CGI Construction in Davie, FL | Mason Remodeling Co Fort Lauderdale
CGI impact window and door service in Davie typically runs $400 to $1,800 for repairs and $8,000 to $25,000 for full impact window installations, depending on the unit and what we find behind the stucco. We’re Mason Remodeling Co Fort Lauderdale, a General Contractor - Davie and independent CGI service provider that works across the town’s equestrian estates and 1970s CBS homes. What separates our work here is simple: this town’s semi-rural zoning and concrete-block housing stock create repair and retrofit challenges you won’t find in Plantation or Cooper City.

Why Davie Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
Our crews have rebuilt and repaired CGI windows and doors across Davie long enough to know which installations were done right and which were done by somebody guessing at the flashing details. We’re independent, which shapes every recommendation we make. When a CGI unit is worth repairing, we say so. When the frame is compromised and replacement makes more sense, we tell you that too. No factory quotas, no pressure to sell new glass.
Isaac Pruett, our owner, has spent the better part of two decades doing remodeling and construction work across South Florida, much of it in Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods like Victoria Park. He came up through the trades the hard way, starting with framing tools in his teens and later at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College. That background matters on Davie jobsites where the real condition of a window opening doesn’t reveal itself until the old unit is out. We tell you what we found, what it takes to fix it, and what it will cost, before we touch a thing.

Common CGI Construction Problems We Solve in Davie
- Fogging between panes on older CGI insulated glass. Davie’s high humidity and wide daily temperature swings pull moisture into failed seals faster than drier inland air does. A fogged Sentinel Series unit in a Forest Ridge home often means the glass pack needs rebuilding, not the whole window torn out.
- Failed or cracked weatherstripping on CGI sliding doors. Summer thunderstorms push wind-driven rain sideways. Once the weatherstripping on a CGI sliding door loses its flex, water finds the track and starts working under the threshold. We see this constantly in Davie homes where doors face southwest toward the afternoon storms.
- Corrosion on CGI aluminum frames near horse paddocks. Ammonia from stable waste and moisture off the paddock area pit aluminum finishes if the frames aren’t rinsed regularly. Davie’s equestrian-zoned properties put windows closer to animals than you’d ever see in a suburban subdivision.
- Improperly flashed CGI window installations from the 1980s and 1990s that leak at the sill on CBS walls. Concrete block holds water differently than wood framing. When old CGI units were set without proper sill pans, heavy downpours push moisture into the wall cavity. On a CBS home, that water travels inward and shows up as paint bubbling below the window line.
- Retrofitting impact glass into walls originally built for single-pane sliders. Davie’s older ranches didn’t anticipate impact-rated frames. The opening dimensions, the buck size, and the interior trim all need adjusting, and each house we open up is slightly different from the last.
CGI Service in Davie: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Davie’s equestrian zoning means many CGI window replacements must meet barn-adjacent code setbacks while matching the low-profile aesthetic of ranch-style homes. That’s a different problem set than you’d face in Plantation or Cooper City, where strict HOA rules dominate the conversation. Out here, the challenge is retrofitting impact glass into CBS walls originally built for single-pane sliders, often with a horse barn as a neighbor and a concrete truck trying to navigate a road designed for trailers. In Forest Ridge and Shenandoah, narrow lanes make window deliveries and old-glass removal a logistics puzzle. Our tech just finished swapping a fogged CGI Sentinel Series window on a 1978 CBS ranch in Forest Ridge. The original install had no sill pan, so we cut back the stucco, added a stainless flashing pan, and set a new laminated impact unit matching the existing bronze tint. Homeowner’s horse trailer lanes meant we dropped the old glass into a trailer-mounted rack instead of a dumpster. That’s the kind of planning you only develop by working this town specifically.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Davie
We service the CGI Sentinel Series impact windows, the Estate Collection, the Classic Series, and CGI sliding glass doors in every configuration we’ve encountered across Davie. For impact-rated units, we use genuine CGI replacement glass and hardware whenever available, because structural integrity isn’t something to gamble with. For out-of-production lines like early Sentinels, our fabrication partners supply code-compliant aftermarket laminated glass that matches the original thickness and tint. We stock common weatherstripping profiles, roller sets, and locking hardware for faster turnaround on Davie service calls. When a unit can’t be safely repaired or the homeowner wants upgraded energy performance, we discuss full replacement and walk through the options line by line. We’re a service provider, not a manufacturer arm, so our CGI sales & service recommendations stay neutral between repairing and replacing.

What moves the price on CGI work in Davie is what’s behind the stucco. CBS walls from the 1970s and 1980s often need new bucks, flashing, and interior trim before a new impact unit sits correctly.

FAQs – CGI Construction in Davie
Can you repair a CGI Sentinel window that has fogged between the panes, or does it need full replacement?
In most cases we can rebuild the glass pack with matching laminated impact glass and keep the original Sentinel frame, as long as the frame itself is sound and the structural seal hasn’t failed. The deciding factor is whether removing the old glass reveals corrosion or frame damage. Call (754) 354-3720 and we’ll assess it in person.
Do CGI impact windows need special flashing details on Davie’s CBS (concrete block) homes?
Yes. Concrete block stores water differently than wood framing, so a CGI unit set without a proper sill pan and perimeter flashing will eventually leak at the sill line after the kind of heavy downpours Davie gets every summer. We cut back stucco, install a steel or stainless flashing pan, and set the new unit with the frame sealed to the block, not just screwed and caulked.
What’s the typical lead time for a replacement CGI sliding door panel in Davie?
For a standard CGI sliding glass door panel, most Davie jobs take 7 to 14 days once we confirm glass thickness, tint, and hardware match. Out-of-production models can push it to three weeks while aftermarket glass is fabricated. We’ll give you a written timeline with the estimate.
Can you match the bronze or white CGI frames on a 1980s home when we replace only a few windows?
We can match the original bronze or white tone closely, and on many early Series units we can source aftermarket frames with the same finish family. An exact match depends on how the original finish has aged. We’ll bring samples to the estimate so you can see them against your existing frames before committing. Schedule a free estimate at (754) 354-3720.
How do CGI impact windows hold up in Davie’s high-humidity, salt-adjacent climate?
CGI’s impact-rated aluminum frames handle the climate well if they’re maintained, meaning regular rinsing of the frames, checking weatherstripping before storm season, and replacing worn hardware when doors start to drag. Paddock-adjacent homes need more frequent frame rinsing because ammonia from stable waste accelerates corrosion. Frames that sit damp and dirty will pit faster than those on an interior lot.
