We work in Pittman regularly, and we know what the housing stock here demands. Out on County Road 13A, off Greenbriar Road, and through the older lots west of Hastings, we see the same pattern: wood-frame homes and manufactured units built before Florida’s impact-rated code enforcement, with window openings that do not match today’s standard sizes. A company that quotes off-the-shelf dimensions from a catalog will lose money or leave gaps. We measure every opening twice. Our Impact Windows & Doors team treats Pittman’s retrofit work as a craft problem, not a parts order.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Pittman’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 after spending decades as a second-generation glazier, and the rule on his whiteboard has not changed: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard carries out to Pittman on every truck. Background-checked, uniformed technicians run the same measuring process on a 1980s double-wide off Greenbriar as they would on a new build in St. Johns County. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before leaving the driveway, and our Done Right Promise covers workmanship without paperwork fights.
Homeowners in Pittman who have lived in their house for twenty or thirty years call us because they plan to stay. They want a company that will still answer the phone if a seal fails or a door binds. We answer live, 24 hours a day. We sponsor county fairs and church roof funds because we plan to be here in thirty years, same as the people we work for.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Pittman
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most Pittman homes we survey have single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows that predate Florida’s post-Andrew code. We replace those with impact-rated, low-E units sized to the actual rough opening, not the catalog. In manufactured home clusters, that often means custom ordering from manufacturers like CGI or CWS, because HUD openings run an inch or two off Florida residential dimensions. Shimming a stock window into that gap is not the same as a proper fit. We order it right.

Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding doors on older Pittman homes tend to be hollow-core or thin aluminum frames that rack out of square as the wood subfloor settles. A binding door in July is usually a symptom of a frame that was never flashed right. We rebuild the rough opening with pressure-treated lumber where rot is present, tape the perimeter with butyl flashing, and set a fusion-welded impact-rated slider. You get a door that opens with one hand, not two.

Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors in Pittman’s older stock are often solid wood or thin steel with no impact rating. They swell in summer humidity and leave daylight at the threshold. We install rated fiberglass and steel entry systems with stainless hinges and multi-point locks, sized to the existing jamb depth. For French door retrofits, we prefer factory-assembled impact-rated units over field-glazing, because the factory seal is what actually keeps the argon in and the storm water out.

Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors in Pittman are frequently unbraced, single-skin steel or wood, and they are the first thing to fail in a wind event. A reinforced, impact-rated garage door with a proper track system and load-rated hinges keeps the pressure envelope intact. We measure the opening and the headroom. Then we quote the door that fits, not the one that’s in stock.

Trusted Brands We Service in Pittman
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Pittman work we most often quote CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems side by side on paper. Each line has a different warranty structure and lead time. We register both warranty layers in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway. If a unit needs service down the road, we carry common parts for these lines on the truck instead of making you wait on a distributor.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Pittman Homes
- Rot at the sill and rim joist. Northeastern Florida’s summer downpours and high humidity push water through unflashed jalousie openings. By the time the window is replaced, the framing underneath often needs rebuilding too.
- Fogged insulated glass in ten years or less. Low-quality sealed units lose their argon fill fast in this climate. We see fog between panes on units that should have lasted twenty years.
- HUD rough openings that don’t match stock sizes. Manufactured homes built to HUD specs have window openings an inch or two off Florida residential code dimensions. Off-the-shelf impact windows leave gaps unless heavily shimmed or custom ordered.
- Hollow-core exterior doors on older homes. Many Pittman homes still have builder-grade doors that provide almost no wind resistance and warp in the summer. These need full-frame replacement, not just a new slab.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Pittman
Most do not. HUD-code manufactured homes use rough openings that differ from Florida residential code dimensions by an inch or more, so a stock impact window will not seal properly without heavy shimming or a custom order. We measure every opening on-site and quote the correct unit for that opening. Call (954) 280-4413 and we’ll come measure yours.
High humidity and temperature swings stress the edge seal on low-quality insulated glass units. Once argon leaks out, condensation forms between panes. The fix is full unit replacement with a fusion-welded, impact-rated frame and a factory-sealed IGU. We register the manufacturer warranty in writing so the replacement is covered.
In most Pittman homes, no. The existing wood frames around jalousie or single-pane windows are usually too deteriorated to support a heavy impact-rated laminated glass unit. The frame is part of the system. Rebuilding the jambs and installing a complete rated window is the path that meets code and holds a warranty.
Expect a 25-40% reduction in cooling load from the window portion of the home depending on orientation and shading. West-facing single-pane windows in unshaded Pittman homes are the worst offenders. Low-E impact units cut solar heat gain and air leakage together. Your exact number depends on your home, and our estimator can walk you through it.
Yes, once a replacement or renovation permit is pulled, the new windows must meet current Florida Building Code and wind zone requirements for the structure’s location, including HUD-code homes. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and provide the wind mitigation documentation your insurer may require. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate.
