AfterWindows & Doors Services in Kendall, FL
Kendall homeowners deal with a particular reality: windows and doors here are not just about curb appeal. They’re the first line of defense against hurricane season, and the Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements mean you can’t simply buy any window off a shelf and install it. Winslow Windows & Doors handles impact windows, door installation, and full replacement work across Kendall, from The Hammocks to Kendall West. When you call (850) 721-1218, a real person answers, any hour. We know which products pass Miami-Dade inspection and which ones will get flagged at rough-in, and that local knowledge saves you from expensive rework before it ever happens.

Why Kendall Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow put his name on this business in 2011, and that changes how we work. No ticket numbers, no call centers, no “we’ll have someone get back to you.” Homeowners in Kendale Lakes, West Kendall, and The Crossings tell us they stayed with us after the first call because someone picked up at 9 p.m. on a Sunday and actually knew what a NOA was. Every technician who arrives at your door is background-checked and in uniform, so you know who’s walking up your driveway before they knock. Our published address and license number are on every estimate, every invoice, and our website. We install eight authorized brands, including PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru, and we back everything with the Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s a hundred-year standard of accountability.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Kendall
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship product for Kendall homes. They combine laminated hurricane glass with reinforced frames engineered to Miami-Dade NOA standards, and they’re tested for large-missile impact, which is what a 2×4 traveling at 50 feet per second does to a window. They protect your home permanently, no shutters to lug out and bolt on as a storm approaches. Learn more about our impact windows in Kendall.
Window Installation
Installing windows in Kendall means pulling permits through Miami-Dade and scheduling rough-in and final inspections, both of which check NOA compliance against the product approval database. Our crews do this every week and know what inspectors look for, from anchoring patterns to sealant application. Learn more about our window installation in Kendall.
Window Replacement
If your home is original 1970s or 1980s CBS construction, chances are good those single-pane aluminum frames are leaking both air and money. We replace them with energy-efficient impact-rated units sized to each opening’s design pressure. Learn more about our window replacement in Kendall.
Door Installation
Front doors, rear doors, side doors: we install Therma-Tru and other NOA-compliant brands that hold up to Kendall’s humidity and hardening systems without warping. A door that doesn’t seal properly lets in both water and your cooling dollars.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
In Kendall, the patio is part of the house. We install sliding glass and French patio doors with laminated impact glass rated for HVHZ conditions, so your view stays wide open and your living room stays protected.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E coatings and insulated frames reduce radiant heat transfer, which matters a lot on a July afternoon in Kendall. Homeowners typically see 20 to 30 percent cooling savings after replacing single-pane originals.
Impact Garage Doors
The garage door is usually the largest opening in the home, and if it fails during a storm, wind pressure can lift the roof. We install impact-rated garage doors braced and tested for Miami-Dade wind loads.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Arched, circular, hexagonal, oversized picture windows: if you can draw it, we can have it fabricated. Custom shapes still need NOA product approval, so we verify configuration against the Miami-Dade database before we order.
Roof Repair
Windows, doors, and roof work together as a weather envelope. We repair storm damage, failed flashing, and leak sources on shingle, tile, and metal roofs across Kendall.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Full tear-off and re-roof in shingle, tile, or standing seam metal, permitted and inspected through Miami-Dade. We coordinate roof work with window and door replacement where openings share flashing and sealing conditions.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
From architectural asphalt shingles to flat-profile concrete tile and metal panels, we install roof systems matched to Kendall’s wind zone and the specific structure of your home.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Kendall
Our technicians know Kendall’s subdivisions block by block: the winding streets of The Hammocks, the lakefront homes in Kendale Lakes, the family-dense subdivisions around The Crossings, the newer construction in Kendall West, and the established communities along Kendall Drive and Sunset Drive. Typical response time for a consultation anywhere in Kendall is same day or next morning, depending on when you call. We keep crews staged locally, so you’re not waiting on a truck from another county.

Why Kendall’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Kendall sits directly in the swath Hurricane Andrew cut through Miami-Dade in 1992. That storm flattened much of the area’s 1970s and 1980s tract housing, and what stands today was rebuilt fast, often with first-generation impact windows and doors that rushed through the early post-Andrew approval process. Those units are now 25 to 30 years old, and we’re seeing them fail: seals between laminated glass layers cloud with condensation, frame corners lose their pressure rating, hardware corrodes in the seasonal humidity. Every replacement in Kendall must meet today’s Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone standards and carry a current Notice of Acceptance, which is the strictest product-approval regime in the United States. Window and door lines sold freely in Orlando or Jacksonville are simply illegal to install here, and that’s not an exaggeration: inspectors check NOA numbers at rough-in and final.

Florida Pays Kendall Homeowners Back
Right now, the incentives stack up if you’re replacing windows and doors in Kendall. The My Safe Florida Home program matches qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades up to $10,000 per household. Florida’s sales-tax exemption removes the tax on impact-resistant windows and doors, which saves seven to eight percent right at the register. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit returns 30 percent of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. And once a wind mitigation inspection runs through your home, which costs $75 to $150, most insurers credit an average of around 25 percent off the windstorm portion of your premium. That inspection often pays for itself in the first year, and the credits renew annually. Programs change, and every carrier sets its own numbers, so we’ll walk you through what currently applies to your Kendall address when we quote the job.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Kendall
How much does impact window replacement cost in Kendall?
A standard impact window in Kendall runs $850 to $1,400 installed per unit, and a full-home replacement typically lands between $11,000 and $22,000 depending on opening count, size, and whether custom geometric shapes are involved. Those numbers include NOA-compliant product, permits, installation, and Miami-Dade inspections. Call (850) 721-1218 for a line-item quote on your specific home, free.
What does NOA approved mean, and why does it matter in Kendall?
A Notice of Acceptance is the Miami-Dade County product approval document that proves a window or door passed the county’s large-missile impact and pressure cycling tests. If a unit doesn’t have a current NOA that matches its exact configuration, meaning size, glass type, and frame, the inspector will reject it and you’ll be removing and replacing it at your own cost. We check every SKU against the Miami-Dade approval database before we order.
Do impact windows really eliminate the need for shutters?
Yes, for any opening where an NOA-approved impact unit is properly installed. Laminated impact glass takes repeated strikes from wind-borne debris without breaching, and the same window then holds its design pressure through the storm. You never raise a panel, never store a shutter, never wonder midnight if you remembered to close up.
Will the price change once work starts?
No. Our price is fixed before we pull permits, and we don’t run change orders unless you ask us to add scope mid-job, which happens occasionally, and then it’s written and signed separately. The invoice matches the contract. Ed’s name is on the door, and he answers for every dollar.
How long does window and door replacement take in Kendall?
Once your custom units arrive, which typically takes four to six weeks for fabrication, installation runs as fast as a single day for most homes. Permits and NOA verification happen before the truck rolls up. We’ll give you a clear schedule at the estimate, including inspection dates.

What Kendall Customers Say
"Our insurance agent asked for the wind mitigation paperwork and Ed had the whole file ready the day the job closed, every opening photographed. The premium conversation went very differently this year."
- Odessa Fairbanks"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"We sat out a hurricane behind the windows Ed put in. The gusts threw a neighbour's trampoline down the street and the loudest thing in our house was the kettle. I rang him after to say thank you and he answered his own phone, same as always."
