This page is for Miami homeowners who bought CGI roofing because they wanted hurricane-rated protection that holds up to coastal weather. You didn’t buy a commodity roof. You bought engineered impact resistance. When that roof needs service, it should be handled by people who understand CGI’s specific systems, not a crew that treats every shingle or tile the same. That’s where we come in.

Key Takeaways:

• We service CGI shingle, tile and metal roofing systems as an independent provider, not a corporate call center or an assembly-line crew.
• Our CGI work is backed by the 36500-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right.
• Upfront pricing, written quotes, and no trip charge inside Miami-Dade County.
• Ed Winslow owns the company. His name is on the door, not on a franchise agreement.

How CGI Products Fail and How We Fix Them

CGI roofs carry an impact rating for a reason. They’re built to take a hit from wind-driven debris and keep protecting the house. But even the best-engineered roofing has failure points, and in Miami’s heat, salt air and summer storm cycles, those points show up predictably.

• CGI Sierra Shingle: adhesive strip degradation in high-heat exposure. Miami sun breaks down the sealant strip between shingle courses faster than manufacturers’ temperate-zone testing suggests. You’ll see shingles lifting at the corners after a few summers, even when the shingle itself is still sound. We re-seal with a heat-rated adhesive and replace any shingles that have curled beyond salvage, matching the existing color profile.
• CGI Centurion Tile: underlayment failure at valley flashing. Tile roofs leak less at the tile than at the underlayment below it. In Miami’s afternoon downpours, we regularly find water wicking under valley metal where the original underlayment was lapped too short. Water rides the metal edge, works under the gap, and stains the ceiling below. We pull the tile apron, re-lay the valley with proper lap coverage, and reset the tiles by hand so the pattern stays true.
• CGI Alliance Metal Roof: fastener back-out from thermal cycling. Metal expands and contracts with every hot day and cool night. Over a Miami summer, that’s hundreds of thermal cycles. We see metal panel screws on older CGI Alliance installations working themselves loose, especially on south-facing slopes. The fix is systematic: torque-check every fastener on the affected plane, replace stripped or corroded fasteners, and re-seat the neoprene washers.
• CGI Estate Slate Tile: impact cracking at eave edges. The first course of tile at the roof edge takes the worst of falling branches and wind-lifted debris. We see hairline fractures along the eave course on CGI Estate Slate that owners miss until water stains appear on the fascia. We pull the cracked piece, inspect the batten below for rot, and set a replacement tile with a color match from our supplier.
• CGI Legacy Shingle: granule loss from salt-laden wind abrasion. Homes east of US-1 get salt mist riding the wind. That salt acts like sandpaper on granule-coated shingles. CGI Legacy Shingles hold up better than most, but we’ve replaced sections where granules have worn so thin the asphalt mat shows through and the shingle loses its UV resistance. We inspect for granule loss as a standard part of every CGI shingle roof evaluation.

Our CGI Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process

We treat every CGI roof as a system, not a surface. That means the fix isn’t just about what you can see from the ground. Here’s how a job goes when you call us.

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. No voicemail tree, no callback ticket. You describe what you’re seeing, and we schedule the visit. No trip charge inside Miami-Dade.
2. 2
   We inspect the roof in full. We walk the whole roof surface, check the underlayment at penetrations and valleys, and look for the failure pattern behind the symptom you called about. On a CGI leak, the water entry point is rarely where the stain is.
3. 3
   You get a written quote. We price the repair honestly, line by line: materials, labor, fasteners, underlayment, disposal if needed. If we can fix a section for $400 rather than re-roof the whole plane for ol2,000, we tell you so.
4. 4
   Parts decision. We prefer OEM CGI components when they’re available and warranty-sensitive. Where an aftermarket part is genuinely equivalent or better for the specific failure, we’ll tell you that too and let you decide. We never hide which is which.
5. 5
   The repair. Our technicians arrive in uniform, background-checked, and they do the work the same way we’d do it on Ed’s own roof: clean removal, proper prep, correct fastening, and no shortcuts.
6. 6
   We test and document. We wet-test the repaired area when water is involved, photograph the finished work, and explain what we did and why. Then the 36500-Day Done Right Promise applies: if it’s not done right, we come back and make it right.

What CGI Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Costs in Miami

Honest numbers up front. Here’s what we typically see on CGI work in Miami:

• Shingle repair (loose, lifted, or granule-damaged section): $350 to $900 depending on the size of the affected area and whether underlayment needs work.
• Tile replacement (cracked or broken CGI tile, single-course repair): $250 to $600 per tile location, including color matching, batten inspection, and resetting.
• Valley or flashing underlayment repair on tile roofs: $800 to $1,800 depending on valley length, slope access, and how much tile has to be pulled and reset.
• Metal roof fastener re-torque and reseal (per roof plane): $500 to $1,200 depending on panel count and accessibility.
• Full CGI shingle re-roof in Miami: $11,000 to $22,000 for a typical 1,500 to 2,500 square foot home, depending on tear-off weight, underlayment condition, and roof complexity.

The price moves on roof pitch, number of stories, how much of the old underlayment is still viable, and whether we’re matching discontinued CGI color profiles. You’ll never get a vague estimate from us. Call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll give you written numbers you can hold us to. The estimate is free.

Why Miami Homeowners Call Winslow Windows & Doors for CGI Work

We’ve been serving South Florida since 2011, and we’re still locally owned and owner-operated. Ed Winslow is the name on the door and the person accountable for every roof we touch. When you call us about a CGI problem, you’re not calling a dispatch center in another state. You’re calling a local company with a published address, a license number you can look up, and a 36500-Day Done Right Promise that means exactly what it says. If the work isn’t right, we make it right. No arguing, no fine print.

Our technicians know CGI roofs, but they also know PGT, CWS, ES Windows and ECO Window Systems. That matters more than you’d think. Many Miami homes have an impact-rated roof from one manufacturer and impact windows or doors from another. We understand how those systems interact, and we won’t sell you a fix that solves one problem while creating another. My name is on the door, literally. That’s all the guarantee you should need.
