We’re an independent PGT service provider, not a manufacturer affiliate, and we handle repair, restoration, and replacement of PGT windows and doors across Delray Beach.

Why Delray Beach Residents Choose Us for PGT Service

Dale Kessler grew up in Kendall back when that part of Miami-Dade was mostly nurseries and canal roads, watching his father re-glaze storefronts along the Tamiami Trail before he ever drew a paycheck. He trained at Miami Dade College’s vocational program and has spent going on three decades measuring, sourcing, and setting windows and doors in South Florida. His founding rule still hangs on the shop whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.

That means our PGT work in Delray Beach is approached the way PGT designed their products to be handled. We use OEM-compatible parts where they’re available. We measure every opening twice. We register both warranty layers in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. And when a PGT frame is too far gone to save, we’ll tell you that too, because a square deal means you don’t pay for a repair that won’t hold.

We also know Delray Beach’s housing stock the way a local should. From Kings Point and Rainberry Bay condos to the historic wood-frame homes near Old School Square, the buildings are different, the failure modes are different, and the fix that works on one won’t work on the other. That’s the difference between a franchise playbook and a company that plans to be here in thirty years.

Common PGT Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Delray Beach

• Salt-spray oxidation on PGT WinGuard aluminum frames. East of Federal Highway, ocean air pits aluminum faster than anywhere else in Palm Beach County. We regularly see sash misalignment and lock failure on WinGuard frames within five to seven years, especially on homes left empty from May through October. The fix is replacement hardware with marine-grade components and re-alignment, not just lubricant.
• Fogged glass on 1980s and 1990s single-pane PGT sliders. Snowbird communities across Delray Beach still hold thousands of original PGT sliders that predate current wind-load code. One humid summer with the AC off is enough to kill a seal. Those units need full IGU replacement, not a quick patch, and we stock common sizes to keep turnaround short.
• Corroded interior locking points on Historic District PGT units. Custom narrow-profile aluminum PGT windows near Old School Square trap humidity against their non-standard finishes. Interior locking mechanisms corrode from the inside out, and partial replacements are difficult because the finishes are hard to match. We source period-appropriate hardware and match profiles so the replacement doesn’t stand out.
• Seized slider tracks in 55-plus condo developments. Kings Point, Rainberry Bay, Tropic Palms: we’re in these communities every fall. Humidity and salt combine with years of wear, and sliders grind instead of glide. Sometimes re-leveling the threshold and replacing rollers and weatherstripping solves it. Sometimes the frame is too far gone and a new slider is the honest answer.
• Wind-mitigation documentation gaps. Insurers in Palm Beach County want proof your openings are impact-rated or protected. If your PGT windows were replaced years ago but the paperwork is missing, we can inspect, verify, and help you get the documentation straightened out so you’re not overpaying on premiums.

PGT Service in Delray Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment

Delray Beach’s Historic Preservation Board is the one factor that separates this city from Boca Raton or Boynton Beach when it comes to PGT work. If your home sits in the designated Historic District around Old School Square, any window or door replacement requires a pre-permit meeting with the city’s Historic Preservation Planner. The board demands impact-rated products that replicate original lite patterns and frame dimensions exactly. A standard PGT vinyl replacement unit will be rejected outright. Only narrow-profile aluminum or fiberglass PGT impact windows in period configurations can legally close the sale. Most contractors won’t touch these jobs because they can’t meet the board’s requirements. We stock and fabricate those profiles, and we handle the paperwork so the permit doesn’t stall.

West of Federal Highway is a different story. Those CBS ranch homes and condos from the 1960s through the 1990s don’t answer to the Historic Board, but they do answer to Palm Beach County code, which enforces Florida Building Code wind-load minimums without requiring Miami-Dade NOA product approval. That’s a compliance distinction contractors moving between South Florida counties get wrong all the time. It matters because it changes which PGT products you can legally install and what documentation your insurer will accept.

PGT Models & Products We Service in Delray Beach

Our team works on four PGT lines regularly in Delray Beach: PGT WinGuard Aluminum, PGT SpectraGuard, PGT PremierVue, and PGT Pinnacle. WinGuard is the most common in coastal and snowbird housing stock. SpectraGuard and PremierVue show up more in newer construction and higher-end replacements. Pinnacle appears most often in luxury barrier-island homes along the A1A corridor.

For active product lines, we use genuine PGT replacement hardware and glass packs whenever they’re available. For discontinued 1980s aluminum lines where PGT no longer supplies parts, we source quality marine-grade aftermarket rollers, locks, and weatherstripping that actually hold up to Delray Beach’s salt air. We know the difference between a part that matches the original spec and one that will fail again in two seasons. And if your PGT frame is too corroded to save, we’ll tell you a full-frame replacement costs less than repeated sash repairs. That’s the honest math, and we’ll walk you through it on paper, side by side, before any work starts.
