AfterFast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Sunrise
Window replacement in Sunrise, FL usually costs between $800 and $1,800 per window installed, depending on whether you’re swapping a builder-grade single pane for a standard vinyl unit or pulling a full-frame impact job on a 1970s CBS home. Most jobs in Sunrise finish in a single day once your units arrive at our shop. If the opening fails inspection or the frame is too far gone, the scope changes fast. Call (754) 310-3589 for a free in-home measure and a written quote that tells you exactly where your money is going.
Sunrise is not like a lot of South Florida cities. The homes here were built fast, mostly between the late 1960s and the mid-1980s, and a lot of the original aluminum and jalousie windows are still in place. That matters when you pull a permit. Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules apply to every opening, and Sunrise’s building department enforces them consistently. We know what passes and what gets red-tagged, because our crews work these streets every week.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
TruePane has been doing this work for over 42 years through the craft tradition Dale Kessler built. We’re not a franchise that drops a crew anywhere in the tri-county. Every TruePane technician is background-checked, uniformed, and trained the same way: measure every opening twice, quote the manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. That last part is the Keystone Standard. It’s why homeowners who hired us once in Sunrise call us again when the second story of the house finally needs doing.
Sunrise homeowners tell us the same thing on repeat. They want a company that answers the phone on the first ring and sends a person who knows the difference between a Welleby rancher and a New Orleans-style in Sunrise Lakes. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a call center in another state. When you call about a window in Sunrise, you get someone who knows the city’s permit posture, its HOAs, and its common frame failures.
Our standing offers apply across Sunrise: $50 off any repair over $250, an $89 seasonal tune-up, and a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans. Every job is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our Window Replacement Services in Sunrise
Full Frame Replacement
Full frame replacement means pulling the old window out to the studs and setting a new one with fresh flashing and a true, square opening. In Sunrise, this is the most common job we do on 1970s and 1980s CBS homes where the original aluminum frames have oxidized or the jalousies were never rated for impact in the first place. A full-frame replacement also gives you the chance to fix a roof-to-wall leak or a rotted buck that a sash-only swap would hide. Most full-frame impact jobs in Sunrise run $1,200 to $1,800 per opening for standard sizes.
Insert Window Replacement
An insert, or retrofit, replacement drops a new window into the existing frame without disturbing the surrounding stucco or drywall. It’s faster and less invasive, and it works when the original frame is still sound. In Sunrise, inserts make sense for newer homes built after Hurricane Andrew tightened the code, or where the frame is square and the HOA wants minimal exterior change. Inserts typically run $800 to $1,400 per window in Sunrise depending on size and glass package.
Vinyl Replacement Windows
Vinyl remains the most popular frame material in Sunrise because it handles South Florida humidity without the pitting and corrosion aluminum is known for here. We install quality vinyl lines, not builder-grade strips, and we match the look of newer planned communities like those around Sawgrass Mills. A vinyl replacement in Sunrise generally falls in the $800 to $1,300 range per window for standard double-hung or casement units. Impact-rated vinyl pushes higher but still makes sense for most single-family homes.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Energy-efficient replacement isn’t just about the electric bill, though that matters when Sunrise hits the long August stretch. It’s about glass that stops the year-round UV damage that fades furniture along the southern elevations of these planned-community homes. We quote low-E packages with the right solar heat gain coefficient for a Sunrise exposure, and we explain the difference between a simple tint and a true low-E coating so the choice is yours, not the salesman’s. A full-home energy upgrade in Sunrise, with standard sizes and mid-grade glass, commonly lands between $8,000 and $18,000.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. In Sunrise, PGT and CGI come up most often because their impact ratings and NOA paperwork align cleanly with Broward’s enforcement posture. We also work with CWS and ES Windows where the design calls for a specific line. Whatever the line, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing, with durations stated, before our truck leaves your Sunrise driveway. If you already own a window you like, we’ll quote it against comparable lines so you can see the cost difference on paper.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Jalousie windows that cannot be legally repaired. Sunrise’s 1970s housing stock is full of jalousie units, and under Broward’s HVHZ rules many of these jambs are unrepairable once they fail. You find out at permit stage that the whole opening has to be replaced, not just the glass.
- Fogged 1970s insulated glass with aluminum frames that have oxidized past the point of reglazing. A homeowner wants a simple glass swap, but the frame cannot hold the new sealed unit to code. The city requires a full opening replacement.
- Impact glass installed without a frame that matches the elevation’s design pressure. The glass label says impact, but the whole assembly gets red-tagged on inspection because the NOA doesn’t match. We see this on homes where an out-of-area contractor guessed instead of checking.
- Builder-grade single panes on street-facing elevations of 1980s ranchers. These were never compliant with current wind resistance requirements, and Sunrise’s building department will flag them when you touch any other opening. One window becomes three because the elevation has to meet code simultaneously.
Pricing for Window Replacement in Sunrise, FL
A single-hung impact window in Sunrise generally lands between $900 and $1,800 installed. Large or custom openings run $2,500 to $5,000 each. Whole-home packages on a typical three-bedroom CBS home usually fall in the $8,000 to $25,000 range depending on opening count, floor height, and whether you’re doing full-frame or inserts. What moves the price most in Sunrise is the opening count and the wind zone requirements on each elevation. Homes in master-planned communities west of University Drive that do not see direct exposure can use lower design pressures than homes facing east toward the Turnpike. We give you a written line-item quote before any work starts, and we never change the price unless you change the scope. Call (754) 310-3589 to schedule your free in-home measure.
What Window Replacement Costs in Sunrise
Impact windows in Sunrise run $800 to $1,500 per opening for standard sizes installed, with impact single-hungs running $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings push into the $2,500 to $5,000 range. Whole-home packages typically land between $8,000 and $25,000 or more depending on how many openings you have and whether the second-story floor height kicks in extra wind-load requirements. The free in-home measure and written quote settle the number before you commit. We do not give a price over the phone, and we will not ask you to sign anything until you have the numbers in front of you.
One thing to understand about Sunrise: custom fabrication runs 4-6 weeks once an order is placed. If you’re replacing standard-size openings that we can source quickly, installation can happen in as fast as a single day once your units arrive. If you have a house full of odd-sized 1970s openings, expect the order to take longer. We set that timeline in writing at quote time.
Florida Pays You Back
The incentive stack for Sunrise homeowners is real, but the final numbers sit with the programs and the insurance carriers, not with any installer. The My Safe Florida Home program has offered matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit can return 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. A wind-mitigation inspection, usually $75 to $150, opens the door to windstorm premium credits that average around 25% on the windstorm portion of a Florida policy. We do not promise a specific credit amount; we give you the paperwork and the product approvals the inspector and your carrier need.
One comparison worth making for Sunrise homes: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters only protect when someone is home to hang them, and they do nothing for seal failure or UV fade. Impact windows are permanent protection, no panels, no storage, no annual wrestling match. We install impact windows; we do not sell or install shutters.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Sunrise
Yes, you need a permit for a code-compliant replacement in a 1970s Sunrise home, and under Broward’s HVHZ rules the replacement window must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA). Sunrise’s building department will not pass a swap that skips the permit or uses glass without the right NOA for that elevation. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and confirm the labels match before the inspector shows up. Call (754) 310-3589 if you want to know exactly what your street-facing elevation will require.
No, most Sunrise HOAs in planned communities restrict brand and finish. You often need to submit the manufacturer line, frame color, and glass style for architectural review before the work starts. In the Welleby subdivision, for instance, our crew replaced original 1984 single-pane aluminum windows with PGT impact-rated casements, and the HOA had to approve the profile and the frame finish before pulls were permitted. We prepare the submittal package for your HOA and handle the back-and-forth. Call (754) 310-3589 and we’ll tell you what your board will likely ask for.
In most cases, yes, but the discount depends on a wind-mitigation inspection and your carrier’s filed rates. Impact windows with the right NOA for your elevation are a recognized wind-mitigation measure, and many Sunrise homeowners see a credit on the windstorm portion after the inspection is recorded. The inspection usually costs $75 to $150 and can lead to premium credits averaging around 25% on that windstorm portion. We provide the product approval paperwork before we leave the job. Call (754) 310-3589 if you want help gathering the documents your inspector will ask for.
Miami-Dade NOA is the stricter standard, and Sunrise requires it for every permitted window and door replacement because the city sits inside Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Florida Product Approval is a statewide approval that many other cities accept, but on its own it does not satisfy Sunrise’s enforcement when the NOA is required. Our quotes list the NOA and the design pressure for each opening, matched to the elevation. Call (754) 310-3589 for a quote that shows the exact approvals you’ll need.
Sometimes, but not as often in Sunrise as you’d hope. A lot of the original 1970s aluminum and jalousie frames in Sunrise cannot be reglazed to meet current HVHZ standards, and the city may require the whole opening to be replaced. We will look at the frame, check the label, and tell you honestly if a glass-only job will pass. If not, we’ll quote you the full-frame replacement with the NOA you need. Call (754) 310-3589 and we’ll schedule a measure.
Window Maintenance & Care for Sunrise Homes
In Sunrise, the humidity and salt air work on frames year-round, and the biggest maintenance issue we see is track corrosion on aluminum sliders and crusted weep holes that trap water. A $89 seasonal tune-up catches that before it becomes a rotted buck or a failed seal. We also inspect the sealant around the frame exterior, because a small crack at the stucco line is where water finds its way in during the wet season. For homeowners who want to stay ahead of it, we’ll check every opening, note what’s wearing, and give you a straight answer on what needs doing now versus what can wait.
If you live in Sunrise and you have original aluminum, jalousie, or builder-grade windows, the time to replace them is before the next inspection letter, not after. We’ll measure every opening twice, show you manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before we leave your driveway. That’s the Keystone Standard on every job. Call (754) 310-3589 for your free in-home measure and written quote. No pressure, no surprises, just a square deal from a local company that plans to be here in thirty years.
