PGT Roof Replacement & Installation in Lauderhill: What to Know First

PGT roof replacement and installation in Lauderhill means setting impact-rated windows and doors into roof-adjacent openings, skylights, and second-story gable ends where the roof line meets the glass. We handle full replacements, new-construction installs, and retrofits on PGT WinGuard, PGT 5500 Series, and PGT PremierVue lines. Most jobs are measured, quoted, and completed within one to three weeks depending on product lead times, and pricing runs honest mid-market: not the cheapest bid you’ll find in Broward County, but the last one you’ll need to make. If you own a PGT home and the roof line is part of the job, call (850) 303-7739 and a live person will answer.

This page is written for homeowners in Lauderhill who already know the PGT name and need straight answers about what it takes to replace or install those products correctly when a roof is involved.

How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

PGT builds a solid product, but every window and door line has its weak points. After three decades of setting and sealing glass across Broward County, these are the failure patterns we see most often on PGT jobs tied to roof replacement and installation:

• WinGuard vinyl frame deflection at roof-line headers. PGT WinGuard is a heavy impact window. When a roofer replaces decking or a fascia board and doesn’t account for the additional load path at the header, the frame can deflect enough to break the seal or bind the sash. We see this regularly in Lauderhill’s older ranch homes where the roof line was built before impact glass. The fix is pulling the unit, resetting it on a proper header with new flashing, and resealing to manufacturer spec before the roofer finishes.
• PremierVue corner seal stress. The PremierVue line has a narrow frame profile that looks clean but leaves less sealant surface at the corners. When a roof replacement changes the humidity profile or the building settles after new decking goes on, those corners are the first place to fail. We reset the glass, apply a full-perimeter seal, and check the reveal before closing the wall.
• 5500 Series hardware drift after roof work. The 5500 Series sliding glass door is common on Lauderhill patio-facing roofs and second-story decks. Roof replacement means workers walking over the roof above those door openings, which can shift the header. A door that rolled true before the roof job may suddenly bind at the strike side. We re-shim the jamb, realign the rollers, and reset the track so the door moves like it did from the factory.
• Flashing failures at skylight-to-roof transitions. This is the one homeowners miss. PGT skylights and roof windows depend on a continuous flashing plane from glass to shingle. If a roofer reuses old flashing or bends it out of shape, the leak doesn’t show up for two dry seasons. In Lauderhill, with our afternoon storm cycles, the water finds it faster. We strip the old flashing, install new step flashing integrated with the PGT curb, and seal every fastener with a UV-stable sealant.
• Mull joint separation on stacked PGT configurations. Lauderhill homes with second-story gable windows often have stacked PGT units joined by mull bars. Roof replacement shifts the load above those mull joints. If the original installer used a mull cap that was even slightly off-true, the joint opens up after roof work. We disassemble, reset the mull alignment, and reseal the joint so the water barrier is continuous.

If the spec sheet doesn’t back it up, we don’t say it. Everything listed above is something we’ve fixed at least a dozen times in Lauderhill alone.

Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process

Every PGT job tied to a roof line follows the same sequence. There are no surprise steps and no second appointment left hanging.

1. 1
   On-site measurement and opening inspection. We measure every opening twice, including the reveal, the header depth, and the roof-to-glass flashing condition. If the roof line is involved, we check the decking, fascia, and drip edge before quoting.
2. 2
   Side-by-side quote on paper. We price the PGT line you own plus one or two comparable alternatives from lines we carry, including CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems. You see the numbers, the lead times, and the warranty durations before you commit.
3. 3
   Product ordering and lead-time confirmation. PGT lead times vary by series and glass package. We confirm the factory date in writing and update you if anything moves.
4. 4
   Removal, prep, and coordinated flashing work. We pull the old unit, repair or replace any rotted wood or damaged flashing at the roof line, and prep the opening to PGT’s installation spec. If a roofer is on site, we coordinate so neither crew creates a problem for the other.
5. 5
   Set, seal, and water-test. We set the unit, shim it true, fasten to spec, and apply a full-perimeter seal. Then we run a water test on every roof-adjacent opening before we pack up.
6. 6
   Warranty registration and the Done Right Promise. Before the truck leaves the driveway, both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing with the durations stated. If anything isn’t done right within 90 days, we make it right. No paperwork fight, no fine print that covers neither.

What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Lauderhill

PGT pricing in Lauderhill depends on the series, the size of the opening, and whether the roof line requires structural work. These are the ranges we quote most often:

• PGT WinGuard single-hung replacement (roof-adjacent): $1,100 to $2,400 per opening, installed, before any structural repair.
• PGT 5500 Series sliding glass door with roof-line header repair: $3,800 to $7,500 installed, depending on header condition and track replacement needs.
• PGT PremierVue fixed picture window with new flashing at the roof line: $1,600 to $3,200 installed.
• PGT roof window or skylight replacement with full flashing replacement: $2,200 to $4,600 installed, including new step flashing and sealant work.
• Full second-story gable replacement with stacked PGT units: $6,500 to $14,000 installed, depending on the number of openings and mull work required.

What moves the price: rotted headers, old flashing that must be replaced, opening size, and whether the glass package is standard laminated or a higher-tier energy coating. We quote fixed prices before work starts. No change orders. Call (850) 303-7739 for a free estimate with numbers on paper.
