Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Marco Island’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
We’re not a franchise dispatching strangers to Marco Island. Tom Barrett founded Barrett & Sons in 1998, and the crew that shows up on your canal-front lot carries the same name that’s painted on the truck. Our Windows & Doors team has replaced hundreds of sliders, casements, and impact-glass packages across the island, and we answer our own phone around the clock. When a Marco Island homeowner calls about a rusted lintel or a fogged IGU, the person who picks up knows what a Mackle-era CBS rough-in looks like and why that matters for your permit.
We also publish Tom’s name, address, and license number, which means you can look us up before you sign anything. Every price change arrives as a written change order before a single screw moves, and every completed job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why we like him on site.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Marco Island
Window Installation
New window installation on Marco Island typically runs $4,500-$15,000 for a full-home package, depending on how many openings you have and whether you’re rebuilding jambs or keeping the original Mackle-era rough-in. If your CBS walls still have single-pane aluminum frames with rusted steel lintels, the salt air off the Gulf has likely been eating at the metal for decades. We spec stainless steel anchors and corrosion-rated flashing as a matter of course here, not as an upgrade line item.
Door Installation
Exterior doors take a beating on this island between the humidity, the salt spray, and the afternoon squalls that roll in from the Gulf. We install and replace entry doors, French doors, and sliders, and on canal lots we sequence every lift and delivery from the street side because the water side is often too tight for equipment. That’s not a lesson a contractor learns on their first Marco Island job. It’s a lesson you only learn by working here.
Window Replacement
Window replacement in Marco Island usually falls between $4,500 and $15,000, with the higher end covering homes where every opening needs a new impact-rated unit and custom trim. Many Mackle-era homes still have their original 1960s and 1970s windows, and those single-pane aluminum frames no longer meet Collier County’s post-Irma wind-load requirements. Swapping in standard non-impact glass on a canal-front lot can get you a failed inspection and a stop-work order, so we only quote what code actually allows.
Impact Windows & Doors
Impact window installation in Marco Island runs $8,000-$25,000 for a typical single-family CBS home. PGT and CGI units dominate this market for good reason: they carry the design pressure ratings Collier County requires after Hurricane Irma rewrote the local wind maps. We stock and install both brands, along with Simonton for lighter coastal applications, and we’ll pull the permit and walk the inspection with you. On raised-stem-wall rebuilds, the finished floor often sits nine feet or more above grade, which changes your header heights and your slider rough-in numbers versus an inland home.

Trusted Brands We Service in Marco Island
We install PGT, CGI, and Simonton windows and doors across Marco Island, and we service those same brands when a seal fails or a roller gives out. Because these are named, researchable materials and not mystery-brand boxes off a van, you can look up the engineering data before you commit, and we can pull matching parts locally rather than waiting on a manufacturing lead time. That cuts turnaround on warranty replacements, which matters when you’re looking at a fogged impact slider in October and hurricane season isn’t technically over until November 30.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Marco Island Homes
- Rusted steel lintels above original window openings. Decades of Gulf salt air have corroded the steel headers in many Mackle-era CBS walls, and if we don’t catch it before pulling the old frame, the new window goes into a compromised opening. We inspect every opening before ordering glass.
- Non-impact glass installed post-Irma at inland standards. It’s not just a code violation, it’s a hazard on this island. If a neighbor’s roofer or handyman swapped a window without a permit and you’re now selling or insuring the home, the inspection record will catch up with you.
- Sliding door rollers rusted solid from canal spray. Homes where the back patio slider faces the water get a constant salt mist that inland homes never see. We replace rollers, tracks, and hardware with stainless or marine-grade components so the door doesn’t seize in three years.
- HOA profile denials that stall the whole job. Some homeowner associations in newer master-planned pockets of the island enforce a strict window and door aesthetic. We help you file the architectural request with the right drawings the first time, which keeps the permit from colliding with a stop-work letter.

Those numbers reflect the realities of this island: post-Irma wind-load engineering, stainless fasteners for salt air, and canal-side staging that routes labor and materials through the street face. Your home’s size, the number of openings, whether you need custom rough-in heights for an elevated floor, and your HOA’s approved profiles all move the final number.

FAQs - Windows & Doors in Marco Island
Yes. Every impact window and sliding glass door replacement on a canal-front lot in Marco Island requires a Collier County building permit, and most projects also trigger a separate seawall and dock permit review because the canal-side property line sits only feet from your home’s footprint. If your finished floor has been raised to meet FEMA AE or VE flood-zone elevation, your new units also have to clear the elevated stem wall, which changes the rough-in geometry and often requires custom header work. We handle the permit, the drawings, and the inspection. Call (877) 610-1318 for a quote that includes all of it in writing.
Sometimes, but not always. The original openings in Mackle-era CBS homes from 1965 to 1985 were framed for single-pane aluminum units, and decades of salt air have often rusted the steel lintels above them. If the lintel is still sound and the opening is square, we can frequently install a modern impact unit into the same rough-in. If the steel is compromised or the wind-load calculation now requires a heavier header, we have to reframe before the window goes in, which adds cost but keeps the inspection from failing. We’ll tell you which path your openings qualify for before we order a single unit.
Not if the replacement is permitted, inspected, and installed by a licensed contractor who doesn’t alter the structural assembly beyond code. The problem arises when a homeowner swaps windows without a permit or lets an unlicensed crew modify a rough opening, because the builder can then point to an unpermitted alteration as the reason a warranty claim is denied. We pull permits on every eligible Marco Island job and keep every change order and inspection sign-off on file, so your builder warranty stays intact if something else in the wall system fails later. If you bought new construction and the builder-grade windows are already failing, call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what the warranty actually covers.
The cost difference is real, and it comes from three island-specific factors. First, the salt-air environment off the Gulf corrodes standard aluminum hardware and rollers, so we spec stainless or marine-grade components, which cost more than box-store parts. Second, canal-front homes often have the water side so tight to the property line that every door panel has to be staged and carried from the street face, which adds labor and sometimes a second set of hands. Third, if your finished floor sits nine feet or more above grade on a raised stem wall, the slider has to be custom-ordered to match the elevated threshold, and custom lead times and engineering add to the price. For a real number on your specific slider, call (877) 610-1318 for a free line-item estimate.
You’re stuck with glass you can’t legally install, which is why our process on Marco Island puts HOA architectural approval before material ordering, not after. If the committee denies your preferred window or door profile, we adjust the spec and resubmit before a purchase order is cut. If you’ve already ordered materials on your own and the HOA denies the style, your best move is to stop, don’t open the packaging, and check the manufacturer’s return or restocking terms. Then call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll help you resubmit with a profile the association will approve. You shouldn’t eat a five-figure material order because the paperwork went in the wrong order.
If you’re ready to price out windows or doors on Marco Island, call (877) 610-1318 and ask for Tom. We’ll come out, look at your openings, check the salt corrosion on your lintels, and hand you a written scope with every line item on it. No phone quote that changes when the truck arrives. No allowances that aren’t on paper. Just a real number from a real crew that’s already working your streets.
