Bradford Remodeling Co West Palm Beach, a General Contractor - West Palm Beach, provides independent CWS window, door, and roof service across the area, and we’re one of the few crews here that treats salt corrosion and hurricane-code compliance as baseline requirements rather than upsells. If you own a West Palm Beach home with CWS Grand Estate impact windows, Heritage entry doors, or a roof that’s been through a few named storms, call (728) 203-9809. We’ll give you a straight diagnosis, a written price, and a full-scope plan before any tool leaves the truck.
Why West Palm Beach Residents Choose Us for CWS Service
Curtis Lane, our owner, learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has spent nearly three decades running crews on everything from slab foundations to full gut renovations. He’s been managing jobs in West Palm Beach for years, including window replacement work along the Northwood Village corridor, and he knows the local inspection timelines and hurricane-strapping requirements the way most people know their own kitchen layout. That matters when you’re dealing with CWS products, because the failure modes here are different. Salt-laden ocean air eats window frame corners. UV exposure breaks down factory sealants faster than the manufacturer’s generic warranty assumes. And West Palm Beach’s high water table corrodes the galvanized mounting hardware that was standard on mid-century CWS installations. We account for all of it, on every job, in writing.
We’re an independent CWS service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized shop. That independence means we recommend what the building actually needs, not what a corporate program tells us to push. When CWS OEM parts are available, we use them. When a full replacement is the honest call, we say so plainly and show you why. Our crews are background-checked, uniformed, and held to The Garrison Standard: written pricing, documented scope, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise that puts the guarantee in your hand before the job closes out.

Common CWS Construction Problems We Solve in West Palm Beach
- Frame corner corrosion on oceanfront and intracoastal condos. Salt air in West Palm Beach accelerates pitting on CWS aluminum frame corners and locking hardware. On units within a few blocks of the Intracoastal, we regularly see locks that seize and corners that develop white oxidation blooms within eight to ten years of installation. We remove the corrosion, replace the hardware with OEM parts, and seal the frame to slow the next cycle.
- Factory sealant failure from UV and thermal cycling. Original CWS sealants dry out under South Florida sun and crack as frames expand and contract through hot days and heavy-rain months. That shows up as air leaks, water staining around the interior trim, and higher cooling bills. We strip the failed sealant, clean the substrate, and re-apply a marine-grade product rated for coastal exposure.
- Stress fractures in CWS impact-rated sashes after hurricanes. The glass may hold, but the corners take the load. After a named storm, we inspect for laminate separation and hairline cracks at the sash corners of CWS Grand Estate and 7500 Series windows. If the frame is sound, we replace the sash. If the frame has twisted, replacement is the only honest answer.
- Binding aluminum frames in 1950s single-pane CWS windows. Original CWS single-pane windows in mid-century concrete block homes warp and bind as the aluminum fatigues and the block settles. Homeowners tell us they can barely open the window after a humid summer. We replace balances, realign tracks where possible, and when the frame itself is done, we move to impact-rated replacement without changing the home’s exterior character.
- Rusted galvanized window pans and anchors in Flamingo Park and similar neighborhoods. This one hides. The mounting hardware behind the frame rots through from salt-heavy soil moisture, and the water wicks into the concrete block around the opening. Visual inspection from the interior misses it. We find it by pulling the trim and checking the pan. More on this below.
CWS Service in West Palm Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
West Palm Beach’s high water table and salt intrusion corrode the galvanized window pans and anchors used in CWS installations in 1950s neighborhoods like Flamingo Park, leading to hidden rot around the frame that typical visual inspections miss. That’s not a paragraph from a manufacturer’s brochure. It’s what we find when we pull the interior casing on a block home and see rust stains bleeding through the stucco. The pan that was supposed to drain water away from the opening has instead become a rust shelf, holding moisture against the block and quietly eating the substrate behind the frame.
Our crew replaced eight corroded CWS 7500 casement windows in a 1950s concrete block home in Flamingo Park. The original galvanized mounting pans had rusted through from decades of salt-heavy soil moisture, allowing water to wick into the block. We removed the old sashes, installed new pan flashing, and set factory-fresh CWS casements, then sealed the exterior with a marine-grade sealant rated for 25 years. That job is the reason we now check the pan on every pre-1990 CWS window in West Palm Beach before we quote a single dollar. A window can look fine from the driveway and be structurally compromised behind the trim.
CWS Models & Products We Service in West Palm Beach
We work on the CWS Grand Estate Series impact windows, CWS 7000 Series single-hung windows, CWS 7500 Series casement windows, and the CWS Heritage Collection entry doors. We stock common CWS OEM parts locally: sash balances, weatherstripping, locks, and laminated glass for the popular product lines. When CWS OEM parts are available, we use them to preserve the original storm ratings and factory look. We recommend replacement only when the frame or glass has reached the end of its structural life. Repair often adds years of service at a fraction of replacement cost, and we’ll show you the numbers for both options before you decide. For more on the brand itself, see our CWS sales & service page.

FAQs – CWS Construction in West Palm Beach
Yes. Salt-laden air and the high water table in West Palm Beach corrode aluminum frames, locks, and galvanized mounting hardware faster than inland Florida locations. We use marine-grade sealants and stainless or coated anchors on every CWS window we service here, and we check the pan and flashing even when the window itself looks sound. Call (728) 203-9809 and we’ll inspect your existing installation before you spend a dollar on repairs.
In most cases, yes. If the glass is intact and the frame is square, we replace the sash, balance, and hardware with CWS OEM parts and reseal the opening. If the frame has twisted from the storm load, replacement is the only option that preserves the impact rating. We’ll show you the difference on site before you decide.
We match the existing sightlines and exterior profiles when we perform West Palm Beach Kitchen Remodeling or replace CWS windows in El Cid’s Mediterranean Revival homes, and we pull permits and coordinate with the city’s preservation review process where required. Many of these homes still have original windows that are past repair, but the exterior appearance is protected. We use CWS products that hold the same outer profile as the originals while bringing the glazing up to current impact standards.
Yes. For mid-century concrete block homes in West Palm Beach, we use CWS impact-rated sashes sized to the original openings and finish the exterior to match the existing frame profile. The look changes only if you want it to. The storm protection and sealant work are all hidden or factory-finished.
We do. Storm and flashing repairs run $400 – $1800 for typical West Palm Beach CWS roof damage, including loose fasteners, lifted flashing, and small puncture repairs where the deck is sound. If the roof is past repair, we’ll quote a full replacement with a written line-item price. Call (728) 203-9809 for a free estimate.
