This page is for homeowners who already have a Mr-Glass roof or are considering one, and who want to know how the material actually holds up in South Florida’s salt air, humidity, and storm seasons. We’ll walk you through the failure patterns we see on Mr-Glass roofs, what we do about them, and what it should cost.
How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Mr-Glass builds a solid roofing product line, but every manufacturer has weak points that show up in specific climates. Palm Beach is unforgiving on roofing, and after years of seeing these systems up close, we’ve learned where the problems concentrate.
Five Mr-Glass Roofing Problems We See Most in Palm Beach
- Concrete tile spalling along the cap line break. Mr-Glass concrete roof tile in Palm Beach gets hammered by the summer thunderstorms rolling off the Atlantic, and we regularly see the top, weather-exposed layer of tile start to flake and chip along the ridge cap cuts. This isn’t just cosmetic, once the tile is compromised, water migrates into the underlayment seams. Our fix is selective tile replacement with matched profile and color, then re-locking the cap segments with proper fastener spacing so the repair blends in.
- Asphalt shingle granule loss along south-facing roof planes. On Mr-Glass shingle installs, the south and southwest roof planes in Palm Beach take the brunt of UV exposure year round. We see granule loss and curling shingle edges on those planes two to three years before the rest of the roof shows wear. We flag the underperforming slope, replace the affected courses rather than pushing a full roof, and re-nail in the wind-rated pattern that Palm Beach code requires.
- Metal panel fastener back-out on Mr-Glass standing seam runs. Thermal expansion is a fact of life for metal roofs in South Florida. On Mr-Glass standing seam profiles, we commonly find fasteners that have backed out a few millimeters over time, loosening the panel just enough to allow capillary water entry around the seam. The fix is straightforward: we remove the affected fasteners, check the clip, replace any stripped screws with properly sized replacement fasteners, and reseat the panel seam. Left alone, this one creates interior ceiling stains that are easy to mistake for a plumbing leak.
- Underlayment saturation under tile field sections. This is a Palm Beach coastal reality, especially on older Mr-Glass tile installs near the Intracoastal. The tile looks fine from the curb, but if the original underlayment wasn’t a reinforced synthetic or was installed with the wrong lap detail, years of driving rain and condensation break it down. By the time you see a damp spot on your ceiling, the tile has already failed. We lift the affected tile, cut out the dead underlayment, and replace it with an approved high temp resistant synthetic product, then relay the tile and check the mortar cap lines.
- Flashing failures at Mr-Glass roof-to-wall transitions. Every roof has a weak point where vertical walls meet the shingles or tile. On Mr-Glass systems we inspect in Palm Beach, the original step flashing at headwalls and dormer transitions is frequently the first thing to go, especially in the salt air zones east of US 1. We remove the old flashing, install new step and counter flashing with proper kickout detail at the base, and reseal the transition. This one problem accounts for a surprising share of “mystery leaks” in Mr-Glass roofs we assess.
If you notice any of these symptoms on your roof, call us at (561) 831-7863. We’ll diagnose it before you’re staring at ceiling stains.
Our Mr-Glass Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process
Here’s how a Mr-Glass repair or replacement with us actually goes, from the first call to the last nail.
- 1
We pick up the phone. You call (561) 831-7863 and talk to a live person, not a voicemail tree. We’ll ask what’s happening, what you’ve noticed, and how long it’s been going on.
- 2
We inspect the roof with you. We walk the roof and the attic passage area if accessible, and we photograph everything worth noting. Our technicians wear uniforms and are background-checked, so you know exactly who’s on your roof.
- 3
We write a line item estimate. You get a written estimate detailing the scope, parts, labor, and materials. If you have a written estimate from someone else, bring it to us. We’ll give you a free second opinion, and if your repair is over $200, we offer $40 off.
- 4
We decide on parts. For Mr-Glass tile and shingle repairs, we’ll use the right replacement profile and color match, with OEM parts where warranty preservation matters and quality aftermarket where it makes practical sense. We’ll tell you which we recommend and why.
- 5
We complete the work and clean up. Repairs are done on schedule, with no change orders unless the scope genuinely changes. We haul away debris, sweep the site, and walk you through what we fixed.
- 6
We back it with our 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Ed Winslow’s name is on this company and on every job we send out.

FAQs
Yes, we work with Mr-Glass warranty claims as an independent service provider. We’re not authorized by Mr-Glass, but we handle the diagnostic and repair work and help you document the issue so your claim moves forward correctly. Call us at (561) 831-7863 and we’ll photograph the problem and write it up in the language the warranty department expects to see.
Yes, we match Mr-Glass tile color and profile through suppliers that stock the current Mr-Glass profiles, and we’ll show you samples before we commit to the repair. For older discontinued Mr-Glass tile colors, we’ll track down matching or near matching tile so your roof still looks uniform from the curb.
Most repair calls we take in Palm Beach get scheduled within one to two business days, and active leaks get prioritized. Call (561) 831-7863 and a live person will schedule the appointment right then. No callback in 48 hours, no online portal, no unanswered phone.
If the leak is isolated to flashing, a few tiles, or a small valley section, repair is the right call and we’ll tell you that. If the underlayment is saturated across multiple roof planes or the shingle granule loss has moved past surface wear, replacement is the smarter long term investment in a Palm Beach home that faces UV and storm exposure every single year. We’ll show you the evidence either way, and the free estimate is yours no matter what.
No, our prices are fixed once you approve the written estimate. The only exception is if we open up a section and find hidden damage that requires additional work, and we’ll stop and show you exactly what we found before doing anything beyond the original scope. You’ll never get a surprise line item on the final invoice.
