Mr-Glass Roof Repair in Plantation: What to Know First

A typical Mr-Glass roof repair in Plantation runs $320 to $1,100 depending on the unit, the seal failure, and whether flashings need replacement. We are not an authorized Mr-Glass dealer or service center, but as an independent Mr-Glass service provider, we work on these units every month across Broward County.
If you own a home in Plantation with Mr-Glass skylights, roof windows, or sunroom glazing that’s leaked, fogged, or cracked, this page tells you what’s actually wrong and what it costs to fix. For a free estimate, call (772) 577-2915.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Mr-Glass units in Plantation see a particular set of failures driven by South Florida humidity, UV exposure, and the occasional tropical storm. Here’s what we find and what we do about it.
- Fogged Mr-Glass SkyView skylights from failed desiccant strips. Mr-Glass SkyView units use a butyl-sealed desiccant strip that eventually saturates in Plantation’s humidity. Once saturated, the strip can’t absorb moisture anymore, and condensation forms between the panes. We remove the sash, clean the glazing pocket, replace the desiccant and butyl, and re-seat the unit. You don’t replace the whole skylight for this unless the glass itself is etched.
- Leaking curb-mounted Mr-Glass units with cracked polyurethane sealant. Most Mr-Glass roof glazing sits on a site-built curb. The original sealant breaks down after 8 to 12 years under Plantation sun. Water follows the curb screws down into the ceiling. We strip the old sealant, inspect the curb for rot, re-flash with aluminum where needed, and re-seal with a high-movement polyurethane rated for Florida UV.
- Mr-Glass Conservatory panels with stress cracks at the frame corners. Mr-Glass conservatory and sunroom panels sometimes develop micro-cracks at the corner gaskets when the aluminum frame expands and contracts through Plantation’s hot afternoons and cooler winter mornings. Glass-to-metal contact at the corner is the culprit. We install proper setting blocks, replace the cracked lite if needed, and correct the gasket so the next pane isn’t stressed the same way.
- Failing motorized Mr-Glass venting skylights after storm-driven rain. The Mr-Glass motorized vent line has a known weak point at the lift-arm gasket. After enough wind-driven rain, water wicks along the arm into the room. The motor itself is usually fine. We replace the gasket, clear the weep channels, and bench-test the motor before putting the cover back on.
- Hail and debris impact from Plantation summer storms. Mr-Glass uses tempered glass on most roof units, which holds up until a storm throws a branch at it. When it breaks, it shatters into small cubes that rain down inside the room. We do emergency board-up and replacement, and we quote OEM-grade Mr-Glass replacement glass alongside equivalent domestic options so you can make an informed choice.
Our Mr-Glass Roof Repair Process
Every Mr-Glass roof repair we do in Plantation follows the same sequence. No shortcuts, no mystery steps billed at the end.
- 1
Call and diagnosis. You call (772) 577-2915. A live person answers. We schedule a time and show up when we say. Our technician inspects the unit from the roof and the interior, documents the failure with photos, and explains what’s wrong in plain terms.
- 2
Parts decision on paper. We write out OEM Mr-Glass options and quality aftermarket equivalents side by side, with prices. We don’t make that decision for you, and we don’t hide the trade-offs.
- 3
The repair. We strip failed sealant, replace gaskets, desiccant, or glass as needed, and correct whatever caused the failure, not just the symptom. If the curb is rotted, we address that before re-installing anything.
- 4
Water test. We run a controlled water test on the repaired unit and watch for any penetration. If water gets through, we’re not done. The founding rule at TruePane is simple: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 5
Cleanup and documentation. We clean the work area, remove all debris, and hand you a written summary of what was repaired, what parts were used, and what the warranty covers. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway.
- 6
90-day follow-up. Every Mr-Glass roof repair is covered by our Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we come back and make it right. No paperwork fights.
What Mr-Glass Roof Repair Costs in Plantation
Here are honest ranges for the Mr-Glass roof work we do most often in Plantation. These are fixed upfront prices, not estimates that grow a line item at a time.
- Fogged skylight desiccant and reseal: $320 to $540
- Curb sealant strip and re-flash: $450 to $780
- Tempered glass replacement for one Mr-Glass lite: $500 to $1,100, depending on size and glass spec
- Motorized vent gasket and motor bench test: $380 to $620
- Conservatory corner stress crack repair: $400 to $900, including new setting blocks
What moves the price: curb condition, glass size, whether the frame is salvageable, and whether permits are required. Plantation code enforcement on structural roof openings can require a permit when the curb itself is being rebuilt. We pull permits when the job calls for it. Every quote is free, in writing, and fixed. Call (772) 577-2915 and we’ll give you an exact number before any work starts.

FAQs
In most cases, no, as long as the repair uses proper materials and follows the original installation geometry. As an independent Mr-Glass service provider, we don’t have access to Mr-Glass warranty claim systems, but we repair in a way that preserves any remaining warranty coverage and document everything for you to file. Call (772) 577-2915 and we’ll walk through your specific unit.
Most Mr-Glass roof repairs in Plantation, including troubleshooting, parts placement, and water testing, are completed in a single visit of 2 to 4 hours. Larger jobs involving curb rebuilds or multiple panels may take a second visit. We’ll tell you before we start, and the price won’t change.
Yes. We stock common Mr-Glass gaskets, desiccant strips, and setting blocks in our service vehicles, and we have fast access to Mr-Glass-compatible tempered and laminated lites through our South Florida suppliers. For older Mr-Glass lines with discontinued profiles, we machine or source close-match aftermarket components that fit correctly.
If the frame, curb, and glazing pocket are sound, repair is usually the right call and the cheaper call. Replacement makes sense when the frame is corroded, the curb has rot, or the unit is old enough that multiple failures are likely within a year. We’ll quote both ways, on paper, and let you decide.
We currently offer a free written repair estimate, and a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans. These are standing offers, not limited-time pressure. Call (772) 577-2915 for your free estimate and we’ll apply what you qualify for.
