Most window and door problems in Pine Hills don’t start with a sudden failure. They start as a dull annoyance that homeowners have been living with for years. A jalousie window that won’t fully close. A front door that sticks every humid August afternoon. An electric bill that keeps climbing no matter what the thermostat says. If you live in one of Pine Hills’ 1950s-1970s concrete block ranch homes, you already know these symptoms. TruePane Windows & Doors fixes them properly, and we answer the phone when you call: (754) 238-2201.
We’re a second-generation glazier’s company led by Dale Kessler, and we treat every Pine Hills job like it’s going into a neighbor’s house, because it usually is. Free estimates, written line-item quotes, and no surprise charges when the work is done.

Why Pine Hills Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
We’ve worked on homes throughout Pine Hills for years now, from the streets off Silver Star Road to the neighborhoods around Pine Hills Road and the blocks tucked behind Evans High School. The people who call us aren’t looking for the cheapest bid. They’ve been burned before. They want a company that measures every opening twice, quotes manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and registers both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway.
That’s the Keystone Standard, and it’s how every TruePane job works. We hold a Done Right Promise on all work: if it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights. No arguing. We also keep a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, because Pine Hills has plenty of both, and we’d rather earn a lifetime customer than win a one-time bid.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to work in a customer’s home the way they’d work in their own mother’s. We hire locally, train apprentices into journeymen, and act like a company that plans to be in town in thirty years. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Pine Hills
Window Installation
New windows in Pine Hills usually mean working with concrete block rough openings, not wood framing. We set windows into masonry with proper anchoring, flashing, and stucco repair so the job looks and performs like it was built that way.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Pine Hills.
Door Installation
Front doors, back doors, and side-entry doors in CBS homes need precise blocking and shimming to stay square through Florida’s humidity swings. We install doors that close solidly in July, not ones that bind.
Learn more about our Door Installation in Pine Hills.
Window Replacement
Replacing original single-pane and jalousie windows in Pine Hills requires full-frame masonry techniques and Florida Building Code compliance. We handle the permits, the anchoring, and the finish work.

Impact Windows & Doors
Inland Pine Hills still feels hurricane force winds, and Orange County’s code mandates impact-rated or properly engineered glazing. We install CGI and ES Windows impact units that satisfy code and insurance documentation requirements.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Those original 1960s jalousie windows leak conditioned air year-round. Modern low-E insulated units cut the afternoon heat gain that drives up summer cooling bills in Pine Hills’ CBS homes.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Older sliding doors in Pine Hills ranch homes lose their rollers and tracks after decades of use. We replace them with smooth-operating, properly sealed units sized to the original opening.
Glass Railing Systems
For porches, patios, and pool areas, we install frameless and semi-frameless glass railing systems anchored securely for Florida’s wind loads.
Custom Windows & Doors
Unusual openings, odd sizes, or a homeowner who wants something specific. We quote custom lines from manufacturers like ECO Window Systems and CWS, with every option on paper before you commit.

Why Pine Hills’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Pine Hills is one of Orlando’s earliest planned suburbs, and the housing stock proves it. Most homes here are single-story concrete block ranch houses built between roughly 1955 and 1975, with masonry walls framing every rough opening. That matters because window and door replacement in this area almost always involves cutting stucco, anchoring into block, and flashing masonry properly. It’s a different trade from the vinyl-sided wood-frame work common in newer Orange County suburbs, and a company that doesn’t know the difference will leave you with leaks and voids.
Central Florida’s afternoon thunderstorm season punishes windows and doors here. Year-round humidity drives frame rot and seal failure. Hurricane Charley’s 2004 inland track made Orange County strict about wind-load and energy-efficiency compliance on every permitted replacement. Homeowners’ insurance carriers operating in Pine Hills ZIP codes increasingly want documentation of code-compliant or impact-rated units before they’ll maintain or reduce premiums. That makes a correctly documented install not just a nicety. It’s a financial asset.
Then there are the jalousie windows. Louvered glass panels with virtually no insulating value, no meaningful wind resistance, and easy forced-entry vulnerability remain surprisingly common in Pine Hills’ older CBS homes, both rentals and owner-occupied. Our technicians regularly explain to a landlord or long-term homeowner why that original 1962 jalousie cannot simply be reglazed to meet current code. It has to come out, and the masonry opening has to be built up properly for a modern unit.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Pine Hills
Standard window replacement in Pine Hills typically runs $700 to $1,600 per window, while full-frame masonry replacements common in the area’s concrete block homes run $1,200 to $2,500 per opening. Impact-rated units push the range higher. Call (754) 238-2201 for a free, written, line-item estimate with no obligation.
Yes, in almost every case. Original jalousie windows from the 1950s and 1960s do not meet current Orange County wind-load, energy, or forced-entry codes, and reglazing the louvers does not change that structural fact. A full replacement into the masonry block is the compliant path. We’ll walk you through the options and explain the code requirements plainly.
Many insurance carriers writing policies in Pine Hills ZIP codes now require documentation of code-compliant or impact-rated units to maintain or reduce premiums. We register both warranty layers and provide the paperwork your insurer wants. Call us with your policy details and we’ll tell you what’s needed.
Most single-window full-frame replacements in concrete block homes take one day of on-site work, including stucco repair and anchoring. Larger multi-window projects may run two to three days depending on access and weather. We’ll give you a written schedule before work begins and stick to it.
No. Our quotes are fixed, written, and line-itemed. If we find hidden damage inside the wall, we stop and show you before any additional work is approved. No surprise line items on the bill, ever. That’s a square deal, and it’s how we work in Pine Hills.
