What Impact Windows Costs in Hollywood

Here are the numbers we quote most often in Hollywood, based on the homes and condos we actually see here:

• Standard impact window (single opening): $800–$1,500 installed
• Impact single-hung (common in 1950s–1970s CBS homes): $900–$1,800
• Large or custom openings (picture windows, corner units, second-floor beachfront): $2,500–$5,000
• Whole-home packages (5–25+ openings): $8,000–$25,000+

What moves the price in Hollywood specifically? Opening count, first. Then floor height: a second-story window on a barrier-island condo off A1A needs a crane or lift and heavier anchors than a ground-floor window off Hollywood Boulevard. The biggest factor in this city is the HVHZ code itself. Every window we install in Hollywood must carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance approval, and that product standard costs more than what neighboring Broward cities require. You’re not paying for a sticker. You’re paying for a window tested to survive a 9-pound 2×4 fired at 34 mph. The free in-home measure and written quote we give you will line-item every opening, the NOA numbers, and the labor. No allowance games. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule it.

No Surprises on the Invoice

We build a masonry-cutting allowance into every Hollywood contract that involves jalousie removal or reframing. If we open your wall and find the wood bucks are undersized or rotted, you’ll see a written change order with the exact cost before we touch it. You approve it in writing, or we don’t do it. That’s how Ed runs every job. Upfront pricing, not a vague “we’ll see what we find.”

Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Impact Windows Company

Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is on the door and on every job we do. That’s the difference between us and a faceless installer who hands you a ticket number. When a Hollywood homeowner calls about a jalousie window that won’t close before a storm watch, they talk to a person who knows what a jalousie window is and why it’s in their 1962 CBS wall in the first place.

Our Hollywood customers leave reviews that mention the same things: the crew showed up when they said they would, the quote matched the invoice, and the inspection passed the first time. We don’t chase volume. We chase the standard of work that lets Ed sleep at night. That’s not marketing language. That’s an owner-operated business.

Response time to Hollywood? We coordinate dispatch locally from our South Florida office, and the truck that pulls up will have a background-checked, uniformed technician. You’ll know who’s at your door before you open it. And when you call at 2 a.m. with a window that’s not seating square and a storm named something you can’t pronounce, a live human answers the phone. Not a voicemail loop.

Our Impact Windows Services in Hollywood

Jalousie-to-Impact Window Replacement with CBS Masonry Cutting

Hollywood’s 33020 and 33021 neighborhoods still hold hundreds of original jalousie windows. The louvered glass slats look nostalgic, but they provide zero hurricane protection and cannot legally remain after a permitted renovation under current HVHZ code. Pulling them out means cutting into concrete block structure, and that’s where we earn our stripes. We open the masonry carefully, reframe within the existing rough opening, and set a Miami-Dade NOA-rated window that actually seals. Contractors who don’t know CBS lose these bids to us regularly.

Full Tear-Out and Reframing for Damaged Wood Bucks

Here’s what we find all over Hollywood, from 1958 bungalows near Young Circle to 1970s duplexes west of US-1: the wood bucks behind the stucco are undersized, water-damaged, or simply gone. You cannot set a heavyweight impact window onto rotted framing and expect it to pass inspection. We tear out the old buck, install pressure-treated lumber sized for the window, shim it square, and flash it properly. If we don’t fix the buck, the window fails. If we do fix it, the window does its job for decades.

Marine-Grade Stainless Hardware and Sill Pan Replacement

Hollywood’s barrier island in 33019 and the blocks east of US-1 eat aluminum for breakfast. Salt-laden air corrodes window frames, balcony door tracks, and hardware within 5 to 10 years of installation. If your condo quote from another company includes standard zinc fasteners, run. We specify marine-grade stainless fasteners and sill pans on every coastal Hollywood job because we know the air here makes anything less a future service call. The same applies to the houses on the mainland closer to the intracoastal.

Impact Single-Hung and Casement Replacements for 1950s–1970s CBS Homes

Hollywood’s central and eastern ZIPs are packed with mid-century concrete block homes originally fitted with single-pane aluminum-frame windows. Replacing them with PGT or CGI single-hungs or casements is the most common job we do in this city. The existing rough openings are narrow, which means careful masonry work and a window spec’d for the exact opening size, not a handyman’s “close enough” caulk-and-shim job. We size every window to the opening and the wind zone, and we pull the permit every single time.

This is Impact Windows work done the way Hollywood’s HVHZ code demands. No shortcuts, no substitutions, no surprises on the invoice.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood

We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, which means Hollywood homeowners can get factory-backed impact windows without waiting weeks for a parts order from some out-of-state warehouse. PGT’s WinGuard and CGI’s Sentinel lines are the workhorses we install most on Hollywood’s CBS homes and beachfront condos, because both carry Miami-Dade NOA approval across multiple configurations. When your existing impact window needs a hardware swap or a sash replacement, we stock common local parts and can often turn around repairs faster than a manufacturer-direct claim.

Common Impact Windows Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

• Jalousie windows that are code-non-compliant and leaking air. These louvered slats were standard in South Florida’s postwar CBS builds, and Hollywood’s 33020 and 33021 still have them everywhere. The glass slats never seal, the crank mechanisms fail, and they offer no hurricane protection at all. Removal and replacement with a NOA-rated impact window is the single most recurring job in this market.
• Salt-corroded frames and hardware on coastal properties. From the barrier island in 33019 to the homes just west of the intracoastal, aluminum window frames and track hardware corrode fast. We routinely see sashes that won’t seat square because the jamb is swollen with corrosion. Marine-grade finishes and stainless fasteners aren’t an upgrade here. They’re the floor.
• Rotting wood bucks hidden behind stucco. On a 1962 CBS home off Hollywood Boulevard, our crew pulled three original jalousie windows and found undersized wood bucks hidden behind the stucco. That’s not a rare find. It’s the norm in homes built before 1992. We build a masonry-cutting and buck-replacement allowance into every Hollywood contract because of it.
• Aging impact windows with failing seals and hardware from early 2000s builds. Western Hollywood’s 33027 and 33029 master-planned communities are now 20 to 30 years old. The original impact windows may still be intact, but door thresholds, sill pans, and frame seals are beginning to fail. Water intrusion at the sill is the tell. We replace the failed components before the water reaches the framing.

Local Knowledge That Only Helps in Hollywood

Hollywood sits entirely within Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, a designation shared only with Miami-Dade County. What that means on the ground: every window and door replacement in this city, whether it’s a 1958 CBS bungalow near Young Circle or a beachfront tower on A1A, must carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance approval. That’s a product standard far stricter than what most of Florida requires, and stricter than neighboring Broward cities. A window that’s legal in Davie is not necessarily legal here. We spec every Hollywood window for HVHZ compliance and large-missile impact rating, because in this city there is no other option.

This also means the surprises that show up when you open a Hollywood wall are different from other cities. Jalousie removal reveals corroded or undersized wood bucks. A salt-corroded sill pan behind a condo’s impact window won’t let the new sash seat square. And opening up a wall on a 1950s–1970s CBS house often triggers an electrical permit once outdated wiring is exposed, adding a code-required panel upgrade that most quotes never mention. We mention it in the estimate. That’s the difference between a quote and a real plan.

Pricing for Impact Windows in Hollywood, FL

Florida Pays You Back

There are real state and federal incentives that offset the cost of impact windows in Hollywood. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors. Florida waives sales tax on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit can return up to $600 per year on qualifying energy-efficient units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection (which typically costs $75 to $150), many Hollywood homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. We don’t promise a specific credit, because your insurer sets the final number. But the inspection is cheap, and the documentation we provide after installation gives you what you need to file.

One comparison worth making: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters protect your house only if someone is home to close them, and they do nothing for daily security or energy bills. Impact windows are permanent protection that works every hour of every day. For Hollywood homeowners in the HVHZ, a NOA-rated impact window is the upgrade that solves storm protection, break-in resistance, and UV heat gain in a single installation.
