What Our Impact Windows Service Includes
Full Impact Window Installation
This is the core of what we do in Fountainebleau. We remove your existing windows down to the rough opening, inspect the framing for rot or termite damage, install the new impact-rated units with code-compliant fasteners, and then seal, flash, and trim everything so it’s watertight the day we leave. Most single-story homes in Fountainebleau with 10 to 14 openings take us two to three working days. You’ll get a written line-item quote before we start, and the price on that paper is the price you pay, period.
Impact Window Replacement
If your existing impact windows are fogged, cracked, or the laminated glass is delaminating after years of sun exposure, replacement brings back the protection and the curb appeal. We commonly replace failed units in Fountainebleau homes built during the 2000s boom, when some builders used lower-tier glass that doesn’t hold up. We’ll match the new unit to your existing frame style and finish so it doesn’t look like a patch job. Ed personally verifies every measurement before the order goes to the manufacturer.
Door Installation with Impact Rating
Your windows can be bulletproof, but if the front door blows in, the house pressurizes and the roof goes with it. That’s why we install impact-rated entry doors, French doors, and glass-panel doors alongside window work. We install Therma-Tru impact doors with reinforced frames and multi-point locking hardware. A door replacement in Fountainebleau usually takes one day, and we’ll haul away the old unit and dispose of it properly.
Sliding Glass and Patio Door Upgrades
Sliders are the biggest opening in most Fountainebleau homes, and they’re also the most common point of failure in a storm. We replace old aluminum sliders with modern impact-rated units that glide on stainless steel rollers and lock securely at multiple points. We install ECO Window Systems sliding doors that meet Miami-Dade County impact standards. You’ll notice the difference immediately in both security and how much quieter the house feels with a proper seal.

Brands We Service for Impact Windows
We’re an authorized installer for Mr-Glass impact windows, and we’ve put their units in homes throughout Fountainebleau, from the neighborhoods around the Fountainebleau Golf Course down to the blocks near NW 107th Avenue. Their laminated glass holds up well in our salt air and humidity, and we stock their common hardware so repairs don’t wait on a slow supply chain. When a homeowner calls us about a Mr-Glass unit that’s hard to operate or has a fogged pane, we know exactly what we’re looking at before we even arrive.
We also install ECO Window Systems, two brands we trust for their frame strength and clean sightlines. ECO Window Systems makes a robust aluminum frame that resists the corrosion we see near the coast sliders are some of the smoothest operating units on the market today. If you’re not sure what brand you have, or you’ve inherited windows from a previous owner and the labels are gone, we can identify them on site. We service all major impact-rated brands regardless of who originally installed them.
Signs You Need Impact Windows Right Now
- You can hear the wind whistle through closed windows. That means your weatherstripping is shot and the frame has likely shifted. In Fountainebleau’s summer thunderstorm season, water follows that same path and you’ll find it in your drywall or flooring within a year.
- Your current windows are single-pane or have a thin aluminum frame. These were the standard in South Florida construction before the 1994 code changes after Hurricane Andrew. A single-pane window offers almost zero debris protection and fails instantly under the kind of wind loads we get in a Cat 3 storm.
- You see condensation or fog between the glass panes. That’s a failed seal. The insulating gas has escaped, your energy bills are climbing, and the glass is now doing nothing for impact resistance or thermal performance. Once a seal fails, the whole unit needs replacement.
- Your windows are hard to open, close, or lock. This is more than an annoyance. A window that won’t lock is a window that won’t hold in a storm. It’s also an invitation to anyone who wants to test your home’s security. If you have to fight a window to close it, the frame is warped or the balance system is failing.
- Your homeowner’s insurance company is pushing back on your policy. Many insurers now require impact-rated openings or full hurricane shutters to renew a policy in Fountainebleau. If you’ve gotten a nonrenewal notice or a rate spike, impact windows are the permanent solution that also lowers your wind mitigation credits.
Our Impact Windows Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free On-Site Assessment. Ed Winslow or one of our senior installers walks your Fountainebleau home with you, opening by opening. We measure every rough opening precisely, check the current framing condition, and discuss what you want the finished product to look like. You’ll get honest guidance on whether you need full replacements or targeted upgrades.
- 2
Written Line-Item Quote. We hand you a detailed estimate that breaks out materials, labor, and any structural work. No allowances without explanation, no vague “miscellaneous” line items. The number we quote is the number you’ll see on the final invoice unless you change the scope.
- 3
Permit and Engineering. Impact window installation in Fountainebleau requires a permit and passed inspections. We handle the permit application, submit the product approvals for your chosen windows, and coordinate with the building department. You never have to chase down paperwork.
- 4
Installation Day. Our background-checked, uniformed crew arrives at the scheduled time. We protect your floors with drop cloths, contain dust with zip walls, and work opening by opening so your home is never completely exposed. For a typical 12-opening home, we’re in and out in three days.
- 5
Inspection and Final Walkthrough. We schedule the county inspection, walk the job with you after it passes, and show you how to operate and maintain your new windows. Then Ed files your warranty registration and wind mitigation documents so you can send them to your insurer for your premium credit.
How Much Does Impact Windows Cost in Fountainebleau?
A typical impact window replacement in Fountainebleau runs $850 to $1,350 per window for standard sizes, with larger openings like picture windows or custom geometric units pushing $2,000 to $4,000 each. A full 12-opening home replacement lands between $18,000 and $32,000 on average. Sliding glass door upgrades add $4,500 to $8,000 per unit. These are real ranges based on the jobs we’ve completed in Fountainebleau over the last 14 years, not national averages.
What changes the price: the size and style of each window, the frame material (aluminum vs. vinyl), the glass package you choose, and whether the existing framing needs repair. Homes built before the 1994 code update often need sill replacement or reframing around rotted wood. How to avoid overpaying: get a line-item quote so you can see exactly where your money goes, ask about lower-cost alternatives if your quote comes in high, and never agree to a price over the phone without a physical inspection. Our free estimates include all measurements, product recommendations, and a written quote you can keep whether or not you hire us.
