AfterWindow Company in Wilton Manors, FL
Most window and door projects in Wilton Manors run $8,500 – $22,000 for full-home impact upgrades, with single openings starting around $1,200 installed. We’re Lightwell Windows & Doors, and we specialize in the permitted, full-house replacements this city’s mid-century housing stock demands. Our crews know the difference between a standard impact install and one that needs marine-grade hardware for canal-front salt exposure. Call (562) 478-8017 to schedule your free estimate.
Wilton Manors sits on roughly one square mile of dense, mid-century neighborhoods where original 1950s – 1960s concrete block ranch homes still carry jalousie windows and thin aluminum frames that won’t pass current Florida Building Code. That compact geography means we can often walk a job site, spot the corrosion patterns, and spec the right product before we ever unload a truck. Our dispatch is coordinated from our Miami office, but the crew that arrives at your door knows Wilton Manors homes by heart.
Why Wilton Manors Homes Are Different
The housing here is almost entirely CBS ranch construction from 1950 to 1970, and many owners are only the second or third to hold the deed. Those original aluminum frames weren’t built for Broward County’s current impact-glazing requirements, and the non-standard opening sizes mean off-the-shelf units rarely fit without modification.
Salt-air corrosion hits harder here than in inland Broward cities. Wilton Manors sits just 3 – 4 miles from the Atlantic, with Middle River canal fingers threading through the city. Canal-front homes along those waterway branches see failed perimeter seals and corroded aluminum sills within 10 – 12 years of installation. We spec marine-grade hardware and stainless fasteners even on standard impact jobs because we’ve learned what happens when we don’t.
The renovation market moves fast here. High demand and rapid turnover mean most window and door replacements are full-house, permitted upgrades rather than piecemeal swaps. Every product we install carries Miami-Dade or Broward NOA approval, and we pull permits on every job that requires them.
Our Main Wilton Manors Services
These are the two services Wilton Manors homeowners call us about most, though we handle full-scope projects across all three areas.
Window Replacement in Wilton Manors
Window replacement here means removing original or poorly updated aluminum frames, often with galvanic corrosion at fasteners and sill plates, and installing impact-rated units that meet current Florida Building Code. We measure every opening individually because mid-century Wilton Manors homes rarely have standardized sizes. Our crew arrives with shoe covers and drop cloths, and we photograph the clean-up before we leave. Window Replacement in Wilton Manors covers full-home upgrades, single-opening repairs, and the permit process for CBS ranch properties.
Window Installation in Wilton Manors
New window installation in Wilton Manors typically involves additions, converted carports, or new construction on infill lots where the original 1950s footprint gets expanded. We spec PGT or CGI impact units with Broward NOA approval, and we coordinate rough-in inspections with the city before sealing walls. Our technicians follow C.A.R.E. values on every visit: Clean up like it’s our own home, Ask before moving anything, Respect quiet hours, and Explain the price before starting work. Window Installation in Wilton Manors details our process for additions and new construction.
Door Installation in Wilton Manors
Door installation in Wilton Manors covers front entry systems, patio sliders, and impact-rated French doors for canal-front homes where water intrusion is a real concern. We see a lot of corroded thresholds on river-facing properties, and we spec marine-grade sill pans and stainless hardware as standard on those jobs. Every door gets a written price before we start, with no change orders once work begins. Door Installation in Wilton Manors explains our entry and patio door options for mid-century and renovated homes.

What Wilton Manors 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."
