CGI Custom & Geometric Windows in Pompano Beach: What to Know First
As an independent CGI service provider in Pompano Beach, we install and replace CGI custom and geometric windows with written pricing delivered before any work begins and a documented photo record when the job is finished. Most CGI custom window jobs in Pompano Beach run $1,800-$4,500 per opening depending on shape complexity, impact rating, and whether the rough opening needs reframing. Turnaround from measured survey to installation is typically 4-6 weeks for standard geometric shapes, 8-10 weeks for custom arched or curved units that require CGI’s Miami-Dade engineering submittal.
This page is for homeowners in Pompano Beach who already own CGI windows and need custom or geometric replacements, or who are specifying CGI for a new installation with non-standard shapes. We also service PGT, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems when the opening calls for a different performance tier or price point. Call (754) 253-0713 to schedule your free measured survey.
How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Escalade Series fixed geometric windows: The thermal break in the Escalade’s aluminum frame separates at the weld corners on radius-top and hexagonal units, especially on south-facing elevations in Pompano Beach where the daily UV cycle exceeds 1,000 BTU/ft² for eight months of the year. We see this as a progressive gap at the interior frame corner that lets conditioned air escape. Our fix is a full frame replacement with the updated Escalade II corner assembly, not a caulk patch that will fail again in 18 months.
- Sparta Series impact-rated geometric windows: Sparta’s laminated glass-to-frame bite depth is 3/16 inch shallower than CGI’s Estate or Estate Entrée lines, which means custom trapezoid and triangle shapes in Sparta are more prone to glass slippage under positive pressure loads during northeast winter fronts. We catch this in the measured survey by checking the sightline offset with a feeler gauge. When we find slippage, we specify either a reglaze with a deeper bite setting block or a step-up to Estate hardware if the opening budget allows.
- Estate Series arched windows: The Estate line uses a two-piece extruded arch that is field-joined with a spline; in Pompano Beach’s salt-air environment within two miles of the Intracoastal, that spline corrodes and the arch drops its seal. Homeowners notice this as condensation between the panes that clears by midday. We replace with a one-piece thermally broken arch extrusion where CGI’s current catalog permits it, or we fabricate a custom break-metal head flashing that diverts water away from the joint.
- Custom oversized geometric units (42-inch+ sightlines): CGI’s standard geometric submittal package caps individual lite sizes at 40 inches on the short leg for impact-rated custom shapes. When a Pompano Beach waterfront home specifies larger, we see stress fractures at the narrowest point of the shape, typically the apex of a gothic arch or the acute corner of a diamond. Our fix is a structural mullion redesign that splits the load across two lites, documented in the written scope with the engineering letter from CGI’s Miami office.
- Sparta and Estate Entrée fixed octagon windows: The octagon geometry concentrates stress at every 135-degree corner, and CGI’s standard glazing tape application in these shapes sometimes misses the vertex by 1/8 inch, enough for water intrusion during Pompano Beach’s summer thunderstorms that drop 2-3 inches in an hour. We remove the lite, clean the tape bed with denatured alcohol, and reset with a dual-durometer tape that compresses at the vertex without oozing at the flat. The photo record shows the before and after sightline measurement.
Before
AfterOur CGI Custom & Geometric Windows Process
- 1
Measured survey you keep. We arrive with a laser measure, a moisture meter, and a camera. Sonia Raman or a Haven Standard technician records the rough opening width, height, and squareness to 1/16 inch, notes the existing frame condition, and photographs every elevation. You receive this document before we leave.
- 2
CGI series identification and failure diagnosis. We locate the etched mark on the glass spacer or the frame stamp to confirm series, year, and original glazing spec. For geometric shapes, we trace the profile onto template material if a replacement is needed.
- 3
Parts decision: OEM, quality aftermarket, or cross-manufacturer. We specify CGI OEM extrusions and glass for impact-rated custom work because the Miami-Dade NOA is tied to the exact assembly. For non-impact geometric replacements in interior locations, we may source from our CWS or ECO Window Systems relationships if the performance spec matches and the price difference benefits the customer. This is documented in the written quote with the rationale.
- 4
Written quote that matches the survey. Haven Clause 1: the price we write is the price you pay. For CGI custom work, this includes the submittal fee, the engineering review if the shape exceeds standard catalog parameters, the lead time, and the installation labor with permit handling if required by Pompano Beach building department.
- 5
Installation and real-time documentation. Our crew arrives uniformed with license numbers visible. We set the frame with shims at 16 inches on center, fasten per CGI’s published schedule, flash with self-adhered membrane (not just caulk), and photograph every step. The photo record uploads to your job file before we leave.
- 6
Final sightline check and 365-Day Done Right Promise activation. We measure the installed unit’s sightline offset one last time, test operation on operable geometric shapes, and leave you with the written warranty card stamped with the Haven Standard.

Why Pompano Beach Homeowners Call Sightline Windows & Doors Pompano Beach for CGI Work
We are independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, not a franchise or a manufacturer-authorized dealer with sales quotas to hit. That matters for CGI custom work because we can specify across eight product lines - PGT, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, and others - when the opening’s performance requirement or your budget points away from CGI.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before arrival, per Haven Clause 3. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every job, not offered as a courtesy. And the photo record we leave is the same documentation we keep: if a callback happens, we both have the evidence of how the frame was flashed and where the shims landed.
Sonia Raman’s crew has worked CGI jobs from new construction in the Pompano Beach waterfront corridor to impact-glass retrofits on older homes near Sample Road. She knows the difference a correctly seated frame makes when a named storm comes through, and she is known in the trade for refusing to cut corners on flashing details - the part most homeowners never see and most callbacks trace back to. Measure once, document it, then cut.
FAQs
No, provided the replacement parts are CGI OEM and the installation follows the manufacturer’s published guidelines. CGI’s warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship; it does not require installation by a CGI-authorized dealer. We use OEM extrusions and glass for impact-rated custom work and document the installation per CGI’s spec so your warranty remains intact. Call (754) 253-0713 if you have a specific warranty question about your series and year.
Standard geometric shapes from CGI’s catalog - triangles, trapezoids, octagons, circles - typically ship in 4-6 weeks from order. Custom arched, radius-top, or gothic shapes requiring Miami-Dade engineering submittal take 8-10 weeks. We do not quote faster lead times than we have documented from CGI’s Miami facility. The written scope we deliver includes the realistic date range, not a placeholder.
It depends on what failed. Reglazing a cracked lite in an intact Estate or Sparta frame is a repair we do regularly. A separated thermal break in an Escalade geometric unit, or a corroded arch spline, requires frame replacement because the structural integrity is compromised. We diagnose this in the measured survey and tell you which path applies before any work is priced. Bring us a competitor’s written estimate and we will review it at no charge.
Yes, when Pompano Beach building department requires it. Impact-rated window replacement in the city typically triggers a permit if the opening size changes or if the home is in a designated flood zone. We handle the application, the inspection scheduling, and the final sign-off. The permit cost is listed as a line item in your written quote, not buried in overhead.
We check CGI’s current catalog against your existing unit. If the shape has been discontinued, we evaluate whether a CWS, ES Windows, or ECO Window Systems custom geometric can match the sightline and performance spec, or whether a custom fabrication shop in our network can replicate the profile. We do not sell you a “close enough” stock unit. The written quote will state the exact source and the reason for the selection.
