AfterWindows & Doors Services in Miami Beach, FL
If you live on Miami Beach, you already know the score: standard windows and doors don’t survive here. Salt air eats aluminum hardware within a few years, hurricane season tests every seal and latch, and older buildings from the Art Deco era were never designed for modern wind loads. Replacing or upgrading windows and doors on this barrier island isn’t a cosmetic project, it’s structural protection. Winslow Windows & Doors handles the full scope, from impact-rated replacements that carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance to historically sensitive work in the South Beach districts. Call (727) 860-0593 and you’ll reach a real person, any hour, any day.

Why Miami Beach Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and his name is on everything we install. That’s not marketing language, it’s how we operate. We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru, among others, and we’ve spent years working inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Miami Beach presents a specific set of problems: HVHZ product approvals, Historic Preservation Board review in South Beach, and corrosive salt exposure that mainland installers rarely contend with. We deal with all three on a weekly basis.
Homeowners in South of Fifth, Mid-Beach, North Beach, and Bayshore call us because when they call, a person answers. Not a call center, not a voicemail loop. You get a live human being at (727) 860-0593, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Every technician who arrives at your door is background-checked and in uniform, so you know exactly who’s stepping onto your property before they knock.
Our Done Right Promise is the foundation of how we work. If it’s not done right, we come back and make it right. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Miami Beach
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the single most important upgrade for any Miami Beach property. Laminated glass, heavy-duty frames, and Miami-Dade NOA compliance mean your windows protect your home even when you’re not there to hang shutters. We install PGT and CGI impact-rated units sized and engineered for your specific openings.

Window Installation
Whether you’re building new or retrofitting an older condo, proper installation is what determines whether your windows actually perform. Plumb, square, and sealed correctly, installed to manufacturer spec and Miami-Dade code. We handle the full scope, from engineering letters to final inspection.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Miami Beach.
Window Replacement
Replacing windows in a 1930s South Beach building is nothing like a standard swap in a mainland subdivision. Custom sizing, historically appropriate sight lines, and HVHZ-rated glass all have to line up. We manage the entire process, including Historic Preservation Board submittals when required.
Learn more about our Window Replacement in Miami Beach.
Door Installation
Entry doors, impact-rated front doors, and interior doors all need to stand up to Miami Beach conditions. We install Therma-Tru doors with marine-grade hardware that won’t corrode in salt air. Every door is hung, sealed, and tested before we leave.
Call (727) 860-0593 to schedule your free door installation estimate.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Sliding glass doors are the weak point in most hurricane-prone homes. We install impact-rated sliders that meet the same HVHZ standards as our windows. Smooth operation, proper drainage, and locking mechanisms that actually lock.
Call (727) 860-0593 for a free estimate on impact sliding doors.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E glass and insulated frames cut cooling costs by 20-30% in Miami Beach’s year-round heat. You get UV protection for interiors and a quieter home, with noise reduction up to 40% depending on glass package. These units also qualify for federal energy tax credits.
Call (727) 860-0593 to discuss energy-efficient window options.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the largest opening in most homes, and they’re often the first thing to fail in a storm. We install impact-rated garage doors built to Miami-Dade standards, reinforced with the same attention to detail as our window work.
Call (727) 860-0593 for impact garage door pricing in Miami Beach.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Arched, circular, triangular, or otherwise unusual openings are common in Miami Beach’s older buildings. We source CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems units in custom geometries, sized to fit exactly what’s there. No oversized trim kits or awkward fillers.
Call (727) 860-0593 to discuss your custom window project.
Roof Repair
Leaks on a barrier island where wind drives rain sideways aren’t a quick patch job. We diagnose and repair roofing problems with the same thoroughness we bring to window work. Shingle, tile, or metal, we find the actual source and fix it.
Call (727) 860-0593 for roof repair on Miami Beach.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Miami Beach means HVHZ-rated underlayment, proper fastening, and materials that can handle decades of salt and sun. We install shingle, tile, and metal systems, pulling permits and passing inspections on every job.
Call (727) 860-0593 for a roof replacement estimate.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Each roofing material has different strengths in a coastal environment. Tile handles salt well but needs proper underlayment. Metal sheds wind load effectively but requires corrosion-resistant fasteners. We’ll give you straight answers about what works for your building type.
Call (727) 860-0593 to discuss roofing materials for your Miami Beach property.

Why Miami Beach’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Miami Beach sits entirely within Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone on a narrow barrier island flanked by the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay. Every window and door replacement here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, the most stringent product certification in the country. That’s not optional, it’s code. But the hurricane threat is only half the story. The salt-laden air that rolls off the ocean on one side and the bay on the other corrodes standard aluminum hardware and frames within a few years. We regularly see windows in the Mid-Beach area that are 10 years old and already pitting, with handles that snap and tracks that seize. Marine-grade stainless-steel hardware and thermally broken or PVC-clad frames aren’t an upgrade here, they’re the baseline for anything that’s going to last.
Properties in the South Beach Art Deco Historic District face an additional layer: Miami Beach Historic Preservation Board review. Replacement impact-rated units have to visually match 1920s-1940s steel-frame profiles, with slim sightlines and appropriate muntin patterns. That’s a product-sourcing challenge contractors don’t encounter across the causeway in mainland Miami. We’ve navigated those reviews enough times to know which manufacturers offer the right profiles and which engineering details will pass the board’s scrutiny.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Miami Beach
Honest numbers, because you deserve them before anyone steps foot on your property. Impact window replacement in Miami Beach typically runs $1,200-$2,800 per opening, depending on size, product line, and whether historic review applies. Impact sliding glass doors land between $4,000 and $9,000 installed. Standard entry door replacement runs $1,800-$4,500; impact-rated front doors start around $3,500. Custom geometric windows are quoted per opening because there’s no meaningful average. Every estimate is free and written line-item, no vague allowances.

Florida Pays Miami Beach Homeowners Back
If you’re upgrading to impact-rated windows or doors, Florida offers real money back. The My Safe Florida Home program provides matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors. The state also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost up to $600 per year for qualifying energy-efficient units. After installation, a wind-mitigation inspection ($75-$150) typically reduces the windstorm portion of your homeowners insurance premium by around 25%, though your carrier sets the final figure. We’ll point you toward every program that applies to your project, but we won’t guarantee a dollar amount the state or your insurer hasn’t committed to in writing.
One more thing worth understanding: impact windows beat hurricane shutters for most Miami Beach homeowners. Shutters only work if someone’s home to deploy them, and they do nothing for daily security, UV damage to interiors, or energy efficiency. Impact glass is always on, always protecting, and it never gets lost in a storage closet when a storm forms late in the season. If you’re comparing the two, think about what happens when a hurricane advisory hits while you’re out of town.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Miami Beach
Yes. Miami Beach is entirely within the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and every replacement window or door must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for the specific configuration installed. We only install products with current NOA approvals, and we match the design pressure rating to each opening, never exceeding +/-100. Call (727) 860-0593 to verify whether your existing units meet current code.
Most impact window replacements in Miami Beach run $1,200-$2,800 per opening installed, with project totals depending on the number of windows, product line, and whether your building is in the Historic District. Historic review adds engineering and submittal costs. For an exact line-item quote on your specific openings, call (727) 860-0593, estimates are free.
No. Our quotes are written and fixed. If we find concealed damage during installation, we stop, show you what we found, and agree on any change order before proceeding. You won’t see a higher final invoice than what we agreed to unless you approved the change in writing. That’s part of the Done Right Promise.
Yes, on every job that requires one. Miami Beach permitting includes Historic Preservation Board review for properties in protected districts, which we handle as part of the scope. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and make sure the final inspection passes before we consider the job complete.
Once your custom units arrive, installation is typically as fast as a single day for most homes. Custom fabrication runs 4-6 weeks from order to delivery, depending on the product line and size. We’ll give you a clear timeline before you commit, and we stick to it.
Almost always, yes. Jalousie windows leak air and water, provide little storm protection, and are a security risk in any ground-floor or accessible unit. Impact-rated replacements improve protection, cut cooling costs, and usually qualify for insurance premium reductions. We’ll help you evaluate whether your building’s association requirements affect the project.

What Miami Beach Customers Say
"We sat out a hurricane behind the windows Ed put in. The gusts threw a neighbour's trampoline down the street and the loudest thing in our house was the kettle. I rang him after to say thank you and he answered his own phone, same as always."
- Thaddeus Okonkwo"He replaced the front door and the garage door in the same week, both rated for impact, and lined the frames up so straight my level had nothing to say. My wife stopped hearing the highway from the front room."
- Maximilian Vasquez"The old aluminium sliders howled every afternoon storm and swelter came straight through the glass. The new impact sliders shut with a sound like a bank vault and the back rooms finally hold their temperature."
- Percival Whitcombe
