Jupiter homeowners face a specific problem: salt-laden air off the Jupiter Inlet and Loxahatchee River eats aluminum window frames and door thresholds faster than almost anywhere else in Palm Beach County. Add Palm Beach County’s post-Hurricane Andrew wind-mitigation codes, and most window and door replacement work here isn’t optional upgrading. It’s code-driven, insurance-driven, and corrosion-driven. Winslow Windows & Doors handles all three. Call (561) 660-9539 and you’ll get a live person who knows Jupiter’s housing stock, its wind zones, and what your insurance adjuster expects to see.
We’re the locally owned alternative to faceless national chains. Ed Winslow’s name is on the door – and on every job we do. When you call about impact windows or a failing sliding glass door in Jupiter, you’re calling the owner’s company, not a ticket number. We answer 24/7 because storms don’t wait for business hours, and neither should you.

Why Jupiter Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
We’ve worked on pre-code CBS homes in Tequesta Oaks and along Center Street, and we’ve handled whole-home impact replacements in Abacoa where original builder-spec windows hit their 20-year failure threshold all at once. That neighborhood-level replacement cycle – dozens of homes, same era, same failing non-impact glass – is something you learn only by working Jupiter, not by dispatching crews from a remote call center.
Our reputation on the ground comes from specifics. Every technician who arrives at your Jupiter home is background-checked and in uniform. Every estimate is a written line-item price. Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and still runs it personally. Our published address and license number are on our home page, not hidden behind a PO box. And the Done Right Promise means if it’s not done right, we make it right – period. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job.
We answer the phone 24/7 with a live person. Not a voicemail loop, not a call center. When a storm rolls through Jupiter and your door won’t seal, someone picks up.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Jupiter
Impact Windows
Jupiter sits directly at the Jupiter Inlet, and Palm Beach County’s coastal wind zones demand impact-rated glazing on most replacement work. We install laminated impact glass from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, each configuration carrying Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA where your specific opening requires it. Design pressures are matched to each opening – never a rating above +/-100 unless the structural math calls for it.

Window Installation
Whether you’re in a 1970s CBS home near the river or a newer Abacoa build, proper installation is what makes the product perform. We set windows to Palm Beach County wind-mitigation standards, with flashing and anchoring that survive both hurricanes and salt air. No subcontracted crews, no shortcuts.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Jupiter.
Window Replacement
Single-pane aluminum windows from the pre-code era are the most common failure we replace in Jupiter, especially within a mile of the inlet where corrosion accelerates. We pull the old frames, inspect the rough openings, and install impact-rated replacements that your insurance adjuster will actually pass. Whole-home replacements in older Jupiter neighborhoods are our bread and butter.

Door Installation
Entry doors in Jupiter take a beating from salt, sun, and storm pressure. We install fiberglass and steel doors, including Therma-Tru models, with proper threshold sealing and flashings that hold up to the inlet’s corrosion environment. Your front door should open and close without a fight.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Jupiter’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle means sliding glass doors get heavy daily use – and salt air gets into the tracks. We replace worn rollers, realign frames, and install impact-rated sliders when it’s time. A patio door that won’t lock is a security problem and a wind-mitigation failure waiting to happen.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Between Jupiter’s summer heat and your air conditioning’s workload, low-E impact glass cuts cooling demand realistically by 20-30%. That’s not a wishful number, that’s what the solar heat gain coefficient math supports in our climate zone. You’ll feel the difference in rooms facing west.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the largest opening in your home’s wind envelope, and Jupiter’s coastal wind zone treats it as a critical component. We install impact-rated garage doors that meet Palm Beach County’s pressure requirements. If your garage door predates the 2002 code changes, it’s likely your insurance inspector’s first flag.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Jupiter’s newer custom homes and a few older riverfront builds use unique window shapes – arches, trapezoids, circles. We order and install custom and geometric impact windows to spec, including from other authorized brands. Odd shapes don’t scare us; they just take a little longer to fabricate.
Roof Repair
Windows and doors are only as good as the roof above them. We repair roof leaks, damaged flashing, and storm damage across Jupiter’s neighborhoods. A leaking roof at the eave line will eventually destroy the window framing below it.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Full roof replacement in Jupiter comes with the same wind-mitigation scrutiny as your windows. We handle shingle, tile, and metal roofing, matched to Palm Beach County’s high-wind fastening schedules. Your insurance company cares about the roof-to-wall connection as much as the glass.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Jupiter’s housing stock spans barrel-tile Mediterranean homes, shingle roofs on older CBS builds, and standing-seam metal on newer coastal properties. We install all three, with wind-mitigation fastening that passes insurer inspection. The right roof over impact windows is a complete wind envelope.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Jupiter
Our crews know Jupiter’s neighborhoods by their failure patterns, not just their street names. Typical response time for estimates in Jupiter is same-week, and many repair calls are handled within a day or two depending on parts availability.
- Abacoa – master-planned, built 1999-2005, currently in a neighborhood-wide replacement cycle
- Tequesta Oaks – pre-code CBS homes with original aluminum windows
- Jupiter Inlet Colony – salt-heavy coastal environment demanding marine-grade hardware
- Pennock Point – river-facing properties with corrosion and flood-zone considerations
- Maplewood – older homes where original sliders and thresholds are failing
Why Jupiter’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Jupiter isn’t just hot and humid. It sits where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Loxahatchee River at the Jupiter Inlet, and that geography funnels salt-laden air inland along multiple waterways simultaneously. Aluminum window frames and door thresholds within a mile of the inlet corrode visibly within 15 years. Homes closer to the river, around Pennock Point and along Center Street, see pitting and white oxidation on frames that would look fine in landlocked cities fifteen miles inland.
The housing stock makes this worse. Jupiter’s older residential sections near the inlet and river corridors are largely pre-code CBS homes from the 1970s and early 1980s, most still carrying original single-pane aluminum windows that predate Florida’s post-2002 impact glazing standards. Those windows were code-legal when installed. They are not code-compliant now, and Palm Beach County insurers are increasingly demanding wind-mitigation inspection reports before renewing policies. The practical result: many Jupiter homeowners discover their window and door specs during an insurance renewal, not a remodeling conversation.
Then there’s the 2004 hurricane season. Jupiter took direct hits from both Frances and Jeanne within three weeks. Homes that survived that season got a graphic education in wind-loading, and the insurance market has never looked back. Today, coastal Jupiter’s design wind speeds make impact-rated glazing the default on almost every replacement job. That’s not optional. That’s the code.
Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters: The Jupiter Reality
Jupiter homeowners often ask whether they can just keep their existing windows and add shutters. You can. But think through what a hurricane actually demands. Shutters require you to be home, have the panels accessible, and physically install them before the storm – in the dark, in the wind, with adrenaline running. Impact windows are always on. They’re laminated glass tested to withstand windborne debris, permanently installed, and they’re protecting your home the moment the storm hits, whether you’re in Jupiter or evacuated. They also don’t require storage space, don’t rust in your garage, and don’t take forty minutes per window to deploy. For coastal Jupiter, impact windows are the structural answer; shutters are a backup plan. And insurers credit impact windows more reliably in the wind-mitigation inspection.
Florida Pays Jupiter Homeowners Back
The incentives stack if you plan the work properly. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax, which is real money on a whole-home replacement. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying energy-efficient units, up to $600 per year. And after a certified wind-mitigation inspection – which runs $75 to $150 – most insurers apply a premium credit averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy. We can’t guarantee program approval or the exact credit your carrier applies, but we can point you to the paperwork and make sure the installation qualifies. Call (561) 660-9539 and we’ll walk you through what applies to your Jupiter home.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Jupiter
Honest pricing in Jupiter runs roughly like this. Impact window replacement on a standard single-family home typically starts around $900-$1,400 per opening for mid-grade PGT models, installed. High-end CGI or custom configurations run higher. Entry door replacement runs $1,800-$4,500 depending on materials and impact rating. Sliding glass doors land between $2,500 and $6,000. Impact garage doors typically fall between $2,800 and $6,500. These are working ranges for Jupiter’s market, not quotes.
| Project | Typical Range (Installed) |
|---|---|
| Impact window, standard size | $900 – $1,400 per opening |
| Entry door replacement | $1,800 – $4,500 |
| Sliding glass door, impact-rated | $2,500 – $6,000 |
| Impact garage door | $2,800 – $6,500 |
| Whole-home impact replacement (10-15 openings) | $12,000 – $22,000+ |
Every job gets a written line-item quote. The price on the quote is the price on the invoice. No change orders unless you change the scope. And remember the standing offers: $40 off any repair over $200, free second opinions on any written estimate, no trip charge anywhere in our home county, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans.
Custom fabrication for non-standard sizes – and Jupiter has plenty of those near the river – runs 4 to 6 weeks. Once your units arrive, most installations are done as fast as a single day.
Neighborhood-Level Failure Patterns We See in Jupiter
Contractors working Abacoa repeatedly see the same thing: original builder-spec aluminum-framed windows with standard float glass that were perfectly code-legal when the homes were built between 1999 and 2005. Now those windows are hitting their 20-year failure threshold en masse, and insurance adjusters are flagging them during policy renewals. That’s forcing whole-home impact replacements all at once, street by street. It’s a concentrated neighborhood-level replacement cycle that doesn’t appear at the same scale in Palm Beach Gardens or Tequesta. If you own an Abacoa home with original windows, you’re probably on the list. The good news: we’ve done dozens of these, and we know exactly what the insurance inspection requires before we even start.
Down along the inlet and river corridors, the story is different. Homes in Jupiter Inlet Colony and along Loxahatchee River Road face the most aggressive salt corrosion in northern Palm Beach County. We regularly replace door thresholds that have crumbled from oxidation, sliding glass tracks that bind from salt and sand, and window frames with pitting so deep the glass seal is compromised. Marine-grade hardware matters here. Standard hardware stores don’t sell it. We specify it.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Jupiter
For a standard opening in Jupiter, impact window replacement typically runs $900 to $1,400 installed, depending on brand, size, and structural requirements. Whole-home projects with 10 to 15 openings generally fall between $12,000 and $22,000+. Every job gets a written line-item quote before work starts. Call (561) 660-9539 for an exact price on your home – estimates are free.
No. The price on your written quote is the price you pay, unless you change the scope. We don’t do change orders, vague allowances, or after-the-fact surprises. Ed Winslow’s name is on the work, and that means the number holds. If something unexpected comes up during installation, we tell you before it affects the bill – and you approve it in writing.
Increasingly, yes. Palm Beach County insurers operating in coastal Jupiter are demanding wind-mitigation inspection reports before renewing policies, and non-impact windows from the pre-code era are a common reason for non-renewal or heavy surcharges. Impact-rated windows and doors from PGT, CGI, or other Florida Product Approved manufacturers are the most reliable path to a passing inspection. We’ll install to the spec your carrier wants to see.
Custom fabrication for non-standard Jupiter homes runs 4 to 6 weeks from order to delivery. Once your units arrive, most standard replacement jobs are installed as fast as a single day. Whole-home replacements typically take 2 to 3 working days depending on the number of openings and any framing repairs needed. We’ll give you a schedule in writing with your quote.
Yes. Palm Beach County requires permits for window and door replacement when the openings are being altered or when impact-rated products are being installed to meet wind-mitigation code. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and make sure the job passes before we call it done. That’s part of the written quote, not an add-on you discover later. Call (561) 660-9539 if you want to know exactly what your Jupiter project requires.

What Jupiter Customers Say
"Someone tried the back slider while we were away. The glass crazed and held, the alarm never had to earn its keep, and the police report reads better than it might have. Ed came out the next morning to check the frame himself."
- Cornelius Adeyemi"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"He replaced the front door and the garage door in the same week, both rated for impact, and lined the frames up so straight my level had nothing to say. My wife stopped hearing the highway from the front room."
- Maximilian Vasquez
