How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Sentry shingle adhesive strip separation. CGI’s Sentry architectural asphalt shingle line relies on a heat-activated sealant strip to lock courses together. In Boca Raton, the problem is usually the opposite of what you’d expect: rapid cooling after intense afternoon heat causes partial seals, and wind-driven rain works under the shingle tabs. We see this on the east side of homes off Camino Gardens and along Yamato Road. The fix is resealing with a bond-compatible adhesive and replacing any shingle that’s cracked at the nail line.
• Flat tile profile cracking at the nose. CGI’s flat concrete tile series, common on a lot of Spanish-style homes in Boca Raton’s older neighborhoods off Federal Highway, has a known weak point at the leading edge where the nose overhangs the batten. Foot traffic from A/C techs and gutter crews snaps the nose off. Once that happens, wind-driven rain gets under the tile and rots the underlayment. We pull the broken tile, inspect the felt beneath, and replace only what failed.
• Curved barrel tile spalling near the eave. The CGI barrel and S-tile profiles found on newer Boca Raton construction hold up well until they don’t. What we see is small surface spalling where irrigation overspray hits the tile near the roofline, then salt from the coastal air works into the pores. It looks worse than it is, but if left alone the tile face will flake away over a couple of hurricane seasons. We match the profile and swap the affected tiles before the weather gets into the roof deck.
• Standing-seam fastener backout on metal roofs. CGI metal roofing, especially the standing-seam profiles, uses concealed clips in theory, but a lot of the Boca Raton installs from 2008 to 2012 used exposed fasteners at the eave and ridge transitions. Thermal expansion and salt corrosion cause slow backout. You’ll see a raised screw head with a rust halo. We replace the fastener with a compatible, properly seated one and verify the gasket seating before we leave.
• Valley metal bridging on heavier tile profiles. CGI’s tile lines put real weight on valley flashing, and when debris accumulates in a Boca Raton valley and holds moisture, the metal bridges and creates a small dam. Water backs up under the adjacent tile. We see this on homes near Royal Palm Yacht Club where leaf litter is constant. The fix is a corrected valley liner replacement with proper kick-out at the eave, not a patch.

Our CGI Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing Process

1. 1
   You call and we answer. Not a call center, not a voicemail pitch. A live person at (561) 816-5648 takes your details and schedules the visit.
2. 2
   We diagnose the CGI roof as a roofing problem, not a sale. Ed Winslow or a senior tech walks the roof, checks the failure, and tells you what is actually wrong and what it costs to fix, not replace.
3. 3
   Parts decision, made with you. If CGI parts are still in production and available, we use them. If the line is discontinued, we source compatible profile matches and tell you the trade-off before touching anything.
4. 4
   The repair is done clean. We protect the underlayment, replace only what failed, and re-bed or re-seat as the profile requires. Tile gets handled so we don’t create a second problem fixing the first.
5. 5
   We test before we pack up. Water test on the repair area, fastener torque check on metal, and a photo record of the finished work for your file.
6. 6
   You get the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. If the repair isn’t done right, we come back and make it right. Ed Winslow’s name is on the truck and the work, so the work has to be right.
