Trusted Window Installation for Miami Homeowners
Window installation in Miami isn’t a once-a-decade expense. It’s the single decision that determines how well your home holds up against hurricane season, how much your AC bill runs in August, and whether outside noise stays outside. Winslow Windows & Doors has handled window installations across Miami since 2011, and we’ve seen what these coastal conditions do to frames, flashing, and seals that weren’t built for it. Ed Winslow’s name is on the door and on every job we do. Call (863) 946-5039 and a live person answers, 24/7.
What Our Window Installation Service Includes
Single & Double Hung Windows
Single hung windows open from the bottom sash only, while double hung windows let you open both the top and bottom sashes for better airflow through your home. In Miami’s climate, double hung windows are especially useful because you can open the top sash to release hot air that rises, keeping rooms comfortable without running the AC as hard. Winslow Windows & Doors installs both styles with proper flashing, level sashes, and sealed frames that won’t rattle when the wind off Biscayne Bay picks up.

Horizontal Roller Windows
Horizontal roller windows slide side to side on tracks, making them a smart choice for wide openings and for rooms where an outward-swinging window would block a walkway or patio. We carry and install horizontal roller windows from PGT and CGI, two Florida manufacturers that build specifically for coastal wind loads. Our installation process includes checking track alignment so the window glides without binding, because a roller window that sticks six months after install is a call we don’t want you to have to make.

3-Panel Sliding (3-Lite Roller) Windows
3-Panel Sliding (3-Lite Roller) Windows give you a wide, unobstructed view with two outer fixed panels and one or two operable panels, depending on configuration. These are popular in Miami homes with pool views or back patios where homeowners want maximum glass and easy ventilation. Winslow Windows & Doors installs 3-lite roller windows with reinforced frames and precise track alignment, so all three panels move smoothly and seal tightly when closed.

Casement Windows
Casement Windows crank open outward on side hinges, offering the tightest seal against wind and rain of any operable window style. That seal is exactly why many Miami homeowners choose casement windows for the windward side of the house. We install casement windows with stainless steel hinges, multi-point locking systems, and weather-stripping that stays pliable in South Florida’s heat and humidity rather than drying out and cracking.

Awning & Hopper Windows
Awning & Hopper Windows hinge at the top and push outward from the bottom, while hopper windows hinge at the bottom and tilt inward from the top. Both are excellent for small spaces like bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basement-adjacent areas where you still want light and ventilation. Winslow Windows & Doors installs awning and hopper windows with proper drainage planes so that even during a Miami downpour, water runs off the window instead of pooling against the frame.

Picture & Fixed Windows
Picture and fixed windows don’t open, which means they can be built larger and offer completely uninterrupted views and maximum natural light. They’re often the focal point of a living room or a dining area facing a backyard or canal view. We install fixed windows with structural reinforcement appropriate for Miami-Dade County’s high-velocity hurricane zone requirements, because a non-operable window still has to hold up when the storm comes.
Beyond these core styles, Winslow Windows & Doors also installs Bay & Bow Windows that project outward to create a reading nook, and garden windows that give you a mini-greenhouse shelf for herbs and plants. Each installation gets the same treatment: square framing, sealed flashing, insulated gaps, and a final walkthrough with you before we call the job complete. That’s been our standard since 2011, and it’s the reason homeowners across Miami, Coral Gables, and Doral keep our number saved.

Brands We Service for Window Installation
We’re an authorized installer for PGT and CGI, two of the most trusted impact-window names in Florida. PGT is a Florida company through and through, and their WinGuard series has been tested and re-tested for Miami-Dade’s strict wind-load requirements. We’ve installed PGT windows in hundreds of homes across Miami, and we know exactly how to flash their frames so the factory warranty stays valid. CGI, out of Miami itself, builds some of the heaviest-duty impact windows you can put in a coastal home, and we regularly install their Sentinel and Estate lines for homeowners in Miami Beach and Cutler Bay who want serious storm protection without sacrificing curb appeal.
We also install ViewLux and CWS windows for homeowners who want premium architectural styling. ViewLux is known for clean lines and smooth operation, and CWS offers a broad range of impact-rated styles that work well in modern and Mediterranean-style Miami homes. Whether you have PGT, CGI, ViewLux, CWS, or any other make, we can help. Call (863) 946-5039 and tell us what’s in your home now, and we’ll tell you straight what your installation options are.
Signs You Need Window Installation Right Now
- Condensation or fog between the glass panes. That means the seal on the insulated glass unit has failed, and the argon or krypton gas between the panes is gone. The window’s energy efficiency is essentially zero once that happens, and in Miami’s humidity, you’ll start seeing moisture, then mold, then water damage inside the frame.
- Water stains or soft drywall around the window frame. Water intrusion isn’t just a cosmetic problem, it’s actively rotting the framing and inviting termites into the wall cavity. Miami’s afternoon thunderstorms will find any gap in flashing or caulking, and once the leak starts, it rarely gets better on its own.
- Windows that stick, jam, or won’t stay open. Frames warp over time in South Florida’s heat and moisture, especially on older aluminum single-pane windows. A window that won’t open is a fire escape and ventilation failure, and a window that won’t close is a security risk.
- You can feel drafts or heat radiating through the glass. Single-pane windows act like a magnifying glass for Miami sun, turning rooms into ovens and making your AC work double shifts. If you can stand near a closed window and feel the temperature change, the window is doing nothing to insulate your home.
- Rattling during heavy wind or storm season. Windows that shake when the wind gusts are telling you the frame isn’t anchored properly to the house. In a named storm, that wobble is where failures happen. Miami-Dade building code exists for a reason, and older windows often predate today’s wind-load standards.
Our Window Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free on-site measurement and estimate. Ed or one of our background-checked technicians comes out, measures every opening, checks the existing frame condition, and gives you a written, line-item estimate before any work begins. No vague ballparks, no “we’ll figure it out after we cut the drywall.” You know the number before you sign.
- 2
Product selection and ordering. We’ll walk you through your options based on the window style, the exposure of that wall, and your budget. Since we’re authorized dealers for PGT, CGI, ViewLux, and CWS, we can order directly from the manufacturers with exact lead times, not a guess from a big-box store kiosk.
- 3
Permit application and structural preparation. Miami window installations often require permits, and we handle that paperwork for you. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and prep the openings by removing old windows carefully, checking for hidden water damage, and repairing any compromised framing before the new window goes in.
- 4
Installation day. Our uniformed crew arrives, lays down floor protection, removes the old units, and installs your new windows with correct flashing, shims, insulation, and sealant. Every window is leveled, squared, and tested through a full open-close cycle. We don’t leave sawdust in your living room or caulk smeared across the mullions.
- 5
Final walkthrough and the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. We walk the job with you, show you what we installed, and answer every question. If anything isn’t done right, we come back and make it right, that’s the 36500-Day Done Right Promise, and it doesn’t expire.
How Much Does Window Installation Cost in Miami?
Window installation pricing in Miami depends on the window type, the frame material, the glass package, and whether the installation requires structural upgrades. Here’s what we typically see across Miami-Dade, based on the jobs we’ve completed since 2011:
| Window Type | Average Installed Price Range (per window) |
|---|---|
| Single or Double Hung | $450 - $1,100 |
| Horizontal Roller | $500 - $1,150 |
| 3-Panel Sliding | $1,300 - $2,900 |
| Casement | $600 - $1,400 |
| Awning | $450 - $1,000 |
| Picture or Fixed | $700 - $2,400 |
| Bay or Bow | $3,500 - $8,500 |
Several factors move these numbers. Impact-rated glass adds cost but is often required by Miami-Dade code, especially for homes east of US-1. Larger custom sizes, second-story access, and any rotted framing that needs repair all add to the bottom line. The biggest mistake we see homeowners make is shopping on price alone, then paying again two years later when the cheap installation leaks or the warranty company has vanished. Winslow Windows & Doors gives you an upfront, line-item estimate on the first visit. The number we quote is the number you pay, no change orders, no surprises. We also offer a free second opinion on any written estimate, a $40 discount on any repair over $200, and a 10% discount for seniors and veterans, all day, every day.

Frequently Asked Questions - Window Installation in Miami
Window installation is the process of removing an old or failed window and correctly setting a new one into the wall opening, including flashing, insulation, sealing, and exterior trim. In Miami, proper installation also means complying with Miami-Dade County’s high-velocity hurricane zone building codes. Winslow Windows & Doors has handled window installation across the Miami area since 2011, and we pull permits and pass inspections on every job that requires them.
Most standard window installations are completed in one to two days for a typical Miami home of 3 to 5 windows.

We’ll give you a firm timeline on your written estimate before work begins, so you know exactly when the crew arrives and when they finish.

Every installation is backed by the 36500-Day Done Right Promise, which means if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s a century of accountability, and it’s on top of the factory warranties from PGT, CGI, ViewLux, and CWS, which we help you register and which we stand behind as an authorized installer. If a factory warranty claim ever comes up, we’re the ones who handle the paperwork for you.
Clear a path to each window by moving furniture, plants, and decor at least three feet back from the opening, and take down any curtains or blinds you want to keep clean. Our crew will lay down floor protection and handle the rest, including removing the old windows and cleaning up all debris before we leave. If you have security sensors or window treatments wired in, let us know at your estimate appointment so we can plan for disconnection and reinstallation.
