AfterMr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation in Lauderhill: What to Know First
Independent Mr-Glass roof replacement and installation in Lauderhill runs between $850 and $4,200 on average, depending on the skylight or roof glass unit involved, its size, and whether the curb and flashing need rebuilding. Most Mr-Glass jobs of this type are measured, quoted, and completed in one or two visits, and we provide written line-item quotes before any work begins. If you own a Mr-Glass roof unit in Lauderhill that’s leaking, fogged, or cracked, call (850) 303-7739 and we’ll schedule a free estimate.
This page is for homeowners in Lauderhill who have a Mr-Glass skylight, roof window, or glazed roof panel that needs replacing or new installation. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, an independent Mr-Glass service provider. We are not affiliated with or authorized by Mr-Glass, which means we answer to you, not to a manufacturer’s sales quota. Dale Kessler has been measuring and setting glass across Broward County for the better part of three decades, and the standard on every job is the same: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Condensation between panes on Mr-Glass insulated roof units. Lauderhill’s humidity works against every sealed glass unit, but Mr-Glass roof panels take it harder because they sit flat under direct sun. The seal fails, moisture creeps in between the lites, and you get that permanent fog no one can wipe away. We remove the old unit, measure the opening twice, and set a new insulated unit with fresh sealant rated for Florida roof exposure.
- Leaking curbs and flashing around Mr-Glass roof windows. The glass itself is rarely the first thing to go on a Mr-Glass roof unit. What fails is the water seal where the curb meets the roof deck. In Lauderhill, afternoon thunderstorms and hurricane season push water sideways, not just down. We rebuild the curb, replace flashing with corrosion-resistant material, and re-bed the unit so water stays where it belongs: outside.
- Cracked or shattered domes on Mr-Glass acrylic skylights. Older Mr-Glass domes, particularly the low-profile fixed models, get brittle after ten to fifteen years in constant UV exposure. A branch, a storm-tossed piece of debris, or even thermal stress from a fast temperature swing can crack them. We carry and source OEM-grade replacements and can swap most domes the same day as the inspection.
- Failed gas-filled low-e coatings starting to discolor. Some Mr-Glass roof units use low-emissivity coatings to cut heat gain. After years in Florida sun, that coating can begin to haze or develop a bronzed tint at the edges. It’s not a cleaning problem. The unit needs replacing. We quote Mr-Glass-compatible replacements with modern low-e glass that handles Lauderhill heat the way the original was supposed to.
- Improper slope or support causing stress cracks on larger Mr-Glass panels. Big roof glass sections need proper support and drainage slope. If the original install was done on too shallow a pitch or without adequate framing, the glass flexes, and hairline stress cracks start at the corners. When we’re in, we check the framing and adjust support as part of the replacement. That’s the difference between a swap-out and a fix.
Our Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation Process
- 1
Call and talk to a person. A live person answers at (850) 303-7739, 24 hours a day. You describe what you’re seeing: a drip, a fog, a crack, a draft. We schedule a time that works, and we show up when we say we will.
- 2
Inspection and measurement on site. We inspect the existing Mr-Glass unit, the curb, the flashing, and the roof condition around it. Every opening is measured twice. If the spec sheet doesn’t back it up, we don’t say it.
- 3
Written line-item quote, side by side. You get a written quote breaking out materials, labor, and options. OEM Mr-Glass parts where available, or quality aftermarket units we trust. No surprise line items on the final bill. A square deal, from the start.
- 4
Removal and preparation. The old unit comes out carefully so surrounding roofing and drywall aren’t damaged. We address the real cause of the problem, not just the visible symptom. If the curb is rotted or the flashing is compromised, it gets rebuilt before the new unit goes in.
- 5
Setting the new Mr-Glass-compatible unit. New glass, new sealant, new flashing where needed. We set the unit level and true, secure it for Lauderhill wind loads, and seal it with materials made for Florida roof exposure.
- 6
Testing, cleanup, and warranty registration. We water-test where practical, clean up the job site, and walk you through what was done. The Keystone Standard means both warranty layers are registered in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway. The Done Right Promise covers everything after.

FAQs
Mr-Glass parts availability varies, and many older lines are discontinued. In most cases, replacing the full roof unit is more cost-effective than chasing a gasket or seal that’s no longer manufactured. We quote OEM-compatible Mr-Glass units where they exist, along with quality aftermarket options that match the roof opening, so you see both on paper. Call (850) 303-7739 and we’ll come look at what you have.
If the original Mr-Glass unit is under manufacturer warranty, we document everything needed for a claim. If it’s out of warranty, as most are by the time they fail here in Lauderhill, we still register both warranty layers on the new unit in writing before we leave. No one’s guessing what’s covered or for how long.
Most standard Mr-Glass dome or roof window replacements are done in a single visit, usually four to six hours. If the curb and flashing need rebuilding, that’s often a second visit, but we’ll tell you the plan and the schedule before we start. We don’t leave a second appointment hanging.
We measure the opening and the curb twice, and most Mr-Glass units can be replaced with a direct-fit unit. When the curb is rotted or built out of spec, we rebuild it to the right slope and size for the replacement unit. The roof opening drives the work, not the other way around.
Sometimes. If the leak is coming from degraded sealant or flashing and the glass itself is sound, resealing runs $350 to $850 and may buy you real time. But if the glass is fogged, cracked, or the unit is twenty years old, replacement is the better money. We’ll tell you which way the math goes, honestly. Call (850) 303-7739 for an exact assessment and a free estimate.
If your Mr-Glass roof unit in Lauderhill needs replacing or installing, call (850) 303-7739. A live person answers, we schedule when it works for you, and we show up with a written quote and the job done right the first time.
