Impact Windows in Coconut Creek, FL

Coconut Creek is a planned community, and its rules shape impact window projects as much as its weather does. The city incorporated in 1967 after splitting from Pompano Beach, and it grew from about 6,300 people in 1980 to more than 57,000 today. Census estimates show nearly 56 percent of housing was built in the 1980s and 1990s, and the median build year is 1989. Housing is mostly single-family homes, condominiums and townhouses in landscaped communities.

Working inside association standards

In a planned city, most homes sit in communities with associations. Typical standards cover frame color, glass tint, grid patterns and front door style. Some communities have pre-approved product lists. We ask for your community's standard at the first visit and quote within it, so the approval request goes through without back-and-forth.

Homes from the 1980s and 1990s

Houses and townhomes from this period often have aluminum windows with plain glass, and some had shutters added later. By now many seals have failed and screens and tracks are worn. Impact windows replace those with laminated glass and new frames anchored to current approvals.

Front doors

Many owners pair windows with a new impact entry door. Because associations often regulate the look of the front of the house, we bring style options and help you pick one that fits the standard.

Light and heat

Coconut Creek was the first city in Florida certified as a Community Wildlife Habitat and is known as the Butterfly Capital of the World, home to Butterfly World. Owners like low-E impact glass because it cuts heat and fading without heavy tint.

Rain

The area averages about 57 inches of rain a year, with June the wettest month. New impact windows with proper sill flashing stop the water leaks that older windows develop during summer storms.

Impact sliding doors to the lanai

Homes and townhomes that open to a screened lanai usually do it through a slider. Screen cages do not stop debris, so the glass behind them still needs protection. An impact slider replaces the shutters or panels that would otherwise go across that opening.

Garage doors

Where a garage door is not wind rated, we suggest replacing it along with the windows, using a style your association allows.

Condo owners

In condo buildings, the association's documents decide who replaces windows and what is allowed. Some associations coordinate replacement for the whole building; others approve owners one at a time.

How to compare quotes

Ask every company for the product line, the approval number for each unit, the glass type and the design pressure for each opening. With that list, you can compare quotes on equal terms instead of on price alone.

Permits

Check with the city's building department for its current list. We prepare product approvals, an opening plan and a wind load chart. Call (954) 375-7681 to set up a visit.
