Window Replacement in Boca Raton - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Trusted Window Replacement for Boca Raton Homeowners

Window replacement in Boca Raton runs between $350 and $2,800 per opening depending on frame condition, glass package, and whether you’re swapping sashes or pulling the whole frame. We’ve handled replacements in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, Woodfield Country Club, and the older ranch neighborhoods west of I-95 where salt air and hurricane code have worn the original 1980s frames to the point of failure. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 after watching too many humidity-swollen windows get caulked shut and called “fixed.” We carry full insurance, our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and a live person answers when you call (561) 264-1337.

What Our Window Replacement Service Includes

Every Best Window Replacement in Boca Raton, FL starts with the same question: is the frame still true? If it is, we can often save you money. If it isn’t, we pull it. Here’s what each service covers, plain and simple.

Full Frame Replacement

This is the job where the entire old window comes out down to the rough opening, including the frame, casing, and any rotted trim. You need it when water has worked its way into the wood, when the frame has twisted out of square, or when you’re changing the window size or style altogether. We shim the new frame level and plumb, flash it against South Florida’s sideways rain, and set the new unit exactly as the manufacturer specifies so the warranty actually stays valid. In Boca Raton, where wood frames near the Intracoastal fail inside of ten years, full frame replacement is often the only honest fix.

Insert Window Replacement

An insert (sometimes called a pocket replacement) leaves your existing frame in place and fits a new energy-efficient window inside it. It works well when the original frame is square, dry, and solid, and you want to upgrade glass and seals without tearing out drywall or stucco. We measure each opening twice, order the insert to fit the exact reveal, and set it with attention to how the Boca Raton summer heat will expand the vinyl. Inserts typically cost less than full frame work, and we’ll tell you honestly if your frame makes the choice for you.

Storm Window Replacement

For homes with original or aging storm windows, this means replacing the outer storm unit or upgrading the inner primary window while the storm remains. It’s common in the older sections of Boca Raton where owners like the look of their original windows and want to keep the exterior unchanged. We replace cracked or hazed storm glass, fix bent tracks, and ensure the two window layers drain properly so you don’t trap condensation between them. If the storm is doing more harm than good, we’ll show you a photo and recommend the better path.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade

This isn’t a separate window type; it’s a specification of the glass and frame package going into whatever replacement you choose. In Boca Raton, the priorities are low-E coatings that cut solar heat gain, argon or krypton-filled double panes, and frames that don’t bow in August humidity. We run the numbers on Solar Heat Gain Coefficient and U-factor for your elevation and let you pick the package that makes the most sense for which side of the house you’re on. Most homeowners see the biggest comfort gain on east-facing windows that cook every morning.

Historic Window Restoration

Some older Boca Raton homes have windows with architectural value: true divided lites, original cypress frames, or sashes worth preserving. We restore rather than replace where the structure is sound, replacing rotted wood with matching material, reglazing panes, and fitting new weatherstripping and hardware. It’s slower work and it costs more than a standard replacement, but we do it in-house and we’ve done it for decades. If restoration would cost more than a faithful replacement, we’ll tell you that up front.

Brands We Service for Window Replacement

TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we service what we sell. We work with Jeld-Wen on a regular basis for replacement windows in stucco homes around Boca Raton, and we stock their common hardware and balance parts so you’re not waiting on a shipment from Ohio. We’ve also installed a lot of Simonton across South Florida, especially their impact-rated lines, and we know their warranty claim process well enough to file one correctly the first time.

For homeowners who want a specific brand, Ply Gem is another line we install, and PGT remains one of the strongest options for impact protection within a mile of the water. If you have something else, whether it’s an old Keller or a builder-grade unit from the 90s, we can help. A live person answers at (561) 264-1337, and we’ll tell you whether a repair beats a replacement before we sell you anything.

Signs You Need Window Replacement Right Now

Some windows fail slowly. Others announce themselves. Here are the signs we tell our own families to watch for in Boca Raton.

• Visible rot at the bottom sash or sill. If a screwdriver sinks into the wood or the frame feels spongy when you press it, water has already won. Florida’s wet summers mean rot spreads fast, and replacing the window is nearly always cheaper than letting it reach your wall framing. We’ll cut out the rot and determine whether a frame replacement or full tear-out is necessary.
• Condensation or fogging between the panes. When the seal on an insulated glass unit fails, the dry air between the panes escapes and the window fogs from the inside out. No cleaner helps, and the glass has lost its insulating value. A failed seal means glass replacement at minimum, but if the frame is aging, you may be better served replacing the entire unit. We’ll show you the price difference on paper and let you decide.
• Windows won’t open, close, or stay open. A wood sash that swells shut every July or a vinyl window that drops closed on its own is telling you the balance system or the frame itself is failing. In an emergency, a window you can’t open is a safety hazard. We replace the failed hardware or the full window, depending on what’s worn, and we make sure it operates smoothly for years afterward.
• Drafts you can feel with your hand. Put your hand near the edge of the frame on a breezy day. If air moves around the window when it’s locked, the weatherstripping is shot or the frame has warped. South Florida air conditioners work hard enough already; leaked air drives your electric bill up every month. A correctly installed replacement seals against the wind and the humidity.
• Single-pane glass in a pre-1990 home. Many Boca Raton homes built before the stricter energy and impact codes came in still have original single-pane windows. They turn your house into an oven in August, and they offer almost no storm protection. Replacing single panes with insulated, impact-rated glass cuts energy use and adds genuine protection when a named storm takes aim.

Our Window Replacement Process - Step by Step

We work a consistent process here so you know exactly what happens next, from the first measurement to the final walkthrough.

1. 1
   Measure twice, on site. Every opening gets measured by a technician who has been doing this work for years, not a salesperson with a tablet and a catalogue. We measure height, width, depth, and diagonal, and we check for out-of-square conditions before we ever write a number down. In older Boca Raton homes, walls settle and openings shift, and a true measure is the difference between a window that fits and a window that fights the frame.
2. 2
   Side-by-side quote on paper. We quote manufacturer lines side by side so you can see what each costs, what each glass package includes, and what the warranty covers in writing. There’s no pressure and no vague “trust us” number. You’ll see what the materials cost and what our labor costs, and we register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway on install day.
3. 3
   Careful removal. Our technicians protect your floors and belongings with drop cloths and plastic sheeting, then remove the old window with as little disturbance to the surrounding wall as possible. We take the old unit away with us and clean the opening before the new window goes in. You won’t be left with a pile of debris on the lawn.
4. 4
   Installation and sealing. We set the new window level and plumb, shim it tight, and flash and seal it according to the manufacturer’s specification and Florida’s wind-driven rain realities. Interior trim goes back on straight and finished, and we caulk with the right product for the surface. This is where the workmanship shows, and it’s where we’d rather spend twenty extra minutes than cause you a callback later.
5. 5
   Final walkthrough and warranty registration. We clean the glass, check the operation, and walk the job with you before we leave. You’ll get your warranty paperwork in writing, both layers registered, and our Done Right Promise behind the whole install. If something’s not right, call us. We stand behind it.
