Tangerine sits on the eastern edge of Lake Apopka, where morning fog off the water settles over older farmhouses and mid-century single-family homes. That lakeside humidity is hard on window seals and door frames. If you’re noticing condensation between panes, a sliding door that binds in July, or rot at the sill, we can help. TruePane Windows & Doors handles installation, replacement, and repair for every opening in the house, and a live person answers when you call (954) 280-4413.

Why Tangerine Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
We’ve been doing this long enough to know what Lake Apopka’s moisture does to a window over ten or fifteen years. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule that still hangs in the shop: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s the standard on the first visit, and it’s the baseline for any callback. We’ve put windows and doors into homes along Sadler Road, out toward the farms near Binion Road, and through the older neighborhoods around Starke Lake. Homeowners here tend to call us after a previous contractor left them with a fogged seal and a door that never latched right in August. Our answer is the same every time: we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, and every job carries the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Tangerine
Window Installation
New-construction and full-frame window installation, sized to Tangerine’s older rough openings rather than forced into stock sizes. We measure every opening twice and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Tangerine.
Door Installation
Entry doors, French doors, and patio doors installed square, shimmed, and flashed for a climate that sends a wet fog through every gap it can find. We hang, adjust, and weatherstrip every door so it operates in January the way it does in July.
Learn more about our Door Installation in Tangerine.
Window Replacement
Replacement for the jalousie and single-pane aluminum units still common in Tangerine’s older farmhouses, including full-frame replacement when the rough opening has rot behind the old trim. We cannot do a legitimate insert job over a rotted sill, so we don’t pretend to.

Impact Windows & Doors
Impact Windows & Doors in Tangerine, tested for Orange County’s wind-load requirements, with Florida Product Approval documentation on file. If a Tangerine home was built before modern code, we walk through what retrofit looks like and what it costs before any work starts.
Call (954) 280-4413 for impact window and door pricing in Tangerine.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in Tangerine with Low-E double-pane units that hold up under Lake Apopka’s thermal cycling, which is harder on insulated glass than most people realize. We’ll show you the condensation-resistance ratings and explain what they mean for your particular wall orientation.
Call (954) 280-4413 for energy-efficient window options in Tangerine.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding & Patio Doors - Tangerine replacements for the lake-facing rear walls where fog and humidity concentrate. We set the track level, flash the sill properly, and adjust the rollers so the door doesn’t bind when the frame swells in summer.
Call (954) 280-4413 for sliding and patio door estimates in Tangerine.
Glass Railing Systems
Glass Railing Systems - Tangerine for decks, porches, and the lake-view additions common in this part of Orange County. We quote railing as a system, not per piece, so the number you get is the number you pay.

Custom Windows & Doors
Custom sizing for the non-standard openings in Tangerine’s older agricultural homes and manufactured housing stock. We order to the measured opening, not a stock size forced in with gap filler and a shrug.

Why Tangerine’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lake Apopka does not sit passively on the horizon here. It produces persistent morning fog and an elevated humidity band that reaches into the east side of Tangerine more than most people expect. Double-pane insulated glass seals fail faster under that kind of chronic moisture exposure, and wood door frames and sills absorb enough water vapor over time to rot behind the trim where you cannot see it until the job is opened up. We have pulled original 1960s jalousie windows from Tangerine farmhouses and found rotted OSB or sill plates hiding behind fresh-looking exterior paint. That is not a rare occurrence out here. Any window or door project on the Lake Apopka side needs moisture-resistant framing materials, a proper water-resistive barrier behind the new unit, and Florida Product Approval-rated glass selected for the home’s specific exposure category. We account for all of it on every quote, and we will show you what we found once the old unit comes out.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Tangerine
Replacement costs in Tangerine run higher than drier inland areas, largely because of the rot remediation and custom sizing that older lakeside homes so often require. Here is what we typically see:
| Project | Typical Range in Tangerine |
|---|---|
| Window replacement, per unit (standard size) | $650 - $1,400 |
| Full-frame window replacement (with rot remediation) | $1,100 - $2,500 |
| Entry door replacement | $1,400 - $3,800 |
| Sliding patio door replacement | $1,800 - $4,500 |
| Impact-rated window, per unit | $950 - $2,200 |
Most jobs are completed in a single visit. You get a written line-item quote before we start, and the price does not change once we open the wall unless you approve the change in writing first. We offer a $50 discount on any repair over $250, a maintenance check, and a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Tangerine
Window replacement in Tangerine typically runs $650 to $2,500 per window depending on whether it’s a standard insert or a full-frame replacement, with the higher end common in older farmhouses where rot remediation is required. Impact-rated units add another $300 to $800 per window. Call (954) 280-4413 for an exact quote on your openings, and the estimate is free.
No. You get a written line-item quote before we start, and the price holds. The only exception is if we open a wall and find damage no one could have seen from the outside, at which point we stop, show you what we found, and get your written approval before proceeding. We do not do surprise change orders on invoice day.
Yes, but the honest answer is that most fogged double-pane units in Tangerine should be replaced, not “repaired.” The lake humidity that caused the seal failure is still there, and a resealed unit will fail again faster in this microclimate than it would in east Orlando. We’ll tell you which route is actually worth the money for your situation, and we’ll show you replacement pricing side by side with any repair option. Call (954) 280-4413.
Yes. Orange County requires permits for most replacement and installation work, and we pull them, coordinate inspection, and verify compliance with the Florida Building Code before we call the job done. Everything is in writing, including the permit number.
Most standard-sized replacement jobs in Tangerine take one day. Custom-ordered units or full-frame replacements involving rot remediation and water-resistive barrier work can run two to three days. We finish the job before we leave, and if it’s not done right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right with no paperwork fight.
Call TruePane Windows & Doors for a Free Estimate in Tangerine
If your windows or doors are fogged, binding, drafty, or simply old, call us before you guess at a price.

We’ll measure twice, quote in writing, and stand behind the work with both warranty layers registered before we leave the driveway. You’ll see the difference between a company that finishes the job and one that owns it. That difference matters out here, where the lake has been testing windows and doors longer than most contractors have been in business.

What Tangerine Customers Say
"Storm door and a new back entry door. Small job, but they treated it like one that mattered. Screws in the hinges are stainless, the sweep actually seals, and the invoice matched the phone quote to the dollar."
- Vernon H."Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L."Eleven windows replaced in two days. The crew chief, Marcus, showed me the level on every single frame before they caulked it. My wife noticed the street noise was gone before I did."
- Ronald P.
