Call (954) 280-4413

This page is for homeowners who already own ES Windows products, live in Fort Lauderdale, and are noticing condensation between panes, frame drafts, fading upholstery, or energy bills that climb every summer. If your windows are underperforming, call (954) 280-4413. We’ll tell you what is happening, what it costs to fix, and whether it is worth fixing at all.

How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

ES Windows builds a solid product, but South Florida humidity, salt air, and UV exposure find every weak point eventually. Here is what we see on ES Windows energy-efficient units in Fort Lauderdale homes:

• Interior fogging on the ES-6000 series. The dual-pane argon fill in ES Windows ES-6000 units slowly leaks over time, and once humidity gets between the panes, the glass fogs and the thermal performance drops. The common culprit is a compromised edge seal along the lower spacer bar. We remove the insulated glass unit (IGU), confirm the seal failure, and rebuild it with new low-E glass matched to the original tint. That restores the energy rating without replacing the whole frame.
• Frame seal shrinkage on the ES-7000 line. The silicone bedding at the glass-to-frame junction on ES-7000 windows hardens and pulls back after a decade in Fort Lauderdale heat. Homeowners notice a fine crack around the glass edge and feel a draft on windy days. We clean the old bedding, re-bed the glass with fresh high-grade silicone, and reset the glazing beads. It closes the leak and stops the moisture creep that causes frame rot on the sill.
• Roller and track wear on ES-3000 sliding windows. ES-3000 sliders use nylon rollers that flatten in the heat and bind in the track, so the panel sits slightly off its gasket line and leaks conditioned air. We replace the rollers with OEM-equivalent parts, realign the panel, and compress-test the seal. This is a half-day job that usually keeps the window serviceable for another five to seven years.
• Low-E coating degradation on older ES-5000 fixed panels. The low-E coating on ES-5000 picture windows can start to show a hazy, almost greasy reflection after twelve to fifteen years of direct sun exposure, particularly on west-facing walls in Fort Lauderdale. The glass loses some reflective performance and the room heats up. The fix is an IGU replacement with a new low-E coating, and we match the visible light transmission so one window does not look different from its neighbors.
• Flashing and sill leaks on ES Windows installed before 2010. This is less about the window itself and more about how it was set. Older Fort Lauderdale ES Windows installs often used minimal flashing tape and no sill pan, so wind-driven rain finds a path under the frame. We pull the trim, install a proper pan flashing, seal the rough opening, and reset the window square. If the frame itself is rotted, we quote the replacement honestly rather than chasing a repair that will not hold.

Our ES Windows Energy-Efficient Windows Process

Every ES Windows job gets the same method, whether it is a single fogged IGU or a full retrofit of a three-bedroom house. It keeps the price honest and the work right.

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. You reach a live technician, not a voicemail tree. We ask about the symptoms, the window location, and the age of the unit. Then we schedule the visit.
2. 2
   We measure and diagnose in person. A background-checked, uniformed tech measures every opening twice, checks the seal integrity, tests frame square, and looks at how the window was originally flashed. The diagnosis is written down, not recited from memory.
3. 3
   We put the parts option on paper. We quote manufacturer OEM parts and quality aftermarket equivalents side by side when both are available, with the price difference stated in writing. ES Windows OEM IGUs carry their own warranty, and we register both warranty layers before we leave the driveway.
4. 4
   We do the repair or replacement. Most single-visit ES Windows service calls happen the same day. The work area is protected, and the old unit is removed without tearing up the surrounding frame.
5. 5
   We test and check before we leave. We compress-test the seal, operate the window, and confirm no drafts. Then we walk you through what was done and what to watch for.
6. 6
   The guarantee is yours in writing. Every job is covered by the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard. If it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork fights and no arguing.

What ES Windows Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Fort Lauderdale

Here is what we tell ES Windows owners on the Gulfstream side of town, and what applies from Victoria Park down to Riverland:

• Dual-pane IGU replacement (ES-6000, ES-5000): $240 to $480 per window installed, depending on glass size and whether low-E matching is required.
• Frame seal rebed and glazing reset (ES-7000): $180 to $320 per window, including silicone, beads, and labor.
• Roller and track rebuild (ES-3000 slider): $150 to $280 per panel, with OEM-equivalent rollers.
• Full ES Windows replacement unit installed: $900 to $1,600 per opening for standard sizes, more for large fixed panels or those needing impact-rated glass.

The big price movers are window size, glass type (clear versus low-E versus impact), and whether the frame itself is still sound. We do not charge for the estimate, and the number we quote on paper is the number on the bill. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free, written estimate.

Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work

Dale Kessler grew up in Sailboat Bend, and his father spent weekends resealing jalousie windows and cursing the same humidity we still work in today. That is the standard our company runs on: measure twice, quote on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.

We are not the cheapest bid, and we will not pretend to be. We are the last call a homeowner needs to make on an ES Windows problem. Our technicians work on ES Windows, Andersen, Pella, and PGT products regularly, so we can tell you honestly when a repair makes sense and when a replacement from another line is the better long-term play. We stand behind the work for 90 days with no fine print. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When you call (954) 280-4413, you get us, not a call center.

FAQs

Can you still get ES Windows parts in Fort Lauderdale?

Yes, most common ES Windows parts - IGUs, rollers, glazing beads, silicone bedding - are available through several Florida supply houses, and we keep the frequently used items in stock. The lead time on custom IGUs for large fixed panels can run seven to ten days, but standard sizes are usually available same week. Call (954) 280-4413 with your window model, and we’ll tell you the exact availability for your unit.

Will the price change once the work starts?

No. We quote the job in writing before we touch the window, and the number on the paper is the number on the bill. If we open up a window and find hidden rot or a structural issue we could not see, we stop, explain what we found, and give you a new written quote before doing anything further. You approve it, or we do the original flat-price work and leave the rest alone. That is a square deal.

Do you register the manufacturer warranty?

Yes. The Keystone Standard means both warranty layers - the manufacturer warranty on the glass and frame, and our 90-day workmanship guarantee - are registered in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. We tell you the duration of each warranty, who to call, and what is covered. No fine print that covers neither.

How long does an ES Windows repair take in Fort Lauderdale?

Most ES Windows repairs - IGU replacement, seal rebed, roller rebuild, glass replacement - are completed in a single visit, usually two to four hours per window. Full replacements of large fixed panels or job-of-multiple-window retrofit runs can take a full day or two, and we schedule that out in advance so you know exactly when we’ll be there. We’ll be there when we say.

If you have an ES Windows unit that is not performing and you want to know the honest fix and the straight price, call TruePane Windows & Doors at (954) 280-4413. The estimate is free, and we’ll write everything down before we do the work.
