AfterWindow Company in Palm Springs North, FL
Most window and door jobs in Palm Springs North run between $650 and $2,800 per opening depending on whether it’s a standard vinyl replacement or a full impact-rated install with masonry modifications. We’re Lightwell Windows & Doors, and we specialize in the concrete-block ranch homes that dominate this neighborhood, where original jalousie windows and single-pane aluminum sliders need more than just a product swap, they need proper furring, sill extension, and code-compliant engineering. Call us at (562) 478-8017 for a free written estimate before any work starts.
Why Palm Springs North Homes Are Different
Palm Springs North sits roughly 10 – 15 miles inland from the Atlantic, but it’s still inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region. That means every window and door replacement must meet Florida Building Code impact requirements or include approved protection systems, no exceptions. The catch is that most homes here were built between the 1960s and 1980s with CBS (concrete block structure) walls and masonry-framed openings that are often irregularly sized by modern standards.
We’ve replaced enough windows in these ranches to know the pattern. Original louvered jalousie windows and single-pane aluminum sliders have sat untouched for 40 – 60 years. The frames have oxidized in the humidity. The sealant between frame and block has dried and cracked. And because Florida insurers are now actively dropping or surcharging policies without documented hurricane-rated openings, what used to be a someday project has become an urgent, near-universal need here.
Permits pull through Palm Beach County’s unincorporated building department, not a city office. County inspectors routinely flag masonry openings that prior owners patched or modified themselves, which means we sometimes need additional structural documentation or a licensed engineer’s sign-off before the product NOA gets approved and the rough inspection passes. We build that possibility into every timeline and price we write.
Our Main Palm Springs North Services
These are the three services Palm Springs North homeowners call us about most often, each with its own dedicated page for deeper detail.
Window Replacement in Palm Springs North
Window replacement here means removing original jalousie or aluminum slider units from masonry openings and installing impact-rated vinyl or aluminum frames that fit properly. We often need to fur out the opening, extend the sill, and use pet-safe sealants rated for South Florida’s daily summer thunderstorms and year-round humidity. Every job gets shoe covers, drop cloths, and a photo of the clean-up before we leave. Window Replacement in Palm Springs North
Window Installation in Palm Springs North
New window installation in Palm Springs North typically involves converting a former wall opening, adding a window where none existed, or finishing an addition to match the home’s new impact-rated openings. Because these CBS walls are structural, we coordinate closely with Palm Beach County inspectors and supply full engineering documentation when required. We explain the price before any work starts and follow our C.A.R.E. values on every visit: Clean up like it’s our own home, Ask before we move anything, Respect your time and quiet hours, Explain the price before the work.

Door Installation in Palm Springs North
Door installation covers entry doors, patio doors, and sliding glass doors in these same 1960s – 1980s ranch homes. The original door frames are often set directly into block with minimal flashing, so water intrusion at the sill is common. We install Therma-Tru and other impact-rated options with proper sill pans, pet-safe sealants, and full perimeter sealing. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every installation, not just the straightforward ones. Door Installation in Palm Springs North

What Palm Springs North 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."
