AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows Across Lake Park
If you own a home in Lake Park, you already know the drill: original jalousie windows, thin aluminum sliders, and salt air from the Lake Worth Lagoon working on every frame. Window Replacement - Lake Park is not an upgrade for most of these homes. It is code compliance, insurance protection, and the difference between a water-damaged living room and a dry one after a storm. We have been working Lake Park’s post-WWII concrete block homes long enough to know what hides behind the stucco, and we quote accordingly. Call (561) 928-0302 and Ed Winslow or a member of his team will answer and schedule your free in-home measure.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lake Park’s Preferred Impact Windows Company
Ed Winslow put his name on this business in 2011, and that name is on every job we finish in Lake Park. We are not a franchise with a rotating crew. When our truck pulls up to a 1960s CBS home off 10th Street or a mid-century block near Australian Avenue, the person at your door is background-checked, uniformed, and accountable to the owner who signed the quote. Lake Park homeowners call us because they want one company that answers the phone at any hour and does not hand off responsibility to a call center.
Our reputation in Lake Park is built on full-frame tear-outs done right, not just glass swapped into failing frames. We know that the salt-laden breeze off the lagoon has been eating aluminum jambs for decades. We know which 1950s rough openings will need a custom-ordered unit rather than a stock size. That local knowledge means the quote we write is the quote you pay, with no change orders when the crew discovers a rotted jamb. Upfront pricing. No surprises on the invoice.
Our Impact Windows Services in Lake Park
Impact Window Installation
A proper impact window installation in Lake Park almost always means a full-frame tear-out, not a pocket replacement. The original aluminum frames on these CBS homes have absorbed forty or fifty years of salt air, and setting a new impact unit into a corroded jamb is a waste of money. We strip the opening to the block, re-flash it, set the new frame, and stucco patch around it so water never finds a seam. Every install carries a Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Product Approval number matched to the opening.
Impact Window Replacement
When we replace impact windows in Lake Park, we match design pressures to the specific opening, not a generic number. A bedroom window on a single-story block home faces different wind loads than a second-floor unit near the Intracoastal. We order custom sizes for these non-standard rough openings, which is why our replacement jobs seal tight and drain properly. Stock units forced into 1960s openings are the leading cause of water intrusion we see from other installers.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
The single-pane aluminum sliders that came with Lake Park’s 1950s and 1960s homes are among the weakest openings in the house. We install Sliding Glass & Patio Doors - Lake Park from PGT and CGI that carry large-missile ratings and Florida Product Approval for the county’s wind zone. If your slider track is seized from salt corrosion, we will tell you before we quote, not after the crew starts pulling it apart.
Custom Impact Window Openings
Lake Park homes frequently have window sizes that do not exist on a warehouse shelf. We order custom impact units for those openings, so the glass fits the block opening rather than forcing the block opening to fit the glass. Ed Winslow’s team has been installing Impact Windows in custom configurations across Palm Beach County for years, and we handle the measuring, ordering, and installation start to finish.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lake Park
We are authorized installers for eight premium brands, and for Lake Park homes we lean on the units that handle salt air and high wind zones best. CGI and CWS both manufacture large-missile impact windows and Door Installation - Lake Park options with Miami-Dade NOA documentation that satisfies Palm Beach County building officials. We also install ES Windows and ECO Window Systems configurations when the project calls for a specific sightline or frame finish. Because we order directly from these manufacturers, Lake Park customers get accurate lead times and a clean chain of warranty accountability from the factory to our truck.
Common Impact Windows Problems We See in Lake Park Homes
- Salt-air corrosion on aluminum frames and hardware. Homes within a half mile of the Lake Worth Lagoon show jamb seizure, frozen sashes, and white zinc pitting on original frames. Even when the glass is intact, the frame often requires a full tear-out because the hardware is no longer sound. A glass-only swap leaves that failing frame in place.
- Non-standard rough openings on CBS homes. The 1950s through 1970s houses in Lake Park were built before standardized window manufacturing. We measure every opening individually and order custom units. Forcing a stock impact window into an irregular opening creates poor seals, water intrusion, and a product approval that may not match the actual configuration.
- Original jalousie windows still in place. We still pull louvered jalousie units out of Lake Park bedrooms and bathrooms on a regular basis. These windows are essentially open to hurricane winds and wind-driven rain. Homeowners often do not realize their insurer can refuse to renew coverage until the openings are brought into compliance.
- Fogged or failed single-pane aluminum sliders. Many original sliders in Lake Park have lost their seal and now fog between the panes. Beyond the cosmetic issue, these units provide no impact protection and minimal energy efficiency. Replacement requires an impact-rated slider matched to the opening, plus attention to the corroded track and jamb condition before installation.
Pricing for Impact Windows in Lake Park, FL
A typical impact window replacement in Lake Park runs $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with full-frame tear-outs on the higher end because of the extra flashing, stucco patching, and custom-sizing these older CBS homes require. Impact sliders and specialty openings run $2,500 to $5,000. A whole-home package for a 1,200 to 1,800 square foot Lake Park house generally lands between $8,000 and $25,000, depending on opening count and wind-zone requirements. We measure, order, permit, install, and then hand you the documentation your insurer needs. Call (561) 928-0302 for a free in-home measure and a written line-item quote.
What Impact Windows Costs in Lake Park
Here is the honest math for Lake Park. Impact windows generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed. Impact single-hung units fall between $900 and $1,800, while large or custom openings can reach $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages typically cost $8,000 to $25,000 or more. What moves the price in Lake Park specifically: opening count, wind zone, floor height, and whether the existing frame requires a full tear-out due to salt-air corrosion. Most of our Lake Park jobs are tear-outs. We do not do pocket replacements into corroded jambs, because those fail. A cheap bid that skips re-flashing or leaves a rotted frame in place is not a deal; it is a future water damage claim. Call (561) 928-0302 and we will measure every opening, explain what your home actually needs, and hand you a written quote with no change orders later.
Florida Pays You Back
Impact windows in Lake Park are not just a storm upgrade; they carry real financial return. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation improvements, and impact windows are eligible. Florida exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. At the federal level, the 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying units. And once a wind-mitigation inspection documents your new impact openings (which typically costs $75 to $150), most carriers reduce the windstorm portion of the premium by around 25%. Programs and carrier formulas change, so we will point you to the current application process rather than promise a number.

FAQs - Impact Windows in Lake Park
Palm Beach County code requires impact windows that carry a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval matching the design pressure for the specific opening, and a building permit with a final inspection. For a 1960s CBS home in Lake Park, that means a large-missile rated unit, a full-frame tear-out where the original aluminum jamb is corroded, and documentation that proves the glazing meets the wind-zone requirement. A compliant quote includes the permit, the product approval numbers, and the inspection. If a quote does not include those, it is not a compliant quote. Call (561) 928-0302 and we will walk you through exactly what your home requires.
Safety film does not meet Florida Building Code impact requirements, and shutters only protect the opening if they are installed and deployed correctly before every storm. Jalousie windows are louvered and cannot be brought into compliance with film; they need to be replaced or permanently protected by a code-approved system. The bigger issue is insurance: many carriers will non-renew or surcharge a Lake Park policy on a home with unprotected jalousie windows. Replacing them with impact glass solves the code, insurance, and security problem at once. Call (561) 928-0302 for a free measure and we will show you what a compliant replacement costs.
Salt-laden air accelerates corrosion on aluminum frames, hardware, and fasteners, especially on homes west of the lagoon. We regularly see original aluminum jambs with zinc pitting, seized hardware, and rotted sill channels on 40 and 50 year old Lake Park homes. That is why we perform full-frame tear-outs instead of pocket replacements; a new impact unit set into a corroded frame will leak and fail prematurely. Our installs include re-flashing and stucco patching around the new frame, so the opening is sealed to the block, not to a corroding metal jamb. Call (561) 928-0302 and ask for a salt-air inspection of your existing windows.
Yes. Palm Beach County requires a building permit for impact window replacement, and the final inspection verifies that the product approval matches the installation. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and stay on the job until it passes. Permits pulled and inspections passed are part of every quote we write in Lake Park. A contractor who says you do not need a permit is putting your insurance claim at risk. Call (561) 928-0302 for a quote that includes the full permit and inspection process.
After a wind-mitigation inspection, most insurers reduce the windstorm portion of the premium by roughly 25% when the home has documented impact-rated glazing. Documented is the operative word: you need the product approval numbers, the permit record, and the final inspection. We hand you that package at the end of every Lake Park job. The inspection itself usually costs $75 to $150, and the premium reduction applies year after year. Call (561) 928-0302 and we will explain what documentation your carrier will ask for.
