Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Wellington
Window replacement in Wellington typically costs $450-$1,100 per opening for insert replacement and $800-$2,500 per opening for full-frame work, with impact-rated units running higher because of Palm Beach County wind-load requirements. The job is rarely just about glass. In Wellington, it’s about getting the right finish, the right grid, and the right paperwork through your community’s architectural review board before the first pane is pulled. TruePane has been doing this work long enough to know that the real timeline in Wellington starts with the HOA, not the opening.
We’re a team of glaziers led by Dale Kessler, and we’ve been setting windows in South Florida’s master-planned communities since 2008. Our Wellington customers call (754) 238-2201 and talk straight through to a live person. No voicemail tree. No callback form in an inbox nobody checks. Just a person who knows what a Paddock Park architectural review packet looks like and can tell you what to expect before you spend a dollar.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Wellington’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
Wellington homeowners tend to do their homework. They’ve lived in these houses for twenty, thirty years. They remember the last contractor who showed up late, left a mess in the lanai, and disappeared when the frame leaked. That’s why we don’t rush the quote and we don’t skip the details. Every replacement window we put in is measured twice, quoted with manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and covered by our Done Right Promise. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s the rule Dale Kessler keeps on the whiteboard, and it applies to every house we touch in Wellington.
We’ve replaced original aluminum sliders in Olympia, full-frame single-hungs in Versailles, and oversized pool-cage units in Binks Forest. The work differs from street to street because the HOA standards differ from street to street. Our Window Replacement team handles the entire process from sample card to final inspection, so you never end up standing in front of an open wall asking why nobody mentioned the finish requirement. A live person answers every call, day or night, which matters when a summer storm pulls a failed frame loose and you need a straight answer about what happens next.
Our Window Replacement Services in Wellington
Most Wellington homes were built between 1978 and 2005, and a large share of them still carry original builder-grade aluminum frames. After decades of South Florida heat cycling, those frames corrode at the joints and the glazing seals fail. Here’s what we install across Wellington:
Full Frame Replacement
When the entire frame is corroded, twisted, or holding water, pulling the insert out and resetting a new one is not enough. We remove the old frame down to the CBS block, inspect the rough opening for hidden rot or termite damage, flash properly with tape and sealant, and set a new frame that matches Palm Beach County wind-load standards. On a concrete block stucco Wellington home, skipping the flashing tape is how wind-driven rain from a June thunderstorm finds its way into the wall cavity. In Wellington, full-frame replacement on a 1980s or 1990s home runs $800-$2,500 per opening depending on size, impact rating, and finish.

Insert Window Replacement
An insert replacement fits a new window inside the existing frame. It makes sense when the original frame is still square and solid, which happens more often in Wellington’s inland houses than in coastal Palm Beach, where salt spray eats aluminum faster. Typical insert window replacement in Wellington runs $450-$1,100 per opening. The catch in Wellington is rarely the frame. It’s the finish. Many of these insert jobs are held up not by the construction but by the architectural review board, which we handle for you.

Storm Window Replacement
Wellington sits 12-15 miles inland from the Atlantic, which means less salt corrosion but just as much wind-driven rain. From June through October, afternoon convective storms push rain hard against west- and south-facing facades. A storm window in Wellington is not a seasonal add-on. It’s a permanent layer of protection for original windows that may not meet current impact standards. Storm window replacement in Wellington runs $350-$850 per opening, depending on whether the unit is standard laminated or impact-rated.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Many Wellington homeowners are upgrading to impact-rated, low-E, argon-filled units for two reasons: the summer electric bill and the property insurance renewal. Florida’s ongoing insurance crisis has made impact windows one of the few upgrades that can directly reduce premiums. We install impact-rated units from CGI, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, with documentation registered in writing under The Keystone Standard before our truck leaves your driveway. Energy-efficient upgrades in Wellington, including impact-rated installs, run $900-$2,500 per opening for a standard single-family CBS home.

Trusted Brands We Service in Wellington
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Wellington customers that usually means CGI, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems. These are the brands that show up most often in Wellington HOA architectural guidelines because they offer the bronze, white, and champagne anodized finishes that were common in late-1980s and 1990s Wellington communities. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see the price difference, the wind-load rating, and the finish availability all in one place, before you commit. If your Wellington HOA’s sample card is waiting on approval, we coordinate the order so your units arrive only after the board signs off.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- HOA architectural review stalls. In Wellington’s dozens of gated communities – Olympia, Versailles, Binks Forest, Paddock Park – each board maintains its own approved list of frame colors, grid styles, and hardware finishes. Submit the wrong sample card and the job stops for 30-45 days. We file the packet for you and schedule only after approval.
- Corroded original aluminum frames. Wellington’s original builder-grade frames were installed in the 1980s and 1990s. After thirty-plus years, the joints oxidize, the thermal breaks fail, and the frames start to bow. This is the single most common failure mode we see on original single-hung sliders around the equestrian corridor.
- Failed glazing seals and fogged glass. When the seal between two panes breaks, moisture gets in and fogs the glass. In Wellington’s inland heat and humidity, this happens faster than in drier climates, and it cannot be repaired. The unit comes out and a new one goes in.
- Water intrusion at the stucco seam. Wellington’s CBS stucco homes are unforgiving when flashing is done wrong. A full-frame replacement that skips proper flashing tape will show its failure within one rainy season. We see this on homes where a previous contractor cut corners – the stucco looks fine from outside, but the wall cavity is wet.
Pricing for Window Replacement in Wellington, FL
What you pay in Wellington depends on which community you live in, because the HOA’s finish requirements determine the manufacturer line and the price. Insert replacement windows run $450-$1,100 per opening. Full-frame replacements with impact-rated glass run $800-$2,500 per opening. A pool-cage slider like the one we replaced in Paddock Park – oversized, impact-rated, with a specific bronze anodized finish match – lands around $1,800-$2,400 per opening. The HOA review does not add cost on our end; it adds calendar time, which is why we help you file early. Call (754) 238-2201 for an exact written quote. Estimates are free.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Wellington
In most Wellington communities, the architectural review board meets once or twice a month and takes 30-45 days to review and approve a window replacement packet. That means the real timeline for your job starts with your HOA’s published submittal schedule. We pull that schedule, prepare the sample card and finish spec, and file the packet for you so the review period runs at the same time we are ordering your units. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will walk you through the exact timeline for your community.
Yes. We pull the exact finish code from your community’s architectural guidelines and match it through the manufacturer’s paint or anodize line. CGI, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems all carry bronze and white anodized options that cover most Wellington HOA standards from the late 1980s and 1990s. If a discontinued finish is no longer manufactured, we tell you before you spend a dollar and work with you on the closest approved alternative, then file that with the board. Call (754) 238-2201 to get the sample card sorted.
Yes. Wellington is 12-15 miles inland, but Palm Beach County’s design wind speeds still apply here, and Florida building code requires impact-resistant or protected glazing for new window installations regardless of distance from the ocean. Inland Wellington homes do not face the same salt-spray corrosion as Palm Beach, but they absolutely face the same wind-load standards, and most insurance carriers will ask about impact rating when you renew. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will quote your openings both ways so you can see the cost difference.
Fogging between the panes means the glazing seal has failed and moisture is inside the insulated glass unit. It cannot be repaired. The unit must be replaced. This is common in Wellington’s 1980s and 1990s builder-grade windows, which were not designed to survive 30-plus years of Florida heat cycling. If your community requires a specific finish match, we file that spec with your HOA at the same time we order the replacement unit. Call (754) 238-2201 for a written quote on replacement inserts or full-frame units.
Yes. Grid style is a visual overlay, not a performance compromise. We can install an impact-rated, low-E, argon-filled unit with the exact grid pattern your HOA approves, whether it’s colonial, prairie, or no grid at all on the back of the house. The HOA governs aesthetics. The building code governs performance. Both can be satisfied on the same window. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will match your community’s approved grid spec to a unit that still meets wind-load requirements.
