How CWS Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

CWS built a lot of custom window and door work into Oakland Park homes over the years, and we have seen the same failures repeat across enough jobs to know what we are walking into before we arrive. Here are the five we run into most:

• Custom shape windows losing their seal. CWS radius, arch, and octagon windows rely on bent-glass units, and the seal at the bend is the first thing South Florida humidity attacks. When we pull one and lay it flat, the spacer is often corroded exactly where the glass curves. We replace the IGU with a fresh bent unit, and we order it cut to the actual opening, not the original spec sheet. Oakland Park houses settle, and an eighth of an inch matters on a curve.
• Oversized glass panels binding in the frame. CWS custom picture windows and large fixed panels are heavy. When the rough opening was not reinforced properly – and we see this a lot in older Oakland Park construction – the header sags just enough to clamp the panel in the frame. You cannot force this straight with shims. We pull the panel, reframe the opening with the right load path, and reinstall so the glass floats the way it should.
• Patio door rollers wearing into the track. CWS sliding patio doors pick up grit in the lower track, and once a roller starts dragging it grinds a groove. Homeowners replace rollers and the door still grinds because the track itself is scored. We replace both – track and rollers – as a set. Doing one without the other is a callback waiting to happen, and we already know where the callback leads.
• Architectural grilles delaminating in direct sun. CWS grille systems – the SDL bars and muntins between glass – take a beating on west-facing Oakland Park elevations. The adhesive between the grille profile and the glass breaks down after years of afternoon sun and rain cycling. We remove and replace grilles with a match to the original CWS profile, and we do it without pulling the sash out of the wall when the frame is still true.
• Weatherstripping gone hard and flat. CWS casement and awning windows use compression seals that dry out in salt air. Once they flatten, the window leaks air and you feel it at the crank handle in December. The fix is fresh CWS-profile weatherstripping, not a generic foam strip. We keep the common profiles in stock and order the odd ones so your window closes the way it did when it was new.

Our CWS Custom Windows & Doors Process

Here is how a CWS job goes from the first call to the final walk-through:

1. 1
   Call and talk to a person. You call (863) 264-3649. A live person answers, takes down what you are seeing and hearing, and schedules a time. No voicemail tree, no callback form.
2. 2
   We measure and diagnose on site. Our technician measures every opening twice – the rough opening, the sash, the reveal – and identifies the actual cause of the failure. We do not quote on symptom guesses.
3. 3
   You get a written line-item estimate. OEM part, aftermarket part, full replacement, repair only – the options go down on paper side by side, with prices. You decide, we do not.
4. 4
   We do the work, including the part decisions. Where an OEM CWS part is the right call for warranty continuity, we use it. Where a quality aftermarket part matches or beats the original and saves you money, we tell you plainly and let you choose. No silent substitutions.
5. 5
   We test before we leave. We cycle the window or door through its full range. We check the seal, the square, the operation, the drainage. If the pane is not true, the job is not done – that is the rule, and it applies to every CWS job we touch.
6. 6
   We register both warranty layers in writing. Before the truck leaves your driveway, you have the manufacturer warranty duration and our Done Right Promise in writing. No verbal assurances, no fine print that covers neither.
