Mr-Glass Roofing: The Fort Lauderdale Owner’s Guide

Mr-Glass roofing repair in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $400-$1,800 installed, depending on whether we’re replacing a membrane section, flashing assembly, or full panel. We stock common Mr-Glass-compatible clips, gaskets, and membrane sections on our Fort Lauderdale trucks, and most part replacements are completed in a single visit. Most owners discover a problem after a hard rain, when water shows up at a seam or corner that used to stay dry.

Which Mr-Glass Models This Applies To

Mr-Glass has produced several roofing system lines over the years, and the part you need depends on the series stamped on your original installation label, usually found on the underside of a panel edge or on a metal tag near the ridge. The SR-100 and SR-200 series share a 2-inch standing seam profile but use different clip spacing, 12 inches versus 16 inches on center. The older MRG-50 line, common on Fort Lauderdale homes built between 2005 and 2015, uses a proprietary bulb-seam gasket that isn’t cross-compatible with newer profiles. We’ve also seen imported MRG-50 panels with metric spacing, a gotcha that only shows up when the new clip doesn’t seat flush.

For OEM versus aftermarket on Mr-Glass, we source direct-fit gaskets and clips from the same supplier that fabricates Mr-Glass’s hardware, which meets the original spec without the OEM markup. On membrane sections, we use a 60-mil TPO equivalent, heat-welded to factory spec, because Mr-Glass no longer stocks membrane rolls for discontinued lines. We measure twice, write it down, then say it once, so the quote matches what arrives on the truck.

Signs Your Mr-Glass Roofing Is Failing

• Water at panel seams after storms. The butyl tape or gasket beneath the seam cap has dried out, which happens faster in Fort Lauderdale’s UV exposure than the manufacturer rates for. The cap looks fine from the ground, but the seal underneath has turned to dust.
• Panel oil-canning or waviness. Thermal expansion has worked the clips loose, usually because the original installer used the wrong clip alloy for coastal salt air. The panel can move, and once it starts, the fatigue cycle accelerates.
• Rust streaks from fasteners or clips. The clip coating has failed, a common issue on MRG-50 hardware where the zinc layer was thinner than later specs. Rust is never cosmetic on a roof, it’s a timeline.
• Lifted or missing ridge caps. The foam closure strip has degraded, letting wind drive rain uphill. In Fort Lauderdale, we see this after three to four years on south-facing ridges, sooner if trees drop debris that holds moisture.
• Interior stains near valleys or penetrations. The flashing boot or valley pan has separated from the panel, often because the original sealant was silicone rather than the specified urethane. Silicone doesn’t bond to painted metal long-term.

Replacement Cost & What’s Included

Mr-Glass roofing repair in Fort Lauderdale falls within our standard roof repair range of $400-$1,800. A gasket-and-clip refresh on a 20-foot seam runs toward the lower end. Panel replacement with matching finish, or ridge-cap rebuild with new closure strips, pushes toward the higher end. Full membrane section replacement on an older MRG-50 system, including substrate inspection and re-flashing, can exceed this range, and we’ll tell you before we start.

Every quote is a flat written price with line-item parts and labor, delivered before work begins. Under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, that’s non-negotiable. The work carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise, and you get a documented photo record of the condition we found and what we did, included as standard. We pull permits when the scope requires it, and inspections pass.

DIY or Call Us?

An owner can safely walk the roof for visual checks if it’s low-slope and dry, but we don’t recommend it on pitches above 6:12 or in any wind. What you can do: note the series label location, measure the seam height with a tape from the ladder, and photograph any rust streaks or lifted edges. What goes wrong fast: stepping on a wet panel, using the wrong sealant that voids the finish warranty, or forcing a clip that doesn’t fit and creasing the panel. The clips are under spring tension, and a slipped tool will scar the finish or worse. For the actual repair, we bring the matched parts, the portable seamer if needed, and the liability coverage.
