AfterCGI Roof Replacement & Installation in Davie: What to Know First
Independent CGI roof replacement and installation in Davie typically runs $18,000 to $42,000 depending on the roof size, profile, and whether the decking underneath needs work. Most full replacements take 5 to 12 working days once materials arrive and permits clear. TruePane Windows & Doors is an independent CGI service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, which means we quote the work honestly without pushing a product line you don’t need.
If you own a CGI roof in Davie and it’s showing age, leaking, or the fasteners are walking out after years of storm cycles, this page tells you what actually fails, what it costs, and how we approach the job differently. Call (863) 208-5172 and a live person answers, day or night.
How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- CGI Sentinel standing seam: fastener backout at the clips. We see this on Sentinel panels that went in before CGI revised their clip design. Thermal cycling in Davie’s afternoon heat works the fasteners loose over ten or twelve years, and the panels start to chatter in wind. We pull the affected panels, replace the clip system with the current pattern, and reset the seams. This is not a caulk-and-pray fix; the panel has to come off.
- CGI Craftsman tile profile: cracked underlayment at the hips and ridges. The tile itself holds up, but the underlayment CGI spec’d in the early 2000s breaks down faster than expected in South Florida humidity. Water gets under the tile at the ridge and follows the battens to the soffit. We strip back to the deck, replace the underlayment with a modern high-temp synthetic, and reset the original tile if it’s still sound.
- CGI Board and Batten profile: end lap separation at the panel joints. This profile uses longer panels, and on Davie homes with wide roof planes, the end laps open up over time as the deck shifts. The fix is not more screws through the face; it’s removing the upper panel, correcting the lap, and reinstalling with the proper sealant in the channel. Half the jobs we see have been “repaired” twice already by someone who just added fasteners and moved on.
- CGI Encore shake profile: impact bruising that doesn’t show from the ground. After a hail event or a rough storm, Encore shake panels can take impact hits that look fine from the street but have micro-fractures in the stone coating. Those fractures let moisture into the steel substrate. We do a full walk with a moisture meter and a fine-tooth inspection, then replace only the damaged panels rather than selling you a whole roof.
- CGI Corrugated panel on older Davie homes: rust blooming at the cut edges. The factory edges hold up, but field-cut edges done with a saw instead of shears lose the protective coating and start to rust within a few years. We see this on original 1990s installations. The proper fix is cutting new panels with a shear, not a saw, and touching the edges with the matched coating before they go down.
Our CGI Roof Replacement & Installation Process
- 1
Call and inspection. You call (863) 208-5172. We schedule a time that works, show up in a marked truck, and walk the roof with you if you want. We measure, check the decking, and document what we find with photos.
- 2
Written quote on paper. We put the numbers in front of you line by line: material, fasteners, underlayment, flashings, disposal, permit, labor. No allowances that “might” increase. The price on the paper is the price on the bill.
- 3
Permit and material order. We pull the permit through Davie’s building department and order the CGI panels in the exact profile and color that match your roofline. Lead times on CGI run 3 to 8 weeks depending on the line.
- 4
Tear-off and deck repair. We strip the old roof, repair or replace decking that’s rotted or delaminated, and inspect the framing before anything goes back on. This is where most roofers cut corners; we don’t.
- 5
Installation and inspection. We set the underlayment, flashings, and CGI panels per manufacturer spacing and Davie wind-load requirements. The job gets its final inspection with the town before we call it done.
- 6
Cleanup and follow-up. We magnet-sweep the yard for fasteners, haul the debris, and walk the finished roof with you. If something’s not right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and fix it, no paperwork fight.
What CGI Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Davie

What moves the price: decking replacement, roof pitch, accessibility, and whether we’re matching an existing color that requires a custom order. What doesn’t move the price once we quote it: anything. The estimate is free and the number on the paper is the number you pay. Call (863) 208-5172 for a line-item quote on your specific roof.
Why Davie Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI Work
Dale Kessler grew up off Orange Drive near the old Davie Arena and learned roofing and glazing from his father before formal training at McFatter Technical College. We’ve been working on Broward County homes for over forty-two years through that family line, and we’ve been doing it as TruePane since 2008. The founding rule is still on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our techs are background-checked and uniformed. They measure every opening twice and every roof plane at least as carefully. We quote CGI side by side with PGT, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems on paper so you see exactly what each line costs and what you’re getting. The Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard mean both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day; you won’t talk to a call center or wait for a callback. Call (863) 208-5172 and ask for a free estimate.
FAQs
A full CGI roof replacement in Davie typically takes 5 to 12 working days once materials are on site and the permit is approved. The material order itself runs 3 to 8 weeks depending on the CGI line and color. We give you a written timeline before we start and update it if anything changes.
No, if the work is done to manufacturer specifications and the warranty layers are registered properly. That’s why we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. Independent installation does not void a CGI product warranty. Call (863) 208-5172 and we’ll show you the paperwork on paper.
If the decking is sound and the damage is isolated, targeted panel replacement is usually the right call and costs a fraction of a full roof. If the underlayment is compromised or the fasteners are failing across multiple planes, replacement is the honest answer. We’ll tell you which one your roof actually needs, not which one pays better. Estimates are free.
Yes. We pull every permit the Town of Davie requires and schedule the final inspection. A roof without a closed permit is a problem when you sell the house or file an insurance claim. We don’t skip that step and we don’t ask you to.
Call us. The Done Right Promise means if the work isn’t right, we come back and make it right with no paperwork and no arguing. And because both warranty layers are registered in writing, the manufacturer coverage is in place from day one. A live person answers the phone, day or night, at (863) 208-5172.
