Recent Transformations

Impact Window Replacement: Single-Hung to PGT WinGuard in Hobe Sound

Before: original non-impact single-hung windows showing corrosion on frames and failed weatherstripping in Hobe Sound home
Before: original builder-grade single-hung windows, 22 years in the salt air, with visible frame corrosion and compromised weatherstripping.
After: PGT WinGuard impact-rated single-hung windows installed with proper fastening pattern and finished sill pan
After: PGT WinGuard impact-rated single-hung windows, specified for the exposure and fastened to the 2012 Florida Building Code wind-borne debris requirements.

The homeowner called us after Hurricane Nicole drove rain through the original window gaskets and soaked the interior drywall. We measured every opening with a laser sightline tool, recorded the frame readings, and specified PGT WinGuard single-hung units with a 0.30 U-factor and 0.23 SHGC for the west-facing elevation. The old windows came out, the sill pans went in with proper end dams, and we finished with a documented photo record showing the fastening pattern and the dried-in opening. The customer kept the measured survey and the written scope. No surprises.

Sliding Glass Door Replacement: Corroded Track to CGI Estate Collection in Jupiter Island Area

Before: corroded aluminum sliding glass door track with visible pitting and roller failure near Jupiter Island
Before: corroded sliding door track with pitting through the anodized layer, roller failure, and daylight visible under the sash.
After: CGI Estate Collection impact-rated sliding glass door with stainless steel track and multi-point locking hardware
After: CGI Estate Collection impact-rated sliding door with 316 marine-grade stainless steel track and multi-point locking hardware.

This door faced due east, three lots from the Atlantic, and the salt had eaten through the original track in fourteen years. We found 3/16-inch of vertical play in the sash and daylight under the weatherstrip. The replacement specification was CGI Estate Collection with a stainless steel track upgrade, not aluminum, because that’s what the exposure required. We pulled the permit through Martin County, passed inspection on the first visit, and the photo record shows the track level, the shims in place, and the multi-point lock engaging flush. Written price before work started: $4,200-$4,800 range for the opening, including permit and inspection.

Energy-Efficient Window Upgrade: Clear Glass to ECO Window Systems Low-E in Hobe Sound

Before: original clear glass windows with high solar heat gain and faded interior flooring in Hobe Sound residence
Before: clear glass double-hungs with no Low-E coating, contributing to 87°F peak interior readings on the south-facing rooms in March.
After: ECO Window Systems energy-efficient double-hung windows with Low-E glazing and argon gas fill
After: ECO Window Systems double-hungs with Low-E366 glazing and argon gas fill, specified for the SHGC target.

The homeowner’s FPL bill hit $340 in July, and the oak flooring was sun-bleached six feet from the south windows. We took frame readings and found the existing clear glass was transmitting 0.82 SHGC, which is basically a greenhouse. The specification was ECO Window Systems with Low-E366 and argon fill, bringing the SHGC down to 0.25. We wrote the price at $380-$520 per opening depending on size, installed, with the measured survey attached. The photo record shows the glazing spec sticker, the sealed IG unit, and the finished interior trim. Peak interior reading in August: 76°F.

Custom Geometric Window: Trapezoid Installation in Hobe Sound

Before: boarded trapezoid window opening with water damage to surrounding framing in Hobe Sound home
Before: trapezoid opening boarded for eleven months after a failed installation by another contractor left water intrusion and rotted framing.
After: custom trapezoid window with integrated flanges and proper sill pan installation in Hobe Sound residence
After: custom trapezoid unit from PGT with integrated nailing flange, site-built sill pan, and factory-applied flashing tape.

This was a botched job we inherited. The previous installer had set a rectangular unit into a trapezoid rough opening with expanding foam and caulk, which lasted one wet season. We found rot in the jack studs and a sill that pitched toward the house. Our crew opened the wall, sistered the framing, built a proper sill pan with end dams, and ordered a true trapezoid from PGT with the flange profile matched to the slope. The written scope included the reframing, the custom unit, and the finish carpentry: $3,800-$4,400. The photo record shows the sistered studs, the pan installation, and the sightline measurement confirming the unit was square to within 1/16 inch. Haven Clause 5: No surprises.

Impact Garage Door Replacement: Non-Rated to Mr-Glass Impact-Rated in Hobe Sound

Before: non-impact garage door with visible panel damage and failed weather seal in Hobe Sound home
Before: non-impact steel garage door with dented panels from a 2022 tropical storm and a bottom seal that no longer contacted the slab.
After: Mr-Glass impact-rated garage door with reinforced track and heavy-duty hardware in Hobe Sound residence
After: Mr-Glass impact-rated garage door with 14-gauge reinforced track, heavy-duty rollers, and Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance labeling.

The homeowner’s insurance carrier dropped wind coverage after the 2022 storm damage, citing the non-rated garage door as the weak point in the envelope. We specified Mr-Glass impact-rated with the Miami-Dade NOA, not because it’s the most expensive line we carry, but because it’s the one that satisfies the underwriting requirement. The installation included a 14-gauge track upgrade, heavy-duty rollers, and a new torsion spring assembly matched to the door weight. Safety note: garage door spring systems store lethal tension and should only be serviced by trained technicians. We wrote the price at $2,600-$3,200 including removal and disposal. Permit pulled, inspection passed, photo record delivered.

Entry Door Replacement: Rotten Jamb to Therma-Tru Fiberglass in Hobe Sound

Before: entry door with rotted jamb, compromised sill, and failed weatherstripping in Hobe Sound home
Before: fiberglass skin door with a rotted wood jamb, sill decay, and weatherstripping that compressed to 1/8-inch and leaked.
After: Therma-Tru fiberglass entry door with composite jamb and adjustable sill in Hobe Sound residence
After: Therma-Tru fiberglass entry system with composite jamb, adjustable aluminum sill, and multi-point locking hardware.

The jamb rot was advanced enough that the deadbolt no longer seated securely, which the homeowner noticed when the door rattled in a thunderstorm. We found the sill pan was missing entirely, and water had been running behind the brickmold for years. The specification was Therma-Tru with a composite jamb, not wood, because composite doesn’t rot. We built a proper sill pan, flashed the rough opening to the WRB, and set the adjustable sill to contact the door bottom without drag. Written price: $1,800-$2,400 depending on sidelite configuration. The photo record shows the pan, the flashing sequence, and the hardware engagement. Haven Clause 4: Evidence on every job.

KKofi B.
★★★★

"Good crew, tidy install, finished a day early. Paperwork had the license number on it."
