AfterFast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Boca Raton
Window replacement in Boca Raton runs $900-$2,400 per opening for impact-rated units, with full-frame tear-outs on Arvida-era homes landing between $1,400 and $3,800 per window depending on size, glass package, and what we find behind the old frame. Most jobs in Boca Raton take one to two days once the Architectural Review Committee signs off. If you’re east of I-95, salt air is eating your frames faster than it does a mile inland, and that changes what we specify. Call (954) 280-4413 and we’ll walk the house with you, measure every opening twice, and put the quote on paper.
We’re Window Replacement contractors who work in Boca Raton every week, not a franchise that rolls a truck down from some regional hub when the phone rings. We know the ARC process at Boca West, Broken Sound, Woodfield, and the rest. We know which communities will reject a frame color on sight and which want the Mediterranean profile kept. That local knowledge is the difference between a permit that clears in three weeks and one that bounces back twice.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Boca Raton’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
Dale Kessler started this company in 2008 because he kept seeing the same two failures on job after job: out-of-true installs and warranties that evaporated the first time a homeowner asked a question. That’s why every job we do carries the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing, with durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway. No paperwork fights. No fine print that covers neither.
Boca Raton customers call us for a specific reason: they’ve been through the insurance renewal letter that says impact documentation missing, and they need it fixed before the next hurricane season. We’ve replaced windows in every corner of Boca Raton, from the gated golf communities off Glades Road to the older ranch homes in Boca Teeca and the high-rises along A1A. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before they leave.
A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form. When you call about window replacement in Boca Raton, you’ll talk to someone who can answer questions about ARC submittals, impact ratings, and lead times from our first sentence to the last.
Our Window Replacement Services in Boca Raton
Full Frame Replacement
Full frame replacement means the old window comes out down to the rough opening, studs and all. We find rot, we find failed flashing, we find corroded jamb anchors from thirty years of salt air working through the stucco. A full-frame job in Boca Raton runs $1,400-$3,800 per window, and in older homes east of I-95, that’s usually the right call. The old aluminum frames on Arvida-era homes don’t just look tired. They’ve lost their structural connection at the corners, and putting a new sash into a weak frame is a waste of a new window.
Insert Window Replacement
If the existing frame is square, plumb, and structurally sound, an insert replacement drops a new window into the old frame. In Boca Raton, this works best in newer construction, typically post-2000 builds in communities like Via Verde or the townhomes near Town Center Mall. Insert replacement runs $900-$1,800 per opening for impact-rated units. We’ll tell you honestly when an insert makes sense and when the frame is too far gone. Upfront pricing, no surprise line items on the bill.
Storm Window Replacement
Some homeowners skip full impact windows and install storm-rated panels or secondary storm windows instead. Storm window replacement in Boca Raton runs $500-$1,100 per opening. If your house is in a covenant-controlled community, check the ARC guidelines before committing. Some boards will not approve a storm window that changes the exterior profile, and you’ll be back to square one with a purchase you can’t install.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Replacing single-pane aluminum with low-E, argon-filled impact glass cuts cooling costs in Boca Raton by as much as 25 percent during summer months. We quote energy packages from PGT, CGI, and Ply Gem side by side on paper so you can see the difference in U-factor, solar heat gain coefficient, and price per unit. An energy-efficient impact package in Boca Raton typically adds $150-$400 per window over the base impact spec, and it pays back faster here than inland because your AC runs ten months a year.
We also handle historic window restoration for the older ranch and Mediterranean revival homes where the ARC wants preservation over replacement. That’s a specialty job, but we do it right.

Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Boca Raton Homes
- ARC rejection before permit submittal: Contractors who don’t know Boca’s gated communities submit a frame color or glass type the Architectural Review Committee won’t approve, and the whole job stalls for months. We’ve built submittal packages for Boca West, Broken Sound, Woodfield Country Club, Boca Pointe, and the rest, and we know what each committee wants before we write the first line of the permit.
- Corroded aluminum frames east of I-95: Salt air off the Atlantic works on aluminum frames, jamb anchors, and hardware. We find zinc-coated fasteners that have turned to dust inside the wall cavity. Our flashing tape and stainless hardware spec is standard on every coastal job, not an upcharge.
- Non-impact glass without documentation: We see homes where someone installed impact-rated glass but never gave the homeowner the paperwork the insurance carrier required. When the policy comes up for renewal, the carrier non-renews. We register both warranty layers and provide impact documentation for your insurance file on every install.
- Jalousie windows in older western communities: Original louvered-glass jalousies are categorically prohibited under current Florida Building Code wind standards, but some HOA architectural guidelines in Arvida-era communities want the vintage ranch look preserved. We find the impact-rated replacement profile that satisfies the ARC and the building inspector in the same submittal.

Coastal-spec pricing matters here. A window built for a home west of 441 doesn’t need the same hardware or flashing as one a half-mile from the Intracoastal, and we won’t sell you the cheap spec on a coastal house just to win the bid. The difference between marine-grade stainless hardware and zinc-coated hardware is maybe $75 per window at install. Replacing corroded hardware in five years is $400 per window. The cheap spec costs more within a decade, and that’s before we talk about what the failed seal does to your cooling bill. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate, written line-item, fixed pricing with no change orders.
Our pricing in Boca Raton reflects the dual-approval process we have to navigate. We factor ARC submittal time and Palm Beach County permit fees into every quote, so you see the full number before we start. Some companies give a low bid and then “discover” the ARC changes after the contract is signed. We don’t work that way. The quote is the quote.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Boca Raton
The ARC approval process requires you to submit a completed architectural modification application with manufacturer product specs, frame color chips, glass type, and profile style drawings before Palm Beach County will even accept the permit application. Most Boca Raton ARC committees review submittals monthly or bi-monthly, so plan four to six weeks for ARC approval plus another two to three weeks for county permit issuance. We prepare the submittal package to match your community’s specific standards, because a rejected submittal resets the clock. Call (954) 280-4413 and we’ll tell you exactly what your community’s ARC requires.
Yes. Palm Beach County is a wind-borne debris region, which means all replacement windows and doors must be impact-rated or paired with approved shutter systems, regardless of whether the home is east or west of I-95. The requirement applies to every residence in Boca Raton, including single-family homes, condos, and townhomes. We quote impact-rated products as standard, and we provide the documentation your insurance carrier needs.
You replace original jalousie windows with an impact-rated fixed or casement unit that matches the community’s architectural standard, because jalousies are categorically prohibited under current Florida Building Code wind standards. In Arvida-era communities where the HOA wants the vintage ranch look preserved, we find an impact-rated profile that satisfies the ARC committee and the building inspector in the same submittal. We’ve done this in the western communities repeatedly, and we can show you the profile options before you commit.
Salt air near the Intracoastal accelerates corrosion on aluminum frames, jamb anchors, sash hardware, and fasteners, which means coastal homes need marine-grade stainless hardware and sealed flashing details that inland homes don’t. The salt spray carries chloride that eats zinc-coated steel and standard aluminum within a few years, especially on east-facing elevations. We specify stainless and hot-dip hardware on every coastal job, and that’s why our coastal quotes run slightly higher than our inland quotes for the same window. It’s not an upcharge. It’s the right spec.
Yes, energy-efficient impact windows with low-E coatings and argon fill typically cut cooling costs by 15 to 25 percent in Boca Raton, where air conditioning runs ten months a year, and the savings offset the coastal-spec premium within five to seven years. The payback is faster here than inland because your AC is running harder against Florida heat and humidity. We quote energy packages from PGT, CGI, and Ply Gem side by side so you can see the exact price difference and the projected savings before you decide.
