ES Windows Windows & Doors in Hollywood, FL | Winslow Windows & Doors
We provide independent ES Windows service across Hollywood, from the Intracoastal condo corridor to the CBS ranch neighborhoods west of US-1. What makes our ES Windows work here different is simple: we’ve spent over a decade pulling corroded frames, seized sashes, and failed rollers out of buildings that sit in Atlantic salt spray, and we know which repairs hold up under Broward County’s HVHZ code and which ones don’t. Call (727) 483-7883 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Winslow Windows & Doors has been doing ES Windows sales & service long enough to recognize a specific problem by the sound a sash makes when it finally breaks loose. Ed Winslow’s name is on every invoice, and his three decades of South Florida window work go into every judgment call we make on a Hollywood job site.
Why Hollywood Residents Choose Us for ES Windows Service
We’re not a manufacturer line. We’re an independent ES Windows service contractor, which means we tell you when a roller replacement makes sense and when the frame itself has given out and needs to come out entirely. That distinction matters more in Hollywood than almost anywhere else, because the salt air corrodes ES aluminum in ways a brochure never covers. Ed Winslow learned the trade hands-on at Miami Dade College’s Wolfson campus, and the building science he picked up there is exactly what guides our repairs: proper flashing, square frames, seal lines that actually keep out wind-driven rain.
When you call us, a live person answers. You won’t get a call center or a voicemail loop. We’ve serviced ES Windows in Hollywood’s mid-rise condos, beachfront high-rises, and 1950s ranch homes long enough to know which ES series survive the salt and which ones start failing right around year fifteen. That’s real, local experience with this exact brand, in this exact environment.
Common ES Windows Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Hollywood
- Seized sashes on ES 6000 Series single-hung windows. Salt pitting eats into the anodized aluminum frames on Intracoastal-facing units, and the sashes bind in their tracks until they won’t budge. We strip the corroded hardware, clean and lubricate the track, and replace what’s too far gone to save.
- Failed nylon rollers on ES 7000 Series sliding doors. In 1970s-era beach condos, decades of salt accumulation grinds the original rollers down to metal-on-metal. The door gets heavy, then it gets dangerous, then it won’t move at all. We replace with stainless steel rollers that actually hold up in this environment.
- Fogged glazing on ES 5000 Series fixed windows. Near A1A, the seal between panes breaks down and moisture gets in. A fogged unit no longer meets current HVHZ energy codes, and the fix is a new insulated glass unit, not a repair that will fail again next season.
- Broken or seized multipoint locking hardware on ES 7000 Series doors. Salt intrusion works into the gearbox mechanism and the lock either seizes or snaps. On a beachfront condo, that’s a security problem. We rebuild the lock with factory-spec parts when we can, and tell you plainly when the whole door needs to go.
- Condemned frames that won’t hold new hardware. Some Hollywood frames have corroded so badly that new rollers or locks simply have nothing solid to bite into. We don’t patch a condemned frame. We recommend full frame replacement with an HVHZ-approved ES unit, and we explain why that’s the honest call.
ES Windows Service in Hollywood: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Hollywood’s housing stock was largely built between 1950 and 1980, and east of US-1, that means CBS block ranch homes with rough openings notched for jalousie windows, not modern impact units. On streets like Johnson Street and Tyler Street, the original openings are often too narrow for an ES 6000 Series single-hung impact window. The fix isn’t shims and hope: it’s careful block shaving or a full-frame refit that meets Miami-Dade NOA without compromising the lintel above the opening. Get that wrong, and an inspector will fail the job, or worse, the window will leak into the wall cavity and rot the structure behind the stucco. We’ve done this refit so many times in Hollywood’s mid-century grid that we can usually tell a homeowner within a minute whether their opening will take a direct replacement or needs the full-frame treatment.
Meanwhile, along South Ocean Drive and the Intracoastal, the problem is entirely different. The salt spray hits aluminum frames and hardware in concentrated bursts. We once responded to a 1960s condo on South Ocean Drive where an original ES 7000 Series sliding door’s sill track had corroded completely shut. The panel couldn’t be lifted out the standard way. We angle-ground the entire outer frame out of the rough opening, patched the concrete threshold, and set a new ES 7000 Series impact door with stainless steel rollers and an adjustable stainless track. The HOA’s inspector signed off for the milestone retrofit, and that door isn’t going to seize again.
ES Windows Models & Products We Service in Hollywood
We service the full ES Windows lineup that shows up in Hollywood homes and condos: the 7000 Series impact sliding glass doors, 6000 Series impact single-hung windows, 5000 Series non-impact aluminum windows, and 4000 Series awning windows. For ES equipment, we prioritize factory-spec parts, especially rollers, locking mechanisms, and gaskets. Aftermarket tolerances fail fast in Hollywood’s salt-corrosive environment, so we stock the factory-spec components and stainless hardware that actually survive here. When an ES frame is too far gone to hold new hardware securely, we won’t patch it. We recommend full frame replacement with an HVHZ-approved unit, because a repaired frame that rots out six months later is a worse deal for you than honesty up front.
Whether it’s a single sash, a sliding door rack, or a full condo association retrofit under the milestone inspection mandate, our crew handles Hollywood Impact Windows, horizontal roller and sliding impact windows, and full frame replacement with the same care we’d give our own homes.
ES Windows Service Pricing in Hollywood
Most ES Windows service visits in Hollywood land between $150 and $400 for diagnosis and repair, depending on what’s actually wrong when we open up the window or door. Roller replacement on an ES 7000 Series door typically runs $180 to $340 when the frame is sound. Full frame replacement with a new HVHZ-approved ES impact unit runs significantly more, and the number depends on the size of the opening, the framing we encounter, and whether we’re pulling a permit and working around an association’s inspection schedule. Every estimate is a written line item. Every job is priced before we start. Call (727) 483-7883 and we’ll come out, look at what you’ve got, and give you an exact number in writing, free of charge.

FAQs - ES Windows Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Yes. The ES 6000 Series carries Miami-Dade NOA approval, which satisfies Broward County’s HVHZ requirement for Hollywood beachfront and Intracoastal structures. What the approval covers is the product itself. What it doesn’t cover is the Window Installation - Hollywood. Hollywood inspectors reject retrofits when the opening prep, flashing, and anchoring don’t match the NOA’s installation details. That’s where we spend most of our time on condo work: making sure the install matches the paperwork, so your milestone inspection goes through without a punch list. Call (727) 483-7883 if you’re facing a retrofit and want an honest read on your openings.
Salt accumulation from Atlantic spray is the culprit. The original nylon rollers in 1970s ES 7000 doors weren’t designed for decades of salt intrusion, and they grind down to metal-on-metal, then seize. The fix is replacement with stainless steel rollers and, in many beachfront condos we service on South Ocean Drive and the A1A strip, a stainless track that won’t corrode the same way. If the frame itself is corroded, the whole panel may need replacing. Call (727) 483-7883 and we’ll assess it for free.
No. Once the seal between the panes fails, the insulated glass unit is done. There’s no way to restore a fogged unit to code-compliant performance. The proper repair is a new IGU, and in many Hollywood beachfront buildings, the smarter move is a full replacement with an HVHZ-approved ES impact unit that meets current energy and wind-load standards. We’ll tell you how much each path costs before any work starts. Call (727) 483-7883.
Because the product approval and the installation are two separate requirements. An ES window can carry full Miami-Dade NOA approval, but if the rough opening isn’t prepped correctly, the flashing is wrong, or the anchoring doesn’t match the approved details, the inspector has to fail it. This is especially common in Hollywood’s mid-century homes, where jalousie openings are too narrow and the block needs shaving, or where a contractor tried to force an impact unit into an opening it doesn’t fit. We pull permits and work to the NOA details every time, so inspections pass. Call (727) 483-7883 for a free look.
Sometimes. If the frame is sound and the only failure is rollers or locking hardware, we can restore it with factory-spec parts and stainless replacements for a fraction of new-door cost. But if the sill track has corroded shut, the frame is pitted through, or the glass seals are blown, repair money is wasted money. Hollywood’s beachfront buildings are full of 1970s ES doors in exactly this condition, and the honest call often leans toward full replacement. Call (727) 483-7883 and we’ll evaluate your building’s doors and give you a written report.
