AfterSingle & Double Hung Windows in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Single and double hung window replacement in Palm Beach Gardens typically ranges from $650 to $1,400 per opening, depending on impact-resistance ratings, frame material, and the condition of the existing rough opening. At TruePane Windows & Doors, we provide honest assessments and precise installations for homeowners who need a window that functions correctly and complies with local Florida building codes. Whether you are dealing with a sash that no longer stays open or you are looking to upgrade to impact-resistant glass, our team ensures the job is done right the first time. We invite you to call (772) 794-8169 to discuss your project or to schedule a free estimate.
When you live in Palm Beach Gardens, your windows face more than just the daily sun. The humidity, salt air, and potential for tropical storms require a specific approach to window installation. We see many homes in local neighborhoods like BallenIsles, Mirasol, and PGA National where original aluminum frames have corroded or the balance systems in hung windows have failed due to years of salt exposure. Replacing these with modern, energy-efficient single or double hung windows is one of the most effective ways to stabilize your indoor comfort and protect your home.
As a company rooted in years of community service, we operate differently than national franchises. We do not use high-pressure sales tactics. We show up, we measure, we explain the manufacturer options side-by-side on paper, and we register your warranty before we leave. If you are researching Window Installation in Palm Beach Gardens, you likely want a solution that lasts, not a quick fix that needs attention again in three years. That is why we stand by our Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
When You Need Single & Double Hung Replacement
Recognizing when it is time to replace your windows is a matter of observing how they perform during your daily routine. We often hear from homeowners in Palm Beach Gardens who have lived with failing windows for years, assuming that drafts or sticky sashes are just part of homeownership. They are not. Here are the common signs that your single or double hung windows have reached the end of their service life:
- The sash will not stay open: If you have to prop your window open with a stick or a book, the balance system, which is the internal spring or coil mechanism, has failed. This is a common issue in older homes where the constant heat causes these internal components to degrade.
- Persistent fogging between panes: This indicates that the seal on your insulated glass unit has broken. In our humid Florida climate, this allows moisture to seep inside, which will eventually lead to mold growth and total loss of visibility.
- Difficulty operating the window: If you have to fight the window to get it to slide, the frame may have shifted or the tracks may be damaged. This often happens as houses settle, but it can also be a sign of frame rot or corrosion in older aluminum windows.
- High energy bills: If you notice your air conditioning running constantly during the summer months, your windows may be leaking cool air. A properly installed, modern window creates a tight barrier that significantly reduces the load on your HVAC system.
- Visible damage or corrosion: Salt air is aggressive. If you see pitting, flaking, or actual holes in your window frames, the structural integrity of the unit is compromised.
- Lack of impact protection: Many older homes in Palm Beach Gardens were built before current impact codes were strictly enforced. Upgrading to impact-rated glass provides a necessary layer of security and can often lower your homeowners insurance premiums.
If you see these signs, it is time to have a professional look at the openings. Please call (772) 794-8169, and we will send a technician to inspect your windows. We do not use voicemail trees, so you will always speak to a person who understands the local building landscape.
Our Single & Double Hung Installation Process
TruePane Windows & Doors follows a rigorous process for every installation. We treat your home as if it were our own, and we follow a strict protocol designed to ensure the window is square, plumb, and level. This is the foundation of our craft.
- Detailed Measurement and Assessment: We do not rely on rough estimates. Our uniformed technicians measure every opening twice. We check the condition of the sub-sill and the surrounding structure to ensure there is no hidden water damage or rot that needs to be addressed before the new window is set.
- Preparation of the Opening: We carefully remove the old window, taking care not to damage the surrounding drywall, stucco, or interior trim. We clean the rough opening down to the substrate, removing old caulk, debris, and failing materials to ensure a clean surface for the new installation.
- Installation and Leveling: We set the new window into the opening using shims to ensure it is perfectly square. A window that is slightly out of square will bind, leak, or fail prematurely. We verify the operation of the sashes before we secure the frame, ensuring that the tilt-in feature of your new double hung windows operates smoothly.
- Sealing and Insulation: We use high-quality, professional-grade sealants that are rated for the Florida climate. Proper flashing and sealing are the most important steps to prevent water intrusion. We ensure every gap is filled, creating an airtight and watertight seal.
- Warranty Registration and Cleanup: Once the window is installed and the trim is replaced, we clean the work area thoroughly. Before we leave, we register both manufacturer warranty layers as part of The Keystone Standard. You will have all your documentation in hand, so there is no paperwork for you to track down later.
A note on safety: removing old windows, especially those with heavy glass or those located on the second floor, involves significant risk. The glass can shatter, and the frames can be heavy and awkward to maneuver. Please do not attempt this yourself. Our team is trained to handle these components safely, using the proper equipment to protect you and your home.
Single & Double Hung Pricing in Palm Beach Gardens
We believe in upfront pricing. You deserve to know what you are paying for before the work begins. The cost of replacing your windows involves several factors, including the size of the opening, the type of glass (impact-resistant vs. standard), the frame material (vinyl, aluminum, or composite), and the specific manufacturer line you choose.
We offer side-by-side quotes on paper for brands like Jeld-Wen, PGT, and others so you can see exactly how the pricing breaks down. We do not hide costs in confusing line items.

FAQs - Single & Double Hung
What is the difference between single and double hung windows?
A single hung window has a fixed top sash and a bottom sash that moves up and down. A double hung window allows both the top and bottom sashes to move, which provides better ventilation and makes the exterior glass easier to clean from inside your home. In Palm Beach Gardens, many homeowners choose double hung for the convenience of cleaning, especially for second-story windows. If you are unsure which style fits your home, call (772) 794-8169 for a consultation.
Is it cheaper to repair a window or replace it?
If the issue is minor, such as a broken latch or a simple screen repair, it is often cheaper to fix it. However, if the balance system has failed, the seal on the glass is broken, or the frame is corroded, replacement is almost always the better long-term investment. Repairing a failing frame or an obsolete balance system often costs nearly as much as a new window, but without the benefit of a new warranty or improved energy efficiency. We will always be honest with you about whether a repair is viable or if it is just delaying the inevitable. Call us for an honest assessment.
Can you match the windows I already have in my home?
We work with more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Jeld-Wen, PGT, and others, which allows us to find a close match for your existing window style and color. Our goal is to ensure the new windows integrate with your home’s aesthetic while providing the modern performance you need.
