CGI Windows & Doors in Wellington, FL | Winslow Windows & Doors
Need Impact Windows in Wellington or doors serviced? We handle independent CGI repair, parts replacement, and full window and door service across the village, from the 1980s CBS tract homes near Wellington Trace to the equestrian estates off South Shore Boulevard. There’s one thing that makes our CGI work here different from any neighboring city: we’re set up to service oversized impact-rated openings, barn entries, and equipment-bay doors that standard residential crews in Royal Palm Beach or Loxahatchee simply don’t see every week. Ed Winslow has been doing this work since 2011, and he’s the guy residents call when a CGI sash won’t hold or a slider starts grinding. Call (561) 660-9539 for a free estimate, and you’ll talk to a live person, not a recording.
Why Wellington Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We’re an independent CGI service provider, which means we aren’t boxed in by manufacturer constraints. That matters when a discontinued CGI balance or a hard-to-source impact sash is holding up a repair on a Wellington home. We’ll find the right part, or we’ll fit a quality aftermarket equivalent and tell you exactly what we’re doing and why.
Ed Winslow grew up in Northwood Hills, learned the trade through Palm Beach State College’s building construction program, and spent nearly two decades sealing up drafty doors and replacing failed glass across Palm Beach County. When a CGI window fogs up in Wellington’s humidity, Ed’s seen it a hundred times. When a sliding door on an equipment bay binds from grit, he’s fixed that too. We know which CGI series holds up on a 1990s tract home and which one belongs on a polo estate. CGI sales & service is core to what we do, not a sideline.
Every technician who arrives at your Wellington home is background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before they ring the bell. And every job, from a balance replacement to our Window Installation in Wellington, carries the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s Ed’s word, and his name’s on the truck.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Wellington
- Fogging between panes in early CGI insulated glass units. The 1990s-era CGI windows on many original Wellington tract homes are now showing seal failure. Wellington’s daily temperature swings and year-round humidity push moisture into those failed seals faster than anywhere inland. We replace the insulated glass unit and restore the thermal barrier without pulling the whole frame.
- Failed lift mechanisms and worn balances in CGI single hung windows. We see this constantly on the pre-impact CBS homes built in Wellington’s original subdivisions. The upper sash won’t stay open, or it drops with a bang. We rebuild the balance system with genuine CGI parts where available, so the sash operates like it did when the home was built.
- Roller track deformation and binding in CGI sliding doors. On equestrian estate equipment bays and barn entries, repeated heavy use and fine grit from the paddocks work their way into the track. The door starts to grind and stick. We clean, realign, and replace deformed rollers and track sections before the door seizes entirely.
- Deteriorating exterior gaskets and sealant around CGI frame corners. Wellington’s UV intensity is brutal on rubber glazing seals and corner sealant. Once those gaskets harden and crack, summer storms drive water straight into the frame. We remove the old material and re-seal with products rated for Palm Beach County’s climate.
- Big-box replacement parts that don’t meet Florida Product Approval. We’ve been called to more than one Wellington home where a homeowner ordered a replacement sash or panel online, only to find it lacks the required wind-load certification. We source the correct impact-rated CGI component and dispose of the non-compliant one.
CGI Service in Wellington: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Wellington’s flat, unobstructed inland plain doesn’t slow hurricane wind down the way coastal communities sometimes do. Palm Beach County’s wind-speed maps put the village at roughly 140 to 150 mph design wind speeds, which means every replacement window and door here must carry a valid Florida Product Approval. Big-box stock frequently doesn’t. That’s the compliance side.
But here’s what makes Wellington genuinely different from Royal Palm Beach or even West Palm Beach: the village has two distinct housing markets, and each one ages CGI equipment in its own way. The first is the high-volume retrofit market comprised of pre-Hurricane Andrew CBS tract homes, most built between the late 1970s and early 2000s, still carrying original aluminum single-pane windows and old sliders. Those homes are now hitting the 25 to 35 year mark, which is exactly when CGI insulated glass seals fail and balances wear out. The second is the equestrian corridor along South Shore Boulevard, where oversized barn entries, groom’s quarters, and equipment bays were built with commercial-grade impact openings. Those doors endure heavy daily use and abrasive sand from the paddocks. A standard residential crew from outside the area rarely sees either problem at scale. We see both every week.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Wellington
We service every major CGI line found in Wellington: the Sentinel Series impact windows, the Estate Collection, the Targa Series, and the 9100 Series sliding glass doors. That covers the single and double hung units in the tract-home neighborhoods plus the wide sliders on estate properties.
Our policy on parts is straightforward. We prioritize genuine CGI components like balances, rollers, weatherstripping, and insulated glass units because they preserve design integrity and prolong remaining service life. When OEM parts are backordered or discontinued, we’ll install a high-quality aftermarket equivalent and tell you upfront. For windows over 20 years old with multiple failed components or visible edge-seal breakdown, we’ll give you honest guidance: repair if the frame is sound and the failure is isolated, replace if thermal performance is shot or code compliance is in question. We don’t push replacements to pad the invoice.
CGI Service Pricing in Wellington
CGI service pricing in Wellington varies by the job, but here’s what to expect based on the work:
- Balance or lift mechanism replacement: $180 to $290 per window, depending on CGI series and sash weight.
- Insulated glass unit replacement for fogged panes: $260 to $420 per sash, sized to the original CGI frame.
- Roller and track repair on a CGI sliding door: $350 to $620, depending on track condition and door width.
- Full impact-rated CGI window replacement: $1,100 to $2,400 per opening, installed, with Florida Product Approval documentation.
What drives the final number is the CGI series, the size of the opening, and whether we’re repairing or replacing. Our free estimate walks you through the exact line items, with no vague allowances. We also offer $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans. Those aren’t seasonal promotions; they’re standing commitments. Call (561) 660-9539 for an exact quote.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Wellington
We can often repair them. If the frame is sound and the failure is isolated, say a fogged glass unit or a worn balance, we’ll repair the window and restore service life. We recommend replacement only when multiple components have failed or the thermal performance is compromised beyond what new glass can fix. Call (561) 660-9539 and we’ll assess it honestly.
Yes. We install impact-rated CGI windows that meet Palm Beach County’s wind-load requirements and satisfy HOA impact-glass rules. Many Wellington HOAs tightened their standards after Hurricane Andrew, and a surprising number of the village’s original CGI windows predate that. We’ll handle the paperwork and confirm Florida Product Approval. Call (561) 660-9539 to schedule a free estimate.
We do, and those are some of the most common calls we get each October. The wide, non-standard openings on estate properties off South Shore Boulevard need commercial-grade handling. We service the tracks, rollers, and panels on oversized CGI sliders, and we stock parts sized for those openings so turnaround stays fast. Call (561) 660-9539 and tell us what’s binding.
In Wellington, it’s almost always roller track deformation combined with grit ingress. Fine sand from paddocks and driveways works into the track, the rollers wear unevenly, and the door starts to bind. We clean the track, replace deformed rollers, and realign the door. If you keep using it while it grinds, the track itself can get damaged, which is a bigger repair. Call (561) 660-9539 for a quick assessment.
Yes, in most cases. We replace the failed insulated glass unit and keep the existing CGI frame, which costs far less than a full window replacement and preserves the frame’s structural integrity. We match the original glass thickness and coating. Call (561) 660-9539 to get a line-item quote for the specific sash.
