AfterFast, Reliable Window Installation Across Edgewood
Window installation in Edgewood runs $450-$1,350 per opening for a standard single or double hung unit with code-compliant framing, and $900-$2,800 per opening when the job requires impact-rated glass and a full Orange County permit inspection. Most ranch homes here need the higher number because the original 1950s-1970s frames were never built to meet current Florida Building Code wind-load standards. We know Edgewood’s housing stock well: the jalousie windows on rear Florida rooms, the aluminum sliders that fog and bind, the lakefront exposures that rot door thresholds. Call (754) 238-2201 for a straight answer and a written quote.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Edgewood’s Preferred Window Installation Company
We have worked on enough Edgewood ranch homes to know what is behind the drywall before we cut into it: stud spacing that does not match modern rough openings, sill plates that settled in the 1960s, and window wells that were never flashed properly. That local knowledge changes how we quote and how we install. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008, but the craft standard behind it goes back many years through a second-generation glazier’s training. When our crew pulls up to a home on Hansrob Road or Lake Conway Drive, the homeowner gets uniformed, background-checked technicians who measure every opening twice and write the quote on paper before any work is scheduled.
The reason Edgewood homeowners call us back is simple: the Done Right Promise. If something is not right after the install, we return and fix it. No paperwork fight. No fine print. The Keystone Standard also means both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. You will know the exact warranty durations, in writing, from day one. That matters in a city where too many homeowners have been told a window repair would pass inspection and then found out otherwise from an Orange County inspector.
Our Window Installation Services in Edgewood
Casement Windows
Casement windows in Edgewood cost $650-$1,700 per unit installed, depending on size and whether you need impact-rated glass. The crank mechanism handles Central Florida humidity better than a sliding track, which is one reason they make sense on the east-facing walls of older ranch homes that catch morning UV. We frame the opening with flashing tape at the jambs and set the unit to Orange County wind-load specs before the inspector ever arrives.
Awning Windows
Awning windows work well in Edgewood because they hinge at the top and shed rain even when left open during an afternoon storm. Expect $550-$1,400 per unit for code-compliant installation. On lakefront properties near Lake Conway, we often recommend them for west-facing walls where driving rain is the main failure mode. The sash seats tight against the frame, which also helps with the moisture-laden air that rots wood jambs on older houses.
Fixed & Picture Windows
Fixed picture windows typically run $700-$2,200 per unit in Edgewood. On a Florida room conversion, replacing a row of original jalousies with a fixed picture window is often the only way to meet code without rebuilding the wall. Our crew did exactly that on a ranch near Lake Conway: the original west-facing jalousies could not be sealed against moisture, so we framed in fixed picture windows with low-E glass and argon fill. Orange County’s structural inspection passed without a note.
Single & Double Hung
Single and double hung windows are the most common replacement in Edgewood, and the honest price range is $450-$1,350 per unit for standard code-compliant installs. Impact-rated versions start higher, around $900 per opening. The double hung is easier to clean and operate for homeowners planning to stay in the house another twenty years. We stock Simonton and Andersen lines in our rotation precisely because they meet Florida’s wind-load requirements without forcing a custom order every time.

Trusted Brands We Service in Edgewood
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Edgewood homes we quote, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems side by side on paper so you see the glass package, wind-load rating, and warranty duration before you spend a dollar. We do not push a single brand. We show you what each line actually delivers and what Orange County will accept. If you are replacing failed sliders on a 1965 ranch, the right choice is usually the unit that meets the wind-load spec without overbuilding, and we will tell you which one that is.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Edgewood Homes
- Jalousie windows that cannot pass inspection. Original jalousies on rear Florida rooms and screened enclosures cannot be brought into compliance with current FBC wind-load specs. Contractors who quote a “repair” find out the whole opening needs a compliant insulated glass unit and an Orange County permit. We quote it correctly the first time.
- Aluminum frame seal failure. Central Florida’s UV intensity and year-round humidity cause aluminum-frame seals to fail early, which is why so many Edgewood homes have fogged panes. That fog means argon gas has leaked out and the U-factor no longer meets Orange County energy compliance. The fix is a full replacement, not a clean-and-reseal.
- Wood rot at rear door thresholds and window jambs. Homes near Lake Conway sit in moisture-laden air that accelerates rot at the very spots where a window or door frame meets the structure. Flashing tape and new jambs are required before any sash installation can pass inspection. We build that into the quote up front.
- Rough openings that no longer match modern units. A 1950s ranch in Edgewood was framed to different dimensions than today’s standard window sizes. A cheap quote assumes the old unit pops out and a new one drops in. A real quote accounts for reframing, shimming, and re-flashing the opening so the new unit actually seals.
Pricing for Window Installation in Edgewood, FL
A standard double hung replacement in Edgewood runs $450-$1,350 per unit. A fixed picture window runs $700-$2,200. Casement windows sit between $650 and $1,700. Impact-rated versions add $400-$900 per opening because the glass package and frame reinforcements cost more. What changes the final number is the condition of the rough opening: rotted jambs, failed flashing, or framing that needs to be brought into square all add labor that a cheap quote simply omits. Our written quote includes every one of those line items before you sign. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will come measure for free.

FAQs - Window Installation in Edgewood
Yes, you need an Orange County permit for any window replacement in Edgewood, and the inspection will check that the installed unit meets Florida Building Code wind-load ratings, that the frame is properly flashed and sealed, and that the rough opening is structurally sound. The inspector will not pass a jalousie repair or a like-for-like swap on an old single-pane aluminum frame. TruePane pulls the permit on every job and schedules the inspection. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will walk you through the exact steps.
Original jalousie windows cannot be repaired to pass Orange County inspection because the slat-and-clip design cannot meet any current Florida Building Code wind-load or water-resistance standard. The only compliant fix is a full replacement with an impact-rated or code-approved insulated glass unit, which means the entire opening gets re-framed and flashed. A repair quote on jalousies is a wasted inspection fee.
Edgewood sits in a Florida wind zone that requires window assemblies to meet the design pressure ratings stated in the FBC for your specific wall height and exposure. The inspector will check the manufacturer’s label on the unit against those numbers. We quote the exact rated product for your address, not a generic “hurricane window” that may not match what Orange County requires. Call (754) 238-2201 for a written quote that states the rating.
Documented compliance affects both: a permitted, inspected window installation with impact-rated glass is evidence your home meets current wind-load standards, which many Florida insurers now require before paying a storm-damage claim or offering premium discounts. If the work was done without a permit and a storm blows in the unit, the insurance company can dispute the claim. We register both warranty layers and keep your permit records in order.
Fog between the panes means the insulated glass unit has lost its seal and the argon gas has leaked out, so the U-factor of that window no longer meets Orange County energy compliance. This is common in Edgewood because the same UV and humidity that kills aluminum frames also stresses glass-unit seals. The fix is a new insulated glass unit or a full sash replacement, not a cleaning.
