Window Installation in Miami - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Trusted Window Installation for Miami Homeowners

Window installation in Miami is not a job you want done twice. Between the salt air off Biscayne Bay, the May-to-October storm season, and the July humidity that never gives a house a break, a window set even slightly out of true will show its flaws within the first year. TruePane Windows & Doors has installed windows across Miami since 2008, and our founder, Dale Kessler, still keeps the same rule on the whiteboard that he started with: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We answer the phone with a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call (754) 238-2201 and you will never fight a voicemail tree.

What Our Window Installation Service Includes

Window Installation - Miami covers every opening in the walls of your home, and each style asks for a different hand. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway. Here is what that looks like for each type of window.

Casement Windows

Casement windows hinge at the side and crank open outward, which keeps the sash sealed tight against the frame when the wind shuts them. In Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and Window Installation in Miami Beach, we often replace older crank mechanisms that have corroded from decades of salt air. Our technicians set the pane squared to the opening so the hinge geometry works without binding, then check the crank throw at full open and full closed before we call the job done.

Awning Windows

Awning windows hinge at the top and open outward from the bottom, so you can leave them cracked during an afternoon rain without water coming inside. They show up most often in smaller rooms like bathrooms and kitchens, paired over a fixed window. We set the top hinge line true to the header so the sash closes into the weep channels the way the manufacturer designed, not the way a rushed install usually leaves it.

Fixed & Picture Windows

Fixed and picture windows do not open, which means the install has to be perfect the first time because the frame carries the entire glass load permanently. We use these in living rooms and second-story elevation features, where the view matters as much as the seal. TruePane sets fixed units level to the rough opening, shims the frame at manufacturer spacing, and registers the glass warranty with the maker before we leave the driveway.

Single & Double Hung Windows

Single hung keeps the bottom sash moving and the top locked. Double hung lets both sashes move, which changes the balance system and the frame tolerances. Miami homes from the 60s and 70s often have original single hung windows with double-hung replacements put in wrong, and we see the result: sashes that drop on their own when the heat expands the track. We set both sashes so they hold position and seal against the meeting rail.

Sliding Windows

Sliding windows move horizontally on a track, and the rolling hardware is the part that fails first in Miami’s humidity. We set the track level with a two-person line-read so the rollers wear evenly and the sash never drags against the frame. If the existing opening has settled, we correct the framing before the window goes in rather than shimming the track to hide the problem.

Bay & Bow Windows

Bay and bow windows project outward from the wall, so the structural load calculation matters as much as the glazing. A bay window carries two angled side units, and a bow window carries four or more, and both require proper seat boards and header support. In Miami, we also flash the underside of the projection for afternoon rains driven sideways off the water. We build the seat first, set the units square to the seat, and tie the framing into the existing wall structure with CAD design before any cutting begins.

Garden & Basement Windows

Garden windows are small, glass-fronted boxes that hang off the kitchen wall, and basement windows sit low in the wall and close to the ground. Both need extra attention to drainage because water sits at the base of the frame in a way it never does on a second story. We set the sill pan with a slope to the exterior and seal the bottom corners before the window goes in, then we check the landscaping grade around the opening so the next rain runs away from the window, not into it.

Brands We Service for Window Installation

We are an authorized installer for PGT and CGI, two of the brands that carry the most weight in the Miami market because they were engineered for the Miami-Dade impact code in the first place. Our technicians set PGT WinGuard and CGI Sentinel units against the manufacturer’s own anchoring schedule, not a generic drill pattern, so the noa holds the way the engineer intended. We also work with CWS impact windows, which many customers choose when they want a quieter frame and a narrower sightline.

We carry a dozen more manufacturer lines beyond those, including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, and Milgard. When you call for a quote, our technician brings paper pricing for every line that fits your opening, side by side. You see exactly what each window costs and what each warranty covers. Whether you have PGT, CGI, CWS, or any other make, we can install it, register the warranty, and stand behind the work in writing.

Signs You Need Window Installation Right Now

• Condensation between the glass panes. A fogged seal means the insulating gas has leaked out and the window can no longer block Miami’s heat the way it should. You cannot clean fog between the panes, and the fix is a new sealed unit.
• The window sticks or refuses to open in the warm months. Miami’s heat expands frames and shifts settled openings. A window that worked in January and will not budge in August has a frame issue or an install problem, and forcing it only makes the damage worse.
• Daylight visible around the closed sash. If you can see light at the edges of a shut window, water and air are getting through the same gap. In a storm, that gap becomes the first failure point.
• Rot or softness in the surrounding drywall or wood trim. A window that is leaking does not always show visible water. Peeling paint, bubbling drywall, and a musty smell near the frame all point to water getting in around the unit and sitting inside the wall cavity.
• Your energy bill climbs every summer while the air conditioner runs more. Single-pane and failed-seal windows are heat leaks that force your AC to work harder. Replacing them is a one-time fix for a monthly expense that only goes up.

Our Window Installation Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Free in-home measurement and quote. A uniformed TruePane technician measures every opening twice, inspects the existing framing and flashing, and writes a line-item quote on paper. You see the price for each window and each labor step before you commit.
2. 2
   Manufacturer selection and warranty registration. We quote the window lines that fit your opening and your budget side by side, and we explain the manufacturer warranty in plain language. Before the truck leaves the driveway on install day, both warranty layers are registered in writing under The Keystone Standard.
3. 3
   Precision removal and opening preparation. We remove the old window, repair or replace any damaged framing, and set the rough opening square to the house. A laser level checks the sill, the jambs, and the header before the first shim goes in.
4. 4
   Installation to manufacturer spec. We set the new window with the manufacturer’s anchoring pattern, flash the perimeter, and seal the interior and exterior per the installation instructions. No shortcuts on fasteners, no skipped flashing corners, no caulk covering a gap that should be fixed with framing.
5. 5
   Final inspection and cleanup. The technician walks the job with you, operates every sash, locks every lock, and goes over the warranty registration. We haul away all the old window debris and leave the work area clean. If anything is not done right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and fix it without paperwork and without arguing.
