Lighthouse Point is not like inland Broward. Nearly every lot sits on or within yards of salt water tied to the Intracoastal, and the entire city falls inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That means the windows we install here have to survive salt spray every single day and a Category 5 wind event on the worst day. We’ve been doing exactly that since 2011, and we know the 33064 zip code block by block. When you call, a live person answers. Not a call center. Not a voicemail loop.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lighthouse Point’s Preferred Window Installation Company
We’re the locally owned, owner-operated alternative to faceless chains. Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and he still answers the phone. Our published address and license number are right there for anyone to check. That level of transparency matters in a city like Lighthouse Point, where homeowners have been burned before by vague estimates and no-show crews.
Every technician who arrives at a Lighthouse Point home is background-checked and in uniform. You’ll know exactly who is at your door before the truck pulls up. Our Window Installation team has worked on CBS ranches, modern canal-front rebuilds, and everything in between across the city. We stock marine-grade stainless hardware and high-quality anodized aluminum frames specifically because we know what the salt air on the finger canals does to standard components. A callback on a salt-air failure is a near certainty if corners get cut on finish grade. We don’t cut them.
And if something isn’t done right, our Done Right Promise means we make it right. Not for a year. Not for a decade. For as long as you own the home. That’s the standard a national chain can’t match, and it’s the standard Ed puts his name behind on every Lighthouse Point job.
Our Window Installation Services in Lighthouse Point
Casement Windows
Casement windows are the workhorse of Lighthouse Point canal-front homes. They seal tight against wind-driven rain, and because they crank outward, they catch the coastal breeze and pull it through the house. On a 1960s CBS ranch on a finger canal, a properly flashed casement with Miami-Dade NOA approval is often the single best upgrade we can make. We install PGT and CGI casements regularly here, matched with stainless hardware because zinc hardware on a salt-air opening fails within two seasons.

Awning & Hopper Windows
Awning windows hinge at the top and open outward, which makes them ideal for Lighthouse Point homes where you want ventilation even during a passing storm. Hopper windows hinge at the bottom and work well in small openings like bathrooms and utility rooms. Both styles benefit from the same marine-grade baseline: anodized frames, stainless operators, and impact glazing that meets Broward County HVHZ requirements. We measure every opening, match design pressure to the wind zone, and install with proper flashing so the salt air never finds a way in.

3-Panel Sliding (3-Lite Roller) Windows
Canal-facing rear walls in Lighthouse Point were built for water views, and a 3-panel sliding window is one of the most popular ways to open them up. These units span wide openings and let you move glass out of the way without the swing clearance a casement needs. On Intracoastal-facing homes on Sample Road or the finger canals off it, we regularly specify oversized 3-lite rollers with heavy-duty marine-grade track systems. Standard aluminum track corrodes and binds within five years here. It’s a salt-air reality we plan for from day one.

Single & Double Hung Windows
Single and double hung windows remain the classic choice for the mid-century CBS ranches that dominate Lighthouse Point’s housing stock. Double hungs tilt in for easy cleaning, which matters when salt film builds up on glass weekly. We install single and double hungs from PGT, CGI, and CWS with impact-rated laminated glass and frames finished for marine exposure. A single-hung impact window in Lighthouse Point typically runs $900–$1,800 installed, depending on size and opening condition.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lighthouse Point
We’re an authorized installer for elite brands that actually hold Miami-Dade and Broward Notice of Acceptance approvals: PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows among them. That matters in Lighthouse Point because a window without an NOA won’t pass permit inspection, period. We stock local parts for these product lines so turnaround is fast once your units arrive, and our installers know the lite markings inspectors look for. No substitutions. No surprises on the invoice. When you call (844) 901-4551, we’ll walk you through which product line fits your opening, your wind zone, and your budget.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Lighthouse Point Homes
- Corroded jalousie frames on original 1950s-1970s CBS homes. Many of these openings are still running their original single-pane aluminum windows. The salt air from the finger canals pits the frames and seizes the hardware, and by the time we’re called, the jambs often crumble during removal.
- Big-box impact windows that lack a Miami-Dade or Broward NOA. The inspector checks the lite markings, and if the unit doesn’t carry an NOA, the permit fails and the remodel stalls. We see this on Lighthouse Point jobs where a homeowner or a handyman bought product before pulling a permit.
- Undersized or rotted CBS window openings discovered only after tear-out. HVHZ anchor requirements demand more framing than a 1960s opening was built with. Without a contract allowance for reframing, this becomes a cost dispute mid-job. We write allowances into every contract.
- Zinc or low-grade stainless hardware on canal-front homes. Standard screws and operators seize and snap within two seasons of constant salt spray. Marine-grade stainless is the starting point on every Lighthouse Point estimate, not an upsell.
What Window Installation Costs in Lighthouse Point
Here are real numbers for the Lighthouse Point market. Impact windows generally run $800–$1,500 per window installed. A single-hung impact unit runs $900–$1,800. Large or custom openings, like a 3-panel slider spanning a canal view, land between $2,500 and $5,000. Whole-home packages on a typical three-bedroom CBS ranch run $8,000–$25,000 or more, driven by opening count, frame material, glazing, and how much reframing the existing openings need.
What moves the price in Lighthouse Point specifically? Opening count is the big one. Floor height matters, too: second-story openings on canal-front homes face more wind exposure and need higher design pressures. Frame material changes the number: marine-grade anodized aluminum costs more than standard extruded, but it’s the baseline for a city this close to salt water. We give free in-home measures and written line-item quotes for every job. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll come out, measure every opening, and put the real number in writing.
Florida Pays You Back
Lighthouse Point homeowners can stack several incentives on an impact window job. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which saves real money on a whole-home package. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75–$150), most homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. The final numbers come from your insurer and the program administrators, not us, but the stack is real. Impact windows versus hurricane shutters is the comparison we walk through most often in Lighthouse Point: permanent protection, no panels to drag out of the garage at midnight before a storm, and the credits apply either way.
The Reality of Opening Up an Older Lighthouse Point Home
Lighthouse Point sits within Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every replacement window or door must carry a Miami-Dade or Broward Notice of Acceptance. That one requirement eliminates most big-box product lines before we even talk pricing. It also means the framing behind your existing windows has to meet HVHZ anchor standards, not whatever was considered acceptable when the house was poured in 1963.
Here’s what actually happens when you open up a 1960s Lighthouse Point CBS ranch. We recently did a full window replacement on Sample Road near the Intracoastal. The original jalousie frames had corroded so badly the jambs crumbled when we pulled them. Hidden wiring from the original build forced an unplanned electrical repair. Because our contract included an allowance for framing and code upgrades, we documented the deteriorated sill plates, priced the rot repair and impact-rated PGT casements with Miami-Dade NOA, and got written approval before touching a single stud. That’s the difference between a remodel that stays on budget and one that spirals into disputes.
We handle it the same way on every Lighthouse Point job: inspection first, allowances written into the contract, and any surprise priced and approved in writing before we do the work. No change orders that show up after the fact. No debates about who pays for rotted framing. The number we quote is the number you approve, and if the opening reveals something we didn’t expect, you see the price in writing before we proceed.

FAQs — Window Installation in Lighthouse Point
Because Broward County’s HVHZ requirements mean every replacement window must carry a Miami-Dade or Broward Notice of Acceptance, and most big-box product lines don’t have one. The inspector checks the lite markings during the permit inspection, and a unit without an NOA fails on the spot. That stalls your permit, your install, and your insurance credit. We only install NOA-approved product from PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free measure and we’ll spec the right product the first time.
Usually rotted sill plates, undersized framing that predates HVHZ anchor requirements, and sometimes original wiring run through the same cavity. Salt air from the canals accelerates corrosion on the framing hardware, and jalousie frames from the original build often crumble during removal. We document it, price it in writing, and get your approval before proceeding. Allowances written into the contract protect you from surprise costs.
Every contract we write includes an allowance for framing and code upgrades, because we know Lighthouse Point’s housing stock well enough to expect surprises. When we find rotted framing or hidden wiring, we document it, price it, and put the number in front of you in writing before we touch anything. No work happens without your signed approval. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through how allowances work on your specific home.
Yes. Impact glazing blocks a significant portion of solar heat gain, and on a Lighthouse Point canal-front home where afternoon sun reflects off the water, that reduction is real. Low-E coatings in PGT and CGI product lines cut the heat entering through glass while still letting the light through. The federal 25C credit gives you up to $600 per year back on qualifying units. We’ll spec glazing for your orientation and your canal exposure during the free measure.
In most cases, yes, but the final credit comes from your carrier after a wind-mitigation inspection. A licensed inspector verifies the NOA markings and the opening protection coverage, and most Lighthouse Point homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion. The inspection runs $75–$150, and the credit lasts as long as the windows are in place. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll help you understand what to ask your insurer before you commit.
