We're a repair-first company — it says so all over this site — but some windows are genuinely done: insulated units fogged white with failed seals, frames corroded past saving, single panes that today's hurricane code won't let us put back. When that's the honest verdict, we replace the window properly: correctly measured, correctly flashed, and with product that meets South Florida's toughest-in-the-nation standards.
Replacement here isn't like replacement anywhere else. Broward and Miami-Dade sit in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, where new and replacement windows must be impact-rated, and Palm Beach County carries its own strict requirements. That's not red tape to dodge — it's what keeps a window in its opening at 150 mph. We guide you through product selection honestly, handle the details that make an installation weather-tight for decades, and never push replacement where a repair would serve you better. The confidence to recommend repair is exactly what makes our replacement advice trustworthy.
When replacement is the right call
- Permanent fog or moisture between the panes — the insulated seal has failed
- Frames that are corroded, rotted, or racked out of square
- Single-pane or non-impact glass you want upgraded for storm protection
- Storm damage beyond economical repair
- Windows that leak around the frame (not the sash) in wind-driven rain
- An energy bill that climbs every summer through inefficient old glass
What window replacement includes
- An honest repair-vs-replace verdict before anything is sold
- Exact measurement and impact-rated product selection for your opening and zone
- Straight guidance on HVHZ code requirements — what's required, what's optional
- Removal of the old unit and correct prep of the opening
- Weather-tight installation: flashed, shimmed square, sealed and insulated
- Finish work, operation test, and a clean job site when we leave
