Windows and doors in Lauderhill don’t just face Florida weather. They face Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone code, insurance underwriters who now flag jalousie windows by address, and a housing stock that’s mostly 1960s CBS construction with original openings that predate every impact standard on the books. Ed Winslow has been navigating those exact conditions for homeowners here since the company opened in 2011. When you call us, a live person picks up at (904) 747-8989, and we’ll talk through what your home actually needs, not what a national chain needs to sell you this quarter.
We know Lauderhill’s streets, its inspector habits, and what it takes to pull a permit that clears review the first time. Most of our estimates inside Broward County carry no trip charge, and every quote is fixed upfront. If you’re scanning this page from a kitchen chair because you just opened a non-renewal notice from your insurance carrier, you’re not alone, and we can explain your options in plain English, starting with a free assessment of what you have now.

Why Lauderhill Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Our strongest advertising in Lauderhill is the same thing it’s been since 2011: a truck with Winslow on the door pulling up to a house where the neighbor already watched us do the place two streets over. We work in Inverrary, where the 1970s CBS homes are thick with original jalousie units and hollow-core front doors. We work in West Ken Lark, where aluminum frames from the Johnson administration are pitting and oxidizing in the humid inland air faster than homeowners expect.
Ed’s name is on the business, and Ed’s crews show up in uniform, background-checked, with a published license number and a shop address you can actually visit. That’s not just marketing copy. It’s the reason a homeowner in St. George or Broward Estates can call us at 2 a.m. after a storm and hear a human voice instead of a voicemail tree. The 36500-Day Done Right Promise means if the installation isn’t done right, we come back and make it right. No ticket numbers. No reassigned “dedicated team.” Just accountability that outlives the warranty paperwork.
We install impact windows and doors from PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru, among eight authorized brands. We’re not a box store’s subcontractor. You’ll get a fixed, upfront price from the company that does the work, and if you have a written estimate from another contractor, bring it to us for a free second opinion.
Key takeaways:
- Locally owned and owner-operated since 2011, with a published address and license number
- Live person answers every call, 24/7, including weekends and after storms
- $40 off any repair over $200, free second opinions on written estimates, no trip charge inside Broward County, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans
- Authorized PGT, CGI, CWS, and Therma-Tru installer with Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Product Approval compliance per configuration
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Lauderhill
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship of our Lauderhill work. Laminated impact glass, Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval per configuration, and design pressures matched to each opening are standard here. We never spec a unit above a +/-100 PSF rating because in Lauderhill’s HVHZ, matching the opening matters more than overselling a number.

Window Installation
Installation in Lauderhill’s CBS homes is about more than swapping glass. When the opening is original to 1965, we measure the true rough opening, address any concrete spalling around the frame, and set the new unit so it actually meets wind load for that wall. Our crews handle full-frame jobs on original openings every week.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Lauderhill.
Window Replacement
In Lauderhill, replacement almost always means full-frame work, because jalousie frames and modern impact units don’t share a mounting system. We remove the old louvered frame, prep the concrete opening, and install a sealed, code-compliant unit that your insurance carrier will actually accept. Inserts rarely work here, and we’ll tell you that honestly rather than sell you a shortcut.
Learn more about our Window Replacement in Lauderhill.
Door Installation
A 1970s hollow-core front door is the weakest point on a Lauderhill home’s wind envelope, and it’s also where we see the most wood rot and threshold decay from inland humidity. We install impact-rated entry, French, and utility doors that hold up to Broward County code and to the afternoon thunderstorms that blow through off the Everglades.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Sliding glass doors from the original build are almost never impact-rated, and in Lauderhill, they’re often the largest unprotected opening on the house. We replace them with impact-rated sliders from authorized brands, sized to the opening and matched for water infiltration and design pressure. Proper roller and track alignment gets the same attention as the glass itself.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-efficient glazing does double duty in inland Broward. Low-E coatings and insulated frames are what actually lower your cooling load during the long Lauderhill summer, and the same sealed construction that meets HVHZ also stops the moist air that causes interior condensation. Homeowners typically see a 20-30% reduction in cooling costs, not because of a sales brochure, but because the physics of the coating works.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors catch wind from the street differently than windows, and a 1960s non-rated door can buckle inward under negative pressure and take your roof with it. We install impact-rated garage doors, matched to the wall system, and we replace tracks and spring assemblies to carry the rated load. This is an HVHZ requirement with real structural stakes.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Lauderhill’s older homes have windows that don’t come from a standard catalog: eyebrow arches, trapezoids, angled corners. We fabricate custom and geometric impact units to the exact opening, including odd sizes that national chains won’t touch because they can’t order them from a drop-down menu.
Roof Repair
Winslow is a full exterior-protection company, and roof repair often walks in the door alongside window work. In Lauderhill, a compromised fascia or lifted shingle at the eave sends water straight toward your window and door flashings. We repair and replace roofs with the same accountability we bring to every opening.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Your roof is the first line of your home’s exterior envelope, and in an HVHZ city, it has to work with the windows and doors, not against them. We do complete replacements and new installations, including the flashing details that keep water out of the wall system under driving rain.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
From asphalt shingle to concrete tile to standing seam, we install roof systems that stand up to inland Broward’s storm pattern and hold their fastening under HVHZ uplift. When a roof and window project happen together, we coordinate the flashing so neither one compromises the other.

Why Lauderhill’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lauderhill sits entirely inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which imposes the strictest window and door product-approval standards in the country, stricter than what Palm Beach County requires just north of the county line. That code reality collides with a housing stock built mostly between 1959 and 1975, when jalousie windows were popular because they moved air cheaply and nobody thought about windborne debris. Today, those original louvered windows are actively disqualifying homeowners from affordable insurance coverage. Carriers and adjusters have started flagging jalousie units by address during policy renewals, which means many of the calls we take in Lauderhill aren’t coming from storm damage. They’re coming from non-renewal notices.
Inland Broward’s humidity accelerates the process. Afternoon thunderstorms push moist air against aluminum frames, causing oxidation and pitting faster than homeowners in drier climates ever see. Wood thresholds and entry door jambs rot from the bottom up. In an HVHZ, even a hairline frame crack or a compromised seal can cause a unit to fail inspection, because the product-approval standard applies to the installed unit, not just the glass. That’s the practical reason full-frame replacement, not insert work, is the standard fix for most Lauderhill homes. Jalousie frames simply aren’t compatible with modern impact units.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Lauderhill
Honest pricing in Lauderhill varies by opening count, concrete condition, and what your existing frame will or won’t accept. Here’s what we see on typical jobs:
- Impact window replacement (full frame, per opening): $750 - $1,400 installed, depending on size and design pressure
- Impact sliding glass door: $2,800 - $5,500 installed
- Impact entry door (single): $1,600 - $3,200 installed
- Impact garage door: $2,500 - $6,000 installed, depending on face type and track work
- Jalousie-to-impact conversion (full frame, multiple openings): $6,000 - $18,000 project range on a typical 1960s CBS home
Every quote is fixed before we start. No change orders because we didn’t measure the opening correctly the first time. We also honor $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans. Call (904) 747-8989 for a free estimate that tells you exactly where you stand.
Florida Pays Lauderhill Homeowners Back
If you’re replacing windows or doors in Lauderhill this year, there are incentives worth checking before you write the check. My Safe Florida Home offers matching grants of up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and impact windows and doors are the upgrades that make the biggest difference on a wind-mitigation inspection. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit pays up to 30% of product cost, capped at $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. And once your home passes a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75-$150 in Broward County), windstorm premium credits average around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy.
Those are averages and program figures, not guarantees. The final numbers come from your carrier and the state, not from us. What we can do is install units that qualify for the inspection, with the documentation you need to submit. A lot of Lauderhill homeowners recover a meaningful share of their project cost through this combination. We’ll point you to the programs. We won’t pad the invoice because they exist.
One more thing on the comparison that comes up in every kitchen-table conversation: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters only protect you if someone is home to deploy them, physically able to lift each panel, and remembers to do it before the wind arrives. Ride out a storm in a house with unprotected glass and you’ll wish you’d made a different choice. Impact windows live in the opening and do their job year-round. We don’t sell or install shutters. We install permanent protection, and we stand behind it with the 36500-Day Done Right Promise.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Lauderhill
Replacing jalousie windows with impact units in Lauderhill typically runs $750-$1,400 per opening for full-frame work on a CBS home, with total project costs ranging from $6,000 to $18,000 depending on how many openings and what size. The jalousie conversion requires full-frame replacement every time. Call (904) 747-8989 for a free estimate on your specific openings.
Non-renewal notices tied to unreplaced jalousie windows are now common in Lauderhill, and we’ve seen carriers flag these units by address during renewals. Impact-rated replacement is the most direct fix, and after a wind-mitigation inspection, many homeowners see windstorm premium credits that offset part of the cost. We’ll install units that qualify for the inspection and give you the documentation for your carrier.
Once your custom-fabricated units arrive, installation on a typical Lauderhill CBS home can be completed as fast as a single day for smaller jobs, with larger whole-house replacements taking several days. Fabrication on custom-size impact units typically runs 4-6 weeks before installation. We’ll give you a firm schedule before we order anything.
Yes. Lauderhill’s HVHZ designation means window and door replacements almost always require permits and inspections, and we handle the permit application, the inspection scheduling, and the paperwork that follows. We don’t leave you to manage the city’s review process alone. A passed inspection is the standard, not a favor.
Often yes, but in Lauderhill’s HVHZ, a compromised seal or frame crack can cause the whole unit to fail the required product-approval standard.

Call (904) 747-8989 and we’ll tell you straight.

What Lauderhill Customers Say
"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."
- Henrietta Pemberton"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."
