This page is written for Pompano Beach homeowners who bought Mr-Glass custom or geometric windows and now need someone who actually understands how they’re built. Ed Winslow’s name is on our trucks and on every job we do, and he’s spent years running installations across Broward County - including shaped-window work in neighborhoods like Cypress Cove, where impact ratings and frame geometry get taken seriously.

How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

Mr-Glass builds some of the most distinctive custom shapes in the impact window market. That distinctiveness comes with specific failure patterns. Here’s what we see repeatedly in Pompano Beach homes:

• Radius-top seal separation on Mr-Glass Custom Arch units. The curved glass lamination and frame gasket on arch windows flexes more than a square unit under South Florida’s heat-and-humidity swings. Over time, the seal between the curved IGU and the frame channel breaks down first at the apex. Symptom: condensation you can’t wipe away, always starting at the top of the curve. We remove the sash, evaluate the IGU, and either replace the desiccant-laden edge seal with an OEM-grade butyl or replace the entire shaped IGU if argon has already vented. The fix holds because we re-shim the arch to correct any header settlement before re-bedding the glass.
• Geometric corner bind on Mr-Glass Trapezoid and Triangle units. Non-square windows concentrate stress at their sharpest corners. On Mr-Glass trapezoid units, the corner keys and screw bosses are the first things to crack - especially on large fixed units in Pompano Beach living rooms facing east, where morning sun heats one corner harder than the others. We see cracked frame corners and stuck corner screws on units only five to eight years old. Our fix is a corner-key rebuild with aluminum reinforcement plates behind the miter, then re-caulking with a UV-stable sealant rated for the salt air coming off the Atlantic.
• Hardware misalignment on Mr-Glass Architectural Series casements and awnings with shaped tops. The hinged hardware on a shaped sash has to carry more eccentric weight than a rectangle. On Mr-Glass Architectural Series units, the friction stays and hinge arms wear unevenly, which makes the sash drop a few millimeters and start dragging at the latch side. Homeowners tell us the window “never closed right from day one,” but the real cause is usually hinge wear combined with frame settling. We replace the hinge set with matched-load hardware, re-square the sash, and adjust the strike plate so the lock engages cleanly. It’s a ninety-minute repair we do several times a month across Pompano Beach.
• Weep-system blockage on Mr-Glass radius-bottom windows. Curved-bottom units need a functional weep path to shed water. Mr-Glass factory weeps are narrow, and Pompano Beach’s mix of fine sand, salt spray, and landscaping debris clogs them fast. The window starts holding water in the track, then the water wicks into the frame and stains the interior sill. We clear the weeps, flush the track, and when the design allows, open the weep slots slightly and add a debris shield so it doesn’t clog again in six months. This is one of the most preventable Mr-Glass failures we see, and the manufacturer documentation barely mentions it.
• Laminated glass delamination on Mr-Glass impact-rated custom shapes. On older Mr-Glass impact units with a laminated inner layer, we occasionally see edge delamination at the curved or angled portions of the lite - the laminate separates at the edge and shows as a milky border. South Florida heat accelerates it. The honest answer: delamination can’t be field-repaired. The lite gets replaced, and we handle the warranty evaluation for you. When it’s out of warranty, we source a replacement through our glass fabricator with the same structural rating and thickness - no downgrading the impact protection.

Our Mr-Glass Custom & Geometric Windows Process

1. 1
   Call and diagnosis. You call (904) 893-3309. Our own people answer, not a call center. We ask about the window shape, the symptom, and when you first noticed it. Then we schedule a visit at a time that works for you.
2. 2
   On-site inspection. Our background-checked technician shows up in a Winslow uniform. For Mr-Glass shaped units, we measure the frame deflection, check glass-to-frame clearances at every corner and curve, and test the hardware under load. We find the actual cause, not just the visible symptom.
3. 3
   Parts decision. We tell you straight: if the part is under warranty, we handle the warranty claim. If not, we price both OEM Mr-Glass parts where they’re still available and a quality aftermarket equivalent where OEM is discontinued or backordered. You choose with our recommendation, in plain English, with line-item pricing before we order anything.
4. 4
   The repair. We do the work properly - not a caulk-and-hope patch. For shaped units, that means re-shimming, re-bedding, and torqueing every fastener to the frame manufacturer’s spec, not guesswork.
5. 5
   Test and verify. We cycle the window, water-test the exterior seal, and check for square and smooth operation. You inspect it with us. If it’s not done right, we’re not done.
6. 6
   The 36500-Day Done Right Promise. Every job we do carries a century-long standard: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s Ed Winslow’s name on the work, and he takes that seriously.

What Mr-Glass Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Pompano Beach

Honest numbers, based on what we’ve billed across Pompano Beach over the past several years:

• Seal repair on a radius or arch top: $180-$340 per lite.
• Corner-key rebuild on a trapezoid or triangle: $220-$420 depending on frame size and access.
• Hinge and hardware replacement on a shaped casement or awning: $190-$380 per sash.
• Full IGU replacement on a custom Mr-Glass shape: $400-$900 depending on the lite’s radius, lamination, and impact rating.
• Delaminated impact lite replacement: $550-$1,100 plus fabrication lead time for unusual shapes.

What moves the price: the sharpness of the radius, whether the glass is laminated impact-rated, whether the frame needs correction, and whether the lite is a true custom profile or a standard Mr-Glass catalog shape. We give written line-item quotes before work starts, and the price on the quote is the price on the invoice. No change orders, no surprises.

Why Pompano Beach Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for Mr-Glass Work

A Mr-Glass custom window is not a commodity. Neither is the person who fixes it. We’ve been serving Broward County since 2011, and Ed Winslow grew up in Miami and got his start at Miami Dade College’s Building Construction Technology program. He learned early that a poorly sealed window isn’t an eyesore in South Florida - it’s a liability. That’s why we treat every Mr-Glass shaped window as a structural component, not a pane of glass in a hole.

When the fix on a Mr-Glass unit doesn’t make financial sense, we’re honest about that too - and because we’re also authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, we can show you replacement options that hold up to Pompano Beach salt air and hurricane season. You’ll talk to people who know Mr-Glass geometry, not a phone menu. And every job, from a $180 seal to a full replacement, carries the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. My name is on it, so it has to be right.
