Why West Palm Beach Homeowners Choose CGI Construction
Bradford Remodeling Co West Palm Beach provides independent CGI construction repair and installation across West Palm Beach, from impact window replacement to full roof systems. We service and install CGI Sentinel Series, Estate Collection, and Classic Series impact windows, plus CGI 900 Series sliding glass doors, using genuine replacement parts whenever the existing frame is still sound. We’re an independent contractor, not a factory-authorized service center, which means we quote the repair or replacement that’s actually right for your home, not the one a manufacturer program requires. Call (728) 203-9809 to schedule a free estimate.
In a coastal market like West Palm Beach, CGI products face conditions most manufacturers only test for in a lab. Salt spray off the Atlantic, hurricane-driven rain, and relentless UV take a toll on frames, seals, and hardware in ways a showroom brochure never mentions. Our crews have pulled apart enough CGI windows and doors in this city to know exactly where they fail, why they fail, and what it costs to put them right. That’s the value of working with a general contractor who sees this product in the field every week.
Why Trust Bradford Remodeling Co West Palm Beach for Your CGI Construction?
Our crews know CGI products at the component level. When a CGI Sentinel Series window won’t close flush or a 900 Series slider grinds on its track, we don’t guess. We diagnose. We’ve replaced IGUs (insulated glass units), rebuilt hinge tracks, re-flashed openings, and swapped out corroded weep hole covers on CGI product across West Palm Beach, from El Cid Mediterranean Revival homes to mid-century concrete block ranches in Flamingo Park. That field experience means we carry the right parts, we recognize the failure patterns, and we don’t pad the invoice with unnecessary work.
Curtis Lane, our owner, learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has spent close to three decades running crews on everything from slab foundations to gut renovations. He’s been managing jobs in West Palm Beach long enough to know that a CGI window installed on the Intracoastal side of Flagler Drive ages differently than the same window three miles inland. Salt air, high water table, and the region’s specific inspection timelines are part of how he scopes every job. Straight number, full scope, no surprises after the invoice.
Every CGI project we take on follows The Garrison Standard: a written price before work starts, background-checked and uniformed technicians on site, and a signed 365-Day Done Right Promise in your hand when the job closes. If the repair or install fails within that full year, we return and correct it at no charge. That’s the commitment, and it’s in writing every time.

Common CGI Construction Problems We Fix in West Palm Beach
- Frame corrosion at weep holes and bottom corners. On older CGI aluminum windows within two miles of the Intracoastal, salt spray sits in the drainage channels and eats at the metal. We see this most often on homes in El Cid and along Flagler Drive, where the frames look fine from the street but pitting has already started at the corners. Surface corrosion responds to treatment and sealing. Deep pitting usually means the frame integrity is compromised and replacement is the honest call.
- Insulated glass unit (IGU) seal failure. East-facing CGI windows in West Palm Beach take direct morning sun followed by afternoon thunderstorms, and after 8 to 12 years, that thermal cycling starts breaking down the seals. The result is permanent fog between the panes. This isn’t something you clean. The IGU has failed, and the fix is a replacement glass pack matched to the original frame.
- Roller and track wear on CGI 900 Series sliders. Hurricane-driven sand gets into the track, and over time those rollers grind down. Panels start to jump, bind, or require real muscle to move. We replace rollers and realign tracks when the damage is isolated. If the track itself shows deep pitting or warping, the smart repair is a new sliding glass door unit.
- Cracking or lifting interior wood trim. Condensation cycling in older block homes without proper sill flashing causes the trim around CGI windows to swell, crack, and pull away. We address this at the source, re-flashing the opening and rebuilding the jamb, rather than just caulking over the symptom. In Flamingo Park and other 1950s neighborhoods, this is a recurring issue tied to the original construction approach.
- Hardware failure from salt exposure. Hinge tracks, locking pins, and weatherstripping on older CGI casement and awning windows corrode faster near the coast. We stock and install genuine CGI replacement hardware so the window operates as designed. Stainless hardware upgrades are an option that makes sense within a few miles of the water.
On a 1950s ranch off Dixie Highway, our crew pulled two CGI Estate Collection casement windows that would not latch after years of salt corrosion ate the hinge tracks. We rebuilt the openings with new treated jamb extensions, installed fresh OEM hinge tracks and stainless hardware, and matched the interior trim profile so the only sign of work was glass that actually closed. The homeowner later had us replace a 900 Series sliding glass door with a new impact-rated unit when the old track showed deep pitting.
CGI Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach
We use genuine CGI replacement parts whenever the existing frame is still square and the corrosion is only surface-level. That means OEM glass packs, rollers, weatherstripping, and hardware matched to your original installation. For units with deep pitting, bent frames, or seal failure across multiple panes, we recommend full replacement and quote both OEM and quality aftermarket alternatives that meet Miami-Dade code. The decision comes down to what’s actually wrong, not what’s easier to sell.
Our CGI service in West Palm Beach keeps common components on hand: rollers and track assemblies for 900 Series sliders, replacement weatherstripping for Sentinel and Estate Collection frames, and stainless hinge hardware for casement windows near the coast. That local inventory shortens turnaround for the repairs we do most often. For full window or door replacements, we order directly from our supply chain and schedule installation around the permit timeline. Call (728) 203-9809 and we’ll tell you up front whether your unit is a repair or a replacement.
Our CGI Service Process – Step by Step
- 1
Diagnosis. We inspect the unit, identify the failure mode (seal, frame corrosion, hardware wear, or structural), and give you a written scope with a fixed price. No numbers that move at the door.
- 2
Repair or install. For repairs, we match OEM parts to the original CGI model and replace only what’s failed. For installs, we follow Florida Building Code impact requirements, including the Miami-Dade protocols that apply to new construction and replacement openings in West Palm Beach.
- 3
Test and verify. Every window gets operated through its full range. Every door gets aligned and roll-tested. We check drainage paths and verify proper latching before we call the job done.
- 4
Warranty documentation. You get a signed written guarantee, our 365-Day Done Right Promise, on completion. If the work fails inside that year, we come back and correct it at no charge.

AfterWe Also Service These Brands
While CGI is a core part of our West Palm Beach work, we’re a multi-brand contractor. We also install and service KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone surfaces, and Kohler fixtures, so a single project doesn’t require juggling three separate crews. When it makes sense to mix brands across a remodel, we’ll quote the full scope in one written price.
CGI Construction Pricing in West Palm Beach
| Service | Price Range in West Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000 – $25,000 |
| Window Replacement | $4,500 – $15,000 |
| Roof Replacement | $8,000 – $20,000 |
These are real ranges for West Palm Beach, not bait numbers. A single direct-set impact window replacement might land at the low end of the window replacement range. A whole-home impact window and door package with CGI Sentinel Series product in a larger home is going to push toward the top of the CGI in Palm Beach Gardens impact installation range. Roof replacement varies by square footage, decking condition, and whether you’re going with standard architectural shingles or a reinforced system. You get a written price before any work starts, every time. Call (728) 203-9809 for an exact quote on your specific scope.
FAQs – CGI Construction Service in West Palm Beach
Fog between the panes means the insulated glass unit (IGU) seal has failed. The frame is often still perfectly good. We replace the glass pack alone in that case, not the whole window, and the original CGI frame stays in place. This is a common repair on east-facing CGI windows in West Palm Beach after 8 to 12 years of thermal cycling. Call (728) 203-9809 for an exact quote.
Salt air corrodes hinge tracks, rollers, and locking hardware on older CGI windows within a couple miles of the Intracoastal. Drainage channels fill with salt spray, metal pits, and the moving parts bind. We replace the hardware with OEM components, and in marine-exposed locations we recommend stainless as an upgrade. The fix is specific and measurable, not a vague “lubrication” service.
Yes. Every new CGI window and door installation we perform in West Palm Beach is scoped to current Florida Building Code impact requirements, including the Miami-Dade protocols that apply to replacement openings in this region. Permits are pulled, inspections are scheduled, and the work is documented. If you’re in a historic district like El Cid, we’ll also address any local preservation requirements that affect window selection.
Glass-only replacement keeps the existing frame and replaces the failed insulated glass unit with a new impact-rated pack matched to your original CGI series. It’s cheaper, faster, and correct when the frame is square and corrosion is only cosmetic. Full window replacement is necessary when the frame has deep pitting, bent corners, or structural compromise. We’ll tell you which one you actually need, and quote both if either would be viable.
Yes. We match new CGI units to your existing series and glass package, including frame finish and grid pattern, so a partial replacement doesn’t stand out. If your original series is no longer current production, we’ll find the closest compatible CGI product or an alternative that meets code and matches visually. Call (728) 203-9809 with your existing window details and we’ll scope it from there.
No. We are an independent CGI service provider in West Palm Beach. We are not part of any factory authorization program. That means we quote the repair or replacement that’s right for your home, without working around manufacturer program rules. We use genuine CGI parts whenever the repair calls for them, and we stand behind the work with our own written 365-Day Done Right Promise.
