ES Windows Windows & Doors in Hollywood, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent ES Windows service across Hollywood, from Hollywood Hills to the beach corridor. We’re not a manufacturer affiliate and we don’t pretend to be. What makes our ES work different here is simple: we’ve spent more than a decade pulling pitted, seized, and failed ES frames out of Hollywood’s salt-stressed CBS walls, and we know exactly what the city’s HVHZ permit reviewers will ask for before the first screw comes out. Call (813) 320-9346 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane Windows & Doors on a rule he keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule governs every ES Windows repair and replacement we take on in Hollywood, whether it’s a sun-baked ES670 casement east of Dixie Highway or a failed ES8800 slider in a 1960s ranch off Washington Street.
Why Hollywood Residents Choose Us for ES Windows Service
Most window companies in South Florida can order an ES window. Few can tell you which ES hardware revision you have, which NOA number your replacement glass needs, or why your frame is pitting ten years ahead of schedule. Our crews have serviced ES Windows across South Florida for over a decade, including Es Windows in North Miami Beach and hundreds of Hollywood homes east of US-1, where ES aluminum frames show salt-driven failure a decade before inland Broward. We track the exact ES series numbers and hardware revisions that Hollywood permit reviewers flag under HVHZ rules, and we quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying.
We’re local, background-checked, and uniformed. We measure every opening twice. We register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. And we answer the phone when you call. Not a callback form, not a voicemail tree. A person. That matters when you’re standing in a Hollywood living room with a seized ES slider and a storm track forming in the Atlantic.
Common ES Windows Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Hollywood
- Salt-air pitting on ES anodized aluminum frames. East of Dixie Highway, the Atlantic salt air works through the anodized finish on ES aluminum frames within six to eight years. We see pitted frames, seized cam handles, and hardware that has to be cut off rather than removed. This is the single most common ES failure we address in Hollywood’s beach-adjacent neighborhoods.
- Original ES jalousie frames pulling away from CBS walls. Hollywood’s 1950s and 1960s concrete block ranches were built with jalousie windows, and many of those were ES original frames. Salt oxidation eats the anchors inside the block, the frame pulls loose, and we find quarter-inch gaps that fail HVHZ water-infiltration tests outright. The rough opening usually needs concrete repair before a new unit can be set.
- ES non-impact sliding glass door rollers seizing from salt and humidity. Hollywood’s year-round humidity plus the salt load near the coast turns ES slider rollers into rusted stubs. Doors jump track, bind against the frame, and eventually refuse to move at all. On pre-2000 ES frames, this is often the point where replacement makes more sense than another roller swap.
- ES weatherstripping delaminating on marine-facing elevations. Wind-driven rain works its way past brittle, cracked ES weatherstripping on east-facing walls. The water wicks into the rough opening, rots the shims, and starts a mold cycle inside the wall cavity. We see this most often on Hollywood homes within a mile of the Intracoastal.
- Fogged or failed ES impact laminated glass. On older ES impact units, the interlayer breaks down over time and the glass fogs between panes. Hollywood’s heat and humidity accelerate the process. We replace the glazing with NOA-approved laminated glass when the frame is sound, which keeps the job cheaper than a full tear-out.
ES Windows Service in Hollywood: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Hollywood sits entirely inside Florida’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-borne debris designation in the country. That’s not a county line or a marketing phrase. It’s a building-code reality shared with all of Broward and Miami-Dade, and it means any ES replacement east of Dixie Highway, even a simple glazing swap, must pass the city’s wind-borne debris review with a Miami-Dade NOA matching the exact ES model on the paperwork. No other Broward interior city faces that salt-meets-HVHZ combination on original 1960s jalousie openings. Layered on top of that, Hollywood’s dense inventory of post-WWII CBS ranch homes throughout neighborhoods like Hollywood Hills and West Hollywood still carries original jalousie windows that are uninsurable under most modern homeowner policies and completely non-compliant with current code. Full impact-glass replacement is the overwhelming driver of local window work, and it’s the work we do most often for ES Windows owners in this city.
ES Windows Models & Products We Service in Hollywood
We service the model families we see most in Hollywood: the ES670 casement, the ES8800 sliding glass door, the ES8500 impact single hung, and the ES3000 awning. For hardware we use OEM parts whenever they’re available, including rollers, keepers, and weatherstrips. But for impact glazing replacements on older ES frames, we go aftermarket with NOA-approved laminated glass, because ES’s pre-2000 impact specs often fall short of current Miami-Dade HVHZ requirements. If a frame is pitted through the anodize or the rough opening has pulled away from a CBS wall, we recommend full frame replacement rather than insert glazing. For more on our ES Windows background, see our ES Windows sales & service page.
ES Windows Service Pricing in Hollywood
ES Windows repair pricing in Hollywood depends on the failure mode, the model, and whether the frame is still sound. A seized roller replacement on an ES8800 slider typically runs $180 to $340. A full impact glazing replacement on an ES670 casement with NOA-approved laminated glass usually lands between $450 and $900 per unit, depending on size and whether the frame needs re-anchoring. A full frame replacement, which is often the right call on pitted ES aluminum east of Dixie Highway, runs higher because the rough opening work is real concrete and stucco repair, not a caulk-and-shim job.
Our free estimate includes a written line-item breakdown, the NOA numbers we’ll file with the city, and both warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. If it needs to be in writing to be true, we will put it in writing. Call (813) 320-9346 to schedule yours, and mention your ES model number if you have it. We also offer a free written repair estimate and a maintenance check.

FAQs - ES Windows Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Yes. Because Hollywood is entirely within the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, any impact replacement must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance that matches the exact ES model being installed, and the city’s permit reviewers will check that NOA number against the product approval before they sign off. We pull the NOA documentation and file it with the permit package on every Hollywood job. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you what your specific ES model needs.
They do. We see ES anodized aluminum frames pitting and seizing within six to eight years on Hollywood homes east of Dixie Highway, while the same frames inland in Davie or Es Windows service in Plantation might go fifteen or twenty years before showing the same wear. The salt air near the beach corridor works through the anodized finish and eats the hardware from the inside. Marine-grade or PVC/fiberglass frames are functionally required near the coast, not upsells.
Yes, if the frame itself is still sound. We replace the rollers, keepers, and weatherstripping with OEM hardware whenever available, and the door usually tracks smoothly again the same day. But if the frame has corroded through the anodize or the screw bosses are stripped, a roller swap is a patch, not a fix, and we’ll tell you that before we take the job. Call (813) 320-9346 for an honest read on your ES slider.
It depends on the anchors and the condition of the concrete around the opening. Hollywood’s CBS homes were built with window frames set directly into the block, and decades of salt and humidity often leave the anchors gone and the rough opening crumbling. On a 1960s CBS ranch off Washington Street in West Hollywood, we pulled an original ES jalousie whose frame had corroded so deeply from salt air that the wall anchors were gone, a pattern we also see when providing Es Windows repair in Miami Gardens. The rough opening needed a full concrete patch before we could set an ES670 impact casement. In cases like that, insert glazing is not code-compliant and we won’t do it. A full frame replacement is the only right answer.
The Miami-Dade NOA matching the exact ES product being installed, plus the engineering and product approval for the anchoring method. Hollywood’s inspectors are thorough and they know ES products well, particularly the older series that show up on 1960s and 1970s ranches, just as our Fort Lauderdale Es Windows service teams encounter. We carry the documentation to every inspection and register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. Call (813) 320-9346 for an exact quote on your ES setup.
