Replacing windows or doors in Tamarac usually means one of two situations: you’re tired of the draft and the climbing FPL bill, or you’ve been told the original single-pane aluminum units no longer meet Broward County code. Either way, you want a straight answer on cost, a real person on the phone, and an installer who won’t disappear after the deposit clears. Winslow Windows & Doors serves all four Tamarac ZIP codes with impact windows, doors, and roofing, and you’ll speak to a live person any time you call (904) 913-5886.
Ed Winslow’s name is on the door, and on every job we do. No ticket numbers, no call centers, and no vague estimates. Just a local crew that knows exactly what Tamarac’s 1960s and 1970s CBS construction requires before the old frame even comes out.

Why Tamarac Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Tamarac is a city of concrete block ranch homes and garden condos, most of them built between 1963 and the mid-1980s, and most still holding their original single-pane aluminum windows. When we pull a permit on a home near the Village at Coral Lakes Clubhouse or in the 33319 ZIP, the inspector knows our work before we open the truck. That’s the benefit of doing this long enough in one place.
We’re also the company homeowners call after a bad experience with a big-box retailer’s subcontracted crew. You’ll get a background-checked, uniformed technician every time, upfront pricing in writing, and the 36500-Day Done Right Promise behind every window, door, and roof we touch. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s not a marketing slogan, it’s the standard Ed holds his own crews to, and we’ve operated that way since 2011.
Our published address, license number, and live 24/7 phone line are on every estimate. Homeowners in Woodmont and the 33320 corridor call us because they know who’s coming to their door before the truck rolls up, and because a real person answers at 2 a.m., not an answering service.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Tamarac
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship of what we do in Tamarac, and for good reason. Every permitted replacement in this city must meet Broward County’s high-velocity hurricane zone requirements, and impact-rated glazing is the only way to satisfy that code permanently. We install PGT and CGI laminated glass units with Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval per configuration, matched to the design pressure each opening actually needs. Learn more about our Impact Windows in Tamarac.
Window Installation
Tamarac’s CBS construction means most window openings are fixed-size masonry pockets. A proper installation often requires custom sizing and pressure-treated buck framing before the new unit can be set, which is exactly the kind of step a rushed crew skips. Our installers handle it from the first measurement to the final stucco patch. Learn more about our Window Installation in Tamarac.
Window Replacement
Most Tamarac homes still run original aluminum single-pane or jalousie windows, and every one of them fails today’s energy and impact expectations. Whether you’re replacing one failed unit or every opening on a 1978 ranch, we quote the job line by line so you see exactly where the money goes. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Tamarac.
Door Installation
Tamarac Door Installation for ranch homes takes a beating from the afternoon sun and summer downpours. We replace front doors, side doors, and utility doors with Therma-Tru units built for South Florida humidity, hung square and sealed tight so the lock actually works in August.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Tamarac’s Sliding Glass & Patio Doors from the 1970s on rear lanais are a recurring job for us, especially in 33319 and 33320. Corroded frames, bent tracks, and settled openings out of square mean almost every swap requires shimming, reframing, and stucco repair before the new impact unit passes inspection. We quote that work honestly up front, so there’s no surprise on the invoice.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in Tamarac with Low-E coating typically cut cooling load by 20 to 30 percent during the worst of summer. When you’re running AC from April through October, that savings shows up on the bill. We’ll walk you through which glass packages make sense for each exposure on your home, without upselling features you don’t need on the north wall.
Impact Garage Doors
Impact Garage Doors in Tamarac matter because an unbraced garage door is the single largest opening on most homes, and the most likely to fail in a wind event. We install impact-rated garage doors that meet the same Broward County code requirements as your windows and entry doors, so the entire envelope holds together.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Not every Tamarac home takes a stock size. Half-rounds, angles, triangles, oversized picture windows: we order them custom from CWS and ES Windows, engineered to the same impact standards as rectangular units. If it’s a shaped opening, we can fit it.
Roof Repair
Wind-driven rain and afternoon thunderstorms expose weak spots fast on aging shingle and tile roofs. We repair leaks, damaged flashing, and storm-broken shingles on Tamarac homes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a repair or replacement makes sense for your roof’s remaining life.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A new roof is a five-figure decision, and you deserve a fixed price before we start, not a change order halfway through. We install shingle, tile, and metal roofing systems built for Broward County’s wind and rain, with permits pulled and inspections passed on every job.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Tamarac’s older ranch homes often carry original tile or shingle roofs that are decades past their useful life. We install all three roofing types to current Florida Building Code standards, and we’ll help you understand which material makes sense for your home’s structure and your budget.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Tamarac
We work across all of Tamarac, from the condos along West Sample Road to the single-family streets off Northwest 31st Avenue. Our crews know the housing stock block by block, which means the estimate you get reflects your home, not a generic number for the county.

Why Tamarac’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Tamarac sits roughly 10 miles inland from the Atlantic, so we don’t deal with the direct salt-spray corrosion that eats frames in Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood. What we do deal with is daily summer thunderstorms, sustained humidity above 90 percent, and intense UV that destroys weatherstripping, vinyl seals, and uncoated aluminum in a matter of years if the materials aren’t built for it. Add to that the city’s dense concentration of 1960s through 1980s CBS homes still fitted with original jalousie or single-pane sliding windows, and you get a replacement volume that’s enormous and entirely predictable.
Tamarac was developed almost entirely between 1963 and the mid-1980s as a planned retirement community. The building patterns from that era leave us with fixed-size masonry openings, meaning replacement windows frequently require custom sizing and stucco patching before a new impact unit can be set properly. It’s slower work done right, and anyone quoting a rock-bottom price is likely skipping the steps that make the window pass inspection and hold up for the next 30 years.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Tamarac
Every Tamarac home is different, and we price accordingly, in writing, line by line. Here’s what you can expect as a general range:
- Impact window (standard size, installed): $850 – $1,600 per opening
- Impact sliding glass door (6 ft, installed): $3,200 – $5,500

Our home page has the full picture, or call (904) 913-5886 and Ed or a team member will walk you through it. Standup pricing, no surprises on the invoice.
Why Impact Windows Beat Shutters in Tamarac
Some homeowners still consider hurricane shutters as a lower-cost alternative to impact windows. Here’s the honest comparison: shutters only protect when someone is home to deploy them, and hanging steel panels on a second-story Tamarac condo in August heat is nobody’s idea of practical. Impact windows and doors are always in place, always protecting, and they don’t require muscle, storage, or warning time. They also cut UV and outside noise by up to 40 percent, which shutters do nothing for. We don’t sell or install shutters, but we’ll gladly show you why most Tamarac homeowners decide impact glass is the smarter long-term investment.
Florida Pays Tamarac Homeowners Back
If you’re upgrading to impact windows and doors in Tamarac, there’s real money on the table right now. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and there’s a sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors in Florida. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit can return 30 percent of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. After a wind-mitigation inspection (typically $75 to $150), many homeowners also see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of their policy.
We won’t guarantee a specific rebate or premium credit, because the programs and carriers set the final numbers. But we’ll point you toward every dollar you’re owed and document your installation properly so the inspection goes smoothly.

What Tamarac Customers Say
"Three big companies quoted us and every one sent a salesman with a leased truck. Ed turned up in a truck with his own name on the door, quoted less, and his crew were the same faces on day one and day nine."
- Yolanda Betancourt"Ed measured every opening himself and walked me through the product approval paperwork before I signed anything. When the inspector came he found the notice of acceptance taped inside a window like it should be and passed us first visit."
- Rosalind Beaumont"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
