Window Replacement in Hollywood - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Hollywood

Window replacement in Hollywood, FL means working inside one of the strictest building codes in the country. Every job we take in Hollywood falls under Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means the window going into your home has to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for the exact product and size being installed. That is not a formality. It is the difference between a window that passes a wind mitigation re-inspection and one that gets your policy flagged for non-renewal. If you are looking at original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows on a 1950s CBS home, a simple like-for-like swap is legally off the table, and we will show you exactly what the code-compliant path looks like before we touch a single screw. Call (754) 238-2201 and we will walk you through it.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Window Replacement Company

We have spent enough time opening up Hollywood homes to know what hides in the walls. The CBS construction that defines so much of this city is solid, but the original window openings from the 1950s through the 1970s were almost never framed to modern impact-rated dimensions. Our crews expect undersized rough openings. They expect jamb pockets packed with rust. They expect flashing that was never installed correctly in the first place. That local knowledge changes how we quote and how we build. We do not walk in with a stock number and hope the wall cooperates. We measure every opening twice, inspect what is behind the trim, and put the real scope in writing before we ask for a signature.

Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a rule that still sits on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule governs how our background-checked, uniformed technicians work in Hollywood homes, including the stretch of older houses along the central east-west grid between I-95 and Federal Highway and the mid-rise condos lining the A1A corridor. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, and every job carries our Done Right Promise. If it is not right, we make it right. No paperwork fights.

Our Window Replacement Services in Hollywood

Full Frame Replacement

Full frame replacement is the most common job we do in Hollywood, and it is what most older CBS homes actually need. We remove the entire existing window down to the rough opening, reframe to a true 2×6 buck when required, flash the sill with butyl tape, and set the new impact-rated unit properly. This is the only path when the original jalousie or aluminum frame has been eaten by decades of humidity and salt air, which we see on nearly every job within a mile of the Intracoastal. In Hollywood neighborhoods like Hollywood Hills and the blocks around Young Circle, full frame replacement typically runs $1,200 to $2,800 per opening, depending on product line, size, and the condition of the rough opening once it is exposed.

Insert Window Replacement

Insert replacement, sometimes called a pocket replacement, fits a new window inside the existing frame instead of pulling the old one out entirely. It is a reasonable option when the original frame is structurally sound and square, which is not always the case in Hollywood’s older homes. We will tell you honestly if an insert will work or if the frame is too compromised to hold a new impact-rated sash. For a well-maintained wood or aluminum frame in good condition, insert window replacement in Hollywood generally runs $800 to $1,600 per window. If the jamb is rotted or the frame is out of square, we will recommend full frame and explain exactly why an insert would fail.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade

Hollywood’s electric bills run high from May through October, and a surprising amount of that load comes from windows that radiate heat all afternoon. Upgrading to low-E insulated glass with argon fill cuts solar heat gain meaningfully, especially on the west-facing elevations common throughout the city. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see the difference between a basic dual-pane unit and a thermally broken aluminum impact system with true low-E coatings. Energy-efficient window upgrades in Hollywood typically run $900 to $2,200 per opening, with the higher end reflecting marine-grade or thermally broken frames that also satisfy HVHZ impact requirements.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood

We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and ES Windows. That matters in Hollywood because HVHZ compliance means we need to match the right product to the exact wind-load design pressure for your specific location. A condo slider two blocks off A1A has different requirements than a single-family CBS house near Stirling Road. We do not push a single brand. We show you the options, the NOA documentation for each, and the price difference in plain numbers on paper. If a window manufacturer will not register both warranty layers in writing, we will not put their product in your home.

Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

On a 1960s CBS house just west of Federal Highway near Hollywood Hills, our crew pulled a corroded original jalousie unit and found the jamb pockets packed with rust and the rough opening undersized for any modern impact-rated frame. We reframed to a true 2×6 buck, flashed the sill with butyl tape, and set an Andersen 400 Series impact casement with low-E glass and argon fill, then signed off the NOA paperwork and the homeowner’s Citizens wind mitigation form the same week. That job is not an outlier. Here is what we see across Hollywood:

• Salt air eating aluminum frames while the glass still looks fine. Within roughly a mile of the Atlantic, the narrow geography between the ocean and the Intracoastal turns aluminum into a crumbling mess within two decades. The sash looks intact from the inside, but the channels that hold the glass and hardware are structurally gone.
• Impact windows installed without the NOA sticker or paperwork. A homeowner thinks they have compliant windows. The wind mitigation re-inspection says otherwise. The insurer issues non-renewal anyway. The window itself is fine, but the job was never legally completed, and the homeowner has no recourse without starting over.
• Insert replacements installed into rotted jambs. The new window looks great for six months. Then the first big rainy season pushes water behind the unit through the original failed flashing, and now the interior drywall is stained and the sill is swelling. By then the installer is gone.
• Oversized condo sliders with corroded tracks. The A1A and Intracoastal corridor has a dense layer of aging mid-rise condos from the same era as Hollywood’s single-family stock, and their sliding glass doors face the same salt-air abuse. When the track is gone, the door binds, leaks, and will not pass an inspection. It needs full replacement, not a track rebuild.
