Windows and doors
Windows and doors, repaired or replaced to code
Broken glass, bent frames, sliders off their track and doors that won't close. We cover the opening first, then fix it for good.
In Miami-Dade, new windows and doors have to be impact-rated or protected by approved shutters. We tell you the rule for your address, show you the options and write the choice into the estimate.
Impact products are made to order, so we cover the opening in the meantime and give you the delivery date when you order.
What's included

Permits and rules
Replacing windows and doors takes a permit in Miami-Dade, and the product has to have a county approval. We pull the permit and its cost has its own line.
In an HOA or a historic district, the board may need to approve a style or color first. Tell us and we build it into the schedule.
