How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

PGT builds a solid product, but Fort Myers heat, salt air, and hurricane-season wind loads expose weak points in any roof-mounted window or skylight. Here’s what we see most often on PGT jobs in Fort Myers.

• Flashing-collar separation on PGT WinGuard skylights. The rubber boot and aluminum collar that seal the skylight to the roof deck break down faster in Fort Myers than in most of the country because of constant UV exposure and salt drift from the Gulf. Water doesn’t pour in all at once, it seeps, and by the time you see a stain on the ceiling the decking underneath is already soft. We pull the skylight, replace the collar and boot, re-flash with Fort Myers code-compliant material, and re-seat the unit.
• Thermal seal failure on PGT 7700 Series roof windows. The 7700 Series uses insulated glass units, and those seals fail with age no matter how well the window was installed. What’s different about Fort Myers is the temperature swing between air-conditioned interiors and roof-level heat that can hit 140 degrees on an August afternoon. That differential stresses the seal and accelerates argon loss. We replace the IGU, not the whole window, and we register the new glass warranty in writing before we leave.
• Deck rot under PGT Eze-Breeze skylight curbs. The Eze-Breeze line works well for porch and lanai roof openings, but the curb fasteners are the weak point. Once a fastener backs out slightly, water tracks down the threads and rots the plywood around the curb. Homeowners don’t notice until the skylight starts to sag. We rebuild the curb, re-flash it, reset the unit, and tell you exactly what we found underneath so you’re not surprised later.
• Hurricane wind-latch fatigue on PGT roof windows. PGT roof windows with wind-latch hardware develop metal fatigue after enough storm cycles, and Fort Myers gets storms. When the latch no longer compresses the gasket, the wind gets under the frame and starts lifting it. We replace the latch mechanism, adjust the gasket, and test the seal with a water spray before we call the job done.
• Condensation between panes on PGT SunGuard-coated roof glass. SunGuard is a low-E coating, and it works well until the seal around the glass fails. In Fort Myers’s humidity, the condensation is worse than in drier markets. If your roof window fogs from the inside of the glass unit itself, that’s a seal failure, not a humidity problem in your attic. We replace the unit, not the frame, and we do it without disturbing the roof deck.

Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process

We keep the process simple because the work is complicated enough. Every PGT roof replacement and installation job in Fort Myers follows the same sequence.

1. 1
   The call. You call (239) 323-5522. A live person answers, takes your information, and schedules a site visit. You do not get a call center. You get us.
2. 2
   The assessment. One of our background-checked, uniformed technicians comes out and evaluates the existing PGT roof windows, skylights, flashing, decking, and roof structure. We measure every opening twice. We document what we find with photos and measurements you can keep.
3. 3
   The parts decision. We explain what needs replacing and give you options: OEM PGT components where they’re the right call, and quality aftermarket parts where they perform equally well at a lower cost. We show you the difference on paper, side by side. You decide, and we write the decision into the quote.
4. 4
   The work. We schedule the job, show up when we say we will, and do the work. Any demolition of the old roofing around the window or skylight is done carefully, decking is inspected and replaced where needed, and the new PGT unit is set, flashed, sealed, and tested. If a hidden problem arises, we stop and show you before we proceed. No surprise line items.
5. 5
   The test. We water-test every PGT roof window and skylight we install or repair before we clean up. If it leaks on the test, it gets fixed before we call the job done. That’s the point of the test.
6. 6
   The paperwork. Before the truck leaves, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing and hand you the documents. Then we review The Keystone Standard cover and the 90-Day Done Right Promise so you know exactly what’s backed.

What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Fort Myers

We quote fixed prices, not estimates that float. Here is what common PGT roof replacement and installation scenarios run in Fort Myers, based on the jobs we’ve done across Lee County.

• Replacing a failed PGT skylight (curb-mounted, standard size): $1,400 to $2,800, including flashing and sealing. Larger WinGuard skylights with impact-rated glass run $3,200 to $5,500.
• Replacing a PGT roof window (deck-mounted, standard size): $1,100 to $2,200, depending on the series and access. The 7700 Series with impact glass runs higher, typically $2,000 to $3,400 per unit.
• Full roof replacement with new PGT skylight or roof window installation: $9,800 to $24,000, depending on roof area, decking condition, number of openings, and whether you’re matching existing PGT products or adding impact-rated units.
• Flashing repair only (no unit replacement): $450 to $950 per opening, depending on roof pitch and access.

What moves the price: the roof pitch, how many layers of existing roofing need to come off, the condition of the decking, whether you need impact-rated glass to meet Fort Myers code, and how many openings you’re addressing in one trip. Get all the openings done at once and the per-opening labor cost drops.
