AfterWindows & Doors Services in Lighthouse Point, FL
If you live in Lighthouse Point, you already know the two things every home here wrestles with: salt air and hurricane codes. Run your finger along an original aluminum window frame on a canal street and you’ll feel the pitting. That corrosion isn’t cosmetic – it’s eating the seal, the track, the latch. And when you file for a permit to replace it, the city’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules kick in, which means the new unit has to carry a Broward/HVHZ product approval, not just a generic Florida stamp. We work inside those rules every week. Call (904) 893-3309 and you’ll get a live person who knows Lighthouse Point, not a call center.
Winslow Windows & Doors has been installing impact-rated windows, doors, and roofing since 2011. Ed Winslow’s name is on the business and on every job we do. We’re not a franchise that swaps out crews by ZIP code. When you call us about a jalousie window on NE 31st Avenue or a sliding glass door on a canal off Lighthouse Drive, the person answering understands what that house is up against.

Why Lighthouse Point Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Most of our Lighthouse Point work starts with a conversation, not a sales pitch. Someone pulls a permit for a kitchen renovation and discovers their original jalousie windows no longer pass. Or a homeowner near the Intracoastal notices condensation trapped between glass panes and realizes the sealed unit has failed. Or a new buyer in the 33064 ZIP is told by their insurer they have 90 days to replace non-impact glazing or lose windstorm coverage. Those are the calls we get.
We serve the neighborhoods around Deerfield Beach to the north and Pompano Beach to the south, including communities around NE 23rd Avenue, along the canal fingers west of US-1, and the residential streets east of Federal Highway. When a Lighthouse Point homeowner calls, they’re talking to our team directly. We answer live, every day, every hour. No voicemail loop, no ticket number.
Every technician we send into Lighthouse Point is background-checked and uniformed. You’ll know exactly who’s at your door before the truck stops. And our 36500-Day Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right, we make it right. That’s the standard Ed built the company on.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Lighthouse Point
Our home page gives you the full picture of who we are, but here’s what matters for Lighthouse Point specifically: we handle the entire exterior envelope of your home, with impact protection as the backbone.
Impact Windows
Lighthouse Point sits inside Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means impact windows here aren’t an upgrade. They’re the code baseline. We install laminated impact glass from PGT and CGI, each unit carrying the Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA documentation required for Lighthouse Point permits. Design pressures are matched to each opening, and we never quote a rating above +/-100 PSF just to pad a number.

Window Installation
Whether you’re replacing one rotted frame or doing the whole house, we install to the opening’s exact dimensions and wind-load requirements. Lighthouse Point’s older ranch homes have non-standard opening sizes, which means we measure, fabricate, and fit rather than forcing an off-the-shelf unit into place.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Lighthouse Point.
Window Replacement
Most of the homes we work on in Lighthouse Point were built between the mid-1950s and early 1970s, and plenty still have their original single-pane aluminum frames. Those units predate modern impact requirements by decades and are often corroded far enough that replacement is the only sane option. We’ll pull the old unit, prep the opening, and install something that actually holds up.

Door Installation
Front entry doors, side doors, French doors: a Lighthouse Point Door Installation takes a beating from salt air and direct sun. We install Therma-Tru and other authorized brands with proper weatherstripping, thresholds, and impact-rated glass where the opening requires it.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Canal-side homes in Lighthouse Point live through their sliders. A sliding glass door facing the water catches wind, salt spray, and sun every day of the year. We install Lighthouse Point Sliding Glass & Patio Doors from PGT and CGI that operate smoothly and seal tightly, even after years of salt exposure.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Impact glazing and energy performance aren’t competing priorities. Energy-Efficient Windows - Lighthouse Point with Low-E coatings and insulated frames cut cooling loads by roughly 20 to 30 percent in this climate, and when paired with impact glass, you get protection and lower FPL bills in the same unit.
Impact Garage Doors
A garage door is the largest opening on most Lighthouse Point homes, and a non-impact door that buckles during a storm pressurizes the house and blows the roof. We install Impact Garage Doors - Lighthouse Point rated for HVHZ wind loads, matched to the same design pressures as your windows.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Lighthouse Point has its share of mid-century ranch homes with angled bays, eyebrow arches, and trapezoid openings. We fabricate custom and geometric shapes in impact glass so you don’t have to board over a beautiful window or settle for a squared-off replacement.
Roof Repair
Windows and doors don’t live alone. A failed flashing or lifted shingle on a Lighthouse Point roof lets water track down to the window headers and door frames. We repair roofs as part of the same exterior-protection picture.
Roof Replacement & Installation
When water has already found the framing, a full roof replacement is the repair. We install shingle, tile, and metal roofing systems in Lighthouse Point with secondary water barriers and HVHZ-compliant attachments.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Each roofing material has a different profile and weight load, and Lighthouse Point’s wind zone doesn’t treat them equally. We’ll walk you through which system fits your roof structure, your budget, and your insurance carrier’s requirements.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Lighthouse Point
We work throughout the city, from the canal-front streets to the interior blocks. Here are the neighborhoods we’re in most often:
- The canal communities around NE 23rd Avenue and NE 27th Avenue
- Residential streets east of Federal Highway
- The interior blocks near Lighthouse Drive and NE 33rd Street
- Waterfront homes off the Intracoastal Waterway
Typical response time inside Lighthouse Point is same-day or next-day once we’ve talked through the job by phone.
Why Lighthouse Point’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lighthouse Point’s roughly 50 miles of interior canals connect directly to the Intracoastal Waterway. That means salt air isn’t just a waterfront problem here; it’s ambient across the city. Aluminum frames that would last 40 years inland start showing pitting and oxidation in half that time. Silicone seals break down, weep holes clog with salt crust, and insulated glass units fog from failed seals. We routinely see multi-pane units on Lighthouse Point homes lose their seal within 10 to 15 years of installation, sometimes less on canal-front properties.
The other piece is the housing stock itself. Lighthouse Point was platted and built out mostly between the mid-1950s and early 1970s. A large share of those homes still have jalousie windows or single-pane aluminum frames, both of which flatly fail current HVHZ wind-load standards. Jalousies in particular offer almost no wind resistance, and they leak air constantly. What surprises many homeowners: these windows were often grandfathered or never permitted in the first place, so the first time they hear about mandatory replacement is when they pull a permit for a bathroom or kitchen renovation. Permit-triggered window upgrades are one of the most common jobs we see in this city.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Lighthouse Point
We give written, line-item quotes. No allowances that balloon later. Here’s where pricing typically falls for Lighthouse Point work:
- Single impact window replacement: $900 to $2,400 depending on size and design pressure

These are real ranges based on jobs we’ve priced in Lighthouse Point, not national averages. Call (904) 893-3309 for an exact quote on your home. Estimates are free, and we don’t charge a trip fee inside our home county.
Florida Pays Lighthouse Point Homeowners Back
There’s real money on the table for Lighthouse Point homeowners who upgrade to impact-rated windows and doors. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and Lighthouse Point’s HVHZ status means most homes here qualify for inspection priority. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which knocks 6 percent off your material cost immediately. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30 percent of qualifying product cost up to $600 per year. And don’t overlook the insurance angle: after a wind-mitigation inspection (which costs $75 to $150), most Lighthouse Point homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by around 25 percent per year, year after year.
No guarantees on final numbers, since programs and carriers set their own rules, but these incentives are real and we’ll point you toward the paperwork.
Impact Windows vs Hurricane Shutters
Some Lighthouse Point homeowners ask whether they should just install shutters instead of replacing windows. Here’s the honest comparison. Shutters cost less up front, but someone has to put them up before every storm, take them down after, and store them in between. If you’re not home when the warning comes, they don’t help you. Impact windows are always in place. They’re the protection that’s working even when you’re asleep. They also never need to be deployed, which matters on Lighthouse Point’s canal-front streets where the wind arrives fast and there’s no inland buffer to slow it down. We don’t sell or install shutters; we install permanent impact protection.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Lighthouse Point
Yes. Lighthouse Point sits entirely within Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every permitted window or door replacement must carry a Broward/HVHZ product approval. A standard Florida Building Code approval alone won’t pass. We install PGT and CGI units with the required NOA and Florida Product Approval documentation for Lighthouse Point permitting. Call (904) 893-3309 before you buy anything off a shelf.
Replacing a jalousie window with a modern impact unit in Lighthouse Point typically runs $900 to $2,400 per opening, with the final number depending on opening size, design pressure, and whether the surrounding frame needs repair after decades of salt-air exposure on the canals. We’ll give you a written quote on the first visit. Estimates are free.
Not necessarily. When you pull a permit for an unrelated renovation, the city may flag non-compliant windows only in the affected area. But many original jalousie or single-pane units across the rest of the house will eventually need replacement anyway; Lighthouse Point’s HVHZ rules mean any opening you touch has to come up to current code. We’ll help you stage the work so it fits your budget. Call (904) 893-3309 to walk through your specific situation.
In most cases, yes. After a wind-mitigation inspection, Lighthouse Point homeowners commonly see their windstorm premium drop by around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of the policy. The inspection costs $75 to $150 and is a one-time expense; the premium credit renews every year. Your insurance carrier sets the final number, and we always recommend confirming with them before you sign.
Once your units arrive, a typical Lighthouse Point installation runs as fast as a single day per opening, depending on the condition of the existing frames. Custom fabrication for non-standard openings, which are common on the city’s mid-century ranch homes, runs 4 to 6 weeks before install. We’ll give you a timeline on the first call. (904) 893-3309.

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"Our insurance agent asked for the wind mitigation paperwork and Ed had the whole file ready the day the job closed, every opening photographed. The premium conversation went very differently this year."
- Odessa Fairbanks"A tile roof repair and new windows from the same company meant one crew, one permit runner, and nobody blaming the other trade. Ed checked the roof work himself before the tarp came off."
