Vinyl Windows

Vinyl windows are one of the most popular options for Florida window replacement due to their exceptional durability and low maintenance. Made from high-quality PVC materials, they resist corrosion, warping, and termites, issues common in humid coastal environments. Vinyl frames also provide excellent thermal insulation and air sealing, helping reduce cooling costs by up to 20–30% annually, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Storm Windows

Storm windows provide an extra protective barrier against Florida’s intense weather, including hurricanes and heavy rains. Installed over existing windows, they enhance structural integrity, reduce air leakage, and boost energy efficiency. The insulating air pocket minimizes heat transfer, improving indoor comfort and lowering cooling costs while preserving the main window’s lifespan.

Hurricane Impact Windows

Engineered for maximum protection, hurricane impact replacement windows are built with laminated, shatter-resistant glass and heavy-duty aluminum or vinyl frames. These windows meet Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA) and ASTM E1886/E1996 impact standards, meaning they can withstand sustained wind speeds exceeding 150 mph and resist debris impacts.

Energy-Efficient Windows

Our energy-efficient Florida window replacements are designed to maintain a comfortable indoor climate year-round while lowering energy costs. Using Low-E (low-emissivity) glass coatings, argon gas fills, and multi-chambered frames, they minimize heat transfer and solar gain. Many of our models are ENERGY STAR® certified, potentially qualifying homeowners for federal tax credits under the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (up to $600 per year).

Custom Windows

No two homes are the same, which is why we offer fully customizable window designs. Choose from a variety of shapes, grid patterns, frame finishes, and glass options to perfectly match your home’s architecture. Each custom window is precision-engineered using advanced CAD technology for a perfect fit and seamless installation.

What Is Better Single-Hung or Double-Hung Windows?

Single-Hung Windows

A classic and economical option, single-hung replacement windows feature a fixed upper sash and a movable lower sash that slides vertically. Their tight seal design improves air infiltration ratings and makes them an excellent choice for energy conservation. They’re also ideal for ground-floor installations where easy exterior access isn’t required.

Double-Hung Windows

Double-hung windows are popular for their superior ventilation control and ease of cleaning; both sashes tilt inward for maintenance. With dual weatherstripping and interlocking meeting rails, they provide outstanding insulation and water resistance.

Our Window Replacement Process

1. In-Home Consultation and Assessment

Our process begins with a detailed consultation at your home. Our certified window specialist evaluates your current windows for energy efficiency, structural integrity, air leakage, and code compliance. Using advanced measurement tools, we record exact dimensions and assess exposure to coastal conditions, UV radiation, and wind zones. This allows us to recommend the best window type based on your home’s needs and budget.

2. Product Selection and Custom Design

Next, we help you choose from top-rated brands offering a variety of styles, frame materials, glass options, and finishes. Each window is custom-manufactured to your home’s specifications using precision fabrication.

3. Professional Measurement Verification

Before installation, a field supervisor conducts a final measurement verification to ensure exact fit and accuracy. This step eliminates costly errors and prevents air or water infiltration. All measurements are double-checked against factory specifications to confirm proper tolerances for expansion and contraction under Florida’s heat and humidity.

4. Removal of Old Windows

Our licensed window replacement installers carefully remove existing windows using industry-standard safety procedures to prevent damage to walls, frames, and surrounding finishes. During this step, the opening is inspected for hidden water damage, rot, or structural weaknesses, which are repaired before the new installation.

5. Expert Installation

Installation is performed by factory-trained, certified technicians using precision alignment and fastening techniques that meet or exceed ASTM E2112 (Standard Practice for Installation of Exterior Windows). We use corrosion-resistant screws, waterproof flashing tapes, expanding foam insulation, and high-performance sealants to ensure a watertight, airtight fit.

6. Final Inspection and Quality Assurance

Every project concludes with a comprehensive quality inspection. The site supervisor verifies smooth window operation, lock functionality, weather sealing, and aesthetic finish. The installation isn’t complete until you’re fully satisfied with the look, function, and finish of your new windows.
