Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Sunrise
Window replacement in Sunrise, FL typically runs $650-$1,400 per opening for standard vinyl impact-rated units, with full-frame replacements on older homes starting around $1,100 when framing repairs are needed. Most Sunrise jobs require impact-rated glass under Broward County’s HVHZ code, and we complete measured surveys within 48 hours of your call.
We’re the Window Replacement team that serves Sunrise from our South Florida scheduling office, with crews who know the difference between a Sunrise Lakes Phase III ARB packet and a standard county permit pull. The homes here were built fast between the late 1960s and early 1980s, and that speed shows in the original aluminum single-pane windows still glazing most of the city’s housing stock. We’ve replaced thousands of them. Call (754) 254-5294 to schedule your measured survey - the written price we deliver is the same document that governs the install.
Why Sightline Windows & Doors Sunrise Is Sunrise’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
Sightline operates independently under the Haven Standard, which has governed every one of the 18,000+ windows and doors we’ve installed since 2012. In Sunrise, that standard means something specific: we know the two-track approval process that governs work in the city’s massive planned communities, and we don’t start until both tracks are cleared.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before they arrive at your Sunrise home - Haven Clause 3, Verified Crews. The photo record we leave behind documents every stage, from the measured survey you keep to the final caulk line. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every job, not offered as a courtesy.
Calls to (754) 254-5294 are answered by a live person, 24/7. No voicemail queue. No callback window.
We’ve learned Sunrise’s building patterns by working in them: the CBS block and stucco construction of Inverrary, the phased condo associations of Sunrise Lakes, the single-family pockets off Oakland Park Boulevard where 1970s ranch homes carry original aluminum frames that have been oxidizing for 45 years. That local knowledge keeps your job on schedule.
Our Window Replacement Services in Sunrise

Full Frame Replacement
Full frame replacement is what most Sunrise homes actually need, even when the initial call asks for something simpler. The original aluminum single-pane windows installed across Sunrise Lakes, Inverrary, and the Oakland Park corridor were never designed to carry the weight or design pressure of modern impact-rated units. We remove the entire frame, inspect the rough opening for water damage and oxidation, and sister new pressure-treated framing where the old 2x4s can’t carry the load.
Our crew replaced the original 1978 single-pane aluminum sliders and double-hungs in a Sunrise Lakes unit with PGT impact-rated windows using low-E insulated glass. During tear-out we found the 2×4 jamb framing was undersized and water-damaged from years of failed seals, so we sistered new pressure-treated framing and repaired the waterproofing before installing the new units. We priced that framing repair as a written change order and got the owner’s approval before touching a single board - the ARB packet and county permit were already in motion, so the job closed without the multi-week delay most contractors hit there.
Haven Clause 1: the measurement and the quote are the same document. Any framing repair is priced and approved in writing before we touch it.

Insert Window Replacement
Insert replacement fits a new window into an existing frame, which sounds economical until you open a 1970s Sunrise wall. We offer this service where the existing frame is sound, but we don’t recommend it for most of the city’s housing stock. The aluminum frames in Sunrise’s 40-50 year old homes typically show frame oxidation, failed glazing seals, and threshold waterproofing that won’t survive tear-out. We tell you this during the measured survey, not during demo.
If your Sunrise home has newer construction or a previously updated frame, we’ll document why an insert makes sense and price it accordingly. If it doesn’t, we’ll show you the frame readings and explain why full frame replacement is the only code-compliant path.

Vinyl Replacement Windows
Vinyl frames don’t oxidize in Sunrise’s salt-laden, high-humidity climate. Aluminum does. That’s why we specify vinyl impact-rated units from ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass for most Sunrise replacements - the frames withstand the UV and humidity that destroyed the original aluminum in two decades. U-factor and SHGC ratings are printed on the spec sheet we leave with you; we match the performance tier to your home’s orientation and your cooling load, not to what’s in stock.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Sunrise sits 10-12 miles inland, far enough from the Atlantic to miss the direct salt spray but close enough to feel it in the air. That combination - intense UV, sustained humidity, periodic salt loading - accelerates thermal failure in single-pane and early double-pane units. Our energy-efficient upgrades specify low-E insulated glass with argon fill, rated for the Broward County HVHZ zone, from manufacturers including ES Windows and ECO Window Systems.
The measured survey includes a frame reading and sightline measurement that determine whether your existing opening can carry the thicker insulated unit or needs reframing. We don’t guess. We measure, write the price, and install to that document.

Window Maintenance & Care
Maintenance on 40-year-old aluminum windows in Sunrise is usually diagnostic: we document what’s failing, show you the photo evidence, and tell you whether repair or replacement is the cost-effective path. Hardware corrosion, glazing seal failure, and frame oxidation into the surrounding CBS block are the three conditions we find most often in Sunrise Lakes and Inverrary. When replacement is the better value, we price it in writing and schedule the permit work.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We specify from eight manufacturer lines - PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux - matched to the opening’s performance requirements and your price range. In Sunrise, that usually means impact-rated vinyl from ECO Window Systems or Mr-Glass for the mid-tier replacement market, with ES Windows available for higher thermal performance specifications. We don’t push what’s in stock; we measure what’s needed and source accordingly. Every unit carries the documentation required for Broward County’s HVHZ permit inspection and, where applicable, the Sunrise Lakes ARB approval packet.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Sunrise Homes

- Aluminum frame oxidation into CBS block. The original aluminum frames in Sunrise’s 1970s-80s housing stock have been oxidizing for 40-50 years. In many homes, that oxidation has eaten into the surrounding concrete block, which means the new frame can’t anchor properly without repair. We inspect for this during the measured survey and write the repair into the scope before demo starts.
- Failed glazing seals and threshold waterproofing. Sunrise’s year-round humidity and periodic salt-laden air destroy seals faster than in drier inland climates. Once we open the wall, the old waterproofing almost always needs fresh membrane detailing to meet current HVHZ design pressure and large-missile rating. We build this into our standard scope, not as a surprise.
- Undersized or damaged jamb framing. The 2×4 framing original to most Sunrise homes wasn’t sized for the weight and design pressure of modern impact-rated units. We sister new pressure-treated framing where needed, priced and approved in writing before installation.
- Outdated wiring exposed during tear-out. Opening a 1970s wall in Sunrise sometimes reveals electrical that doesn’t meet current code. We don’t touch it; we document it, stop work, and refer you to a licensed electrician. If code upgrades are required, we write the allowance into the contract before we start.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Sunrise

Because Sunrise Lakes requires two separate approvals before work starts: the condo association’s architectural review board (ARB) and Broward County’s HVHZ impact-glazing permit. Pulling the county permit first without ARB approval routinely stalls jobs for weeks. Sightline pre-submits the association package before we ever file for the permit, so both tracks clear together. Call (754) 254-5294 and we’ll walk you through the timeline for your specific phase.
Yes. Broward County enforces 140+ mph design wind-load compliance on every permitted replacement, so virtually every window and door job in Sunrise is simultaneously a retrofit and a full impact-upgrade. The original aluminum single-pane units installed in the 1970s and 1980s are non-impact-rated and would not pass inspection even if reinstalled. We specify PGT, CGI, or CWS impact-rated units that carry the Miami-Dade and Broward HVHZ approvals required for your permit. Call (754) 254-5294 for a measured survey that specifies the exact product for your opening.
It can, which is why we inspect first and write allowances into the contract. The most common surprises in Sunrise homes are water-damaged jamb framing, aluminum oxidation into the CBS block, and outdated wiring that code upgrades trigger once the wall is open. We document frame readings and sightline measurements during our survey, price known conditions in the written scope, and require your approval on any written change order before we address an unforeseen condition. The photo record we keep shows what we found and what we did. Call (754) 254-5294 to review how we structure allowances for your home’s age and condition.
Many Sunrise homeowners see reductions in both, but the exact savings depend on your carrier and your home’s current thermal performance. Impact-rated windows with low-E insulated glass typically reduce cooling load by 15-30% compared to single-pane aluminum, and several insurers offer wind-mitigation credits for HVHZ-rated openings. We document the product specifications - U-factor, SHGC, design pressure rating - that your insurer or energy auditor will need. Call (754) 254-5294 and we’ll include that documentation with your written quote.
We repair it before installing the new unit. Aluminum oxidation into concrete block is common in 40-50 year old Sunrise homes; it compromises the anchor points and creates a thermal bridge. During the measured survey, we inspect for visible oxidation and note it in the scope. If the condition is worse than expected during tear-out, we price the block repair as a written change order, get your approval, and proceed. We don’t install a new window onto damaged substrate - Haven Clause 5, No surprises. Call (754) 254-5294 to schedule an inspection.
Call (754) 254-5294 to schedule your free measured survey. You’ll receive a written price before any work starts, a documented photo record when the job is done, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped on every installation. Haven Clause 1 through 5, start to finish.
