CWS Impact Windows in Davie: What to Know First
CWS impact windows in Davie can be repaired and replaced by an independent service provider, and most single-unit work is completed in one visit. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and we’ve been setting and sealing windows in Broward County since 2008. If you own a CWS product and it’s fogged, binding, leaking, or failed its last storm, this page is for you. Call (863) 208-5172 for a direct answer from a live person, any hour.
We are not affiliated with CWS and we are not a CWS-authorized dealer. We are an independent CWS service provider, which matters because it means we work for you and your warranty, not for a manufacturer’s replacement-quota sheet. Dale Kessler grew up off Orange Drive near the old Davie Arena and learned the trade at McFatter Technical College in Davie, so he knows what Davie humidity, afternoon storms, and salt air do to a window over twenty years. If it is not right on paper, it will not be right in the wall.
How CWS Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
CWS builds a solid product, but every window line has its patterns. Here are the failure modes we see on CWS impact windows in Davie homes:
- CWS 600 Series sashes binding at the meeting rail. The 600 Series is common in Davie houses built in the early 2000s. After fifteen-plus years of Florida humidity cycling, the aluminum frame tolerances shift and the sash starts dragging. Most contractors respond by cranking the roller adjustment, which buys six months and then the problem returns. We re-set the frame alignment, replace worn rollers with the correct OEM-spec part, and check the reveal with a level before we call it done. The fix should last, not just pass inspection.
- CWS 700 Series and 800 Series fogged glass units. A failed seal on an impact-rated insulated glass unit is not a cosmetic issue. The argon or krypton fill is gone, the Low-E coating is oxidizing, and the window is no longer performing to its impact or energy spec. We measure the exact glass pack thickness and order a replacement unit that matches the CWS frame pocket. No reusing the old gasket, no “close enough” caulk bead.
- CWS casement windows that will not crank closed after a season of sea air. This is a classic Davie problem: the bronze or zinc hardware corrodes from salt-laden air and the operator gear strips under the extra torque. CWS factory hardware is good, but aftermarket stainless operators from the right supplier frequently outlast the original in coastal-adjacent zip codes. We quote both options side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you are buying, and we register both manufacturer warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
- CWS fixed windows with leaking perimeter seals. When the butyl tape or sealant around the frame fails, water finds its way in during a hard summer storm. The first contractor to look at it often caulks over the old bead and calls it sealed. That does not last. We remove the old sealant, clean the joint properly, re-bed the frame with the right grade of sealant for a Florida impact window, and do a water test before we leave.
- CWS impact windows that passed a previous “repair” but still rattle against the frame in wind. On a true impact window, the laminated glass is bonded to the sash with structural-grade glazing tape. If that bond is compromised or the window was set out of square, the entire sash can flex under load. We remove the sash, check the square of the frame opening, re-tape or re-glaze as the unit requires, and re-set it. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.

We measure every opening twice. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians arrive with the right tools and a full set of specs. We check the frame square, the sash reveal, the glass pack thickness, and the hardware condition before we quote anything.
- 3
You get a side-by-side quote on paper. OEM CWS parts versus quality aftermarket equivalents. Line items, printed, no handshake numbers. You see exactly what you are paying for before we order a single part.

We do the work in one visit. For most single-unit repairs and replacements, we complete the job the same day. We remove the old unit or hardware, clean and prep the opening properly, install the new parts, and seal everything to Florida impact standards.
- 5
We test, then we remove the old window and clean up. Before we leave, we check the operation, run a water test if the seal was touched, and walk you through what we did and why.
- 6
We register both warranty layers in writing. The Keystone Standard means your manufacturer warranty and our workmanship warranty are documented before our truck leaves the driveway. The Done Right Promise covers our workmanship. If it is not right, we make it right. No paperwork fights.

FAQs
Work performed by an independent contractor does not automatically void a CWS manufacturer warranty, but using the wrong parts or installation methods can. We match OEM specifications on every CWS job and register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing so your coverage stays intact. Call (863) 208-5172 and we will check your specific CWS warranty terms before any work begins.
Yes. We have access to OEM CWS parts for the 600, 700, and 800 Series, and we also source quality aftermarket equivalents when they offer better long-term performance in Davie’s coastal climate. We quote both options side by side on paper so you know exactly what you are buying. If you are not sure which series you have, we can identify it during your free estimate.
It depends on three things: the age and condition of the frame, whether the glass unit is still sealed and impact-rated, and the cost difference between the repair and a new unit. A fogged 700 Series unit with a solid frame is usually worth re-glazing. A frame with corrosion at the corners or repeated hardware failures usually is not. We will show you both numbers and let you decide without pressure. Call (863) 208-5172 to schedule a diagnostic visit.
Most single-unit CWS repairs are completed in one visit. Parts that need to be ordered typically arrive within five to ten business days, and we will return as scheduled to finish the job. We do not leave a second appointment hanging. We will be there when we say.
Yes, when the scope of work requires it. Davie and Broward County have their own permitting requirements for impact-rated window replacement, and we handle the paperwork, the inspection, and the sign-off so the work is done right and documented. You get a copy of everything. Call (863) 208-5172 for a free estimate and we will walk you through what your specific job requires.
