You call (561) 264-1337. A live person answers, asks what you’re seeing, and schedules the estimate for a time we’ll actually show up.
- 2
Rooftop inspection and measurements. We document the failed component, measure the existing opening twice, photograph the frame condition, and check the curb or roof structure underneath. If the roof around the unit is compromised, we’ll say so before we quote the glazing work.
- 3
Parts and approach on paper. We price the repair with Mr-Glass OEM components when they’re available and worth the cost. For older Mr-Glass units where the manufacturer has discontinued parts, we quote a matched aftermarket equivalent and tell you the difference up front. You see both options in writing.
- 4
The repair. Background-checked, uniformed technicians do the work, following the manufacturer’s installation pattern where one exists and our own more demanding one where it doesn’t. No corners caulked over. No shortcuts.
- 5
Testing and inspection. We run a water test with a controlled pour and inspect the interior for any sign of draw. If the pane is not true or the seal is not holding, the job is not done, and we go back up until it is.
- 6
Paperwork and guarantee. Before the truck leaves your driveway, you get our Done Right Promise in writing, with both warranty layers registered and durations stated. No fine print that covers neither.
What Mr-Glass Roof Repair Costs in Boca Raton
Straight numbers, because you’re calling for exactly this. The price depends on what failed and whether we’re reusing the existing frame.
- Reseal and weep-channel service (Series 300 or 500): $340 to $620, one visit.
- Single glazing panel replacement (no frame work): $850 to $1,400 depending on glass size and coating.
- Dual-glazed sealed unit replacement (fogged or cracked): $1,200 to $1,900 for most residential Mr-Glass roof windows.
- Curb rebuild or structural repair (when the frame or curb failed): quoted after inspection, typically $1,500 to $3,500, and we’ll tell you if replacement is the cheaper honest answer.
What moves the price: glass size, whether the frame is salvageable, roof access difficulty, and whether you want OEM Mr-Glass parts or a quality equivalent on a discontinued line. Every quote is free, written, and fixed before work starts. Call (561) 264-1337 to schedule your free estimate.
Why Boca Raton Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for Mr-Glass Work
We’re a second-generation glazier’s company, not a franchise playbook. Dale Kessler grew up in the Boca Teeca neighborhood and started TruePane because he watched too many homeowners get handed a low bid and a loose frame. Every Mr-Glass repair we do is covered by our Done Right Promise in writing, with both warranty layers registered before the truck leaves the driveway. We’ve been serving local communities since 2008, and the technician on your roof is background-checked, uniformed, and trained to work in your home the way they’d work in their own mother’s. We’re also an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, so when the day comes that a Mr-Glass replacement makes more sense than another repair, we can show you side-by-side quotes on paper and you can make the call with real numbers in front of you. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call (561) 264-1337.
FAQs
That depends on the unit’s age and what failed. If the manufacturer’s warranty still applies, we’ll help you register the claim and perform the repair using factory components so the coverage stays intact. If the warranty has lapsed, we quote the repair with OEM or matched aftermarket parts and cover our work for 90 days in writing. Call (561) 264-1337 and we’ll look up your unit’s documentation with you.
Most Mr-Glass glazing components are available to us through supply channels we’ve used for years, and we keep common seals, gaskets, and tapes stocked. For discontinued Series 100 and early Series 300 units, some factory parts are no longer manufactured, and we’ll give you a quality aftermarket option with the differences explained up front. Call (561) 264-1337 for a free estimate and parts availability check.
Most Mr-Glass roof repairs are completed in a single visit once we’ve inspected the unit and confirmed the parts needed. We schedule estimates promptly and complete most repairs within a week of your approval. For an active leak during storm season, call (561) 264-1337 and we’ll tell you the soonest real appointment, not a promise we can’t keep.
Repair is the right call when the frame is square, the curb is sound, and the failure is isolated to glazing, seals, or hardware. Replacement becomes the honest choice when the frame has corroded, the curb needs rebuilding, or the unit is leaking in multiple locations. We carry PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows as authorized lines, so if replacement is the better move, we’ll give you side-by-side numbers and you decide. Call (561) 264-1337 for a straight assessment.
When a repair falls under the manufacturer’s active warranty, we register it and keep records of the work. For our own workmanship, you get the Done Right Promise in writing before we pack up. If the pane is not true or the seal does not hold, we make it right. Call (561) 264-1337 to schedule your free estimate.
