AfterFast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Sunrise
Window replacement in Sunrise, FL typically runs between $650 and $1,850 per opening for a full-frame impact-rated installation, depending on the frame material, glass package, and whether the unit sits in a single-family home or a condo requiring association sign-off. Most Sunrise homeowners we work with are replacing original 1970s aluminum jalousies or single-pane sliders that no longer meet Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code. If you live in Sunrise Lakes Phase I through IV or any of the dozens of similar condo communities off Oakland Park Boulevard and Nob Hill Road, the process has an extra step most contractors don’t mention until the crew gets turned away at the building. We’ll walk you through it before you spend a dollar. Call (772) 577-2915 for a free estimate, or keep reading and we’ll lay it out plain.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
We’ve been doing window and door work in Sunrise long enough to know the difference between a Sunrise Lakes Phase II unit and a townhome off Northwest 64th Avenue. That matters because the approval path is different, the frame-height restrictions are different, and the association’s architectural expectations are different. We don’t send a crew to Sunrise with a Broward County permit in hand and hope for the best. We file both applications the same week. That alone saves most of our Sunrise customers three to six weeks of standing around.
TruePane is led by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier who founded the company in 2008 on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We’re not a franchise outfit shuffling crews around South Florida. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and answer the phone with a live person 24 hours a day. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and they measure every opening twice before a quote is ever written. The Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard mean both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. No paperwork fights. No arguing. That’s the deal, and it’s been the deal since 2008 of community service across South Florida.
Our Window Replacement Services in Sunrise
Each home in Sunrise has its own set of problems, but the housing stock here is consistent enough that we know what to expect on most jobs. Here’s what we handle most often in Sunrise.
Full Frame Replacement
Full-frame replacement means we remove the entire old window down to the rough opening and set a new unit with fresh flashing, jamb extensions, and a proper seal. This is the correct fix for Sunrise homes built between the late 1960s and mid-1980s where the original aluminum frames have corroded at the corners or failed at the jamb. In Sunrise Lakes condos especially, full-frame replacement is often the only path to a NOA-rated impact window that passes both the Broward County inspection and the association’s final walk-through. A typical full-frame impact replacement in Sunrise runs $1,100 to $1,850 per opening.
Insert Window Replacement
Inserts fit a new window inside the existing frame. They’re faster and less disruptive, but they only work when the original frame is square, dry, and structurally sound. We see a lot of Sunrise townhome and single-family tract homes where inserts are a perfectly good option, particularly on interior-facing windows that don’t need full impact glazing. If your frame has seal failure at the jamb or water staining below the sill, an insert won’t fix it. We’ll tell you straight which one your opening needs, and an insert window in Sunrise typically runs $600 to $950 per opening.
Storm Window Replacement
Storm windows in Sunrise are not a cosmetic add-on. This is a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and the Florida Building Code treats every exterior opening as a structural weak point. A storm window replacement for a Sunrise home means installing an impact-rated product with a valid Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or Florida Product Approval. We carry and install NOA-rated lines from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, among others. If your current windows are single-pane aluminum from the 1970s, a storm-grade replacement is the single largest improvement you can make to your home’s safety and your insurance file. Expect $800 to $1,600 per opening for a standard impact window in Sunrise.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Even several miles inland, Sunrise gets brutal summer heat and humidity from May through October. Low-E, argon-filled insulated glass units make a measurable difference on Florida Power & Light bills, especially in the Sunrise Lakes communities where original jalousies leak conditioned air at every louver. An energy-efficient upgrade in a Sunrise condo or single-family home typically runs $700 to $1,400 per window depending on glass package and frame material. We write side-by-side quotes on paper with manufacturer lines like Andersen, Pella, and Milgard so you can see exactly what you’re paying for before you sign.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including. What that means for your Sunrise job is simple: we don’t push one brand because the margin is better. We quote the lines that fit your budget, your frame constraints, and your association’s architectural requirements, and we quote them side by side on paper. If your Sunrise Lakes board requires a uniform white frame, we spec a line that offers it in the exact profile the board has already approved. Stock and lead times vary by manufacturer, but we keep a working inventory of common Sunrise sizes and handle the ordering and delivery scheduling so you don’t chase freight.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Permitted but not approved. A crew shows up in Sunrise Lakes with a Broward County permit, but the condo association’s architectural board hasn’t cleared the frame color and style. The building manager turns them away, and the job sits for weeks. We file the submittal packet with the board the same week we file the county permit application.
- Non-impact windows installed to match a neighbor’s look. A homeowner or a cut-rate contractor switches to a plain insulated double-hung because it matches the older units down the hall. The Broward County HVHZ inspection fails it because there’s no Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval sticker. That’s a full redo and a wasted permit fee.
- Sash-only replacement on a failing 1970s aluminum frame. The glass gets swapped but the original frame stays. Then a summer storm drives water through the jamb seal and the association holds you responsible for not doing a full-frame replacement. We flag this before we quote, not after.
- Original jalousie windows with fogged panes and failed sashes. The Sunrise Lakes communities were built with jalousie windows that are now decades past their service life. They leak air, they fog, and they make your unit feel ten degrees warmer than the thermostat says. We replace them with NOA-rated impact casements or sliders that pass the board’s uniform style requirements.
Pricing for Window Replacement in Sunrise, FL
Here’s what a typical Sunrise job costs, per opening, installed:
- Insert window replacement: $600-$950
- Storm window replacement (impact, NOA-rated): $800-$1,600
- Energy-efficient upgrade (low-E, argon-filled): $700-$1,400

What moves the number in Sunrise is the approval path, not just the window. A single-family home off Sunset Strip with no association may take a week from permit to install. A Sunrise Lakes Phase III condo can add two to six weeks for the architectural review depending on the board’s calendar. We build that into the schedule and the quote up front, so you don’t get a surprise change order because the board needed three revisions on the frame profile. Call (772) 577-2915 for an exact quote. Estimates are free, written, and line-itemed.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Sunrise
TruePane files it for you. We submit the submittal packet to the condo association’s architectural review board the same week we file the Broward County building permit application, so the two approvals run in parallel instead of back to back. In the Sunrise Lakes phases, the board’s timeline typically runs two to six weeks depending on meeting cadence and whether they ask for revisions on frame color or style. Planning for the board to take the full six weeks means the crew never shows up to a locked building. Call (772) 577-2915 and we’ll walk you through the specific board for your phase.
No. Even if the new window matches the old one in every visible dimension, the Sunrise Lakes architectural review process is a separate approval from the Broward County permit, and the building manager will turn the crew away without the board’s sign-off regardless of how identical the unit looks. We’ve seen jobs stall three weeks because a contractor assumed matching meant approved. File the submittal. We handle it, so there’s no reason to risk the delay. Call (772) 577-2915 for specifics on your association’s packet.
Every exterior window in Sunrise falls under Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code, which requires a valid Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or Florida Product Approval for any impact-rated product. Without the sticker on the unit and the paperwork in the file, the inspection fails and your insurance file is worse than before. We only install NOA-rated lines, and we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. Call (772) 577-2915 if you want us to check whether your current windows carry a valid approval.
Jalousies fail because they were never designed to seal against the heat, humidity, and storm-driven rain we get in Sunrise. The louvers warp, the seals crack, the aluminum corrodes at the corners, and the glass fogs from failed edge seals. In a Sunrise Lakes condo, you can switch styles to an impact casement or slider, but the frame color and profile must match the association’s uniform standard, which the architectural board enforces. We spec units that satisfy the board and the code officer at the same time. Call (772) 577-2915 and we’ll pull the style sheet for your phase.
Insurers in Sunrise are actively flagging original aluminum single-pane and jalousie windows at resale and at renewal, even though Sunrise is several miles inland. The HVHZ designation covers the entire city, and Citizens and the major carriers have been tightening underwriting on homes without impact-rated openings since the last major storm cycle. We’ve replaced windows in Sunrise homes specifically because the insurer gave the owner 60 days to provide proof of NOA-rated glazing or lose the policy. Not every policy has that clause, but enough of them do that it’s worth checking before the renewal letter arrives. Call (772) 577-2915 for a free estimate, and we’ll include the product-approval documentation your insurer will want.
