CWS Construction in Lompico, CA | Brookside Contractors
We provide independent CWS window and door service across Lompico, and the honest answer is this: Lompico changes how every CWS job gets done. Steep private roads, redwood canopy, wildfire-zone detailing, and older cabin-era framing all shape what we stock, how we stage materials, and when we recommend repair over replacement. We’re Brookside Contractors, led by Nate Burrell, and we’ve been installing and servicing CWS products in the Santa Cruz Mountains long enough to know which failures are Lompico-specific and which are just age. Call (833) 725-3508 for a straight assessment.
Why Lompico Residents Choose Us for CWS Service
CWS builds impact-rated aluminum and vinyl windows that most Bay Area crews rarely see up close. We work with them constantly. The Series 2000 vinyl sliders, the Series 7000 impact aluminum frames, the Estate and Classic sliding doors, and the custom impact sliders are all familiar territory for our crew. What sets us apart in Lompico specifically is that we’re not learning the canyon on your job. Nate Burrell grew up in Morgan Hill’s Paradise Valley area, training in construction technology at Gavilan College in Gilroy, and spent two decades on South Santa Clara County job sites before building Brookside Contractors. That background means we treat a Lompico window replacement as a structural and weatherproofing job, not a simple glass swap. We’re an independent CWS service provider, not authorized by CWS, and that independence means we give you an honest repair-versus-replace call every time. For CWS sales & service across Santa Cruz County, we bring the local knowledge and the product familiarity together.

Common CWS Construction Problems We Solve in Lompico
- Vinyl slider tracks packed with redwood needles and tanoak debris. CWS Series 2000 vinyl sliders have relatively tight track clearances. In Lompico’s canopy, needles, bark, and small twigs work into those tracks during every wind event. After a wet winter, the debris compacts, rollers seize, and sashes bind. We clean the tracks, replace damaged rollers, and check the sill pan before the next storm.
- Weep-hole and sill-pan clogging on canyon-facing walls. When wind-driven rain hits a Lompico wall during a heavy winter storm, CWS windows rely on clear weep holes and properly sloped sill pans to shed water. Clogged weeps back water up under the sash, and we see this recurring on west- and south-facing canyon walls all season. The fix involves clearing weeps, resetting the sill pan slope, and verifying the flashing detail.
- Seal and gasket breakdown from summer UV and wildfire smoke ash. Lompico sits in a high-wildfire-risk zone, and the Santa Cruz Mountains saw significant smoke and ash in recent fire seasons. Ash is abrasive and slightly acidic. Combined with UV exposure at elevation, older CWS seals and gaskets lose their flexibility. The result is air infiltration and fogged insulated glass. We replace the glass units and gaskets with OEM CWS parts when available.
- Frame and anchor corrosion on CWS aluminum units. Many Lompico homes are older owner-built or cabin-era structures where deck and siding details trap moisture against the rough opening. That moisture sits against CWS aluminum frames and attacks the anchors. We see corrosion that looks minor from the interior but has compromised the frame’s hold at the rough opening. In those cases, we’re straightforward: repair if the frame is sound, replace if the corrosion is structural.
- Air and water infiltration around old CWS units in wildfire-zone detailing. Lompico falls under Santa Cruz County’s wildland-urban-interface building requirements. Older CWS windows often lack the modern fire-resistant flashing and ember-resistant detailing that’s now expected. We address the opening as a system: flashing, sill pan, anchors, and the window itself.
CWS Service in Lompico: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the fact most window contractors won’t know until the truck shows up: Lompico’s private roads and steep driveways off Lompico Road often can’t take a standard delivery truck, let alone a full window package. For a whole-house CWS replacement, we split the delivery into smaller loads or stage materials at the road and pump them up in stages. That adds handling and sequencing time to every Lompico window job, and it’s exactly why we plan loads before a foundation or rough opening ever gets touched. We’ve worked this road. We know where a box truck can turn around and where it can’t. That’s not information you’ll find on a generic CWS service page. It comes from doing the work here. The same goes for staging: on a steep redwood-shaded lot off Lompico Road, we replaced a set of failing CWS Series 2000 vinyl sliders whose tracks were packed with needles and whose sills had rusted through after years of canyon rain. We pumped a small delivery up the driveway in stages, reset the rough openings with new sill pans, and installed CWS impact-rated units with fire-resistant flashing detail. The homeowners got quieter, tighter windows before the next wet season and a cleaner path for wildfire ember resistance at the openings.
CWS Models & Products We Service in Lompico
We service the CWS Series 2000 and 2100 single-hung and slider vinyl windows, the Series 7000 and 7100 impact-rated aluminum windows, the Estate and Classic vinyl sliding glass doors, and CWS custom aluminum impact sliding doors. Our parts approach is simple: OEM CWS replacement rollers, weatherstripping, glass units, and hardware when the manufacturer’s supply chain cooperates. When OEM parts are delayed, we use quality aftermarket components and tell you exactly what’s going in. But we don’t push parts into windows that are past their useful life. A 20-year-old CWS window in a Lompico home with a compromised sill pan and old fire-resistant detailing is often better replaced with a modern impact-rated unit. We lean toward replacement when the frame or sill pan is compromised, because in this canyon, drainage and fire hardening matter more than saving a few dollars on a temporary fix.

FAQs – CWS Construction in Lompico
Often no. Lompico’s private roads and steep driveways off Lompico Road frequently can’t handle a standard box truck or flatbed, so we split whole-house CWS window packages into smaller loads for CWS in Brookdale and nearby areas and stage them at the road or at a neighbor’s turn-out. We’ll assess your driveway during the free estimate and plan the sequencing so you’re not surprised on delivery day. Call (833) 725-3508 to schedule that site visit.
It depends on what’s inside the track. For CWS in Ben Lomond and Lompico, we usually find compacted redwood needles and tanoak debris in the Series 2000 tracks, and that’s a repair: we clean, replace the rollers if they’re shot, and verify the sill pan. If the frame shows corrosion at the anchors or the sill pan is rusted through, replacement is the honest call. We’ll show you what we find.
CWS impact-rated aluminum and vinyl products are built to handle wind-driven rain and impact, but in Lompico’s wildland-urban-interface zone, the window has to be installed with fire-hardened flashing and ember-resistant detailing to perform as intended. That’s on the installation, not just the product. We detail the rough opening, sill pan, and flashing so the whole assembly works together.
Dropped needles, bark, and tanoak debris work into CWS vinyl slider tracks and door thresholds throughout the year. After a wet winter, that debris compacts and binds rollers. CWS repair in Felton and Lompico means homeowners should expect more frequent track cleaning and seal inspection than owners in open, flat neighborhoods. We recommend an annual look at weeps and tracks before the rainy season.
Yes. We plan around septic tanks, leach fields, wellheads, and steep grades from the first site visit. Staging smaller loads and using pump trucks where necessary protects your infrastructure while we reset rough openings and install CWS in Mount Hermon and Lompico units. We don’t drive equipment over your leach field, and we don’t lay materials on your wellhead. That’s part of working in Lompico. Call (833) 725-3508 for an exact estimate.
