How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
ES Windows builds some of the cleanest aluminum and thermally broken skylights and roof glass in South Florida, but the roof is where every glass manufacturer meets its match. Wellington’s afternoon squalls, summer humidity, and the salt air pushing in from the coast test roof penetrations harder than any window on a wall. Here are the failure modes we see most often on ES Windows roof units in Wellington, and what we do about each one.
- ES VistaTherm flashed skylight curb separation. On VistaTherm skylights, the integrated curb is designed to sit flush on the roof deck, but Wellington’s wet-dry cycle expands and contracts the deck, slowly breaking the sealant bond between curb and flashing. The first sign is a small water stain on the ceiling drywall four to six feet downhill of the skylight, never directly under it. Homeowners chase the roof, then the tile, and the leak is at the curb. We pull the perimeter flashing, replace the sealant bed, re-flash with a mechanical bond, and test with a water wand before we even mention the inside repair.
- ES ES-FX slope-glazed panel gasket compression loss. On ES-FX slope-glazed roof panels, the extrusion gaskets that hold the insulated glass unit in place lose compression after years of Florida UV. The rubber shrinks, hairline gaps open at the corners, and water works in behind the glass during wind-driven rain. The glass is fine; the gasket job is not. We re-glaze the panel with a fresh compression gasket sized to the exact extrusion profile, which restores the original load path without replacing a perfectly good lite of glass.
- Roof window condensation traced to failed ventilation baffle, not the seal. This is one most owners never hear from the manufacturer. On ES roof windows with integrated ventilation channels, Wellington’s high indoor humidity meets cooler roof glass and condenses inside the channel. When the baffle clogs with dust and the weep holes plug, the water backs up and presents as a “failed seal.” We clean the channel, clear the weeps, and in half the cases the unit does not need replacement. That’s a detail you will not find on a spec sheet.
- Flashing step-flash gaps on re-roof aftermarket installs. We see this at least once a month in Wellington: a roofer replaced the standing seam or tile years after the ES Windows unit went in, and the new step flashing does not match the ES Windows curb profile. The roofer did what roofers do, and the skylight took the blame. We re-work the flashing transition to the ES Windows curb, re-seal, and the leak is gone for good. The unit never needed replacing.
- Overhead glass panel drain channel blockage on Wellington flat-roof sections. ES aluminum overhead glass on flat or low-slope Wellington roofs uses a perimeter drain channel to carry water away from the glass. When oak pollen and dirt from the Equestrian Preserve area build up, the channel clogs, water pools, and the sill gasket sits in standing water until it fails. We clear the channel, rebuild the sill gasket, and the unit drains the way it was designed to.
Our ES Windows Roof Repair Process
We run an ES Windows roof repair as a job, not a service call with a guess at the end. Here is the sequence we follow, every time.
- 1
Call and diagnosis. A live person answers at (561) 349-4826. We ask where the stain is, what kind of roof you have, and when you first noticed it. If it is an active leak, we will tell you to tarp or bucket until we arrive. We never diagnose over the phone; we listen.
- 2
On-site inspection. Our technician arrives in uniform, goes up on the roof, and checks the ES Windows curb, flashing, gasket, glass, and drain path. We take photos and show you what we found. If it is not the ES Windows unit, we tell you and we refer you to a roofer we trust.
- 3
Parts decision. If a part is needed, we price OEM ES Windows parts and quality aftermarket equivalents side by side on paper. For gaskets and sealants, aftermarket is usually equal or better in Wellington’s climate. For structural components, we recommend OEM. The choice is yours, in writing, before any work starts.
- 4
The repair. We do the work with the right tools and the right sealant, not whatever is on the truck. The drainage path is cleared, the flashing is re-worked, the gasket is re-set. We measure every opening twice before we apply the final bead.
- 5
Water test and walk-through. We test the repair with a controlled water application and show you the unit shedding water correctly. We walk you through what we did and why. No mystery work.
- 6
Paperwork and the Done Right Promise. Before the truck leaves your driveway, your warranty layers are registered in writing and the Done Right Promise applies. If it is not done right, we make it right. No arguing.

What moves the price: roof pitch and access, the age of the existing flashing, whether the unit is on a second-story Wellington roof versus a single-story ranch, and whether OEM parts are required. We give you a written, line-item quote before work begins. The price on the quote is the price on the bill. Call (561) 349-4826 for a free estimate on your specific ES Windows roof unit.
Why Wellington Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work
We have been setting glass in South Florida since 2008 through a heritage that started with our founder, Dale Kessler, whose family roots run straight through Wellington’s Paddock Park neighborhood. That local history matters when you need roof repair. We know what Wellington roofs go through in July, what the Equestrian Preserve wind pattern does to skylight flashing, and what an ES Windows unit should look like after ten seasons of Florida sun. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they work in your home the way they would work in their own mother’s. We are also an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems. That matters when an ES Windows unit is beyond repair and we need to quote you an honest replacement option side by side with repair. If it’s not right on the paperwork, it won’t be right on the wall. We stand behind the work, in writing, every time.
FAQs
Independent repair does not automatically void an ES Windows warranty, and as an independent ES Windows service provider we do work that is warranty-safe by using the correct sealant systems, gasket profiles, and mechanical fastening methods. If the unit is still under manufacturer warranty, we will tell you before we touch it, and we will help you decide whether to file a claim with ES Windows or proceed with our repair. Call (561) 349-4826 and we will walk you through your specific warranty situation.
The answer is in the sealant, the flashing, and the gasket, not in the glass itself. If the insulated glass is fogged or the frame is corroded through, replacement is the honest answer. If the leak is at the curb, the flashing, or a gasket, repair is usually the smarter money. We will tell you which one you need, and we will quote both options on paper if the call is close. Call (561) 349-4826 for a free inspection.
Most ES Windows roof repairs on a standard Wellington home are completed the same day we arrive, which means the leak is stopped and the seal is cured before the next afternoon storm. We keep the common gasket profiles and sealants for ES Windows units on our trucks. Call (561) 349-4826 and a live person will get you scheduled.
We use both, and we price them side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you are paying for. For structural components, we recommend OEM.

Call (561) 349-4826 for a straight answer on your unit.
