How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

PGT roofing products hold up well in South Florida, but nothing survives a Fort Lauderdale summer unscathed. Here’s what we see most often on PGT jobs and what we do about it:

• PGT shingle sealant breakdown at the eave line. The self-sealing adhesive strip on PGT architectural shingles loses grip in sustained heat and humidity. This shows up as lifted shingle tabs after a line of thunderstorms. We reseal or replace individual tabs rather than reroofing a section, which keeps the repair small and the roof intact.
• PGT tile roof flashing corrosion at sidewall transitions. Galvanized flashing on PGT tile installations corrodes at the joint where a roof wall meets stucco, especially on older homes along Las Olas or in Sailboat Bend. We remove the old flashing, cut back corroded metal, and install a longer return leg with proper sealant, so water stops tracking into the wall cavity.
• PGT metal roof panel oil-canning and fastener back-out. Thermal expansion over Fort Lauderdale’s daily temperature swings loosens exposed fasteners on PGT standing seam panels and causes the waviness homeowners call oil-canning. We retorque fasteners to manufacturer spec and replace any with stripped heads, then check the clip system for proper movement allowance.
• PGT hip and ridge cap failure on shingle roofs. Hip and ridge caps take the brunt of wind-driven rain and UV exposure. On PGT shingle roofs, the cap shingles often crack before the field shingles do. We replace cap shingles and reseat the ridge vent in one pass, matching color where the line is still produced and matching texture where it isn’t.
• PGT underlayment deterioration under tile in older sections. On PGT tile roofs from the early 2000s, the underlayment can degrade faster than the tile above it. We see this in Coral Ridge and Victoria Park remodels where tile was reused and underlayment was not. We pull the minimum number of tiles, replace the underlayment section, and reset the tile to match, rather than forcing a full reroof on a homeowner who doesn’t need one.

Our PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process

Every PGT job starts the same way: we look before we touch. Here’s how a typical repair goes from your first call to the final walkaround:

1. 1
   You call, we listen. You describe what you’re seeing-a stain on the ceiling, granules in the gutter, a tile that slid during the last blow. We ask about age, history, and any prior repairs.
2. 2
   On-site diagnostic. A background-checked, uniformed technician walks the roof, checks the attic if accessible, and documents what’s failing with photos. No charge for the estimate.
3. 3
   Parts decision on paper. OEM and quality aftermarket options side by side, with prices, so you see what you’re buying and why. No hidden line items later.
4. 4
   The repair. We do the work in one visit where possible, using materials matched to your roof’s profile and Fort Lauderdale’s coastal wind requirements.
5. 5
   Testing and cleanup. We water-test the repair where practical, confirm the area drains dry, and haul off debris and old material.
6. 6
   The written guarantee. Both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, plus our Done Right Promise covering the workmanship. If it is not right on paper, it will not be right on the wall.

What PGT Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Fort Lauderdale

PGT roofing repairs in Fort Lauderdale range widely depending on the failure, the roof’s pitch, and how far the damage has spread. Here are the common scenarios we quote:

What moves the price: roof pitch, one-story versus two-story access, tile profile availability, and whether the damage sits close to a valley or transition where water collects. Fort Lauderdale wind codes also require uplift-rated fastening on replacement sections, which costs a little more than inland work but keeps your roof legal and insured.
