CGI Window Replacement in Delray Beach: What to Know First

CGI window replacement in Delray Beach typically runs $900 to $2,800 per opening depending on the series, glass package, and whether you need full-frame or insert replacement. Most single-window replacements we schedule are completed in one visit, measured on the first trip and installed on the second once the glass is cut to spec. We are an independent CGI service provider, not a factory arm, which means we answer to you and the building code, not a sales quota.

Call (561) 940-2917

This page is written for homeowners who bought CGI windows years ago and now have a unit that fogged, a sash that drags, or a frame that leaks at the first summer storm. If that sounds familiar, call (561) 940-2917 and a live person will answer, day or night.

How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Seal failure on CGI Estate Collection insulated units. The Estate line used a dual-seal system that held up well for the first decade but starts showing fog between the panes once the outer butyl seal degrades under Delray Beach’s UV load. Homeowners see condensation that never wipes off. The fix is glass replacement with a fresh insulated unit, not a whole new window, unless the sash frame itself has warped.
• Roller wear on CGI Sentry sliding doors and windows. The Sentry series carriers were built for heavy impact glass, which means when the rollers finally go, the sash doesn’t glide, it grinds. You’ll feel it in the track before you see it. We replace the carrier assembly with matched hardware and realign the sash so the lock engages without forcing it.
• Weep hole clogging on CGI Tribute series windows. The Tribute line has narrow weep channels at the sill that Delray’s wind-driven rain and salt air load with grit fast. When those channels clog, water backs up into the track and eventually the wall cavity. We clear the weeps, check the sill slope, and replace the weatherstripping so the window drains the way the manufacturer intended.
• Frame-to-wall seal breakdown on full-frame CGI installs from the early 2000s. The windows themselves are often fine. The perimeter seal is not. We pull the interior trim, re-flash the opening with modern tape and sealant, and reset the window. It is a full-frame replacement in practice, but we save the sash and glass when they still test clean.
• Hardware corrosion on CGI Estate and Tribute casements near the ocean. Homes east of Federal Highway get a steady diet of salt mist. The multipoint lock mechanisms on CGI casements are robust, but the exposed screws and keeper plates are not always stainless. We replace corroded hardware with marine-grade components and lubricate the gearbox so the crank doesn’t bind in July humidity.

Our CGI Window Replacement Process

1. 1
   We answer the phone. A live person takes your call, asks what you’re seeing, and we schedule a time. No callback forms, no regional dispatch center.
2. 2
   We measure twice and diagnose the failure. Dale Kessler reads a rough opening the way some people read a room. We identify whether the sash, the glass, the frame, or the seal failed, and we tell you what we’d do.
3. 3
   We put options on paper. If we’re replacing the full unit, we quote CGI alongside comparable Andersen, Pella, or PGT lines so you see the price difference side by side. For repairs, we tell you which parts will be OEM and which are quality aftermarket, and why.
4. 4
   We do the work in one visit. Most replacements are measured, ordered, and installed without a third appointment. The technician arrives uniformed and background-checked, lays drop cloths, and works clean.
5. 5
   We test before we leave. We cycle the sash, check the locks, run water on the sill, and verify the seal. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
6. 6
   You get both warranty layers in writing. Manufacturer warranty registered, workmanship guaranteed for 90 days under the Done Right Promise. No fine print that covers neither.

What CGI Window Replacement Costs in Delray Beach

Here is what we see on real Delray Beach jobs as of 2025:

• Glass-only replacement (seal failure, fogged unit): $350 to $700 per pane, depending on glass package and Low-E coating.
• Insert replacement (new sash, existing frame stays): $600 to $1,400 per window.
• Full-frame replacement (frame and sash, new flashing): $1,200 to $2,800 per opening for CGI impact-rated units.
• Hardware and roller rebuild (Sentry slider, Estate casement): $180 to $450 per unit.

What moves the price: glass package (clear vs. Low-E vs. impact-laminated), opening size, whether the frame is rotted or square, and code requirements for your zone. We quote fixed prices, in writing, before work starts. Call (561) 940-2917 and we’ll give you an exact number, not a range that drifts when the crew shows up.

Why Delray Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI Work

We’ve served local communities since 2008, and Dale Kessler grew up in the Lake Ida neighborhood. This is not a franchise playbook. When we work on a CGI window, we treat the house like it belongs to someone who plans to live in it for another twenty years, because the customer usually does.

Our technicians know CGI’s quirks: the weep channels on the Tribute line, the carrier geometry on Sentry sliders, the seal stack on Estate insulated units. When a CGI part makes sense, we use it. When it does not, we tell you plainly and offer an alternative that will outlast the original. And because we install Andersen, Pella, and PGT as well, we can give you a real comparison instead of a sales pitch.

Every job is backed by the Done Right Promise. Both warranty layers are registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. If something is not right, we come back and make it right. No arguing, no paperwork fight. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
