AfterFast, Reliable Windows & Doors Across Tamarac
Replacing windows and doors in Tamarac means working with homes that were almost all built in the same 20-year window, from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s. That’s why our crews see the same original single-pane jalousie windows, corroded aluminum frames, and hollow-core doors on nearly every block between McNab Road and Southgate Boulevard. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been replacing and upgrading windows and doors across Tamarac’s 33321 zip code long enough to know exactly what your house needs to meet today’s Florida Building Code wind-uplift standards. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come out, look at what you’ve got, and hand you a written line-item quote before any work starts.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Tamarac’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
Tom Barrett puts his name, address, and license number on every contract we write in Tamarac. Look it up before you sign anything with any contractor. Homeowners here have learned the hard way that national outfits quote one price on the phone and show up with another. We don’t work that way. Every scope change, every allowance, every price adjustment arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves.
We know Tamarac’s neighborhoods because we drive them every week. The villa communities off Pine Island Road, the single-family homes along Nob Hill Road, the CBS construction that dominates the original planned developments. When you call us about impact windows for a 1972-era attached villa, we already know you’re likely dealing with HOA architectural review on top of Broward County permitting. That’s not a surprise to us, it’s a Tuesday. Our crews are background-checked and uniformed, and a live person answers the phone 24/7, not a voicemail box or an out-of-state call center.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Tamarac
Here’s what we handle most often for Tamarac homeowners. Every one of these starts with a free estimate and ends with a written 90-Day Done Right Promise.
Window Replacement
Most Tamarac homes still have their original aluminum or single-pane jalousie windows, which predate Broward County’s post-Andrew wind code overhaul in 1992. That means no hurricane straps, no impact-rated glass, and frames that have spent 50 years in salt-laced humidity. We remove the old units, inspect the rough openings for moisture damage, and install code-compliant replacements. A typical full-home window replacement in Tamarac runs $4,500 to $15,000 depending on count and frame material.
Impact Windows & Doors
Tamarac sits squarely in the Miami-Dade and Broward HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone), so impact-rated openings aren’t optional extras, they’re what the building code demands for any new or replaced opening. We install PGT and CGI impact windows and doors that are tested to withstand the wind-borne debris these flatlands catch when a storm pushes in from the Atlantic. Expect $8,000 to $25,000 for a full impact window package on a typical Tamarac single-story concrete block home.
Door Installation
From front entry doors in the Woodmont neighborhood to sliding patio doors in the communities off Commercial Boulevard, we replace and install doors that seal tight against the 100% humidity that eats untreated steel frames from the inside out. We stock solid-core and impact-rated options, and we always flash the rough opening properly so the rainy season doesn’t find a way in behind the jamb.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Tamarac’s original villas and single-family homes often have the same builder-grade sliding glass doors they left the store with in the 1970s. The tracks wear out, the rollers seize, and the aluminum frames corrode where the sprinklers hit them. We replace them with impact-rated sliders that actually open when you want them to, and we check the threshold and weep system so water doesn’t pool at the track during June-to-October downpours.

Trusted Brands We Service in Tamarac
We install windows and doors from manufacturers you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. PGT impact windows are common on our Tamarac jobs because they’re manufactured down the road in North Venice and built specifically for South Florida’s wind loads. Simonton and Ply Gem give homeowners solid mid-range options when the budget is tight but the code requirements aren’t. We can get parts and service for these brands quickly, which matters when a gasket fails or a sash needs warranty work. If you’re replacing an original jalousie window in a 1975 villa, we’ll show you options that make sense for the house, not just the catalog.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Tamarac Homes
Fifty years of Florida weather expresses itself the same way across Tamarac’s housing stock. These are the issues we walk into most often, and we’re never surprised by any of them.
- Corroded jalousie and aluminum frames. Salt-laden air pushed inland from the Atlantic and year-round humidity eat unprotected aluminum. Many original frames in Tamarac are pitted to the point where they no longer hold a seal, even if the glass itself is intact.
- No hurricane straps or clips on original openings. Homes built from 1965 to 1982 predate Broward County’s 1992 wind code. Existing windows and doors usually have no uplift hardware tying the opening to the structure, which fails inspection for any new installation until we retrofit the opening.
- Leaking sliding patio doors. The canal-adjacent flat lots and high water table mean standing water after heavy rain. Original sliders with worn tracks and failed thresholds let that water into the living space, and by the time someone calls us, the subfloor is usually already stained.
- Single-pane glass and no thermal break. Tamarac’s hottest months run the AC nonstop, and original single-pane windows pass that heat straight inside. Replacing them with insulated impact glass drops the cooling load immediately, and it’s the single biggest energy improvement most of these houses will ever see.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Tamarac, FL
Here are real ranges for Tamarac, not national averages. Full-home window replacement typically runs $4,500 to $15,000. Impact window installation for a whole house lands between $8,000 and $25,000, with the range driven by the number of openings, frame material, and the brand you pick. A single entry door replacement is usually a few hundred in labor plus the slab cost, and impact sliders run higher than standard sliders because the glass package is the expensive part. On a 1970s CBS home with original openings, expect to pay for opening retrofit work on top of the window cost, since the old openings won’t have the anchor hardware current code requires. We give written line-item quotes so you see exactly where your money goes before you sign. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule your free estimate, and ask about the $40 Off Any Repair Over $200 offer if you’re fixing rather than replacing.

FAQs - Windows & Doors in Tamarac
Most Tamarac homes fall in the $4,500 to $15,000 range for full-home window replacement, and $8,000 to $25,000 for a full impact window package. Your count of openings, frame choice, and whether the rough openings need retrofit work for modern wind code will move you inside that range. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a written line-item quote for your exact house, free.
Yes. On every eligible job, we pull Broward County permits and the inspections get signed before we call the job done. We like the permit inspector. He works for you, not for me, and his signature is the only proof that the work meets the wind code your insurance company will ask about.
We answer the phone 24/7 and schedule crew visits to Tamarac every week. For a broken slider, a failed jalousie, or a door that won’t secure, we can usually get someone out within a couple of days. If the opening is breached and your home is exposed, tell us when you call and we’ll prioritize it. There’s no trip charge inside the county.
Yes. Every window and door job we complete in Tamarac carries the written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, one call brings Tom back. It’s printed on the contract, not tucked into fine print.
In most of Tamarac’s planned unit developments, yes. The villa communities off Pine Island Road and Commercial Boulevard typically require HOA architectural review before you change exterior windows or doors. We budget for that HOA permit layering on top of county permitting and help you prepare the submittal documents. Call (877) 610-1318 for guidance on your specific community.
