Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation in Pompano Beach: What to Know First
Mr-Glass roof replacement and installation in Pompano Beach is work we handle as an independent Mr-Glass service provider, not as a factory-authorized dealer. Most Mr-Glass roof glass jobs in the area take one to two days on site, depending on how many panels need setting and whether the curb framing is still sound. Our price posture is straightforward: we quote the job on paper before we start, and the number on that sheet is the number on the final bill.
This page is written for homeowners in Pompano Beach and the surrounding Broward County neighborhoods who own a Mr-Glass skylight, roof glazing system, or glass roof feature and want to know what replacement actually involves, what it costs, and who they can trust to do it once. If you’d rather just talk it through, call (863) 591-8673 and a live person will answer, day or night.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Mr-Glass roof units tend to fail in predictable ways after enough Pompano Beach summers. We see the same patterns repeat across Lighthouse Point, Hillsboro Shores, and the older sections of Pompano Beach Highlands. Here are the five we run into most often:
- Perimeter seal delamination on the Mr-Glass Vista line. The Vista series uses a butyl-based perimeter seal that breaks down under sustained UV exposure and salt spray. Pompano Beach sits close enough to the Atlantic that airborne salt accelerates the breakdown. Homeowners notice condensation between the panes first, then water staining on the inside curb. Our fix is full panel removal, curb cleaning, fresh structural sealant, and a new panel set with ultraviolet-stable glazing tape. Patching the old seal buys a season, not a decade.
- Stress cracks at the corner radius on Mr-Glass Solarium units. The Solarium line uses tempered glass with a tight corner radius. When the aluminum frame expands in the Pompano Beach heat and the panel is set even slightly too tight, the corner is where the stress concentrates. A hairline crack that starts at one corner will run across the panel within a season or two. We set these panels with manufacturer-spec edge clearance, which means measuring the opening twice and trimming the setting blocks, not just dropping the glass in.
- Failed weep gaskets on Mr-Glass Atrium ridge caps. The Atrium ridge cap depends on small weep channels to drain condensation out of the glazing channel. Those channels clog with windblown sand, pollen, and the fine grit that comes off Pompano Beach’s construction sites. When the channels plug, water pools against the interior seal and eventually works its way into the living space. We clean the weep system as part of every Atrium replacement and check the channel slope before the new panel goes in. If the slope is off, we correct the curb before we set glass, because no sealant cures a bad pitch.
- Hazing and interior film breakdown on Mr-Glass Comfort panels. The Comfort line ships with a low-E coating on the interior face of the glass. In coastal Pompano Beach homes, that coating sometimes oxidizes early, especially where roof units trap heat. The glass turns milky and the light transmission drops. There is no polishing this out. The panel comes out, the new one goes in, and we register the new panel’s warranty with the glass manufacturer in writing before we leave your driveway.
- Frame rot and curb failure on Mr-Glass Classic units installed before 2005. The Classic series used a thinner aluminum frame profile than the newer lines. In Pompano Beach’s humidity, the curb flashing underneath those older frames often corrodes at the fastener points. By the time the glass fails, the curb itself needs attention. We pull the old frame, inspect the curb, replace any rotted or rusted sections, and then set the new unit on a rebuilt base. Setting new glass on a rotten curb is the definition of doing the job twice.
Our Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Every Mr-Glass roof job we take follows the same sequence, whether it’s a single skylight over a bathroom or a full atrium ridge. Dale Kessler keeps it posted in the shop because a repeatable process leaves less room for error than a clever one.
- 1
Site call and measurement. We come to your Pompano Beach home, take the roof pitch, measure the curb opening twice, and photograph the existing unit from above and below. We also note the roof material around the curb, because a tile roof and a shingle roof flash differently.
- 2
Parts decision on paper. We quote OEM Mr-Glass panels when factory parts are still available, and we quote quality aftermarket equivalents side by side when they are not. You see both prices, both lead times, and both warranty durations on a single sheet. If it isn’t in writing, it isn’t a warranty.
- 3
Removal and curb inspection. We take the old unit out, inspect the curb and flashing, and tell you what we find before we set anything new. If the curb needs work, we stop and show you. No surprise work gets done without your say-so.
- 4
Set, seal, and flash. The new panel is set with proper edge clearance and structural sealant. Flashing is lapped to match your roof type. Fasteners are matched to the curb material, not whatever is in the truck.
- 5
Water test and cleanup. We run water over the finished installation with a controlled hose test before we pack up. Broken glass, old sealant, and packaging all leave with us.
- 6
Warranty registration and your copy. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves, and you get the paperwork. That’s the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard, the same on every Mr-Glass job we do.
What Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Pompano Beach
Mr-Glass roof glass work in Pompano Beach runs on a fairly wide range because the job depends on the panel size, the roof pitch, and whether the curb underneath is still sound. Here are the numbers we quote most often:
| Job Type | Typical Range in Pompano Beach |
|---|---|
| Single Mr-Glass Vista skylight replacement (standard curb, no structural work) | $900 - $1,600 installed |
| Mr-Glass Solarium corner panel with stress crack | $650 - $1,100 per panel |
| Mr-Glass Atrium ridge cap reseal and panel reset (full ridge) | $1,800 - $3,400 |
| Full Mr-Glass roof glazing replacement with partial curb repair | $4,500 - $9,000 |
| Emergency tarp and board-up after storm damage (holds until replacement) | $450 - $900 |
What moves the price: roof pitch and access, whether the curb needs rebuild, and whether OEM Mr-Glass panels are still available or we are moving to a quality aftermarket equivalent.

Why Pompano Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for Mr-Glass Work
We have been installing and fixing roof glass across Broward County long enough that Pompano Beach homeowners know what our name means. The work is backed by the Done Right Promise, and the warranty registration is handled before our truck leaves your driveway. Every technician who shows up is background-checked and uniformed, and every job is set to the same standard Dale Kessler has used since he learned the trade: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
We also carry and install a full range of other roof glass and glazing lines, including PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows. That matters on a Mr-Glass job because when an OEM panel is no longer available, we are not stuck guessing. We can quote you a direct replacement from another manufacturer with the same light transmission and the same structural rating, and we can do it side by side on paper. One call, one visit, one square deal.
FAQs
Replacing a failed Mr-Glass panel through an independent service provider like TruePane Windows & Doors does not void the original manufacturer warranty on the rest of your Mr-Glass system, provided the remaining units are not altered or damaged during the replacement. We work carefully around surrounding panels to preserve whatever factory coverage still applies. For exact terms on your Mr-Glass warranty, call the manufacturer directly, and call us at (863) 591-8673 for a written estimate on the replacement work.
Most standard Mr-Glass roof panel replacements in Pompano Beach are completed within five to seven business days from the day you approve the written estimate, with OEM availability and panel size being the two biggest variables. Custom or discontinued Mr-Glass lines may take longer because the glass has to be fabricated to match. Call (863) 591-8673 and we will give you an honest lead time on your specific unit, not a generic number.
If the leak is coming through a failed seal or a cracked panel, replacement is almost always the right call, because a resealed Mr-Glass unit will typically fail again within a season or two in Pompano Beach’s heat and salt air. If the leak is at the flashing or the curb, a targeted repair may buy you several more years, but only an inspection can tell you which situation you have. Call (863) 591-8673 and we will come out, look at it, and tell you straight which route makes sense.
We use OEM Mr-Glass panels whenever they are available and competitively priced, and we quote high-quality aftermarket equivalents side by side on paper when they are not. Every panel we set, whether factory or aftermarket, is tempered to code and carries a written warranty registered before we leave your driveway. You always see both options before you commit.
We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards for Mr-Glass roof replacement and installation work in Pompano Beach. Financing is available through third-party lenders for qualifying projects, and we can discuss those options when we provide your written estimate. Call (863) 591-8673 for details on your specific job.
If you own a Mr-Glass roof unit in Pompano Beach and it is fogged, cracked, leaking, or just old enough that you are not sure, call (863) 591-8673 for a free estimate. A live person answers, and we’ll walk you through what we see, what we recommend, and what it costs, in writing, before any work begins. We stand behind it.
