Why Sunset Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Winslow isn’t a franchise. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do. Since 2011, we’ve built our reputation in South Florida one street at a time, and Sunset’s 33173 ZIP has become one of our most familiar service areas. We know these homes: concrete-block construction, flat tile roofs, jalousies on the older streets west of SW 87th Avenue, single-pane aluminum sliders on the townhomes near Kendall Drive. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7. Not a call center. Not a ticket number. A person who knows this neighborhood.
Every Winslow technician is background-checked and arrives in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before the truck stops. We’re state-licensed, insured and bonded, with a published address and license number, and we install eight authorized impact brands including PGT, CGI, and CWS. Around Sunset Drive, Galloway Road, and the neighborhoods behind Tropical Park, that’s what homeowners have come to expect from us.

Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
The old aluminum sliders in Sunset townhomes and ranches leak air year-round and won’t survive a Category 3. Sunset Sliding Glass & Patio Doors change that, and they operate just as easily as what you have now.
Learn more about our Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Sunset.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in Sunset with Low-E glass and argon fills cut cooling costs meaningfully in the subtropical heat. Homeowners typically see 20-30% reductions on cooling after replacing single-pane units.

Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the largest opening in most Sunset homes, and a failed one lets wind pressure into the whole structure. We install Impact Garage Doors — Sunset engineered for Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.
Learn more about our Impact Garage Doors in Sunset.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Arched, radius, trapezoid, or hexagon openings need custom fabrication. We build them to NOA specs and match the exact shape of your existing rough opening. Fabrication takes four to six weeks, and installation can be as fast as a single day once units arrive.
Learn more about our Custom & Geometric Windows in Sunset.

Why Sunset’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Sunset sits inside Miami-Dade County, which enforces the strictest hurricane-product approval system in the country. Every window and door installed here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA), a standard that goes beyond what the Florida Building Code demands in Broward County suburbs just a few miles north. That’s not a suggestion, and it’s not a marketing line. Your permit gets rejected without it. Winslow handles NOA documentation on every opening, matched to the exact design pressure your wall requires.
The housing stock here makes this work especially specific. Sunset’s 33173 ZIP is dominated by concrete-block-and-stucco ranch homes built roughly between the mid-1960s and mid-1980s, with scatterings of 1970s-to-1990s townhomes. The vast majority of these homes still run original single-pane aluminum frames or louvered jalousie windows. Jalousies are a mid-century South Florida staple and they’re everywhere on Sunset’s older streets. They provide effectively zero hurricane resistance, they leak conditioned air constantly, and they cannot receive a Miami-Dade NOA at all. A contractor who can explain that three-part problem at the door is the one who earns the job. That’s the conversation we have on Sunset porches every week.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Sunset
Here’s what honest numbers look like in this market. Single impact window replacement in Sunset typically runs $900 to $1,800 per opening installed, depending on size and design pressure. A standard impact entry door runs $3,000 to $6,000. Impact sliding glass doors start around $4,500 and go up with width and finish. Full-home replacement on a typical three-bedroom ranch, 10 to 14 openings, lands between $28,000 and $55,000 before any incentives. Every Winslow quote is line-item, fixed, and includes permits and NOA paperwork. No change orders, no unexpected add-ons.

Florida Pays Sunset Homeowners Back
If you’re replacing windows or doors in Sunset, you’re likely leaving money on the table by not stacking these programs. My Safe Florida Home offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, starting with the required inspection. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax entirely. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying efficient units. And once your wind-mitigation inspection is complete, which costs $75 to $150, most Sunset homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Programs and carriers set final numbers, and Winslow can’t guarantee the exact amount, but we’ll walk you through every application and inspection step.
One comparison worth making before you decide: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters sit in your garage eleven months a year, then you wrestle panels onto every opening while the storm approaches. Impact windows protect your home permanently. No panels. No prep. No ladder in the wind. For Sunset homeowners planning to stay, one install solves the problem for the life of the house.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Sunset
Yes. Sunset is in Miami-Dade County, which operates as a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Any permitted window or door project must use products carrying a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for the specific opening size and design pressure. Broward County, a few miles north, allows some shutter-and-glass combinations that Miami-Dade does not. If your installer doesn’t mention NOA, they’re not local. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll show you the paperwork before we quote.
Most Sunset ranch homes with 10 to 14 openings run $28,000 to $55,000 before incentives. Variables include opening sizes, design pressures, and whether you choose PGT, CGI, or another authorized line. Every Winslow quote is line-item and fixed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free estimate.
Yes, and it’s the most common job we do in Sunset’s older ranch-home neighborhoods. Jalousies cannot receive a Miami-Dade NOA, so they must be replaced, not retrofitted. We match the rough opening to a properly rated fixed or casement impact unit and handle the permit. It’s a bigger change than a simple glass swap, but it’s the only code-compliant path.
No. Winslow quotes are fixed. We document every opening, pull permits before work begins, and if we find something unexpected behind the wall, we show you and price it separately before touching it. That’s the Done Right Promise in practice. Call (844) 901-4551 for a written, line-item estimate.
Once your units arrive, most full-home replacements go in as fast as a single day. Custom or geometric windows run four to six weeks in fabrication before install. Permitting through Miami-Dade typically adds two to three weeks, and we handle that end-to-end. Call (844) 901-4551 for a realistic timeline on your specific home.

What Sunset Customers Say
"A tile roof repair and new windows from the same company meant one crew, one permit runner, and nobody blaming the other trade. Ed checked the roof work himself before the tarp came off."
— Henrietta Pemberton"Our insurance agent asked for the wind mitigation paperwork and Ed had the whole file ready the day the job closed, every opening photographed. The premium conversation went very differently this year."
— Odessa Fairbanks"Three big companies quoted us and every one sent a salesman with a leased truck. Ed turned up in a truck with his own name on the door, quoted less, and his crew were the same faces on day one and day nine."
— Yolanda Betancourt
