Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across West Park
Window replacement in West Park means working on a very specific kind of house: a 1950s or 1960s concrete block ranch, almost always single story, almost always still carrying its original single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows. Those windows are decades past their useful life, and in Broward County’s wind-borne debris region, they’re also a code and insurance liability. We replace them correctly the first time, with permits pulled through West Park’s own building department and impact-rated glass that keeps your insurance carrier from dropping your policy.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is West Park’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
We’ve been through enough West Park ranch houses to know what’s behind the stucco before we open the wall. The housing stock here is uniform: CBS block, small footprints, original openings that were framed for jalousie or thin single-pane aluminum. That uniformity means our crews move efficiently block to block, but it also means we’re not surprised when we find corroded tracks, rotted sills, or framing that was never flashed properly in the first place. Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 with a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our reputation in West Park is built on showing up when we say, measuring every opening twice, and writing both manufacturer warranty layers into the contract before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard. Every job is covered by the Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing. Background-checked, uniformed technicians do the work, and they treat your home the way they’d treat their own mother’s.
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. That matters when you’re trying to compare products honestly. We’ll quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. And a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail tree. Not a regional call center. A person.
Our Window Replacement Services in West Park
Most West Park homes we see fall into one of a few categories: full tear-outs where the original aluminum is shot, insert jobs where the block opening is still sound, energy upgrades where the homeowner is chasing lower cooling bills, and storm-hardening where insurance is the driving force. Here’s how we handle each.
Full Frame Replacement
Full frame replacement means pulling the entire old window out, down to the rough opening. In West Park, that almost always means discovering what forty years of salt-laden humidity has done to the wood bucks and flashing around the original aluminum frames. We inspect the opening, document what we find, and write any necessary repairs into the contract before we touch the structure. No surprises on the bill. No second appointment left hanging.

Insert Window Replacement
When the surrounding block and sill are still sound, an insert replacement fits a new window into the existing frame. This works on a surprising number of West Park ranches, especially where the original aluminum frames are still square even if the glass has fogged or the tracks have pitted. It’s faster and less invasive than a full tear-out, and it’s covered by the same Done Right Promise. We’ll tell you honestly if an insert makes sense, or if you’d be throwing good money into a frame that’s already failing.

Storm Window Replacement
West Park sits roughly five miles from the Atlantic, squarely inside Broward’s wind-borne debris region. That means replacement windows need impact-rated glazing or approved shutters to meet Florida Building Code. We install impact windows from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows that carry current Florida Product Approvals. If your insurance carrier is pushing you to upgrade before the next renewal, we’ll document the installation so you can send proof to your agent the same week.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade
The original single-pane glass in a 1962 West Park ranch does almost nothing to stop heat gain. Swapping to low-E, argon-filled insulated glass units cuts solar heat transmission dramatically, and in a block house with a flat tile roof, that translates directly to lower cooling bills from April through October. We carry ENERGY STAR-certified lines including ECO Window Systems. The difference in a west-facing bedroom on SW 40th Avenue is measurable.

For West Park customers, that means we can match existing sightlines on a partial replacement, or upgrade the whole house to a single impact-rated line. We stock common replacement parts for the older aluminum frames still hanging on in this area, which shortens turnaround when you’re trying to beat an insurance deadline. We don’t push one brand. We show you what each line costs, what it’s rated for, and what the warranty actually covers, in writing.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in West Park Homes
- Salt-corrosion on original aluminum frames. Living five miles from the Atlantic means salt-laden air works on aluminum year-round. Frames pit, tracks oxidize, and seals fail long before the glass itself would have failed inland. By the time a window won’t close or water is getting in around the sill, the frame is usually done.
- Failed insulated glass units. Fogged glass or condensation between panes means the argon has escaped and the U-factor is shot. We see this constantly in West Park homes where the original single-pane was swapped at some point for a budget double-pane that was never rated for coastal humidity.
- Permit delays from West Park’s own building department. West Park runs its own municipal building department, separate from Broward County and separate from Hollywood and Hallandale Beach. Contractors who don’t know the city routinely underestimate permit processing times. We pre-verify turnaround and inspection scheduling directly with West Park before we quote, so your project timeline is actually realistic.
- Rotted wood bucks behind original jalousies. The jalousie windows installed on West Park ranches in the 1950s and 60s were set into wood bucks that were never flashed to modern standards. Decades of driven rain and humidity have rotted a lot of those bucks and the sills under them. You don’t see it until the old window comes out.
How We Approach Older West Park Homes Differently
Opening up a 1960s CBS ranch in West Park turns up things that never show up on a contractor’s brochure. Outdated wiring running through window bays. Undersized or damaged framing. Failed waterproofing that’s been hiding behind the stucco. And once a wall is open, the code upgrades a permit triggers are real: hurricane strapping, improved flashing, sometimes electrical corrections that have nothing to do with glass. Contractors who don’t know West Park write a flat quote and then hit you with change orders on day two. We don’t work that way.
Here’s what we do instead. We inspect first. Before we quote, we look at the openings, the existing flashing, the condition of the block, and we check the permit requirements with West Park’s building department directly. Then we write allowances into the contract for the things we can’t see until the wall is open. If we find hidden damage, you get a written change order with an exact price before we touch it. You approve it in writing first. That’s the only way we work in West Park.
On SW 32nd Street, our crew opened up a 1962 CBS ranch for a full-frame replacement and found the original jalousie aluminum tracks so corroded from salt-laden humidity that the rough opening had rotted at the sill. We wrote a change order for new treated framing and flashing tape, then installed Simonton impact-rated double-hungs with low-E glass and argon fill. The homeowner approved every dollar in writing before we touched the opening. That’s not a special case for us. That’s a Tuesday.
Pricing for Window Replacement in West Park, FL
A straight insert replacement in West Park typically runs $180 to $340 per window for the glass unit itself, plus installation. Full frame replacement on a CBS ranch runs $700 to $1,400 per opening, depending on impact rating, glass package, and what we find when the old frame comes out.

Energy-efficient upgrades with low-E and argon fill run $60 to $110 more per unit than standard double-pane, but the cooling savings in a block house recover that within a few years.

FAQs - Window Replacement in West Park
Yes. West Park runs its own municipal building department, separate from Broward County, and any replacement that changes the window’s size, opening, or impact rating requires a permit. Even like-for-like insert replacements trigger a permit in most cases. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and verify inspection times directly with West Park before we quote, because their turnaround is not the same as neighboring cities. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you exactly what your specific job requires.
West Park sits inside Broward County’s wind-borne debris region, which means replacement windows must either be impact-rated to current Florida Building Code standards or protected by approved shutters. Most homeowners install impact glazing, since shutters on a 1960s jalousie opening are awkward at best. We install PGT, CGI, and ES Windows units that carry current Florida Product Approvals. We’ll note the design pressure rating on your quote so your insurance agent has it in writing. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free evaluation.
In most West Park homes, the answer is a full frame replacement. The jalousie frames on a 1950s or 60s ranch were never built for modern glazing, and by the time salt corrosion has taken hold, the frame itself has lost structural integrity. Trying to fit new glass into a pitted, corroded jalousie track would cost nearly as much and fail again in a few years. We’ll give you an honest assessment at the free estimate. Call (813) 320-9346 and ask us to take a look.
We inspect before we quote, then we write repair allowances into the contract for anything we can’t see until the wall is open: rotted wood bucks, failed flashing, cracked lintels, old wiring in the bay. If we find damage after the window comes out, you get a written change order with an exact price before we start the repair. No one touches anything without your written approval. That’s how we’ve worked in West Park for years, and it’s why homeowners trust us. Call (813) 320-9346 to schedule your free estimate.
Yes. A 1960s CBS ranch with original single-pane windows loses a huge share of its cooling load through the glass, especially on west-facing walls that take full afternoon sun. Swapping to low-E, argon-filled insulated units drops solar heat gain enough to show up on your FPL bill from the first full summer. Impact-rated ENERGY STAR windows do both jobs: they satisfy the wind-borne debris code and they cut heat gain. We install ECO Window Systems lines that carry both ratings. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll show you the numbers on paper.
