AfterPGT Roof Replacement & Installation in Boca Raton: What to Know First
PGT roof replacement in Boca Raton typically runs $9,800 to $24,600 depending on the product line, roof complexity, and whether you’re replacing a single slope or the entire system. As an independent PGT service provider, TruePane Windows & Doors handles the full job: we remove the old PGT panels, inspect the curb and flashing, set the new glass, and register every warranty layer in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. Most PGT roof replacements in Boca Raton take two to four working days once materials arrive. If you own a PGT skylight, sunroom roof, or glass roof system and it’s fogged, leaking, or hurricane-damaged, call (561) 264-1337 and a live person will answer, day or night. This page is for Boca Raton homeowners who want the job done right the first time, by a company that will still be here in thirty years.
How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
PGT builds a solid product, but Boca Raton’s salt air, summer humidity, and hurricane cycles expose weak points that don’t show up in a catalog. Here’s what we see most often:
- Fogged or hazed glass on PGT PremierVu skylights. The PremierVu line uses insulated glass units with a desiccant-filled spacer. When the edge seal fails (usually after 12 to 18 years of Boca Raton sun), moisture creeps in and the desiccant saturates. The glass fogs from the inside and no amount of cleaning helps. Our fix: we pull the old unit, measure the existing curb, and order an IG replacement spec’d for coastal humidity. We set the new glass with fresh glazing tape and re-seal the perimeter, not just caulk over the old bead.
- Leaks at the curb on PGT glass roof sections. In Boca Raton, the single most common PGT roof leak is not the glass itself. It’s the curb the glass sits on. Original builders often flashed these curbs with paper-thin material that breaks down after a decade of sun and storm cycles. We strip the old curb down to the deck, re-flash with peel-and-stick membrane lapped correctly, and only then set the replacement panel. The glass was never the problem; the curb was.
- Stress cracks from PGT fixed roof panels after hurricanes. PGT roof panels are impact-rated, which means they’re supposed to take a hit without shattering. But repeated pressure cycling from storm winds can create hairline stress cracks near the edges of older fixed panels, especially if the original install left the panel slightly pinched in the frame. We see this most often on PGT’s Classic series fixed roof glass. Our fix starts with checking the mounting points, not just swapping glass. If the frame is binding, new glass will crack the same way in two seasons.
- Failed gaskets on PGT operable roof vents. The rubber gasket around a PGT Eze-Breeze roof vent breaks down in Boca Raton’s UV and heat. Once it goes flat or brittle, water finds its way in during the afternoon thunderstorms. We replace the gasket with an OEM match when available, and we re-torque the vent frame to manufacturer spec so the seal sits evenly. A new gasket on a loose frame is just a leak waiting for the next storm.
- Condensation between PGT panels on sunroom roofs. Boca Raton’s humidity exposes a truth about glass roofs: the seal between panels matters as much as the glass itself. When an original sunroom roof was assembled with bulk silicone, that joint eventually separates from thermal expansion. The result is condensation you can see between panels, and eventually a drip. Our fix: we disassemble the affected panel run, clean the joint faces properly, and re-set them with the right structural sealant for a coastal climate, not whatever was on the truck that day.
Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Every PGT roof job we do in Boca Raton follows the same path. Here’s what to expect when you call (561) 264-1337:
- 1
Call and talk to a person. We answer the phone 24/7. We ask what you’re seeing: fog, drip, crack, or storm damage. We pull up your address and check what PGT line is likely on your home.
- 2
Site visit and measurement. Our background-checked, uniformed technician comes out, measures every opening twice, and checks the curb, flashing, and drainage while they’re up there. We write down what’s actually failing, not just what’s visible from the ground.
- 3
Line-by-line quote on paper. We price OEM PGT replacement parts side by side with quality aftermarket options where they exist, with durations stated for each warranty layer. You see exactly what you’re buying before you commit.
- 4
Removal and substrate repair. We remove the old panel or section, then repair what’s underneath. If the curb is rotten or the flashing is shot, we fix it now, not cover it up for the next owner.
- 5
Set, seal, and test. New glass goes in square and true. We check the seal, run a water test where it matters, and make sure the drainage path is clear before we pack up.
- 6
Warranty registration before we leave. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing, with durations stated. You get copies. If anything is not done right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right, no arguing.
What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Boca Raton
PGT roof replacement in Boca Raton has a wide range, and anyone quoting a single flat number without seeing your roof is guessing. Here’s what we typically see:
- Single PGT skylight replacement (PremierVu or Classic): $1,850 to $4,200, including curb re-flashing if needed.
- Single PGT roof vent or operable panel replacement: $900 to $2,400, depending on size and whether the frame is salvageable.

- Full PGT glass roof or sunroom roof system replacement: $15,000 to $32,000, depending on square footage, curb condition, and access difficulty.
What moves the price in Boca Raton: roof height and access, whether we’re matching existing PGT framing or replacing it, the condition of the curb and decking underneath, and whether you need storm-rated glass or standard insulated units. Every quote is line-item, on paper, with no surprise charges at the end. Call (561) 264-1337 for a free estimate and we’ll give you real numbers for your specific roof.

If the PGT line on your home is discontinued or backordered, we can also quote equivalent lines from CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, side by side on paper, so you’re never stuck waiting on one manufacturer’s timeline. The Done Right Promise covers every PGT roof job we do: if it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no fine print. If it isn’t square and it isn’t sealed, it isn’t done. Call (561) 264-1337 for a free estimate.
FAQs
In most cases we can replace a single PGT roof panel without disturbing the surrounding glass, as long as the original frame and curbs are still sound. We check the entire section while we’re up there, but we won’t sell you glass you don’t need. Call (561) 264-1337 and we’ll tell you straight what’s required.
Using an independent provider does not automatically void a PGT warranty, but improper installation can, and that’s where most homeowners get burned. We register both warranty layers in writing with durations stated before leaving your driveway, and we’re careful about using OEM parts where warranty coverage matters. Call (561) 264-1337 and we’ll review your specific PGT warranty before any work begins.
Most single-panel replacements take one day on site. A full sunroom roof system typically takes two to four working days, plus a few weeks for material ordering if we’re matching a custom PGT line. We’ll give you a firm timeline in writing when we quote the job. Call (561) 264-1337 for specifics.
If the glass is sound but the curbs and flashing are failing, repair is often the smarter money, and we’ll tell you that directly. If multiple panels show edge seal failure or the framing is corroding, replacement usually costs less than chasing leaks one panel at a time for the next five years. We’ll show you both numbers on paper and let you decide.
Yes, we install new PGT roof sections for sunrooms, patio enclosures, and additions in Boca Raton, including the structural curb work and drainage integration. We measure every opening twice and set the glass square and sealed before we call the job done. Call (561) 264-1337 to schedule a free estimate.
