Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation in Westgate: What to Know First
Mr-Glass roof replacement in Westgate typically runs $8,500 to $22,000 depending on roof size, material choice, and whether underlying decking needs work. Most full replacements take 2 to 5 days once permits are approved, and we keep the job site clean enough to live around while the work happens. We’re an independent Mr-Glass service provider in Westgate, not a manufacturer-authorized crew, which means we answer to you and our own reputation, not a corporate warranty department.
This page is for Westgate homeowners who already have Mr-Glass roofing products and need honest answers about replacement, repair, or full re-installation. If you’re looking for a crew that shows up, prices the job upfront, and stands behind the work with Ed Winslow’s name on it, you’re in the right place. Call (561) 468-6136 and a live person picks up, day or night.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Mr-Glass roofing products hold up well in Florida, but no roof is indestructible, and we’ve seen enough Westgate homes to know exactly where these systems start to show their age. Here’s what we find most often:
- Mr-Glass tile roofing with cracked underlayment seams. The tiles themselves often look fine from the street, but the underlayment beneath them breaks down first in our humidity. When we pull a section, the felt or synthetic layer has dried and split along the seams, letting moisture sit against the decking. The fix is a full underlayment replacement with tiles re-bedded and re-pointed, not just a surface patch.
- Mr-Glass shingle lines with granule loss concentrated on the western exposure. Westgate afternoons are brutal, and the sun hits the west-facing slope hardest. We see Mr-Glass shingle roofs where the granules are nearly gone on one side while the other side still has years left. That’s a replacement, not a repair, because exposed asphalt matting fails fast once the granules go.
- Flashing failures at valleys and pipe penetrations on Mr-Glass metal roofs. Metal panels can outlast the flashing around them, especially where a roof meets a wall or a vent pipe. We find corroded or lifted flashing that’s channeling water under the panels. On a Mr-Glass metal roof, we replace the flashing and re-seal with a high-temp roofing sealant rated for Florida’s thermal cycling.
- Mr-Glass flat roofing with ponding water after heavy Westgate afternoon storms. Low-slope sections trap water, and standing water breaks down the membrane faster than the sun does. If the decking underneath is still sound, we can re-coat or re-membrane. If it’s soft, the section gets cut out and rebuilt.
- Nail pops and lifted shingles on Mr-Glass roofs installed by other crews. We can’t speak to how every roof was originally put on, but we regularly see Mr-Glass roofs in Westgate where installers used the wrong nail pattern or skipped the starter strip. The shingles lift in our wind, then tear, and water gets under the whole system. We pull the bad sections, correct the fastening, and replace what’s beyond saving.
Our Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation Process
Every Mr-Glass roof replacement or installation we handle in Westgate follows the same path, and we don’t skip steps to save time:
- 1
Call and assessment. You reach a live person, we schedule the inspection, and Ed or a senior tech walks the roof, checks the attic, and documents everything with photos.
- 2
Written line-item estimate. You get a fixed price with material costs, labor, permit fees, and haul-away broken out separately. No vague allowances.
- 3
Parts and material decision. If Mr-Glass OEM materials make sense for your roof and are available, we use them. If a quality aftermarket option matches or exceeds OEM spec for less money, we tell you that too and let you choose.
- 4
Permits and scheduling. We pull the permit in Westgate, schedule the crew, and tell you exactly when we’ll start and how long it will take.
- 5
Demo, replacement, and daily cleanup. Old roofing comes off, decking gets inspected and replaced where needed, new Mr-Glass roofing goes on, and the site gets cleaned every single day.
- 6
Final inspection and walkthrough. We walk the roof together, point out what we did, and you get the Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not done right, we make it right.
What Mr-Glass Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Westgate
Flat numbers without seeing your roof are guesses, but here are honest ranges for Westgate homes we’ve worked on:
- Mr-Glass shingle roof replacement on a 1,800 sq ft ranch: $9,500 to $14,000
- Mr-Glass tile roof full replacement with new underlayment on a 2,200 sq ft home: $16,000 to $22,000
- Mr-Glass metal roof installation on a 2,000 sq ft home: $14,000 to $19,500

- Full tear-off with new decking throughout: add $2,500 to $5,000 depending on how much decking has to go
What moves the price most is decking condition, roof pitch, and whether the old roof has one layer or two. We’ll give you an exact number before any work starts, and it won’t change unless you change the scope.

Why Westgate Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for Mr-Glass Work
Ed Winslow grew up just off Hialeah Drive, close enough to Westgate that he still considers the neighborhood his backyard. That’s why a Mr-Glass roof replacement here isn’t just another ticket to us. We’ve been doing this since 2011, and we’re the locally owned, owner-operated alternative to the faceless national chains running Mr-Glass product lines. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do. My name’s on the truck. If it’s not right, I’ll make it right.

And because we also install PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, we understand how your Mr-Glass roofing connects to the rest of your exterior, not just the roof in isolation.

FAQs
Does replacing my Mr-Glass roof void the manufacturer warranty? No. As an independent Mr-Glass service provider, our replacement work does not void the original manufacturer warranty on any components that remain in place. We use materials that meet or exceed the original spec, and we document every step in case you ever need to file a claim.
How long does a Mr-Glass roof replacement take in Westgate? Most shingle and metal roof replacements in Westgate take 2 to 4 days from tear-off to final inspection, depending on size and weather. Tile roofs usually run 4 to 5 days because of the underlayment and re-bedding work. You’ll know the schedule before we start.
Can you match the existing Mr-Glass roof on a partial replacement? In most cases, yes. If Mr-Glass is still manufacturing your exact line, we order it. If the line has been discontinued, we’ll source the closest visual and structural match and show you samples before we install anything. You approve the match before we order it.
Do I need to replace the whole Mr-Glass roof or just the damaged section? It depends on your roof’s age, the decking condition underneath, and how the damage happened. If the decking is sound and the surrounding materials have life left, a partial replacement often makes sense. We’ll show you photos from the inspection so you can see what we see, then decide together.
Will the price change once the work starts? No. The price we quote is the price you pay unless you ask us to expand the scope. If we open up the roof and find decking damage we couldn’t see from the surface, we stop, show you the problem, and give you a fixed price to address it before we proceed. No surprises on the invoice. Call (561) 468-6136 to schedule your free estimate.
