This page is for Hialeah homeowners who own CGI windows, especially the custom shapes that were ordered when the house was built and are now fogged, binding, or leaking. We walk you through how these products fail, what it costs to fix them here, and why an independent service provider is often your fastest path to a lasting repair.

How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

CGI builds a serious storm-rated window. But custom and geometric units carry failure modes we see over and over in Hialeah homes, and knowing which line you own changes the fix. Here are the five failures we address most often.

• Fogged glass in the SunQuest/StormSeeker fixed geometric units. Arched and radius windows are almost always fixed sashes, which means the glass is set directly into the frame with a sealant system that takes full sun on south-facing walls. The seal fails, condensation collects at the bottom curve of the arch, and the unit looks like a fish tank after a year of Miami-Dade humidity. We replace the glass pack and reseal, we don’t sell you a whole new window unless the frame is twisted.
• Binding sashes on CGI casement and awning units with custom radii. In Hialeah, the heat and moisture cycle pushes frame corners out of square over fifteen or twenty years. The geared operator gets stiffer each season until the sash won’t seat against the weatherstripping. If the opening isn’t square, nothing else matters. We re-lay the original opening, reset the frame, and only then replace the operator and hardware, so you’re not buying a new gear kit every two years.
• Leaking at the mullion joints where two geometric units tie together. A half-round over a rectangle patio door, or two angled units sharing a mullion, traps water at the seam. Over time, the original shop-applied mullion sealant shrinks and water tracks the seam, runs inside the wall, and shows up as peeling paint at the window base. We strip the joint, re-bond the mullion with a commercial polyurethane, and refit the interior stop clean.
• Cracked gas-line or pressure-plug glass in oversized custom picture windows. CGI’s larger fixed units sometimes show stress cracks along the corner, especially on openings over eight feet wide. The thermal expansion on west-facing walls in Hialeah is real, and a single-pane replacement is half the cost of a new full-frame custom unit. We match the tint and low-E coating so the repaired pane doesn’t stand out like a patch.
• Old, discontinued CGI series with no factory replacement parts. We see a fair number of early-2000s CGI units still in Hialeah homes. Cam locks, keepers, and tilt-latch hardware from that era are out of production. Our parts desk sources from the OEM supply chain where it still exists, and when it doesn’t, we use tested aftermarket equivalents that meet the same dimensional spec without changing the window’s load rating. We tell you which parts are OEM and which are equivalent before we touch the job, and the choice is yours.

Our CGI Custom & Geometric Windows Process

Here’s what a repair or replacement looks like when you call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI work in Hialeah.

1. 1
   Measure first, twice. We take the rough opening dimensions and document the current unit, glazing, and frame condition, then note what the original framing is doing behind the window.
2. 2
   Diagnose the real failure. We find whether you have a seal failure, a frame shift, a hardware problem, or a combination. We carry a moisture meter and check the wall cavity around the opening before we quote anything.
3. 3
   Present options on paper. OEM versus quality aftermarket, repair versus replace, with the manufacturer warranty implications of each choice, side by side and in writing.
4. 4
   Do the work on schedule. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians arrive prepared, remove the old unit without tearing trim, set the new glass or window square, and flash the opening properly.
5. 5
   Register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. This is our Keystone Standard, and it applies to every CGI job we do. Workmanship is guaranteed for 90 days after every job, and we put that in writing too.
6. 6
   Clean the site and walk you through what was done. You see the work before we leave, and you’ll know exactly what parts went in, what’s covered, and what to watch for down the road.

What CGI Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Hialeah

Here’s the honest cost picture for CGI custom and geometric window work in Hialeah, based on the jobs our crew sees weekly.

• Single glass-pack replacement on a fixed geometric unit (octagon, oval, half-round, trapezoid): $180 to $420, depending on glass size, low-E, and whether the frame requires resealing.
• Full-frame replacement of an arched or radius CGI unit under 20 square feet: $1,200 to $2,800, factoring in the custom radius, impact glazing, and stucco return work.
• Oversized custom fixed window (8 to 12 feet wide) replacement with CGI-grade impact glazing: $3,800 to $6,500, depending on opening size and whether the framing needs straightening.
• Hardware rebuild on a binding casement or awning (operator, hinge, latch, weatherstripping): $220 to $480, plus frame work if the opening is out of square and needs resetting.

What moves the price: the size and custom radius, whether the glass is impact-rated, whether the frame is still square or needs opening work, and whether parts are still available from the manufacturer. We give fixed pricing in writing, no change orders after the fact, and the estimate is free. Call (386) 977-5410 to schedule one.
