AfterWindow Company in Lauderdale Lakes, FL
Most window and door jobs in Lauderdale Lakes run between $650 and $2,400 per opening, depending on whether the home needs impact-rated retrofit units into 1960s concrete block or standard replacements in newer garden condos. Because nearly every home here was built between 1960 and 1980, we’re almost always removing original single-pane aluminum jalousie or sliding windows and fitting modern impact-rated products into existing CBS rough openings. Call us at (562) 478-8017 to schedule your free estimate, and we’ll put a written price in your hands before any work starts.
Why Lauderdale Lakes Homes Are Different
Lauderdale Lakes sits roughly 10 miles inland, which leads a lot of longtime residents to assume they’re exempt from coastal building codes. They’re not. The entire city falls inside Broward County’s Wind-Borne Debris Region, so every replacement window and exterior door must meet Florida Building Code impact standards or have approved shutter protection. We’ve had homeowners argue this point with us until we pull the permit requirements up on the spot.
The housing stock is remarkably uniform: concrete-block ranch homes, duplexes, and low-rise garden condominiums platted during the 1960s through 1980s boom. Original aluminum-frame jalousie windows are still common, especially in the condo clusters along Northwest 36th Street and the residential streets between State Road 7 and Florida’s Turnpike. That aluminum pits and oxidizes in Lauderdale Lakes’s 80%+ humidity and intense UV, and the single-pane glass bleeds conditioned air year-round.
The 1970s garden condo complexes add another layer. Many operate under HOA covenants that mandate matching window profiles and grid patterns, often in colors discontinued decades ago. Sourcing replacement units that satisfy both the HOA’s aesthetic rules and the county’s impact code takes legwork that doesn’t come up in cities with newer, more varied construction.
Our Main Lauderdale Lakes Services
Lauderdale Lakes homeowners call us most often for these three jobs, each with its own local conditions and permitting path.
Window Replacement in Lauderdale Lakes
Window replacement here means pulling out original aluminum jalousie or single-pane sliders and fitting impact-rated vinyl or aluminum units into existing CBS rough openings. The buck framing often needs reframing after 40-plus years of salt-air oxidation, and we always verify whether the home sits in an HOA with color-matching requirements before ordering. Window Replacement in Lauderdale Lakes covers our full process, permit handling, and what the written quote includes.
Window Installation in Lauderdale Lakes
New window installation in Lauderdale Lakes typically involves enlarging an opening or adding a window where none existed, which means cutting into concrete block and installing a new lintel. Because every job triggers Broward County’s impact-rating requirements, we spec PGT or CGI units from the start rather than proposing standard glass that would fail inspection. Window Installation in Lauderdale Lakes explains how we protect floors and furniture during the cut-out, and how we handle the permit from application to final sign-off.
Door Installation in Lauderdale Lakes
Door installation covers front entry systems, patio sliders, and garden condo balcony doors, all of which must meet the same wind-borne debris standards as windows. Older Lauderdale Lakes homes often have 32-inch entries that need widening for modern accessibility, or rotted aluminum patio frames that have leaked into the slab for years. Door Installation in Lauderdale Lakes details our process for matching HOA requirements and keeping the home secure overnight if the job spans two days.

What pushes Lauderdale Lakes prices toward the high end: HOA-mandated custom colors or grid patterns that require special-order units, reframing of corroded aluminum bucks in older condos, and the additional labor of fitting impact-rated hardware into non-standard rough openings. What doesn’t push the price: we put the full number in writing before any work starts, and that number doesn’t change unless you add scope.

What Lauderdale Lakes Customers Say
"They replaced a big foggy picture window. Careful with the furniture, laid down protection, and left no mess at all. Calm and respectful crew, and the view is clear again."
- Teresa Okafor"Replaced six windows. The crew laid runners through the house and vacuumed each room as they finished. With a crawling baby, that no mess thing meant a lot. Windows are gorgeous."
- Rosalind Kemp"Lovely windows and a tidy install. One window came in a couple weeks late from the factory, so that opening finished after the others. They kept me posted and the rest was spotless."
