PGT Roof Replacement & Installation in Stuart: What to Know First
PGT roof replacement and installation in Stuart generally runs between $8,500 and $24,000 depending on the roof system, the condition of the decking, and whether you’re replacing skylights or roof-mounted windows at the same time. Most full replacements take two to four working days once materials land. We’re an independent PGT service provider, which means we repair and install the product line without being tied to a manufacturer’s sales targets.
If you own a PGT roof window, skylight, or a PGT impact-rated roof assembly and you’re seeing leaks, fogged glass, or signs the flashing is letting go, this page is written for you. Call (754) 324-4646 and a live person will answer. That’s true at noon and at two in the morning.
Key Takeaways
- We service and install PGT roof windows, skylights, and roof assemblies in Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City, and Port Salerno. As an independent PGT service provider, we’re not a factory rep and we don’t answer to one.
- A PGT roof window that leaks is rarely the glass. It’s almost always the flashing, the underlayment integration, or a deck that shifted over twenty Florida summers.
- Every PGT job here carries the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before our truck leaves your driveway.
- We quote OEM and quality aftermarket parts side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re paying for and why.
How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
PGT builds a solid product, but no window or roof assembly survives Florida’s sun and storm cycles without something eventually letting go. Here’s what we actually find when we get on a Stuart roof.
- Flashing failure on PGT WinGuard skylights. The glass holds up, but the aluminum flashing kit corrodes where it meets the roof deck. In Stuart’s salt air, we see pinhole corrosion within ten to twelve years. We strip the old flashing, inspect the deck for rot, and re-flash with the correct PGT kit or a quality marine-grade aftermarket equivalent with a better sealant spec.
- Fogged glass on PGT 770 Series roof windows. A fogged sealed unit means the desiccant inside the spacer has given out. It’s not something you wipe off. We measure the rough opening, order the correct insulated glass unit, and reset the sash so it drains the way PGT designed it to.
- Deck rot under the curb mount. This one shows up on homes built in the 1980s and 1990s around Rio and North River Shores. The original installer set the curb on bare plywood and caulked the joint. Caulk fails, water sits, plywood rots. We don’t caulk over rot. We cut back to sound wood, sister in new framing if needed, rebuild the curb, and only then set the window.
- Operator failure on venting PGT roof windows. The hand crank or pole operator strips out over time, especially on units installed on south-facing slopes where the sun bakes the mechanism. The window itself is fine. We replace the operator assembly, re-lubricate the hinge points, and adjust the sash travel so it opens and closes without binding.
- Improper tie-in from a previous roofer. We’ve seen PGT roof assemblies that were re-roofed by crews who didn’t know how to integrate the window’s integrated flange with peel-and-stick underlayment. They nailed through the flange, voided the PGT warranty, and created a leak path. We re-flash the entire perimeter the correct way, which usually means pulling the window, resetting it, and doing the underlayment integration over.
If the opening is right, the rest is just doing the work.
Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Here’s how a PGT roof window or skylight job goes when you call us in Stuart.
- 1
We measure the opening twice. Not once. We check the rough opening dimensions, the deck condition, and the roofing material we’re tying into. Every tech who measures learned to read an opening by hand before we ever handed them a laser.
- 2
We quote on paper. You’ll see the OEM part price and a quality aftermarket option when one exists, side by side. We tell you which one we’d put in our own mother’s house and why.
- 3
We pull the old unit and expose the deck. This is where we find what the last installer hid. If there’s rot, you’ll see it. We photograph it. We don’t cover anything up.
- 4
We set the new or repaired unit. New flashing, new sealant, correct fasteners, and underlayment integration done the way the manufacturer’s engineering assumes it will be.
- 5
We water-test before we leave. A hose test around the full perimeter is standard. If water gets in, we’re not done. It’s that simple.
- 6
We register both warranty layers in writing. Before the truck leaves your driveway, you have the paperwork. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s not optional on any TruePane job.
What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Stuart
Roof work in Stuart costs what it costs because of what’s under the shingles or metal, not because of the brand name on the glass. Here are real ranges we quote in Martin County.
| PGT Job Type | Typical Range in Stuart | What Moves the Price |
|---|---|---|
| Fogged glass replacement on PGT 770 Series roof window | $600-$1,400 | Sash size, access difficulty, single vs. double pane |
| Flashing repair and reseal on PGT WinGuard skylight | $850-$1,900 | Deck condition, roof pitch, existing flashing type |
| Operator or hardware replacement | $250-$600 | Parts availability, unit age |
| Full skylight replacement (curb mount, standard size) | $2,800-$5,500 | Roof material, curb rebuild needed, disposal |
| Full roof window replacement with structural deck repair | $5,000-$11,000 | Extent of rot, framing repairs, permit requirements |
Any roofer or handyman who quotes you a number without looking at the deck first is guessing. We don’t guess. We come out, we look, and we hand you a written line-item quote with fixed pricing. No change orders, no surprise line items. Call (754) 324-4646 to schedule your free estimate.
Why Stuart Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for PGT Work
We’ve been setting glass and sealing openings up and down the Treasure Coast since 2008, and I’ve personally been on Stuart roofs since before half the subdivisions off Cove Road were built. We’re a second-generation glazier’s shop, not a franchise with a rotating crew. When a PGT roof window needs work, we know what it should look like when it’s done right because we’ve seen what it looks like when it isn’t.
Every tech who works on your roof is background-checked and uniformed, and every job carries our Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fight, no fine print. We also install and service CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, so if a PGT part is discontinued or backordered, we can usually offer you a workable path forward without leaving your roof open to the weather.
We don’t upsell glass you don’t need. I learned that from my father, who spent thirty years as a glazier in Rio before he handed me my first cutter. A square deal is the only kind we write.
FAQs
Most leaking PGT skylights in Stuart can be repaired by re-flashing and resealing the unit rather than replacing it. The glass on a WinGuard or 770 Series is rarely the source of the leak. The flashing, the sealant, or the deck underneath is. We’ll tell you which one it is after we look. If replacement is the honest answer, we’ll show you why with photos. Call (754) 324-4646 for an exact diagnosis and a free estimate.
No. Using an independent PGT service provider does not void a PGT warranty as long as the work is performed correctly and documented. As an independent PGT service provider, we register both warranty layers in writing on every job we complete. We also photograph the work in process so you have a record of exactly what was done. Call (754) 324-4646 if you have questions about your specific PGT warranty situation.
Once we have the correct unit or parts in hand, most PGT roof window replacements in Stuart take one full working day. If the deck needs structural repair, allow a second day. If the unit has to be ordered from PGT or a supplier, lead time in Martin County is typically one to three weeks depending on the model and glass package. Call (754) 324-4646 and we’ll give you a straight answer on availability.
When the job requires a permit under Martin County or City of Stuart code, we pull it. We don’t skip the permit to save you money because a skipped permit becomes your problem when you sell the house. If the work is a direct like-for-like replacement that doesn’t require one, we’ll tell you that too. Call (754) 324-4646 to find out what your specific job requires.
If PGT no longer manufactures your exact model, we’ll match the opening with a current PGT equivalent or a comparable unit from CGI, CWS, ES Windows, or ECO Window Systems. We’ve done enough of these to know which units drop into which rough openings without reframing the deck. We’ll quote the options side by side so you can decide with real numbers in front of you. Call (754) 324-4646 for a free assessment.
