Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lighthouse Point’s Preferred Window Replacement Company

We’ve been the Window Replacement company Lighthouse Point homeowners call when canal-front salt air has eaten through a set of aluminum frames and the big-box installer says “that’s not covered.” Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is on the door, meaning every callback lands on his desk, not a corporate ticket queue. Calls are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, every day. When a hurricane watch goes up and you need to know your openings are sealed, you’ll reach a human being who knows your street.

Our technicians arrive in uniform, background-checked, and carrying the brand certifications that matter in Broward County. We’re authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. More importantly, our local reputation in Lighthouse Point is built on a simple promise: upfront pricing, written line-item quotes, and a Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No fine print, no expiration date.

Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami (South FL) office, but the crews you’ll see on Sample Road, in the Venetian Isles section, or along the canals off NE 23rd Avenue are local to this market. They know what a CBS wall looks like when it’s hiding a rotted wood buck behind the stucco. That knowledge changes the quality of the estimate you get.

Our Window Replacement Services in Lighthouse Point

Full Frame Replacement

Full frame replacement means removing the old window down to the rough opening, including the frame, trim, and any rotted or corroded material hiding beneath. On a 1960s CBS ranch in Lighthouse Point, that’s not a rare scenario, it’s the norm. Salt-laden moisture wicks behind stucco and quietly destroys wood bucks and steel lintels for decades before anyone notices. We inspect the opening, write a line-item allowance for reframing and waterproofing into the contract before demo, and get any permit-triggered structural upgrade priced and approved in writing before cutting a single opening. Most full-frame jobs in Lighthouse Point run $900 to $1,800 per opening depending on size and wind-zone engineering.

Insert Window Replacement

An insert, or pocket replacement, fits a new window into the existing frame and is the right call when the framing is still sound and the opening is square. It costs less, installs faster, and disturbs less trim. But here’s what we tell Lighthouse Point homeowners straight: on canal-front lots with five-to-seven-year corrosion cycles on standard aluminum, the existing frame is often too far gone to reuse. We’ll tell you if an insert will genuinely hold up, or if you’re paying for a short-term fix. Insert replacements in Lighthouse Point typically run $800 to $1,500 per window for impact-rated units.

Vinyl Replacement Windows

Vinyl makes sense for inland Broward homes, but Lighthouse Point is a different animal. Salt air, constant humidity, and HVHZ wind codes mean most off-the-shelf vinyl windows without a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance are disqualified before the first permit review. If vinyl is right for your job, we’ll specify it with marine-grade hardware and proper thermal-break construction. If it’s not, we’ll say so. That’s the difference between a licensed impact specialist and a retail counter.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade

Replacing single-pane aluminum or original jalousie windows with Low-E insulated glass units cuts solar heat gain substantially, which matters when your AC is fighting the Florida sun from March through November. Lighthouse Point homeowners upgrading their canal-facing rear walls with impact-rated casements or oversized sliding glass doors often see their cooling loads drop measurably in the first summer. We’ll spec glass packages matched to your elevation exposure, not a generic brochure.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lighthouse Point

We install and service products from PGT, CGI, CWS, and ViewLux, among the eight authorized lines we carry. What that means practically for Lighthouse Point: when a hurricane is forming in the Atlantic and you need a replacement sash or hardware, we’ve got local parts access and the relationships to get units fabricated on schedule, not “sometime next quarter.” Impact-rated, energy-certified, done right the first time, or we come back. That’s the standard on every job in the 33064.

Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Lighthouse Point Homes

• Jalousie windows seized from salt corrosion. The crank mechanisms on old jalousies fail fast in canal-front air, and when they seize, an insert usually won’t work. You’re looking at a full-frame replacement, which is actually the better long-term fix.
• Frames pitted and corroded within five to seven years. Standard anodized aluminum doesn’t survive constant salt spray. Marine-grade stainless hardware and high-quality finishes are the baseline spec here, not an upsell.
• Failed wind mitigation inspections from non-NOA windows. Big-box vinyl lines without a Miami-Dade or Broward NOA fail Broward’s wind mitigation requirements, which torpedoes your insurance credits and leaves you exposed. We only install products that carry the right NOA for your opening configuration.
• Improper flashing on CBS walls. Replacement windows on concrete block need correct flashing or salt-laden moisture gets behind the stucco, rots the wood buck, and rusts the steel lintel within a few hurricane seasons. We see this on prior contractor work regularly and correct it properly.

Pricing for Window Replacement in Lighthouse Point, FL

What Window Replacement Costs in Lighthouse Point

Let’s put real numbers on it. A typical three-bedroom 1960s CBS ranch on a Lighthouse Point canal with twelve openings: expect $10,000 to $18,000 for full impact-rated replacement, with the final figure depending on whether you’re doing full-frame on every opening or mixing inserts where the framing is still solid. The moment your house sits directly on salt water, marine-grade hardware stops being optional, and that upgrades the per-unit cost meaningfully compared to inland Broward quotes you might see. We’ll also walk you through the permit fees, the wind-mitigation inspection, and any structural allowance your particular house needs before we start. Every quote is free, in home, and written in plain language.

Florida Pays You Back

Window replacement in Lighthouse Point carries real financial offsets, and we want you to know about all of them. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, subject to program funding and eligibility. Florida provides a state sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. And most homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150. Program rules and carrier decisions are theirs to make, so we won’t guarantee a specific dollar amount. We’ll just make sure your installation meets the standards that qualify.

Opening Up a Lighthouse Point Home: What Replacement Actually Turns Up

Here’s the part generic replacement pages skip. When you pull windows out of a mid-century CBS home in Lighthouse Point, you find things. The steel lintel over the opening is undersized for modern impact-rated glass. The wood buck behind the stucco is rotted from thirty years of salt-laden moisture wicking through bad flashing. The waterproofing that worked fine in 1965 is gone. Code triggers upgrades as soon as the permit is pulled, and those upgrades cost money. This is the single biggest reason a window replacement quote moves after demo starts, and we handle it differently: inspection first. Allowances written into the contract. Any surprise priced and approved in writing before we touch it. That’s how Ed Winslow runs this company, and it’s why our Window Replacement in Lighthouse Point customers don’t get hit with change orders after the walls are open.

On a 1960s CBS ranch off Sample Road, our crew pulled original jalousie windows that had seized solid from salt corrosion. Behind the stucco we found undersized steel lintels and rotted wood bucks. We quoted a full-frame replacement with PGT impact-rated casements, wrote a line-item allowance for reframing and waterproofing into the contract before demo, and had the permit-triggered structural upgrades priced and approved in writing before cutting a single opening. The homeowner knew exactly what the job would cost before the first saw started.
