We’ve spent 29 years working Lee County homes, and San Carlos Park keeps us busier than most. The housing stock here is particular: single-story CBS block homes from the 1970s through 1990s, many still carrying original jalousie or aluminum-frame windows that predate Florida’s 2002 Building Code. Nobody has to explain to us why those matter. We see them every week along Three Oaks Parkway and up and down the side streets off Alico Road.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is San Carlos Park’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
We’re not a national outfit sending strangers in vans. Barrett & Sons Construction is owner-operated, founded in 1998 by Tom Barrett, and Tom’s sons run the crews that show up in San Carlos Park. When you call, a live person answers, not a voicemail box. When you have a question about your window order, you talk to someone who will be standing in your driveway the next day.
Our San Carlos Park customers keep coming back because of the paperwork as much as the workmanship. Every job gets a written change order before any scope change touches a nail. Permits get pulled through the Lee County Building Department, inspections get signed, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise sits written on every contract. If something’s not right, one call brings Tom back. That’s the whole guarantee, spelled out on paper.
Local knowledge matters in this ZIP code. San Carlos Park is unincorporated, which means every permit flows through Lee County, not a municipal office. Post-Ian, that department ran on multi-month inspection backlogs. We know how to file early and pad timelines so your window job doesn’t stall for eight weeks waiting on a county inspector. A contractor working out of Fort Myers proper might not think about that until your project is already behind schedule.
Our Windows & Doors team has also handled enough post-storm remediation here to know what insurance adjusters look for, what the county will flag, and what’s actually fine. That saves our San Carlos Park customers money on work they don’t need and prevents surprise code corrections after the fact.
Our Windows & Doors Services in San Carlos Park
Window Installation
Most San Carlos Park homes built before 2002 need full frame replacement, not pocket inserts. The original aluminum frames flex in high wind and the single-pane glass does nothing for the cooling bill from June through October. We install Simonton and PGT products sized to your existing openings, and every install gets flashed and sealed to current Lee County water-intrusion standards. On CBS block walls, that means properly bedded anchors and sealant details most crews skip.
Door Installation
Entry doors on San Carlos Park CBS homes take a beating from afternoon sun and tropical moisture. We replace front doors, side doors, and garage-entry doors with properly reinforced frames and thresholds. If your existing door slab is fine but the frame has rotted or the hinges have sagged, we’ll tell you that instead of selling you a full replacement. Honest scope in writing is kind of our thing.
Window Replacement
The jalousie windows common in this area’s original construction are actually charming until the first storm warning, then they’re a liability. We replace them with modern single-hung or horizontal-slider units that meet current wind-mitigation requirements. A typical 1,400-square-foot San Carlos Park home with 8 to 12 openings falls in the $4,500-$15,000 window replacement range, depending on glass package and frame material.
Impact Windows & Doors
After Hurricane Ian, impact-rated openings stopped being optional in most San Carlos Park rebuilds. Lee County’s post-Ian permit reviews hold every envelope project to 150+ mph wind-load standards, and impact windows are the clearest path to passing. We install PGT and CGI impact products with the missile-rated laminated glass and reinforced frames that satisfy county inspectors and actually protect your home. Impact window installation in San Carlos Park typically lands between $8,000 and $25,000, and it’s the single best investment you can make in a 1970s CBS home here.
We also handle sliding and patio doors, custom window configurations, glass railing systems, and hurricane shutters. If your patio slider binds after the slab shifted, or you want a full-house opening upgrade before next season, we’ll scope it in writing.

Trusted Brands We Service in San Carlos Park
We carry PGT, Simonton, and Ply Gem products across most San Carlos Park window and door projects. These are brands you can look up yourself, with published test data and local distribution, not mystery products off the back of a van. Because San Carlos Park sits in one of the strictest wind-borne debris regions in the country, we only source products that actually meet Miami-Dade or Florida Building Code standards for this area. That matters when the county inspector checks your installation certificate.
We also keep common hardware, sealants, and replacement sashes moving through our South Florida supply chain quickly, which keeps turnaround tight for San Carlos Park customers even during peak spring and fall remodeling season.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in San Carlos Park Homes
- Original aluminum-frame windows that fail wind-mitigation review. The 1960s and 1970s windows on many San Carlos Park CBS homes were never designed for a Category 4 or 5 storm. Post-Ian, insurance carriers and the county both flag them, and replacement becomes a requirement rather than an upgrade.
- Water intrusion around poorly flashed openings. Southwest Florida’s summer rain patterns are relentless, and the flat, low-lying lots across San Carlos Park mean water sits against the slab and the lower wall line longer than it does on higher ground. Window and door installations here need meticulous flashing, or the first wet season finds the drywall swelling.
- Binding patio sliders on settled slabs. San Carlos Park’s high water table and compacting fill cause concrete slabs to shift over time. Sliding doors that once glided now grind, and the fix often involves re-headering and re-flashing the opening, not just lubricating the track.
- Hurricane shutter and impact door retrofits on older CBS walls. Retrofit work on block construction requires precise anchors and epoxy-set fasteners matched to the wall’s existing concrete. We see plenty of retrofit attempts where someone used the wrong fastener and the whole assembly pulls loose under negative wind pressure. That’s exactly the kind of thing that fails an inspection.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in San Carlos Park, FL
Here’s what we tell San Carlos Park homeowners when they ask about cost. Window replacement on a typical San Carlos Park home runs $4,500-$15,000. Impact window installation starts near $8,000 and goes to about $25,000 for a whole-house job with high-end PGT or CGI product. Door installation usually lands between $1,200 and $5,500 per opening, depending on size, material, and whether you need a frame rebuild. Sliding glass door replacement often falls in the $2,500-$7,000 range when you factor in the opening repair work these older homes frequently need.
What moves the number is opening count, glass package, frame material, and how much of the surrounding block or framing has to be rebuilt. We give you a written line-item quote before work starts, and every price change after that comes as a written change order. You’ll never see a surprise invoice. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come out, measure, and put it all on paper. Estimates are free, and there’s no trip charge inside Lee County.
