AfterWindows & Doors Services in Hollywood, FL
Hollywood’s windows and doors do more than frame the view. They hold the line against hurricane-force winds, Atlantic salt spray, and the particular demands of a city where 1960s condo towers sit a block from the surf and mid-century ranch homes still carry original aluminum frames. If you’re dealing with fogged glass, corroded sliding door tracks, or windows that rattle when a storm rolls up the coast, we can help. Call (727) 483-7883 and you’ll reach a live person, any hour, any day.
Scheduling and dispatch for Hollywood jobs are coordinated from our Miami (South FL) office, with crews serving Hollywood locally. Our home is built on one promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Ed Winslow’s name has been on the business since 2011, and that means something when the work involves protecting your family from the next named storm.

Key Takeaways
- HVHZ rules apply: Hollywood requires Miami-Dade NOA approval on replacement windows and doors, stricter than most of Florida.
- Salt corrosion is real: Beach and Intracoastal properties see frame and hardware failure years before inland homes.
- Milestone inspections are driving replacements: Older condo buildings on the beach side are now being forced into large-scale window and sliding door upgrades.
- Pricing runs $700-$2,800 per opening depending on product, size, and structural prep.
- Florida incentive money is available: Grants, tax exemptions, and credits can offset a meaningful slice of the job.
Why Hollywood Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow founded this company so homeowners would never have to chase an installer who vanished after the check cleared. That’s why we publish our address and license number. It’s why every technician who shows up at your Hollywood door is background-checked and in uniform, so you know exactly who’s walking up the driveway. And it’s why we answer our phones with a live person 24/7: no voicemail loops, no call centers, no next-business-day callback.
Homeowners in Emerald Hills and Hollywood Lakes have hired us for the same reason condo boards along the Intracoastal do. We handle the permitting path that Hollywood demands, we install the right product for the opening, and we stand behind it with the Done Right Promise. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No fine print. No ticket numbers. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Hollywood
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship of our Hollywood work. We install laminated impact glass that carries Miami-Dade NOA approval per configuration, with design pressures matched to each opening, never a rating above +/-100. The glass is built to take a direct hit from wind-driven debris and stay intact, which means your home stays sealed during a storm. Learn more about our Impact Windows in Hollywood.
Window Installation
Proper installation is where product performance is won or lost. Our crews handle full-frame replacements, pocket installs in concrete block, and the structural prep that Hollywood’s older openings often need. Whether it’s a 1950s jalousie coming out of a CBS ranch or a sealed-up condo unit on the Intracoastal, the opening gets squared, flashed, and sealed before the new window goes in. Learn more about our Window Installation in Hollywood.
Window Replacement
When windows have hit the end of their useful life, replacement is a structural decision, not a cosmetic one. We replace single-pane aluminum with HVHZ-compliant units that carry the right NOA for each opening. The result is quieter rooms, lower cooling bills, and a house that actually meets Hollywood’s wind requirements. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Hollywood.
Door Installation
Entry doors, French doors, and hinged impact doors all fall in this line of work. We stock and install doors from Therma-Tru and other authorized brands, built to handle the same wind and salt conditions as the windows beside them. A properly installed impact-rated entry door is the last line of defense at the front of your home.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
This is the category keeping Hollywood condo boards up at night. Aging sliding glass doors on beach and Intracoastal buildings face salt corrosion, failed rollers, and the looming mandate of milestone inspections. We replace them with new impact-rated sliders that meet Miami-Dade NOA standards and glide instead of grinding.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Windows account for a large share of a home’s thermal load, and Hollywood’s sun is relentless. Our energy-efficient lines use low-E coatings and insulated frames that can cut cooling costs by 20 to 30 percent in a typical Hollywood home. The comfort difference is noticeable within days of installation.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage openings are the largest single penetration in most Florida homes and a common failure point in high wind. We install impact-rated garage doors with reinforced tracks and bracing designed to handle Broward County’s HVHZ wind pressures. This is a critical part of a full protection envelope.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Hollywood has no shortage of distinctive architecture, and not every opening is a standard rectangle. Radius tops, hexagons, trapezoids, and oversized picture windows all fall under our custom and geometric window work. We work with manufacturers like ES Windows and ECO Window Systems to fabricate the right shape, then install it to the same HVHZ standard as every other opening.
Roof Repair
A roof is just as critical to your protection envelope as the glass below it. We repair leaks, replace damaged sections, and assess storm damage on all roof types, from shingle to tile to metal. If your roof and windows both took a beating in the last storm, one call handles both.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Full roof replacement in Hollywood means meeting current wind-load requirements and tying the roof to the rest of the structure properly. We install new roof systems that work in concert with your impact windows and doors to keep the whole house sealed, secured, and dry.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Each roof material has different advantages in Hollywood’s climate. Shingle is the budget-conscious workhorse, tile delivers longevity and looks right on older Hollywood homes, and metal offers maximum wind and corrosion resistance near the coast. We install all three and will help you weigh the trade-offs.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Hollywood
Our crews work across Hollywood, from the beach side to the western edges of the city. You’ll see our trucks in Emerald Hills, Hollywood Lakes, the Hollywood Beach barrier island, downtown, and the neighborhoods around Sheridan Street and Stirling Road.
- Emerald Hills: 1960s and 1970s ranch homes, many with original aluminum windows due for replacement.
- Hollywood Lakes: Historic homes and waterfront properties with corrosion concerns and strict aesthetic guidelines.
- Hollywood Beach: Condo towers and direct-oceanfront buildings facing salt spray and milestone inspection pressure.
- Downtown Hollywood: A mix of older commercial-to-residential conversions and newer builds needing full protection packages.
- Sheridan Street corridor: Suburban neighborhoods with larger floor plans and multiple sliding door openings.
Why Hollywood’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Hollywood sits inside Broward County’s HVHZ classification, the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which is a stricter standard than most of Florida uses. For homeowners, that translates into a hard requirement: every replacement window or door must carry Miami-Dade NOA approval, not just the general Florida Product Approval accepted elsewhere. Contractors who don’t know this get permits rejected and leave homeowners holding the delay.
Now layer on salt. Hollywood Beach and the Intracoastal-facing units eat aluminum frames, hardware, and glazing seals measurably faster than homes just a few miles west near I-95. We routinely find 1960s and 1970s sliding glass doors in Hollywood Beach condo buildings whose sill tracks have corroded completely shut from decades of salt intrusion. Those frames can’t be pulled in the standard way. They require angle-grinding out the entire rough opening, followed by concrete patching, before any HVHZ-approved unit can be set. What looks like a simple swap turns into a half-day structural prep job. That’s the reality of working the Hollywood coast, and it’s why experience in this specific market matters.
Inland, founder Joseph Young’s 1925 planned-city grid filled out in the 1950s through the 1970s with CBS construction, concrete block and stucco. Many of those ranch homes still have original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows with zero hurricane resistance and zero thermal efficiency. They’re not just outdated. In a storm, they’re the first place a house fails.
Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters: Which Makes Sense in Hollywood?
Shutters do one thing: they protect glass during a storm. You still have to haul them out, hang them, and pray the anchors hold. Impact windows protect all the time, passively, with no panels to store and no panic when a storm track shifts overnight. For Hollywood homeowners with full-time jobs and emergency evacuation routes to think about, permanent protection built into the glass is the practical choice. Big-box retail installers will sell you the panel. A licensed impact specialist designs and installs a whole protection envelope, and that’s the difference in a city where the building department checks every opening’s NOA approval.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Every job gets a written, line-item estimate. No vague promises, no change orders after the fact. Upfront pricing, no surprises on the invoice. As a guide for Hollywood homeowners:
- Impact window replacement: $700-$1,800 per opening for standard sizes in CBS construction, more for oversized or second-story work.

Florida Pays Hollywood Homeowners Back
Hollywood homeowners have real money on the table if they act. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Impact-resistant windows and doors carry a Florida sales-tax exemption. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which typically costs between $75 and $150, Florida homeowners commonly see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Programs change and insurance carriers set their own numbers, so treat these as general ranges, not promises. We’ll point you to the resources and let the numbers land where they land.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Yes. Hollywood sits within Broward County’s HVHZ, which means every replacement window and exterior door must carry Miami-Dade NOA (Notice of Acceptance) approval, a stricter standard than the general Florida Product Approval used in much of the state. Pull a permit without the right approval and the job stops. Call (727) 483-7883 if you want a quote from a company that gets this right the first time.
For a standard opening in a typical CBS home, Hollywood homeowners can expect to pay $700 to $1,800 per window installed, though oversized units, second-story work, and structural prep will push the number higher. Call (727) 483-7883 for a written line-item quote, our estimates are free and you’ll see exactly where every dollar goes.
Yes, and the pressure is building. Florida’s post-Surfside milestone inspection law requires structural inspections at 25 or 30 years for most condo buildings, and older oceanfront towers on the Hollywood Beach barrier island and along A1A are hitting those thresholds now. Sliding glass doors and windows are a frequent target. Call (727) 483-7883 for an assessment, we’ve already helped boards across Hollywood plan these replacement projects.
Yes, and the effect is measurable. Salt spray from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal corrodes aluminum frames, hardware, roller assemblies, and glazing seals faster on beach-facing and water-adjacent properties than on homes a few miles west. We regularly grind open sill tracks on Hollywood Beach condos that have seized completely. That’s why product choice and installation quality matter so much on the east side of the city. Schedule a free estimate at (727) 483-7883.
Yes. Every Hollywood job runs through the permitting process, and our installations are built to pass inspection. HVHZ product review, wind-load calculations, and design pressure documentation are part of the job, not an add-on. Call (727) 483-7883 to get your project started with the paperwork done properly.

What Hollywood Customers Say
"A tile roof repair and new windows from the same company meant one crew, one permit runner, and nobody blaming the other trade. Ed checked the roof work himself before the tarp came off."
- Henrietta Pemberton"Someone tried the back slider while we were away. The glass crazed and held, the alarm never had to earn its keep, and the police report reads better than it might have. Ed came out the next morning to check the frame himself."
- Cornelius Adeyemi"The old aluminium sliders howled every afternoon storm and swelter came straight through the glass. The new impact sliders shut with a sound like a bank vault and the back rooms finally hold their temperature."
- Percival Whitcombe
