This page is for homeowners in Hobe Sound, Jupiter Island, and the waterfront communities near Peck Lake who already have CWS impact-rated products installed and need repair, replacement, or an honest second opinion on another contractor’s scope. We are not affiliated with or authorized by CWS; we are an independent CWS service provider with eight manufacturer lines in our toolkit.

How CWS Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• CWS 3120 Series single hung impact windows: The balance shoe track cracks under repeated cycling in Hobe Sound’s salt-laden air, causing the sash to drop or tilt. We see this most often in homes within a mile of the Intracoastal where the marine layer accelerates corrosion of the nylon components. We replace with OEM-spec balance assemblies or upgrade to stainless-travel versions where the rough opening allows.
• CWS 5400 Series horizontal roller impact windows: The tandem roller carriage seizes when debris accumulates in the bottom rail, a problem amplified by Hobe Sound’s sandy soil and the pollen loads from February through April. The sash drags, the lock misaligns, and the weatherstrip tears. We pull the sash, clean the rail to bare aluminum, replace the carriage with OEM or equivalent Delrin-wheel units, and re-establish the design sightline so the lock engages without force.
• CWS vinyl impact window frame corners: Heat-welded corners separate under thermal cycling when the original weld penetration was marginal, common in units installed during the 2015-2018 rush. The gap allows water intrusion behind the fin, and in Hobe Sound’s afternoon thunderstorms that water finds the sheathing fast. We diagnose with a borescope inspection, then recommend either corner reconstruction with structural adhesive and mechanical pinning or full-frame replacement if the substrate is compromised.
• CWS impact door multipoint lock systems: The deadbolt throw misaligns with the keep as the composite door slab settles on its hinges, particularly on 8-foot units facing east where morning sun hits one jamb harder than the other. Owners report the handle lifts but the bolt does not retract fully. We measure the engagement depth, shim or replace the keep, and adjust hinge loading so the slab returns to plumb. We do not grind the bolt; that voids the impact rating.
• CWS laminated impact glass delamination: The PVB interlayer clouds at the edges after years of UV exposure and edge moisture, visible first as a 3-4mm haze band that owners mistake for seal failure. It is not seal failure; it is interlayer degradation, and it progresses inward. We source CWS-specified laminated glass from our supplier network, verify the interlayer manufacturer (SentryGlas vs. standard PVB), and replace to maintain the original design pressure rating stamped on the frame.

Our CWS Impact Windows & Doors Process

1. 1
   Measured survey. We arrive with the license number you were given at booking, photograph the opening, and record rough opening dimensions, squareness, and plumb to 1/16 inch. You keep this document.
2. 2
   Diagnostics with evidence. We identify the CWS series from the frame stamp or glass etch, test operation cycles, and use borescope or thermal imaging where water intrusion is suspected. We show you what we found.
3. 3
   Parts decision. OEM CWS components are our first call, but we stock quality aftermarket equivalents for discontinued series and can cross-reference to PGT or CGI hardware where the performance spec matches. We explain the trade-off and put the choice in writing.
4. 4
   Written scope and price. The quote references your measured survey by date and cannot deviate from it. Haven Clause 1: Have it in writing. You approve before we order.
5. 5
   Installation and testing. We install to the sightline specified in CWS’s shop drawings, cycle the unit 25 times, verify lock engagement depth, and photograph the completed condition.
6. 6
   Documentation and guarantee. You receive the photo record, the final invoice matching the quote, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped under the Haven Standard.

Why Hobe Sound Homeowners Call Sightline Windows & Doors Hobe Sound for CWS Work

We have completed 18,000+ openings since 2012, every one with a written price before work started and a documented photo record when finished. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is not a courtesy; it is Haven Clause 5, stamped on every job. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before arrival. We carry eight manufacturer lines, so if your CWS series is discontinued or the lead time extends past what your opening can tolerate, we can specify PGT, CGI, ES Windows, or ECO Window Systems to the same performance tier. Sonia Raman, who leads this operation, measures every rough opening twice before ordering anything. Measure it right the first time, and the door closes the way it’s supposed to - every time after that.
