Why Kendall Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
We answer the phone. That sounds small until you’ve spent three days chasing a callback from a national chain and listening to voicemail loops. Winslow Windows & Doors is owned by Ed Winslow, a local operator with a published address and license number, not a franchise with a ticket system. When you call, you get a person, and that person knows Kendall’s housing stock: the CBS construction, the pre-Andrew aluminum frames, the HOA communities off Killian and Sunset, and the specific product-approval questions that come up in every single permit application here.
Homeowners around The Hammocks, Kendall West, and Calusa have had us install impact windows and doors, replace sliding glass panels, and retrofit openings that inspectors flagged. We show up in uniform, background-checked, and we quote a firm number before work starts. There’s no trip charge inside our home county, and seniors and veterans get a permanent 10% discount. Ed’s name is on the door, which means he has a stake in the work that a sales-rep model can’t replicate.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Kendall
Impact Windows
Impact-rated windows are the flagship for this area. Kendall sits completely inside the HVHZ, so every replacement window must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, not just a Florida product approval. We install laminated impact glass from authorized brands like PGT and CGI, sized to the design pressure of each individual opening, and we confirm every product in the Miami-Dade database before ordering.

Window Installation
Installation is where permits get passed or fail. In Kendall, that means full-frame replacements into CBS block walls, proper anchoring per HVHZ requirements, and flashing details that hold up to wind-driven rain. Our crews install, not subcontract, and we schedule only after the product approval is confirmed.

Window Replacement
If your home was built before 1992, you likely have single-pane aluminum frames that don’t meet today’s code. Kendall’s original jalousie and sliding windows have oxidized in the humidity and leak air and water. We replace the entire frame, not just inserts, because the structure has to be anchored for wind load, not just looked at.

Door Installation
Kendall Door Installation means entry doors need the same impact rating as windows. We install fiberglass and steel entry doors with Miami-Dade approved assemblies, and we handle the threshold, frame, and hardware as one integrated system so the door doesn’t fail at the seam.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Kendall’s CBS homes are full of Kendall Sliding Glass & Patio Doors, and they’re the largest single opening on most houses. Impact sliding doors carry higher design pressures than windows because the glass area is bigger, so the frame and laminate specification matter even more here.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Between the year-round UV and the afternoon humidity, Kendall homes pay for glass choices all summer. Energy-Efficient Windows in Kendall use Low-E coatings and gas-filled insulated units that can reduce cooling load meaningfully, and when paired with impact laminate, you get the storm protection and the energy performance in the same unit.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the widest opening in the house. If it buckles in a storm, pressure shifts and windows pop from the inside. We install Impact Garage Doors in Kendall that carry Miami-Dade approval so the whole envelope stays intact.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Some Kendall homes have arched, radius, or geometric windows that big-box measurement services won’t touch. We order custom units from authorized fabricators and spec every shape to HVHZ requirements, even the odd ones.
Roof Repair
Windows and doors aren’t the only part of the envelope. We inspect and repair roofing on the same calls where we’re already quoting openings, because water gets in more than one way. Shingle, tile, and metal repairs come with the same done-right standard.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Full roof replacement in Kendall means code-compliant dry-in, Miami-Dade approved materials, and a roof that ties into the same wind-mitigation profile your windows do. We handle re-roofs on homes from West Kendall to Country Walk.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
We work in all three materials common to Kendall’s housing stock. Tile and metal both require different underlayment and attachment than shingle, and we don’t skip the details that hold up in a HVHZ inspection.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Kendall
We work across Kendall daily, from the townhome communities near Dadeland to the single-family blocks further west. Typical response time in Kendall is same-day for phone quotes and next-day for site visits. We regularly serve:
- The Hammocks
- Kendall West / West Kendall
- Country Walk
- Calusa / Killian
- Dadeland
Why Kendall’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Kendall sits in the southwestern flatlands of Miami-Dade with no coastal barrier to slow a storm. That’s not a minor detail; it’s the reason every opening has to carry design pressures rated for the HVHZ. Category-4 and 5 wind loads are the baseline here. A window rated for Broward County may not carry a Miami-Dade NOA, and if it doesn’t, the inspector will fail it and you’ll pay for a reorder. We check the Miami-Dade product-approval database before we quote, because guessing is expensive.
The housing stock compounds the issue. Kendall grew in dense waves from the late 1960s through the mid-1990s, leaving block after block of CBS homes with original single-pane aluminum windows. Andrew tore through here in 1992, and many of the homes that survived did so because they were out of the worst band, not because the windows helped. Insurers now pull policies or surcharge premiums on homes with pre-Andrew aluminum frames. The upgrade isn’t aesthetic; it’s the difference between an insurable house and a liability.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Kendall
Impact window replacement in Kendall typically runs $900 to $2,800 per opening, depending on size, design pressure, and whether it’s a standard rectangle or a radius shape. Entry doors with impact assemblies land between $2,500 and $6,500. Sliding glass doors start around $4,000 and climb with width and opening type. We give line-item written quotes with no change orders, and we offer $40 off any repair over $200, plus a free second opinion on any written estimate you bring us. Call (863) 946-5039 for a firm number.
Florida Pays Kendall Homeowners Back
There’s a real stack of incentives for doing this work in Kendall. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, depending on your home’s current inspection score and the program’s remaining funding. Impact-resistant windows and doors are exempt from Florida sales tax. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying energy-efficient units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs about $75 to $150 here, many carriers credit the windstorm portion of the premium by roughly 25%. We don’t set those numbers, and your carrier makes the final call, but the programs are real and worth claiming. Call us and we’ll walk you through which ones apply to your house.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Kendall
Expect $900 to $2,800 per opening for a typical Kendall home, with sliding glass doors starting around $4,000. Exact pricing depends on your home’s design pressure requirements, opening size, and the glass package. Call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll give you line-item numbers, not a guess.
Yes. Kendall lies entirely inside the HVHZ, so every replacement window and door must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. A standard Florida product approval isn’t enough, and we verify the NOA before ordering every unit. Call us and we’ll check your existing openings against the product database for free.
Installation is typically as fast as a single day once your units arrive. Custom impact windows run about 4 to 6 weeks from order to fabrication, because each opening is built to a specific design pressure. We timeline it before we start and don’t pad the schedule.
After a wind-mitigation inspection, many carriers credit the windstorm portion of the premium by roughly 25%, and some non-renewals get reversed once the upgrade is documented. We can’t guarantee your carrier’s final number, but we can install a system that passes the inspection cleanly. Call (863) 946-5039 and we’ll talk through your specific house.
Yes. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and we don’t consider the job done until the final passes. Kendall’s inspectors know the HVHZ product rules as well as we do, which is why we never spec a unit that isn’t in the Miami-Dade database.
Shutters sit in a garage until someone hangs them, usually at 11 p.m. as the storm bands start. Impact windows are permanent; there’s nothing to deploy, nothing to store, and nothing to forget. They also cut outside noise levels by close to 40%, whereas shutters do nothing for your house the other 364 days of the year. If you’re weighing shutters against impact glass, call us and we’ll give you the straight comparison for your specific openings.

What Kendall Customers Say
"Excellent work and a fair price for what it is, though impact glass is never cheap and one bedroom window arrived with a scratched pane. Ed flagged it before I saw it and the replacement went in without me chasing anyone."
- Bartholomew Crenshaw"Ed measured every opening himself and walked me through the product approval paperwork before I signed anything. When the inspector came he found the notice of acceptance taped inside a window like it should be and passed us first visit."
- Rosalind Beaumont"Our insurance agent asked for the wind mitigation paperwork and Ed had the whole file ready the day the job closed, every opening photographed. The premium conversation went very differently this year."
- Odessa Fairbanks
