If you’re looking at a fogged seal or a door that binds, call (954) 280-4413 and a live person will answer, day or night.

Why Clewiston Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Clewiston is not a market where a franchise playbook works. The homes here are different, the climate is different, and the seasonal harvest brings a particular kind of grime that most window companies have never had to solve. We have. Our technicians know what cane ash does to a window track because they’ve been cleaning it out of sill weep holes in neighborhoods like Harlem and the historic Ridgewood area for years. They also know the old U.S. Sugar housing stock: concrete block construction, original jalousie windows, and door frames that have swollen and shifted over sixty or seventy years of Florida summers.
Every technician who walks onto a Clewiston property is background-checked, uniformed, and trained to measure twice before ordering a single unit. That’s not a slogan. It’s the Keystone Standard, and it’s the only way we work. Homeowners we serve here tend to stay in their homes for decades, and they remember the contractor who left them with a fogged seal and a door that binds in July. We do not intend to be that memory.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Clewiston
Window Installation
We install new windows in Clewiston homes, from replacement double-hungs to full-frame installations in older CBS construction. Every unit is shimmed square, flashed correctly, and sealed against the humidity that comes off Lake Okeechobee year-round.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Clewiston.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, back doors, French doors, and storm doors all go in plumb and square. In Clewiston’s moisture-heavy air, we set door frames with sealed thresholds and proper drainage so they don’t bind when the humidity spikes.

Window Replacement
The bulk of Clewiston’s housing stock still carries single-pane aluminum jalousies or sliders from the fifties and sixties. Replacing those with impact-rated or energy-efficient units changes how a home breathes, and how much the air conditioner runs.

Impact Windows & Doors
Clewiston sits in a hurricane-prone zone, and Florida Building Code requires impact-rated or storm-panel-ready openings for most replacements. We are an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and CWS, and we walk you through the code requirements in plain language before any order is placed.
Energy-Efficient Windows
The heat and humidity here run hard from May through October. Low-E glass, argon fills, and properly sealed frames cut cooling costs in a house that sits directly against the lake’s moisture load.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliders in Clewiston take a lot of abuse: sand, ash, lake wind, and decades of sun. We install and true up sliding glass and patio doors so they glide on their tracks instead of grinding off them.
Glass Railing Systems
Homes along the lakefront and newer builds in western Clewiston often want glass railing systems that hold up to sun exposure without yellowing or delaminating. We source panels rated for Florida UV conditions and set them in frames that drain properly.
Custom Windows & Doors
Some Clewiston homes have non-standard openings from decades of additions and carport conversions. We order custom-sized units to fit the actual rough opening, not the other way around.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Clewiston
Our crews work throughout Clewiston, including the older blocks near Clewiston High School and the homes off Sugarland Highway, the Ridgewood and Harlem neighborhoods, and the lake-side developments south of the Herbert Hoover Dike. We typically have a technician on-site in Clewiston within a day or two of your call, depending on the scope.

Why Clewiston’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Every October through April, Clewiston’s sugarcane harvest brings field burning south of town. Locals call the drifting harvest smoke “black snow.” That fine cane ash settles into window tracks, packs into sill weep holes, and grinds away at weatherstripping with every open and close. We regularly find window sills on Clewiston homes where standing water pooled because the weep channels were packed solid with ash, which then rotted wood sub-sills or pitted the aluminum frames. Clearing and sealing weep channels is a standard step on our Clewiston jobs, and it’s one most Florida window crews have never had to do.
Then there is the lake. Sitting on the southern shore of Lake Okeechobee means the air carries constant moisture. Aluminum window frames and door hardware corrode faster here than they do even thirty miles inland. Combine that humidity with the age of the housing stock, most of it built from the 1950s through the 1980s for U.S. Sugar workers, and you have a lot of homes that still carry original single-pane jalousies. Those windows do almost nothing against heat, humidity, or wind. Replacing them is not a cosmetic upgrade in Clewiston. It’s a structural and financial decision.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Clewiston
What you’ll pay in Clewiston depends on the opening, the unit, and what’s behind the old frame once we remove it. That said, honest ranges help. Here’s what a typical project can look like:

- Impact-rated window (laminate glass, FBC approved): $1,200-$2,800 per unit

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Clewiston
Window replacement in Clewiston typically runs $850 to $1,600 per standard window installed, with impact-rated units ranging from $1,200 to $2,800 each. Older CBS homes with jalousies may need additional frame work because the original openings were not built for modern sealed units. The best way to get an exact number is to call (954) 280-4413 and schedule a free estimate; we’ll measure every opening and hand you a written line-item quote.
Yes, for most replacement windows and doors in Clewiston, the Florida Building Code requires impact-rated or storm-panel-ready openings because the area sits in a hurricane-prone wind zone. Your insurance policy likely expects it too. We’ll walk you through exactly what your specific structure requires before you order anything.
The cane ash from harvest season, what locals call black snow, will pack into tracks and weep holes over time and begin to degrade weatherstripping if it’s not cleared. On new installs in Clewiston, we make sure weep channels are properly drilled and sealed at the time of installation, and we’ll show you how to rinse the tracks during harvest months. It’s a maintenance step unique to this area.
We pull every permit required by Hendry County and the City of Clewiston for window and door work, and we schedule and pass the inspections before we call the job complete. No callbacks for missing paperwork. That’s part of the Keystone Standard, and it’s the only way we work.
No. The number we write on your estimate is the number you pay. If we find hidden rot or framing damage when the old window comes out, we stop work, show you what we found, and give you a written change order before proceeding. We never send a bill that looks different from the agreement. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate and see the numbers for yourself.

What Clewiston Customers Say
"Two entry doors. Showed up when they said, second day was a half day like they said, and the painter they recommended confirmed the frames were dead plumb. The financing was explained in actual dollars, not a brochure."
- Janet R."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.
