AfterFast, Reliable Windows & Doors Across Miramar
Window replacement in Miramar typically runs $4,500 to $15,000 for a full home, and impact window installation lands between $8,000 and $25,000 depending on the opening count and glass package. Most jobs take two to five days once materials arrive. If you’re in the older blocks off Miramar Parkway or near the 33023 corridor, you’re likely dealing with openings that haven’t been touched since the original build, and that’s exactly the kind of work we do every week. Call Tom Barrett at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk the house with you, no pressure and no charge for the estimate.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is the Right Windows & Doors Crew for Miramar
We’ve been pulling permits and passing inspections in South Florida since 1998, and the work here in Miramar is some of the most code-intensive we see in Broward County. That’s not a complaint, it’s just the reality of working on pre-Andrew concrete block homes that were built to a standard that no longer exists. The crew that shows up at your door knows the difference between a 1962 CBS jalousie opening and a 2005 builder-grade window, because Tom and his sons have been opening walls in this part of the county for almost three decades.
Every job we do in Miramar follows the same rules we’ve had since day one: scope in writing, allowances in writing, change orders in writing, and a permit pulled on every eligible job. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and that’s why we like him. If a price ever changes mid-job, you’ll see it on paper before a single nail moves. That’s the Barrett way, and it’s why people in Miramar keep calling us back when another window finally gives out or a door starts binding after a afternoon storm.
Tom Barrett publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Ask anyone on your street about a contractor who actually answers his own phone, or look up the license number yourself before you sign anything. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, not an out-of-state call center. When you call about windows and doors in Miramar, you get someone who knows exactly which neighborhoods flood first, which blocks sit on the lowest part of the limestone shelf, and which 1950s ranch homes still have their original single-pane awning windows.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Miramar
Our Windows & Doors team handles everything from a single patio slider replacement to a whole-house impact retrofit. Here’s what we do most in Miramar:
Window Installation
New window installation in Miramar almost always means bringing the opening up to current Broward County HVHZ wind-load requirements. The older 33023 homes were built with single-pane jalousie or awning windows that would not survive a direct hurricane hit today, and many of those openings were never flashed properly by modern standards. We remove the old unit, inspect the rough opening for rot or termite damage, install the new window per manufacturer specs, and make sure the flashing and sealant will hold up to both a category storm and the daily South Florida humidity.
Door Installation
Front doors and side doors take a beating in Miramar’s climate, from the afternoon sun on west-facing entries to the salt-laced air drifting inland from the coast. We install impact-rated entry doors, fiberglass doors that will not warp in the heat, and solid cores that actually close flush. If your door frame has been swollen shut after a wet season or you’ve noticed daylight around the edges, we’ll tell you honestly whether it needs a replacement or just a re-hang and new seals.
Window Replacement
Most window replacement work in Miramar falls into two categories: the homeowner who just wants a modern, energy-efficient unit that opens and closes without a fight, and the homeowner who wants impact glass and is finally ready to invest. For the first group, a typical three-bedroom ranch in Miramar is going to run $4,500 to $15,000 depending on window count, sizes, and whether we’re also replacing the interior trim. The second group should read the next section carefully.
Impact Windows & Doors
Impact window installation in Miramar typically runs $8,000 to $25,000 for a full home, with larger multi-slide patio doors pushing toward the higher end. This is not the place to shop by price alone. Impact-rated openings are tested to withstand a 9-pound 2×4 fired at 34 mph without penetration, and they have to be installed exactly to the manufacturer’s engineering specs to keep their rating. We carry PGT, CGI, and Simonton impact lines, all of which have Miami-Dade and Broward product approval, and we install them so the inspection passes the first time. In the eastern part of Miramar, where many homes predate even Hurricane Andrew’s old code, this is often the single biggest structural improvement a homeowner can make.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miramar
We install PGT and CGI impact windows and doors, and we work with Simonton on the mid-range replacement and renovation side. We don’t carry mystery brands off the back of a van, and we’ll tell you honestly whether an entry-level Simonton makes more sense than a premium PGT for your particular block and exposure. Because we’re in Miramar week after week, we keep the common hardware, rollers, latches, and weatherstripping for these brands in our local service trucks, which means less waiting for parts and fewer return trips.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Miramar Homes
- Jalousie windows with no weather stripping left. These old glass-slat windows are original to many 1950s and 1960s ranch homes in the 33023 ZIP. The operating mechanisms eventually seize, and the slats never seal tight, which means your AC is cooling the back yard on a July afternoon.
- Doors that swell and stick through the wet season. Miramar sits on low-lying land where the water table can rise within a few feet of the surface, and the June-to-November humidity makes unsealed door edges and frames swell like sponges. A door that opens fine in February and hangs up in August usually needs a moisture barrier and re-sealing, not just a harder push.
- Leaky window flashing discovered only after a storm. The pre-Andrew CBS homes in eastern Miramar rarely had through-wall flashing installed, so water from a driving rain can run down the inside of the block wall and show up as damp drywall days later. We find this on roughly one in every four window replacements in the older neighborhoods.
- Sliding glass doors that have jumped the track or worn down the rollers. The original patio sliders in 1960s Miramar homes are heavy and tired. Once the rollers fail, the panel drags on the track and gouges the aluminum. We replace the rollers, re-align the panel, and add new weatherstripping when the frame is worth saving, or quote a full replacement with impact glass when it is not.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Miramar, FL
Window replacement in Miramar runs $4,500 to $15,000 for a typical single-family home. A full impact window package lands between $8,000 and $25,000 depending on how many openings, whether you’re doing the doors at the same time, and which brand you choose. A single impact-rated sliding glass door replacement typically runs $2,500 to $6,000 installed. Door-only jobs, like a new front entry, usually fall between $1,200 and $4,000 depending on whether it’s a standard fiberglass door or a custom impact-rated unit with side lites.
What moves the price in Miramar specifically is code work. Many of the pre-1994 CBS homes need additional fastening, truss-to-wall tie-downs, or header upgrades as part of a window or door replacement once the building department reviews the plans. We include that in the written estimate from the start, because an allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. You’ll get a line-item quote before any work begins, and if anything changes mid-project, you’ll get a written change order before it happens. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and remember we honor a permanent 10% Senior and Veteran discount on every job.

FAQs - Windows & Doors in Miramar
We can usually schedule a free estimate in Miramar within a few business days, and in some cases sooner if we’re already running a project in the neighborhood. There’s no trip charge inside Broward County, and the estimate is free whether or not you hire us. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll put you on the calendar.
We cover all of Miramar, including the older 33023 corridor east of University Drive. That older section is actually where we spend a good portion of our time, because the pre-Andrew CBS homes need more structural retrofitting and more careful window and door work than the newer construction out west. If your home still has original jalousie windows or a sagging patio slider, we know exactly what we’re getting into before we even open the wall.
Yes, we can board up broken or vulnerable openings before a storm and we install permanent impact windows and hurricane shutters that mean you never have to fumble with plywood and tapcons in the dark again. Impact-rated windows and doors from PGT or CGI stay in place year-round and do the job a shutter does without the yearly scramble. If you want to talk through the difference, call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through it.
Material prices are similar across Broward, but labor and code-required retrofits vary. Miramar’s older CBS housing stock often requires more fastening, header work, or tie-down upgrades during a window replacement than a newer Hollywood or West Hollywood build would, and those upgrades add real cost that a contractor quoting off a generic price sheet may not include. Our estimates include that code work from the start, so you’re comparing true numbers, not a lowball that balloons later.
Every job carries the Barrett & Sons 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if it’s not done right, call us and Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right. On top of that, the manufacturers we install, like PGT, CGI, and Simonton, carry their own written warranties on the product itself. We register every product warranty for you after the job is complete, so you don’t lose coverage because of a missed registration deadline.
