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

PGT roof replacement and installation in Wellington typically runs between $1,800 and $4,600 depending on the roof type, the PGT product line involved, and whether the opening needs reframing. Most jobs are completed within one to two days once materials are on site. We are an independent PGT service provider, not a manufacturer affiliate, which means we quote the work honestly and stand behind it in writing.

How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

In Wellington, we see the same PGT failure patterns year after year. The heat and humidity here work on roof units harder than any other climate in the state. Here’s what we find most often:

• PGT SkyView Series skylights leaking at the curb seal. The original sealant breaks down after eight to ten years of direct Florida sun. The unit looks fine from inside, but the curb flashing has pulled away. We don’t just caulk over it – we remove the old curb, inspect the roof deck for rot, and rebuild it before setting the new unit. That’s the only fix that lasts in Wellington’s wet season.
• Condensation between panes on roof-mounted PGT units. If you see fog inside the glass that won’t wipe away, the insulating seal has failed. In a roof unit, that means water is getting where it shouldn’t be. We replace the entire unit rather than the glass alone, because a roof unit is under constant thermal stress and a partial repair rarely holds.
• Warped frames on older PGT roof windows. Aluminum frames on units installed before 2010 can bow under heat cycles, especially on south-facing roofs in Wellington. A warped frame won’t seal properly even with fresh weatherstripping. We check for frame squareness first – if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
• Failed operators on PGT venting skylights. The crank mechanism or motor on venting roof windows wears out from repeated use in humid air. PGT’s own replacement parts are sound, but they’re often backordered. We can source quality aftermarket operators that match the original stroke length and mounting pattern, which keeps your unit functional without waiting eight weeks.
• Improper original installation. We remove PGT roof products in Wellington regularly that were never flashed correctly. No manufacturer’s product survives bad flashing. We rebuild the curb, install proper step flashing and counterflashing, and set the unit to the manufacturer’s published tolerances. That step – the flashing – is where cheap installs fail and where our work holds up.

Our PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Process

Here’s how a PGT roof job goes when you call TruePane Windows & Doors:

1. 1
   Measure and inspect. We measure the rough opening twice, check the roof deck for rot or movement, and document the existing flashing. Dale Kessler learned the trade measuring every opening twice, and we still do it that way.
2. 2
   Parts decision on paper. We show you the PGT model line options side by side – OEM parts where they make sense, quality aftermarket where they match or exceed spec – with line-item pricing. If it’s not right on the paperwork, it won’t be right on the wall.
3. 3
   Permit and schedule. Wellington requires permits for roof penetrations. We pull them, and we meet the inspector on site. Built-up paperwork is included in the quote.
4. 4
   Removal and rebuild. We remove the old unit, repair any deck damage, rebuild the curb, and set new flashing before the new unit goes in.
5. 5
   Set, seal, and test. The new PGT unit is set to tolerance, sealed with commercial-grade sealants rated for roof exposure, and water-tested before we clean up.
6. 6
   Warranty registration before we leave. Both warranty layers are registered in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway.

What PGT Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Wellington

Roof work costs more than wall work because of the access, the flashing, and the stakes if it leaks. Here’s what we typically quote in Wellington:

• Fixed skylight replacement (2′ x 4′ PGT SkyView): $1,800 to $2,800 installed
• Venting skylight with manual operator: $2,400 to $3,600 installed
• Motorized venting skylight: $3,000 to $4,600 installed
• Roof deck rebuild due to wood rot: adds $400 to $1,200 depending on damage
• New curb and flashing work: $350 to $700 above the unit cost
• Roof window with frame replacement: $2,800 to $4,200 installed

What moves the price is the roof pitch, whether we need a lift or scaffolding, and the condition of the deck underneath. Roof height and single-story versus two-story access matter. We give you a written line-item quote before any work starts, and the number on that quote is the number you pay. Call (561) 349-4826 for a free estimate on your PGT roof unit.
