AfterTrusted Window Replacement for Lauderhill Homeowners
Window replacement in Lauderhill typically runs $650-$1,450 per opening for standard inserts and $950-$2,100 for full-frame work, with most single-visit jobs completed in one day. Those numbers hold for the majority of vinyl and aluminum openings we quote across Lauderhill, though impact-rated glass, historic-profile restoration, and second-story access shift the range upward. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, a second-generation glazier’s shop serving Lauderhill and Broward County since 2008, led by Dale Kessler. Our standard is simple: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Call (850) 303-7739 and a live person answers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What Our Window Replacement Service Includes
Every replacement we quote in Lauderhill starts the same way: a technician measures the opening twice, inspects the rough frame for rot or settlement, and puts a written line-item quote in your hand before any work begins. We don’t swap glass and walk. We replace the unit, set it square, seal it, trim it, and register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. Below are the five types of window replacement we handle most often in Lauderhill and the surrounding neighborhoods.
Full Frame Replacement
A Full Frame Replacement means the entire existing window comes out, including the frame, sill, and exterior trim, down to the rough opening. You need this when the frame itself is rotted, out of square, or when you’re changing window sizes or styles. TruePane pulls the old unit, inspects the stud cavity for water damage, corrects any framing issues, flashes the opening properly, and sets the new window as a complete sealed system rather than a patch job.
Insert Window Replacement
Insert Window Replacement, sometimes called pocket replacement, fits a new window unit inside the existing frame when that frame is still sound. It’s the right call when the glass has failed or the sash binds, but the surrounding wood or aluminum is in good shape. We measure the existing frame’s interior dimensions precisely, order the insert to spec, then set it with shims and sealant so it operates clean and drains properly. This is a common choice in older Lauderhill homes where the original frames were milled well and don’t need to be torn out.
Storm Window Replacement
Storm windows are the outer layer on many older Lauderhill houses, protecting the primary window from wind-driven rain and flying debris. When a storm unit’s glass is cracked, its frame is bent, or its hardware no longer holds a seal, it stops doing that job. TruePane replaces storm windows with units sized to the existing opening and matched to the primary window’s profile. For homes in Lauderhill’s established neighborhoods, we can keep the original exterior look while upgrading the storm unit to modern, code-compliant glass.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
An Energy-Efficient Upgrade replaces older single-pane or failed double-pane units with low-E glass, argon fill, and thermally broken frames sized for South Florida’s heat and humidity. In Lauderhill, where cooling loads run most of the year, a properly specified low-E unit cuts solar heat gain without darkening the room. We quote side-by-side manufacturer lines on paper so you see exactly what each glass package costs and what its performance ratings are. Our goal is to give you a spec that works, not to upsell you into a glass package you don’t need.
Historic Window Restoration
Some Lauderhill homes have original wood windows that a full replacement would destroy in character and value. When the sash, muntins, and frames are restorable, we perform Historic Window Restoration and rebuild them rather than rip them out. TruePane repairs rotted wood with epoxy consolidation, replaces failed glazing, re-ropes sash weights or re-springs balances, and installs new weatherstripping so the window works like it did when the house was built. When the glass itself is the failure but the frame is worth saving, we can set new insulated glass into the original sash, which preserves the look while upgrading the performance.
Whether you need one window in a bedroom or every opening on a two-story house, the same crew shows up: background-checked, uniformed, working in your home the way they would work in their own mother’s. We’ll be there when we say, and the price on the quote is the price on the bill.

Brands We Service for Window Replacement
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and our technicians work on CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems units every month across Lauderhill. We stock OEM parts for CGI impact windows, including their heavy-frame replacement sashes and hardware sets, which matters when a storm-tested unit has to be replaced to original spec rather than swapped for a generic alternative. CWS units show up often in Lauderhill’s newer communities and in hurricane-impact retrofits; we know their frame profiles and glazing options well enough to quote exact-match replacements without guessing at dimensions.
ECO Window Systems is another line we carry and service, particularly for homeowners who want a strong thermal package at a mid-range price point. We quote ECO side by side with the premium lines so you can compare glass ratings and frame construction on paper. Whether you have CGI, CWS, ECO, ES Windows, or any other make, we can replace it properly. If the manufacturer’s name is still legible on the glass or frame, we’ll source the matching unit. If it’s long gone, we’ll measure the opening and quote a correct-size replacement that seals and drains as it should.
Signs You Need Window Replacement Right Now
- Condensation or fog between the glass panes. A failed seal lets moisture into the airspace between panes, which fogs the glass and kills the insulating value. Once the seal goes, the window will never perform again no matter how much you clean it. In Lauderhill’s humidity, the fog shows up fast and stays.
- The sash binds, sticks, or won’t stay open. Warped frames, failed balances, or swollen wood make a window hard to operate, and a window that won’t open is a safety issue in an emergency. Binding also usually means the frame is out of square, which is a structural problem, not a hardware problem. Replacing the unit is often cheaper than fighting it.
- You can feel a draft or see daylight around the edges. If air moves around a closed window, the weatherstripping or the frame seal has failed. That draft is your air conditioning leaking out and Lauderhill’s humid air leaking in. Caulking the outside won’t fix a unit that’s no longer sealed at the frame.
- Rotted wood, soft sills, or visible water stains below the window. Water has already entered the wall cavity when you see staining or rot around the opening. The leak typically starts at the window’s flashing or frame, and by the time it shows inside, the damage is further along than it looks. Full frame replacement is usually the only correct fix.
- Outside noise that’s noticeably louder than it used to be. Older single-pane windows transmit most of the traffic and neighborhood sound around them. When the noise level inside the house climbs, the glazing has often lost whatever insulating value it had. Laminated or double-pane replacement glass drops the decibel level noticeably in Lauderhill’s busier corridors.
Our Window Replacement Process - Step by Step
- 1
Call and talk to a person. You call (850) 303-7739 and a live person answers, day or night. No voicemail tree, no callback form, no regional call center. We ask what you’re seeing, what the windows are doing, and when it’s convenient for us to come out. Most Lauderhill appointments fit within the same week.
- 2
We measure and quote on site. A technician arrives on time, in uniform, and measures every opening twice with a laser and a tape to confirm. We inspect the existing frames, check for rot or settlement, and put a written quote in your hand before we leave. The quote shows manufacturer lines side by side, with prices, so you can see what you’re buying.
- 3
You pick the window and we order it. We don’t push one brand. We show you what each line costs and what it does, and you choose. We place the order with the manufacturer, confirm lead time, and schedule the install date before we leave if you’re ready. Most standard replacements arrive in one to three weeks.
- 4
Installation day. The crew arrives, protects the floors and furniture, removes the old unit, and sets the new one square, flashed, sealed, and trimmed. We correct any framing issues we find behind the old window, then clean up fully. Most jobs are done in a single visit, the way it should be.
- 5
Warranty registration and final walk-through. Before the truck leaves your driveway, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing and hand you the paperwork with the durations stated. Then we walk the job with you, window by window. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
How Much Does Window Replacement Cost in Lauderhill?
A typical insert window replacement in Lauderhill runs $650-$1,450 per opening, depending on glass package, frame material, and whether the unit is standard size or custom. Full frame replacement runs higher, typically $950-$2,100 per opening, because it includes removing the old frame, correcting any hidden damage, flashing, and exterior trim. Impact-rated windows, which many Lauderhill homeowners choose for hurricane protection, add $300-$700 per opening over standard glass. Historic restoration work is quoted per window after we see the condition of the sash and frame.
What moves the price: the window’s size and shape, whether it’s a standard or custom unit, the glass package you choose, second-story access, and whether the existing frame is being kept or torn out. What doesn’t move the price at TruePane: the number on the quote. We write line-item pricing on paper and we stand behind it. No surprise line items on the bill, no change orders unless you ask for something different. A written, line-item quote is your protection against overpaying, and it’s free. Call (850) 303-7739 to schedule yours.

Every TruePane job is covered by our Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway, with durations stated on the paperwork.

If it’s not done right, we make it right.
Clear a path to each window being replaced, move furniture at least three feet back from the openings, and take down any window treatments you want to keep. We’ll lay down floor protection and cover nearby furniture, but the fewer obstacles, the faster and cleaner the job goes. If there’s an alarm sensor on any window, note it before we arrive. We handle the rest, including hauling away the old units and cleaning up after ourselves.
