CGI Roof Replacement & Installation in Hollywood: What to Know First

CGI roof replacement and installation in Hollywood typically runs $900 to $2,800 per opening depending on the CGI series, size, and whether the frame needs reframing after years of salt air and storm cycles. We’re an independent CGI service provider, not manufacturer-affiliated, which means we quote the work honestly and stand behind it with our Done Right Promise. Most CGI roof jobs wrap in one visit. If you’ve got a CGI roof unit that’s binding, leaking, or fogging after years of service, call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll measure it before we ever talk price.

How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

CGI builds a stout product, but decades of Atlantic salt, humidity, and storm-driven rain in Hollywood expose weaknesses in any window line. Here’s what we see on the roof units specifically and what we do about it.

• CGI Estate Collection roof units with failed thermal seals. The Estate series uses dual-pane laminated glass, and when the seal fails you get fog between the panes that never wipes clean. In Hollywood, this happens faster near the coast because the constant salt accelerates seal breakdown. We replace the insulated glass unit and verify the frame is still square before setting the new glass. A seal failed once means we check the opening twice.
• CGI Sentry series with corroded locking hardware. Sentry roof models use a multi-point lock that seizes when salt corrosion builds in the channel. The symptom is a handle that turns but doesn’t fully engage, or a roof unit that won’t stay locked in the closed position. We replace the hardware with factory-spec parts and clean the channel, then test the lock three times before we leave.
• CGI Estate Heritage roof windows with bowed frames from storm pressure. After a direct hit or near-miss, we see frames that are a sixteenth or an eighth out of square. The unit still closes but the weatherstripping doesn’t seat fully, and you get a whistle on windy days. We reframe the rough opening as needed, reset the unit square, and re-flash the perimeter. Measure it right, set it square, and the paperwork takes care of itself.
• CGI roof units with original glazing that’s delaminating. Laminated glass from CGI holds up well, but a unit twenty years old or older can start to delaminate at the edges, especially on roof applications where heat builds. You’ll see cloudy patches near the frame. We replace the glass with a current CGI-spec laminated panel rather than a cheaper monolithic substitute that changes the impact rating.
• CGI roof installations with flashing failures around the curb. This one is not CGI’s fault usually. A bad original installation or just years of Hollywood rain finds a path in at the flashing, and the leak shows up on the ceiling first. We pull the unit, inspect the curb, re-flash with proper lap sequence, and set the unit back. The window was never the problem, but we fix both the window and the opening it sits in.

Our CGI Roof Replacement & Installation Process

Here’s how a CGI roof job goes from first call to cleanup, the way we’ve done it for years.

1. 1
   Call and measure. You call (863) 334-2933. We schedule a time to come out, measure the rough opening and the existing unit, and look at the curb and flashing. No quote over the phone without eyes on the opening.
2. 2
   Parts decision. We identify your CGI series and determine whether we use an OEM CGI part or a factory-spec equivalent. Some hardware is only available through CGI distribution. Glass can often be sourced through certified suppliers. We tell you which is which and why it matters for your warranty.
3. 3
   Written quote. You get a line-item quote on paper with the CGI series model, part numbers, and labor separated. No surprise line items later.
4. 4
   Removal and prep. We pull the old unit, inspect the curb and rough opening, and repair any wood or metal that needs it before the new unit goes in.
5. 5
   Set, seal, and flash. The new or rebuilt unit goes in square, the flashing is lapped correctly, and the perimeter is sealed against water intrusion.
6. 6
   Test and register. We open, close, lock, and check the seal three times. We register any warranty coverage in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. If it’s not done right, the Done Right Promise covers the fix with no paperwork fights.

What CGI Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Hollywood

Here’s what we see on CGI roof work in Hollywood, using current market pricing for independent installers.

Price moves on three things: the CGI series you own, whether the curb and rough opening need reframing, and access to your roof. A second-story roof with limited access costs more than a single-story easy reach. We don’t pad the price, and we don’t cut corners on flashing or sealing to make the number prettier. Call (863) 334-2933 for a free estimate and we’ll put numbers on paper.

Why Hollywood Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI Work

Dale Kessler grew up in the Liberia neighborhood of Hollywood, where his father spent weekends resealing jalousie frames against whatever the Atlantic decided to throw at them. He’s been setting and troubleshooting windows and doors in South Broward for close to three decades, and the work he’s known for is impact-rated installations that pass reinspection without a callback. That matters when you own CGI and want the roof unit done once.

We’re also an independent installer for PGT, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, so if the time comes to replace rather than repair and you want to see what else is out there, we quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper. You see exactly what you’re buying and what it costs, with both warranty layers registered in writing before we leave.

A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a recording, not a callback form. If you call about your CGI roof unit, you’ll get a straight answer from a person who knows what a curb mount is.
