Fast, Reliable Window Installation Across Palm Beach
Window installation in Palm Beach almost always means working with two masters at once: the Landmarks Preservation Commission on one side, and Miami-Dade’s wind and impact codes on the other. We’ve handled that intersection for years, and we schedule crews on the island within 48 hours most weeks. If you need a straight answer about what your windows will cost, call (728) 728-9381 and a live person here in our West Palm Beach office will walk through the numbers with you.
Why Meridian Windows and Doors West Palm Beach Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Window Installation Company
Palm Beach homeowners have a specific worry: will the replacement window pass architectural review? We’ve worked through enough Certificate of Appropriateness applications to know what the Landmarks Preservation Commission lets through and what it sends back. Our Window Installation team specs impact-rated products from PGT and CGI that meet Miami-Dade NOA standards, then documents the design against the original Mizner-era profile before submission. That paperwork discipline is the difference between a permit issued in weeks and a six-figure stop-work order.
We also answer the phone. A live person takes your call at (728) 728-9381 any hour, any day. That matters when you’re standing under a leaking jalousie window with a tropical storm forming off the coast and you need a written plan, not a voicemail.
Elliot Vance runs our operation with a simple rule: the price goes on paper before work starts, and it does not move at the door. Every install carries a 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work fails within that year, we return at no charge. That’s The Garrison Standard, the code every crew works under.
Window Installers in Palm Beach
Window Installers handle the full replacement: removing the old sash or jalousie assembly, rebuilding the opening to square and level, flashing it against driving rain and salt, setting the new unit, and finishing both sides clean. In Palm Beach, this scope routinely expands once the wall is opened, because original 1920s and 1950s houses hide rot behind stucco that no exterior inspection can see.
Most straightforward window replacements in Palm Beach run $900 to $3,000 per opening installed, depending on size, frame material, and whether the unit is non-impact or impact-rated. A full oceanfront elevation with large fixed panes and multiple openings will sit higher. The number that matters is the one we put in writing before any work begins.
Hidden Framing Repairs
Salt air eats the original steel casement hardware and fasteners in a decade, not a century. When we pull the old unit, we often find the jamb behind it is powder. We write an allowance into the contract for framing repair, show you photos of what we found, and get your approval in writing before rebuilding anything.
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware Only
We don’t reinstall standard interior hardware on a barrier island. Stainless fasteners, corrosion-resistant hinges, and powder-coated operators only. A sash swap with cheap hardware fails the first time hurricane pressure flexes the frame.
Casement Windows in Palm Beach
Casement Windows are the workhorse of Palm Beach historic homes, because the original iron casements from the 1920s and 1930s were built with a crank operation and a tight seal that Miami-Dade codes still respect today. Replacing them means either a custom replication to match the Mizner profile or a modern impact-rated casement from CGI or PGT with a laminated glass interlayer that passes both wind-load testing and architectural review.
Casement replacement in Palm Beach typically runs $1,800 to $4,500 per unit installed, with the higher end covering custom sizes, historical-profile replication, or large fixed casement combinations. We spec every unit against the structure’s wind zone and the specific opening dimensions before we quote.
Historical Profile Matching
Some oceanfront mansions near Wells Road still carry original hand-forged iron casement windows with operable transoms. Those cannot simply be swapped for a stock vinyl unit. We work with local fabricators to reproduce the sightlines, the ironwork pattern, and the hardware scale, then run the design through Landmarks Preservation Commission review before a permit is filed.
Modern Impact Casements
When a historic profile isn’t required, we lean on PGT and CGI’s impact-rated casement lines. They give you the same crank operation with Miami-Dade NOA approval, stainless hardware, and insulated low-E glass. Most casement installs on non-landmarked homes complete in a day, with framing repair added if the opening shows rot.
Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
We hold eight manufacturer lines in our portfolio, and in Palm Beach we most often specify PGT or CGI for impact-rated work, with Therma-Tru for entry systems and ES Windows when a homeowner wants a high-end architectural aluminum profile. Because we’re authorized across these brands, we can order exact replacement sashes, matching hardware, and glass interlayers without playing middleman. That means faster turnaround when a storm takes out one window and you need a match ordered without a delay.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Rotted framing behind stucco. Original 1920s casements and 1950s jalousies rarely had continuous flashing. Rain and salt fog work behind the stucco until the jamb is dust. We open the wall, photo-document the rot, and write a change order with a fixed price before rebuilding.
- Failed waterproofing on 1980s patch jobs. We’ve opened walls on 1930s oceanfront estates and found a previous contractor had undersized the rough opening and stuffed it with shims. The waterproofing had failed years ago. We rebuild the opening with pressure-treated framing and stainless flashing, then sign off on the new flashing system in writing.
- Salt-corrosion on hardware and operators. The crank on an original steel casement will freeze solid within five to ten years of oceanfront exposure. The correct repair is not lubrication; it’s replacement with a corrosion-resistant operator and stainless linkage. Half-fixes fail again.
- Unapproved window swaps becoming stop-work orders. Palm Beach requires a Certificate of Appropriateness for any window installation visible from the street or on a landmarked structure. We’ve seen homeowners ordered to remove new impact windows because the product profile didn’t match the original. We handle the paperwork first, then the install.
Pricing for Window Installation in Palm Beach, FL
Plan on $900 to $3,000 per opening for a standard single- or double-hung replacement in Palm Beach, and $1,800 to $4,500 per unit for casement windows, with custom historical replication running higher. Non-impact units sit at the low end; Miami-Dade NOA-rated impact units from PGT or CGI sit higher but protect the interior when a hurricane delivers wind-borne debris at the barrier island.
Three factors move a Palm Beach quote the most: Landmarks Preservation Commission review requirements, hidden framing or waterproofing repair once walls are open, and the hardware/finish spec after salt exposure is measured. We write an allowance for these into the contract, so the number on your estimate reflects real local risk, not optimistic pricing. Call (728) 728-9381 for a written quote. Estimates are free.

Usually the discovery of corroded fasteners, rotted jamb wood, or failed waterproofing, especially on pre-1960s homes within salt-spray distance of the ocean.
