Fast, Reliable Window Installation Across Lauderdale Lakes
Window installation in Lauderdale Lakes runs $850 – $2,900 per opening for most condo and single-family jobs, with impact-rated units required by Broward County’s high-velocity hurricane zone (HVHZ) code typically landing between $1,400 and $3,200 installed. We schedule most Lauderdale Lakes projects within 5 – 10 business days and complete standard replacements same-day once materials are on site. Call (754) 354-1396 for a written, line-item quote before any work starts.
Our crews know the mid-rise condos along Oakland Park Boulevard and State Road 7, the single-family pockets near Vincent Torres Park, and the older apartment buildings off NW 31st Avenue. That local familiarity matters because window openings in Lauderdale Lakes buildings from the 1970s and 1980s are rarely square, rarely uniform, and always subject to HVHZ design pressure requirements that generic installers miss. We field-measure every opening, specify the right impact product, and put the price in writing first.
Why Juniper Windows Fort Lauderdale Is Lauderdale Lakes’s Preferred Window Installation Company
Lauderdale Lakes homeowners and condo board members call us because we do not treat a 1982 concrete block building like a new construction job. The rough openings here drift by up to 3/8 inch from nominal, which means a box-store window jammed into that space leaks at the jamb within two seasons. We measure every opening with a laser before ordering, and when the variance is beyond tolerance we custom-order the impact unit to match the actual rough opening rather than shimming and hoping.
Our team is led by Sean Mackey, who has spent more than two decades managing window and door installations across Broward County. Every Juniper technician who shows up at a Lauderdale Lakes address is background-checked and uniformed, and you get a live arrival time you can track before we park the van. Laid out simply: a real person answers our phone 24/7, the price is locked in writing before work begins, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise covers parts and labor for a full year after installation.
We are part of the Relay Home Co. family, founded in 2001. Each Juniper location is independently owned and operated under the Relay Visibility Guarantee. That means before-and-after photos of every job, a digital invoice you can pay from a link, and no estimate that morphs into a surprise change order at the door. Our Window Installation team handles replacements, new construction openings, and full condo building phases.
Bay Window Installation in Lauderdale Lakes
Bay window installation in Lauderdale Lakes typically costs $2,400 – $4,800 per unit for impact-rated products, depending on whether the projection is a three-lite, four-lite, or five-lite configuration and whether the existing floor framing in the older concrete structures needs reinforcement. A bay window is a projecting assembly of three or more windows that extends past the exterior wall line, and in Lauderdale Lakes it almost always requires a walk-out inspection of the existing cantilever and seat board before we order anything.
Structural Reinforcement for Older Condo Units
The 1970s and 1980s condos around Lauderdale Lakes were built with concrete block walls and flat slab floors. When a bay window goes in, the floor beneath it may not be framed to carry the projection weight plus the new impact glazing. We open the area from the interior, inspect what is actually there, and sister or replace the framing as needed before the window unit arrives. Getting a clear written price for that structural work upfront is the difference between a clean install and a surprise invoice.
HVHZ Compliance for Projecting Assemblies
Bay windows sit proud of the wall plane, which makes them more exposed to wind pressure than a flat-mounted window. In Lauderdale Lakes the product must carry a Miami-Dade HVHZ approval for the exact rough opening, not a generic Florida product approval. We specify PGT, CGI, or ES Windows units with the correct design pressure rating for the projection depth and orientation of your particular wall. Skip that step and the window becomes a sail in a Cat 3 storm.
Window Contractor in Lauderdale Lakes
Choosing a window contractor in Lauderdale Lakes means choosing someone who understands the HVHZ code, the condo board approval process, and the condition of aging concrete and stucco openings. We hold a Florida state contractor’s license, carry liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and have been installing in South Florida since 2001. You get a written price for the full scope including permits, equipment, and cleanup – before a screw turns.
Permits, Engineering, and Condo Board Requirements
Any window opening in Lauderdale Lakes that changes size, shape, or the structural surround requires a Broward County permit. Replacement windows in existing openings still must meet current HVHZ impact standards. For condo buildings, boards typically require a uniform exterior appearance and may require an engineer’s letter for structural load on older balconies or shear walls. We handle the paperwork and the board submittal so the project does not stall waiting on signatures.
Installation to Rough Opening Reality
The concrete openings in Lauderdale Lakes buildings are not square. We have measured variations of up to 3/8 inch across a single opening. Our crews square the opening with a grinder where needed, flash the rough opening correctly on stucco-clad block, and set the window with stainless steel fasteners rated for coastal exposure. Then we seal the interior and exterior transitions so water cannot travel behind the stucco. That is the difference between a window that leaks in three years and one that holds until the next recertification.
Trusted Brands We Service in Lauderdale Lakes
We install and service impact-rated windows from CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, and each one of those lines is a real product we stock and order for Lauderdale Lakes jobs, not a brochure name. For condos where the board has already approved a specific manufacturer, we work within that spec and specify the correct DP rating for the exact opening. For single-family homes where the homeowner wants better sightlines and a thinner frame, ES Windows and CGI both offer products that meet HVHZ without looking like bunker glass. Having access to eight product lines through the Relay Home Co. family means the right window for your Dal Pino Drive condo or your NW 40th Street house is never a compromise.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Lauderdale Lakes Homes
- Salt-pitted aluminum frames that seize at the jamb. The original single-pane aluminum windows in 1970s and 1980s condo buildings along Oakland Park Boulevard corrode from years of salt-laden condensation. Sashes jam, weep holes clog, and the frame itself becomes a water path into the drywall.
- Non-impact single-pane glass that shatters under wind-borne debris. Homes and condos that predate the modern HVHZ code often still have original plate glass. When a storm throws a roof tile or a palm frond at that glass, it blows inward, and the water damage that follows costs more than the window replacement.
- Improperly flashed replacements on stucco-clad block walls. We see replacement windows that were set with no head flashing or with peel-and-stick membrane reversed on the sill. Water travels behind the stucco, rots the furring strips, and grows mold inside the wall cavity before anyone sees a stain.
- Concrete openings that are not square and get filled with shims. A window installed with half-inch shims at every corner is a window that will bind and leak. In Lauderdale Lakes, where the concrete block openings vary by up to 3/8 inch, field measurement and custom ordering is the fix, not more shims.

Here is what we are actually charging Lauderdale Lakes customers right now. A standard single-hung impact replacement runs $1,200 – $2,400. A horizontal roller window runs $1,100 – $2,100.

FAQs About Window Installation in Lauderdale Lakes
Yes, your openings must meet Broward County HVHZ requirements, which allow either impact-rated windows or rated shutters. For most Lauderdale Lakes condo owners, impact windows are the smarter long-term play because shutters cover the opening but do nothing for the failing seals, corroded frames, or air leakage in the original 1980s window. You also have to deploy shutters before a storm; impact glass is always on. Call (754) 354-1396 and we will quote both code paths so you can decide with real numbers.
In most cases yes, Florida insurers offer wind mitigation credits for HVHZ-approved impact windows, and the savings in Broward County often land between 15% and 45% off the windstorm portion of the premium depending on the carrier and the building’s existing mitigation features. The exact discount depends on your policy, not on the window brand. We give you the product approvals and the permit inspection sign-off your insurer will ask for.
Impact-rated window frames are typically extruded aluminum or vinyl with a marine-grade finish, and the hardware is stainless steel or coated to resist salt corrosion. The old 1983 aluminum was raw mill finish, which pits and oxidizes within a decade. We specify stainless steel rollers, thermally broken sills, and marine-grade sealant on every Lauderdale Lakes condo job, because we have pulled too many corroded jamb frames out of these buildings to spec anything less.
Almost never, and in a Lauderdale Lakes condo it is usually not code-compliant. The glass and frame are tested together as a system under Miami-Dade HVHZ standards, so you cannot drop an impact laminate into a 1980s aluminum frame and get an approval. The frame also carries the load path, and those old frames are failing anyway. Glass-only retrofits void warranties and will fail a permit inspection. Replace the entire unit and get the full DP rating.
The price difference comes from the design pressure rating, the glass package type, and the frame profile. A 72×80 sliding door on a second-floor interior hallway has a lower DP requirement than the same 72×80 door on a tenth-floor corner unit facing Oakland Park Boulevard. Glass tint, Low-E coatings, laminated thickness, and whether the frame is standard or thermally broken all move the number. We quote the exact product model and DP rating on every written estimate, so you see exactly what you are paying for.
