If your electric bill spikes every August or your jalousie windows rattle when a thunderstorm rolls through, you’re not alone. Most of the homes in Andover’s 33023 ZIP were built between the 1950s and 1970s, and many still have their original single-pane aluminum sliders or louvered glass. Those openings leak air, drive up cooling costs, and simply don’t meet today’s hurricane code. We’re Winslow Windows & Doors, and our crews work in Andover regularly. Call (844) 901-4551 and a real person answers, day or night.

Why Andover Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and built it on a simple rule: his name goes on every job, so every job gets done right. That matters in a neighborhood like Andover, where homeowners have been burned by vague estimates and no-show crews. We run background-checked, uniformed technicians on every visit, and we publish our address and license number so you know exactly who you’re dealing with.
We’ve worked throughout the neighborhoods off SW 184th Avenue and near McTyre Park, replacing rotted frames, sagging doors, and outdated glass. Andover homeowners tell us they appreciate two things most: a live person answers the phone 24/7, and our written quotes are line-by-line specific. No vague allowances. No surprise change orders. We back every installation with our Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. That’s a lasting standard, and it’s in writing.
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, among others. That means you get manufacturer-backed products, installed by a local crew who knows what Andover’s wind zone requires.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Andover
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship of what we do in Andover. Laminated glass with a polymer interlayer holds together under flying debris, and every configuration carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or Florida Product Approval. That’s the same standard applied to high-rise buildings on the coast, not a watered-down substitute.

Window Installation
Rough openings in Andover’s concrete block homes are rarely standard by modern measurements. We measure every opening before ordering, then install with design pressures matched to the specific hole in the wall. No forcing a one-size-fits-all unit into a 1962 CBS ranch.

Window Replacement
Frame-and-glass combo replacements are more common here than glass-only swaps. Andover sits 6 to 8 miles inland from the Atlantic, and that salt-laden air accelerates corrosion on aluminum frames within 10 to 15 years. We replace the whole assembly when needed, not just the pane.

Door Installation
Entry doors, side doors, and rear doors all get the same scrutiny. We check for rot at the threshold, proper shimming, and weatherstripping that actually seals against South Florida humidity. Most Andover homes need Andover Door Installation more urgently than the homeowner realizes.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free door estimate.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Andover Sliding Glass & Patio Doors take a beating from sun, salt, and daily use. We install impact-rated sliders that roll smoothly and seal tight, and we repair track and roller issues when replacement isn’t necessary. If yours sticks or whistles, don’t wait.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free patio door estimate.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Andover’s intense UV exposure degrades glazing seals faster than in any northern Florida market. Energy-Efficient Windows in Andover with low-E coatings and insulated frames cut cooling demand by 20 to 30 percent in our experience, and they qualify for the federal 25C tax credit.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free energy window estimate.
Impact Garage Doors
A garage door that buckles under hurricane pressure can blow out your entire roofline. Impact-rated garage doors carry wind-load ratings for Andover’s HVHZ requirements, and they’re reinforced against windborne debris. We install them to spec.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free garage door estimate.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Arches, circles, trapezoids, and angled glass all make appearances in Andover’s mid-century ranch homes. Custom units require precise templating and longer fabrication lead times, but the result is a perfect fit in the original opening. We handle the templating and the install.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free custom window estimate.
Roof Repair
Backing up our windows-and-doors work is a full roofing division. Leaks around chimneys, valleys, and pipe boots account for most Andover roof repairs, especially after summer storms. We inspect, patch, and document everything.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free roof repair estimate.
Roof Replacement & Installation
When a roof reaches the end of its service life, we replace it. Andover’s older concrete block homes often have low-slope or flat sections that require careful membrane work. We pull permits, pass inspections, and stand behind the finished job.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free roof replacement estimate.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
We install all three systems, and we’ll tell you honestly which makes sense for your Andover home rather than pushing the most expensive option. Tile suits many mid-century ranch styles, metal handles wind well, and shingle remains the most cost-effective choice for most budgets.
No separate service page needed. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free roofing material estimate.
Andover’s HVHZ Reality: What It Means for Your Home
Andover sits within Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-code designation in the state. Every window and door replacement, even a single unit, must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or Florida Product Approval. There is no grandfathering for old jalousie windows. If you replace a louvered original, the new unit has to meet HVHZ impact standards, no exceptions.
The dominant job we see in Andover is a full impact-rated replacement on a 1950s to 1970s CBS ranch home. Insurers are non-renewing or surcharging policies on homes without fully impact-rated openings, so homeowners find themselves under a deadline they never asked for. We understand that pressure, and we work through it with you. The 33023 housing stock was built well with concrete block, but the window openings are non-standard by modern measurements and frequently require custom-sized impact units or masonry modification. We handle both.
Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters in Andover
Shutters do work, as long as someone is home to deploy them before a storm hits. But Andover homeowners often tell us they’re tired of hauling steel panels out of the shed every June. Impact windows protect permanently. There’s nothing to hang, nothing to store, nothing to forget while you’re at work and a storm forms off the coast. They also block UV, cut noise by up to 40 percent, and reduce cooling load year-round. Shutters don’t do any of that. For most Andover homeowners, the math favors impact glass.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Andover
Our crews work throughout Andover, from the streets off SW 184th Avenue down to the neighborhoods near McTyre Park, across the 33023 ZIP and the bordering blocks. Typical response time for an estimate visit is within 48 hours, and urgent issues move faster.

Why Andover’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Andover’s distance from the ocean doesn’t spare it from salt. The prevailing Atlantic air carries enough salt to etch aluminum frames and pit hardware within a decade, even six miles inland. Combined with South Florida’s UV intensity and persistent humidity, window seals and door weatherstripping degrade here faster than almost anywhere else in the state. That’s why we recommend full frame-and-glass replacement on most Andover homes rather than glass-only retrofits. The frame is usually as tired as the glass.
Those mid-century concrete block ranch homes also present a specific challenge: non-standard rough openings. When a 1968 slider finally fails, the replacement rarely drops into the same hole. We measure, template, and order custom-sized impact units that fit the original masonry opening without butchery or oversized trim. It’s slower than a box-store off-the-shelf install, but it’s the only way to meet Andover’s HVHZ code properly.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Andover
Impact window pricing in Andover depends on size, opening configuration, and design pressure rating. Here’s what homeowners typically see:
- Impact window replacement per opening: $1,800–$4,200 installed
- Impact sliding glass door: $4,500–$9,000 installed
- Impact entry door, full assembly: $3,000–$6,800 installed
- Impact garage door, wind-rated: $4,200–$8,500 installed
- Non-impact window replacement, energy-efficient: $900–$1,800 per opening
Custom fabrication runs 4 to 6 weeks, and installation itself can be as fast as a single day once your units arrive. We offer standing discounts: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge for Andover, and a permanent 10 percent discount for seniors and veterans. Call (844) 901-4551 for a line-item quote.
Florida Pays Andover Homeowners Back
If you make hurricane-mitigation upgrades, the state may help cover the cost. The My Safe Florida Home program has matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation improvements, and impact-rated windows and doors count. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which knocks a meaningful chunk off your invoice. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit returns up to $600 per year on qualifying energy-efficient units, and after a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75 to $150), many carriers reduce the windstorm portion of your premium by around 25 percent. These are real programs with real paperwork. We’ll point you to the right resources, but final numbers come from the programs and your carrier.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Andover
Under Broward County’s HVHZ code, any new or replacement window in Andover must meet impact standards regardless of whether you have shutters. Shutters may satisfy your insurer in the short term, but impact windows provide permanent, always-on protection without requiring anyone to be home to deploy panels. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through the code requirements for your specific address.
Once your custom units arrive from the fabricator, installation can be as fast as a single day for a typical home. Fabrication itself runs 4 to 6 weeks for most configurations, sometimes longer for custom geometric shapes. We’ll give you a written timeline before you sign anything, and we honor it.
Most windstorm carriers reduce the windstorm portion of your premium by around 25 percent after a wind-mitigation inspection confirms impact-rated openings. But the final figure belongs to your carrier, not to us. We’ll provide the documentation your insurer needs, and we recommend scheduling a wind-mitigation inspection right after installation.
Slightly different question than most folks intend. Jalousie windows cannot be replaced like-for-like under current HVHZ code, because louvered glass offers virtually no wind resistance. Any replacement must meet Miami-Dade NOA impact standards. We can, however, match the visual scale and placement of the original openings with modern impact units, preserving your home’s mid-century character.
Most Andover homes run $1,800 to $4,200 per impact window installed, depending on size, design pressure, and opening condition. Concrete block openings from the 1960s often need masonry modification, which can add to the total. Call (844) 901-4551 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.

What Andover Customers Say
"The old aluminium sliders howled every afternoon storm and swelter came straight through the glass. The new impact sliders shut with a sound like a bank vault and the back rooms finally hold their temperature."
— Percival Whitcombe"Ed measured every opening himself and walked me through the product approval paperwork before I signed anything. When the inspector came he found the notice of acceptance taped inside a window like it should be and passed us first visit."
— Rosalind Beaumont"He replaced the front door and the garage door in the same week, both rated for impact, and lined the frames up so straight my level had nothing to say. My wife stopped hearing the highway from the front room."
