Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is West Palm Beach’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
We’ve been replacing windows and doors in West Palm Beach long enough to know the difference between a 1962 CBS ranch in Southland Park and a 1926 Spanish Revival in El Cid. The code requirements differ. The preservation board rules differ. The salt-air corrosion patterns differ. Dale Kessler founded this company on a rule that still governs every install we do in West Palm Beach: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
West Palm Beach homeowners call us because we quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, and back every job with the Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No paperwork fights. No arguing. We’re an authorized installer for, and PGT, so the warranty conversation is about fact, not salesmanship.

Our Window Replacement Services in West Palm Beach
Most West Palm Beach homes need one of four scopes of work. We’ll tell you which one fits your house after measuring the openings and looking at your existing frames. Here’s what each involves in this city specifically.
Full Frame Replacement
When the original 1950s or 1960s aluminum frame is pitted, oxidized, or out of square, we pull the entire assembly down to the rough opening and set a new impact-rated unit with new flashing. This is the most common scope we perform in the CBS neighborhoods west of I-95 and throughout the South End. Full frame replacement in West Palm Beach runs $1,100 to $2,800 per opening for a mid-range impact product, installed and permitted.
Insert Window Replacement
If the existing frame is square and structurally sound, we can install a new impact-rated sash inside it. This is common in West Palm Beach homes that already have relatively modern frames but failed a wind-mitigation inspection or need the laminated glass for insurance compliance. Inserts run $800 to $1,600 per opening in West Palm Beach and typically take one to two days for a full house.
Storm Window Replacement
For homes in Flamingo Park, El Cid, and other historic districts where the preservation board restricts exterior appearance, storm windows are sometimes the only path that satisfies both the board and the building department. We fabricate or source impact-rated storm units that match the original sightlines on 1920s and 1930s wood double-hungs. This is specialty work, priced per project after the board review, but most historic storm window replacements in West Palm Beach run $900 to $2,200 per opening.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
West Palm Beach’s cooling season runs most of the year, and homes with original single-pane aluminum lose a staggering amount of conditioned air through the window assembly. Low-E insulated glass units with argon fill and a warm-edge spacer cut heat gain measurably. For a typical CBS ranch in West Palm Beach, swapping to energy-efficient impact windows drops the window-related cooling load enough that the FPL bill changes within the first two billing cycles. Budget $850 to $1,900 per opening for an energy-efficient impact unit in West Palm Beach.
For a deeper look at the full scope of what we do, our Window Replacement team covers everything from single-sash swaps to whole-home retrofits.

Trusted Brands We Service in West Palm Beach
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we quote them side by side so you see exactly what you’re buying. In West Palm Beach we install a lot of CGI and PGT impact products, both of which carry Florida Product Approval for Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region. For historic work in El Cid and Flamingo Park, we often spec ES Windows because their aluminum-clad wood profiles hold the original sightlines the preservation boards require. We also service and replace Andersen, Marvin, and Milgard units across West Palm Beach, from Northwood Hills to the South End.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in West Palm Beach Homes
- Insurance non-renewals on original jalousie windows. The 1950s through 1970s CBS stock in West Palm Beach still carries original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows by the thousands. Carriers are canceling policies or applying windstorm surcharges, which forces a replacement decision faster than any aesthetic concern ever would.
- Non-impact units installed in a wind-borne debris region. Palm Beach County requires impact-rated products or approved shutters on replacement windows. We’ve pulled out brand-new builder-grade units that never should have gone in, because they failed the permit inspection and left the homeowner with a code violation and a denied wind claim.
- Salt-air oxidation east of I-95. Homes within blocks of the Lake Worth Lagoon eat standard aluminum frames alive. Hardware seizes, frames pit, and the window binds within a few years. We spec marine-grade coatings or fiberglass frames on anything east of Dixie Highway.
- Historic district stop-work orders. In El Cid, Flamingo Park, and Old Northwood, the preservation board reviews every replacement. Off-the-shelf impact units that don’t match the original profiles get flagged, and the job stops until the right product is submitted. We handle the board paperwork before the first window comes out.
Pricing for Window Replacement in West Palm Beach, FL
Here’s a straight answer for West Palm Beach specifically. A typical full frame impact window replacement runs $1,100 to $2,800 per opening. Inserts run $800 to $1,600 per opening. Historic storm windows run $900 to $2,200 per opening. An energy-efficient impact upgrade runs $850 to $1,900 per opening. A whole-house project on a 1960s CBS ranch with 14 to 18 openings will land somewhere between $16,000 and $38,000, depending on product line, frame condition, and whether the home sits in a historic district.
What moves the number: the product line you choose, whether we’re pulling full frames or doing inserts, whether the home is east of I-95 and needs marine-grade frames, and whether a preservation board is involved. We quote every job on paper, side by side, with both warranty durations stated. Call (754) 238-2201 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a written line-item quote with no change orders later.

FAQs - Window Replacement in West Palm Beach
West Palm Beach sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region under the Florida Building Code, which means any replacement window must either be impact-rated with Florida Product Approval or protected by an approved shutter system. Most West Palm Beach homeowners choose impact windows because shutters only work when someone is home to deploy them, and they do nothing for the daily energy loss or the salt-air corrosion on original frames. Impact windows also qualify for wind mitigation discounts on your insurance policy. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll walk you through your specific opening sizes and what the permit reviewer will accept.
Palm Beach County carriers are aggressively re-underwriting policies on the city’s large stock of 1950s to 1970s CBS homes still fitted with original jalousie and single-pane aluminum windows. They’ve seen the windstorm loss data and they’re either non-renewing or applying heavy surcharges until the windows are replaced with impact-rated units. The proof they want is the signed Florida Product Approval documentation plus the final permit inspection report. We provide both, in writing, before the truck leaves your driveway. If you’ve already received a non-renewal notice, call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll tell you exactly what the carrier needs from the replacement.
No. Flamingo Park and El Cid are locally designated historic districts, and the preservation board reviews every window replacement for compatibility with the original architecture. Off-the-shelf impact units rarely match the sightlines, muntin profiles, and frame proportions of the original 1920s and 1930s wood double-hungs. The board will issue a stop-work order, and you’ll sit with open rough openings until the right product is submitted. The workaround is retrofitting laminated impact glass into custom-fabricated or aluminum-clad wood frames that preserve the original appearance while meeting the code. We handle that scope regularly and we submit the board paperwork as part of the permit package. Call (754) 238-2201 before you buy anything, because a wrong purchase in a historic district is an expensive mistake.
Florida Product Approval is the statewide certification that a window or door product has been tested and approved for use in specific wind zones. West Palm Beach sits outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward, so products here need Florida Product Approval rather than the stricter Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. Your permit reviewer in West Palm Beach will check that the approved product number on our paperwork matches the unit we install, and the final inspection closes that loop. A cheap quote that omits this paperwork leaves you with a code violation and a denied wind claim if a storm ever tests the glass. We register the approval documentation with both warranty layers before we leave the job.
Impact windows hold up well near the Lake Worth Lagoon if the frames are specified correctly. The problem is the frame, not the glass. Standard builder-grade aluminum will oxidize and seize within a few years in the salt air east of I-95, which includes much of the older residential core near Flagler Drive and the Intracoastal. We spec marine-grade anodized or powder-coated aluminum, or fiberglass frames, for anything within blocks of the water. On a 1963 CBS ranch in the Southland Park neighborhood off Parker Avenue, we pulled out original jalousie windows and installed Simonton StormBreaker Plus impact-rated double-hungs with laminated low-E insulated glass units. The homeowner’s carrier had sent a non-renewal notice, and our signed Florida Product Approval documentation plus the final inspection report got the policy reinstated at a lower premium than the surcharge they were facing. That’s the job done right.
For an exact quote on your West Palm Beach windows, call (754) 238-2201 and ask for a free estimate. We’ll measure every opening, quote the product lines side by side on paper, and tell you exactly what the permit, the code, and the insurance carrier require. A square deal, in writing.
