AfterTrusted Impact Windows for Wellington Homeowners
If you live in Wellington, you already know the math that counts: hurricane season runs six months long, and a single storm can turn an ordinary window into a hazard. Impact windows are the difference between a house that takes the hit and a house that doesn’t. We’ve been installing and servicing impact windows in Wellington since 2008, and the principle that runs the company hasn’t changed in years of family glazing work: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
What you get with TruePane Windows & Doors is a local crew that shows up on time, measures every opening twice, and stands behind the work with a Done Right Promise. No fine print, no arguing. Call (561) 349-4826 and you’ll reach a live person, not a voicemail tree, any hour of the day.
What Our Impact Windows Service Includes
Impact Window Installation
New impact windows in Wellington are not a sideline for us. They are the core of what we do. Every installation starts with a full inspection of the existing openings: we check the condition of the framing, look for rot or termite damage behind the old trim, and confirm that the rough opening is square before a single window leaves the truck. Then we set the unit true, flash it so water runs away from the opening, and register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave the driveway.
Wellington homes built in the 1980s and 1990s often show the same pattern: aluminum frames corroding at the corners and sealant that has dried to powder. When we pull those old units, we regularly find gaps the homeowner never saw. An impact window is only as good as the opening around it. We have been called in to correct installs from other contractors who set the pane out of level, and that is precisely the failure the Keystone Standard exists to prevent.
Most installations are completed in a single visit, with no surprise line items on the bill. You’ll get an upfront, written quote that lists the manufacturer, the model, the glass package, and the labor separately so you see exactly what you are buying.
Impact Window Replacement
If your existing impact windows are fogged, binding, or from a brand that no longer supports its own product line, replacement is the honest fix. Wellington’s humidity and afternoon thunderstorms put constant stress on seals and hardware, and a window that is cloudy by year ten will not protect you any better by year fifteen. We replace impact windows with newer units that match the opening and meet current Florida Building Code wind-load requirements for Wellington’s location in Palm Beach County.
We quote side by side on paper. If you want to compare a PGT unit against a CGI unit, you’ll see both prices, both warranty durations, and both installation dates in writing before you commit to anything. That’s a square deal, the way Dale Kessler runs it.
Old impact windows can still be good candidates for glazing replacement or hardware repair rather than a full swap. We’ll tell you if that’s the case, because the founding rule cuts both ways: we never sell a job that isn’t needed.
Impact Window Glass Replacement
A cracked impact pane still holds together, but it’s lost its structural integrity and needs to be replaced before the next named storm. In Wellington, where golf-ball hail and flying tree debris are regular seasonal visitors, we see cracked outer lites on homes all through the equestrian neighborhoods and the gated communities off South Shore Boulevard. We replace the glass unit and re-seal the sash, restoring the window’s full impact rating.
We service all major impact glazing systems, so the replacement matches the original manufacturer’s specs. When you call, we’ll ask for the window label if you can find it; if you can’t, we’ll identify the unit on site and source the correct glass. Both warranty layers get registered in writing for the new unit as well.
Impact Window Repair
Impact windows are built to take a hit, but the hardware around them lives in a hot, humid, salt-adjacent climate and it wears out. Rollers, locks, and balance systems fail on a schedule that Florida accelerates. We repair impact windows in Wellington with OEM or manufacturer-spec parts, and if the window needs adjustment rather than parts, we do that too.
Call before the storm watch, not during it. A window that won’t lock or a roller that grinds in its track is a fix we can often handle in a single visit. A window that has already failed during a storm is an emergency, and you’ll still reach a live person at (561) 349-4826.
Impact Window Tune-Up
In Wellington, a window tune-up every year makes sense the same way a roof inspection does. our maintenance check covers tightening hardware, lubricating tracks, adjusting the alignment, and checking the seals on every impact window in the home. We also check the caulking and weather-stripping so the March rains don’t find a way in.
Most tune-ups take under two hours for an average Wellington home. You’ll get a plain-language list of anything that looks like it needs attention, with pricing in writing, and no pressure to authorize the work on the spot. It’s the same way we have treated our neighbors since 2008.

Brands We Service for Impact Windows
We are an authorized installer for PGT impact windows, and we have watched their product lines evolve for the better part of two decades. A lot of Wellington homeowners choose PGT because the headquarters is right here in Florida and the warranty is strong when it is registered correctly, which is exactly the part most people miss. We know PGT’s vinyl and aluminum impact lines well enough to tell you which one suits a second-story west-facing wall better, because we have installed both in this specific climate for years.
We also work extensively with CGI and have serviced hundreds of their units in the gated communities out toward Lake Worth Road. When a pump-up window from a different manufacturer cannot hold its rating after a repair, we often recommend CGI as the replacement because we know the frames and the hardware, and we know where they hold up under South Florida conditions. If you have Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, or any other make installed, we will service it and quote it the same way: measured twice, priced once. Whether you have a PGT, a CGI, or something from a line we rarely see, we can help.
Signs You Need Impact Windows Right Now
- Your current windows are single-pane or builder-grade. A standard aluminum single-pane window is no match for a Category 1 storm, let alone the stronger systems Wellington has seen in recent seasons. If you can press your hand against the glass and feel the afternoon heat radiating through, that window is doing almost nothing for your safety or your electric bill.
- You hear wind whistling through the frames. Air moving through a closed window means the weather-stripping or the frame itself has failed. That gap is also how driving rain gets behind the wall, and once water is inside the wall cavity, mold follows. Impact windows seal tight by design, and the installation standard matters as much as the glass.
- The glass is fogged between the panes. A double-pane window with condensation trapped inside has a broken seal. The insulating gas is gone, the glass is working at half strength, and if it is an impact window, the structural rating is compromised. Seal failure is a documented precursor to glass failure under load.
- The windows are difficult to open or lock. If you have to shoulder the sash to open it, the window is out of square, the frame has shifted, or the hardware is tired. A window that binds in July is a window that will not close properly when you need it to. In Wellington, that need arrives every hurricane season.
- Your home was built before the 2001 Florida Building Code. Pre-2001 construction in Wellington was generally not required to meet the current impact standards. Those older windows were sized, framed, and set for a different set of assumptions. If your house predates the code change, the windows are the weakest structural point, and replacing them is the single most effective upgrade you can make.
Our Impact Windows Process - Step by Step
- 1
Measure and inspect, twice. Every opening gets measured with a laser and a tape, because the two methods catch different kinds of errors. We inspect the framing behind the trim for rot, termites, and settlement before we quote anything. You cannot price a window job you have not seen, and we do not quote over the phone.
- 2
Written, side-by-side quote. We bring manufacturer data sheets and pricing to your kitchen table. You see the brands, the glass packages, the warranty durations, and the labor line, all on paper. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before any money changes hands, and we explain what each layer covers in plain English.
- 3
Installation day, on time. Our crew arrives in uniform, background-checked, and prepared for the specific openings we quoted. We protect your floors and furnishings, remove the old units carefully, correct any framing issues we find, and set each new impact window true and square. The crew works the way they would in their own mother’s home.
- 4
Seal, flash, and button up. The difference between an impact window that lasts 20 years and one that rots out its own frame is the flashing and sealing around the opening. We flash every opening so water runs away from the structure, then seal and trim to match the existing profile. The job gets cleaned up the same day, including the old windows hauled away.
- 5
Walkthrough and warranty registration. Before we leave, we walk the job with you, demonstrate each window, and confirm both warranty layers are registered in writing with the manufacturer. The Done Right Promise means that if anything isn’t right, we come back and make it right, no paperwork and no argument.
How Much Does Impact Windows Cost in Wellington?
Impact window costs in Wellington depend on the size of the opening, the manufacturer, the frame material, and the condition of the existing structure. A standard replacement for a single-bedroom impact window in Wellington typically runs $900 to $1,800 installed, while a full-home replacement on a 2,000-square-foot house with ten to twelve openings usually lands between $14,000 and $28,000. A large custom impact window with a picture-glass center and high-end frame material can exceed $3,500 on its own. If the opening has rotted framing or needs structural correction, that cost is separate and will be shown in your written quote before work starts.
What moves the price most is the glass package and the frame. Laminated impact glass from PGT or CGI costs more than standard laminated glass from a smaller line, but the warranty and the track record in Palm Beach County are part of what you’re paying for. Aluminum frames run less than vinyl or wood composite, but aluminum conducts heat, and in Wellington, that shows up in your electric bill every August. We’ll show you the tradeoffs on paper and let you decide with your own priorities in mind.
The best way to avoid overpaying is to get a written, line-item quote and compare it against another written, line-item quote. A number spoken over the phone is not a price, it’s a guess. Our estimates are free, they take about an hour on site, and they come with no obligation and no follow-up pressure. You’ll also want to confirm that the quote includes warranty registration, permitting if required, and haul-away, because those items are where the low bids get you later.

They also provide a security benefit and reduce outside noise from the roads and neighboring properties.
