AfterWindows & Doors Services in Lighthouse Point, FL
If you live in Lighthouse Point, you already know the two forces working against your home’s windows and doors: salt air that never lets up, and a building code that treats every opening as a potential breach point in a hurricane. That combination means the wrong window isn’t just inefficient. It’s a liability. Winslow Windows & Doors handles both problems from the first phone call to the final inspection. We install impact-rated products built for marine environments, and a real person answers when you call (844) 901-4551, any hour, any day.
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is on the door, and every job we do. We’re not a subcontractor network or a call center routing tickets to whoever’s available. When you schedule with us, the crew that shows up in Lighthouse Point works for Winslow, has passed a background check, and arrives in uniform. You’ll know who’s at your door before the truck stops.

Why Lighthouse Point Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Lighthouse Point is a small city, barely over two square miles, and word travels fast here. Homeowners along the finger canals near Sample Road and the streets around Dan Witt Park talk to each other. They know which contractors show up on time, which ones honor their pricing, and which ones vanish when a callback is needed. We’ve built our reputation in this community on being the company that answers the phone and stands behind the work.
Every quote we write for Lighthouse Point includes a line item for marine-grade hardware. That’s not an upsell. It’s the baseline. Because we know that a canal-front home near the Intracoastal will corrode standard aluminum hardware faster than the warranty period lasts. We also know that Broward County sits inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every window and door we install must carry a Miami-Dade or Broward Notice of Acceptance. Big-box product lines often don’t qualify. Our lines do.
You’ll find our work throughout the 33064 zip code, from the waterfront estates along Lighthouse Drive to the quiet cul-de-sacs west of Federal Highway. We’re a local company, not a franchise. Ed’s name is on the business, and the promise is simple: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s the Done Right Promise, and it outlasts any warranty a national chain will hand you.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Lighthouse Point
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship line for Lighthouse Point homes. We install laminated impact glass from PGT and CGI, each configuration carrying the Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval required for your specific opening. Design pressures are matched to the opening, never a generic rating slapped on a window that doesn’t fit the wind load.

Window Installation
New windows in Lighthouse Point have to handle two jobs at once: standing up to hurricane wind loads and surviving constant salt spray. We install units with proper flashing and marine-grade fasteners, pulling permits where required and passing inspection before we call the job complete.

Window Replacement
Many of the original mid-century CBS ranch homes in Lighthouse Point still have single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows from the 1950s and 1960s. Those frames are decades past their service life in a marine environment. Replacing them with modern impact units changes how the house feels, and how it survives a storm.

Door Installation
Front doors, side doors, and service entrances all face the same salt air and wind pressure as your windows. We install Therma-Tru and CWS doors with proper threshold flashing and corrosion-resistant hardware so the door operates smoothly for years, not months.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Canal-facing homes in Lighthouse Point are often renovated around oversized sliding glass doors that open the rear wall to the water. We install multi-panel sliders and folding systems rated for HVHZ wind loads, with stainless steel rollers and tracks that don’t bind up from salt exposure.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Impact windows do double duty here. The laminated glass and low-E coatings cut solar heat gain, which helps with cooling bills during long South Florida summers. Homeowners typically see a 20 to 30 percent reduction in cooling costs after replacing single-pane units.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the largest opening in the house, and a failed one can let wind pressure blow out the roof. We install impact-rated garage doors engineered for the HVHZ, with reinforced tracks and hardware that meet code.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Mid-century homes in Lighthouse Point often have unusual window shapes, arches, or transom configurations. We handle custom and geometric windows with the same NOA compliance as standard rectangles, fabricated to your opening’s exact design pressure.
Roof Repair
Roofs in Lighthouse Point take a beating from wind and salt spray. We repair leaks, replace damaged shingles or tiles, and fix flashing issues before they become water intrusion problems.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in a marine environment means choosing materials that resist corrosion and uplift. We install shingle, tile, and metal roofing systems with proper underlayment and secondary water barriers for the HVHZ.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Each roofing material has a different lifespan and wind rating here. We walk through the options with you based on your home’s exposure and budget, and we pull permits and pass inspections on every job.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Lighthouse Point
We work throughout Lighthouse Point, from the waterfront properties along the Hillsboro Inlet to the inland blocks near Frank McDonough Park. Our crews are familiar with the specific access and setback issues in each part of town.

Why Lighthouse Point’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lighthouse Point is built on a network of finger canals that connect almost every residential lot to the Intracoastal Waterway. That’s beautiful, and it’s also a corrosion factory. Salt air here is more aggressive and more constant than in inland Broward communities like Coconut Creek or even Pompano Beach. Standard aluminum window frames can pit and fail within five to seven years without proper anodizing or thermal-break construction. Homeowners who have watched powder-coated frames bubble or hardware seize up know exactly what we’re talking about.
On top of that, the housing stock is almost entirely mid-century CBS ranch construction, much of it from the 1950s through the 1970s. We regularly replace original jalousie windows and single-pane sliders that have been letting in salt air and humidity for sixty years. When homeowners renovate, they’re frequently opening canal-facing rear walls with multi-panel sliders or folding glass systems, and those need HVHZ-rated frames and stainless hardware from day one. Specifying marine-grade stainless steel hardware and high-quality anodized or painted aluminum frames is the starting point on every Lighthouse Point estimate, not an upsell. Cut corners on finish grade and a callback for salt-air failure is a near certainty.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Lighthouse Point
Impact window installation in Lighthouse Point typically runs from $1,100 to $2,800 per opening, depending on size, design pressure, and frame finish. A standard impact sliding glass door usually lands between $4,500 and $9,000. Entry doors start around $2,200. Impact garage doors run $3,500 to $8,500 installed.
Several permanent offers reduce the cost before you sign: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge inside Broward County, and a 10 percent discount for seniors and veterans. All pricing is upfront and line-itemed. No change orders that balloon after work starts.
Florida Pays Lighthouse Point Homeowners Back
The state and federal incentives for impact upgrades are substantial, and they stack with insurance savings. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30 percent of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75 to $150), many Lighthouse Point homeowners see windstorm premium credits averaging around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of their policy. Final numbers depend on your carrier and your home’s inspection results, so we won’t quote a savings figure until the inspection is done. But the direction is clear: impact windows in this city pay for themselves faster than almost anywhere else in Florida.
One thing worth deciding early: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters cost less upfront, but you’re committing to hauling panels out of storage and wrestling them onto openings before every storm, in the dark, when the wind is already picking up. Impact windows are permanent protection. You close the door and you’re done. In a mandatory evacuation zone, that matters.

What Lighthouse Point Customers Say
"The installation was clean and the windows are beautiful. The factory took about six weeks to deliver the units, which Ed told me upfront, but living behind plywood-framed openings in the meantime still tested my patience."
— Guadalupe Zamorano"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."
