How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
PGT is best known for impact windows and doors, but many Fountainebleau homes carry PGT-branded roof components, skylights, and integrated flashing systems tied to their exterior envelope products. When those fail, the fix isn’t always as simple as swapping shingles. Here’s what we see most often and what we actually do about it.
- Flashing failures around PGT skylight curbs. Homes with PGT WinGuard skylights or roof-integrated glass often develop leaks at the curb flashing, not the glass itself. South Florida thermal cycling plus Fountainebleau’s summer downpours cause the sealant to dry and lift. We remove the old flashing, inspect the curb for rot, and refit with new metal and butyl tape, not caulk over old caulk.
- Chimney and pipe boot rot on older PGT-era rooflines. Many Fountainebleau homes built in the late ’90s and early 2000s that now carry PGT exterior upgrades still have original roof penetrations. The neoprene boots around vent pipes crack after 15-plus years of UV exposure. Water then runs under the shingles and into the decking. We replace all boots as a standard part of any roof replacement, and we check for deck rot before laying down new underlayment.
- Decking delamination under PGT roof-mounted solar or glass. Where PGT roof glass or solar tubes sit, the decking underneath takes more stress than the roofline around it. Condensation plus the weight of the glass means the plywood or OSB breaks down faster. We routinely find soft decking in these spots on Fountainebleau homes that otherwise look fine from the street. We price decking replacement honestly per sheet, and we show you what we pulled up.
- Improper repairs from previous contractors who didn’t understand PGT integration. A PGT exterior envelope is designed to work as a system. When a prior roofer replaced shingles but didn’t re-sync the flashing with PGT window or door headers, water finds the gap. We see this often: a roof replaced, new leaks appear, and the homeowner is told they need new windows. They don’t. They just need a roofer who understands how PGT components tie together.
- Starter row and drip edge problems on low-slope sections. Many Fountainebleau homes have low-pitch roof sections over carports or additions. Shingle manufacturers and PGT both specify particular starter row and drip edge details for these slopes, and when they’re skipped, the shingles curl and the decking stays wet. We redo those sections correctly, with the right membrane and the right starter course, and we document what we installed.

What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Fountainebleau
Honest numbers matter, so here’s what a PGT-roofline replacement actually runs in this part of Miami-Dade.
- Basic shingle roof replacement on a 1,500-square-foot Fountainebleau home: $9,800 to $14,500, including tear-off, underlayment, shingles, flashing, boots, and disposal.
- Larger homes or homes with PGT skylights and multiple gables: $16,000 to $24,000, depending on decking condition and how much curb and flashing work the PGT components need.
- Decking replacement: $75 to $110 per sheet, only for the sheets that actually need it. You see the damaged decking before we haul it away.
- Full re-flash around PGT skylights or roof glass: $400 to $900 per unit, including new metal, sealant, and inspection.
What moves the price: roof height and pitch, how many penetrations, the condition of the decking, and whether the PGT components around the roof need re-flashing. Call (727) 620-6983 and we’ll give you an exact number. Estimates are free.
