Get your free estimateFast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Lantana
Window replacement in Lantana usually runs between $850 and $2,400 per opening depending on whether you need a standard insert replacement or a full-frame tear-out with impact glass. Most Lantana homeowners we work with are dealing with corroded aluminum frames, failed seals, or original jalousie windows that don’t close tight anymore. If you’re anywhere near Lantana Road, Hypoluxo Island, or the neighborhoods along the Intracoastal, we can have a technician at your door quickly, and you’ll always get a written price before any work starts. Call Keith Yamada’s team at (728) 203-1160 for a free estimate.

What makes window work different here is the salt air. It eats aluminum frames from the outside in, pits the metal, seizes the jambs, and turns what should be a simple sash replacement into a full-frame job. We’ve built our entire Lantana service around that reality. Our Window Replacement team specifies marine-grade hardware and sealed frames so you don’t pay for the same opening twice.
Why Lightwell Windows West Palm Beach Is Lantana’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
Lantana homeowners call us because we know what their houses are made of and how the local climate works against those materials. The concrete block homes built here between the 1950s and 1980s have non-standard window openings, often 31 or 47 inches wide. A crew that only knows tract-home rough openings will shim incorrectly or push you into a rip-and-rebuild you don’t need. We measure every opening before we quote, and we quote in writing.
Our techs arrive in uniform, background-checked, and they follow the C.A.R.E. values on every visit: Clean up like it’s our own home, Ask before we move anything, Respect your family’s time and quiet hours, and Explain the price before the work. Shoe covers and drop cloths go down before tools come out. If you have kids napping or a nervous dog, we work around it. That’s the Cedarwell Care Promise, and it’s been how we operate since 2010.
Keith Yamada leads the team here. He answers the phone, walks the job when needed, and stands behind the 365-Day Done Right Promise on every install. If something isn’t right after we leave, we come back and make it right. No debate, no countdown. That promise is stamped on every Lantana job we do.
As the local Window Replacement in Lantana crew, we carry eight manufacturer brands, including PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru. The recommendation you get fits your house and the salt air exposure, not whatever brand we’re trying to move that month.
Styles & brands we work with










Window Repair in Lantana
Window Repair in Lantana typically means addressing what salt air and humidity have already done to an existing frame: seized aluminum jambs, rusted hardware, failed seals, or glass that rattles loose in its channel. In a 1960s block house near the Intracoastal, the original frames may be too far gone to salvage, but in many cases a sash replacement, new weatherstripping, and marine-grade hardware extend the window’s life for years. Expect to pay between $180 and $650 per window for common Lantana repairs, depending on whether we’re rebuilding the sash, replacing hardware, or re-sealing the jamb against wind-driven rain.
Corroded Jalousie and Aluminum Frames
Original jalousie windows from Lantana’s building boom era are prone to pitting and seizing at the jambs. The salt air accelerates corrosion, and within a decade the crank mechanism can bind so badly the window won’t operate. We inspect each jamb carefully before recommending repair versus replacement. Sometimes a good cleaning and new stainless hardware fixes it. Sometimes the frame is too far gone and patching it would cost more than a new insert.
Seal and Gasket Failure
Dried-out neoprene gaskets and failed glazing seals let wind-driven rain into the sill during Lantana’s summer thunderstorms. That water finds its way into drywall and invites mold. Our repair work includes pulling the old gasket, cleaning the channel, and re-sealing with UV-resistant, marine-grade caulk. We check the weep holes too, because a blocked weep hole will flood the sill even with a new seal. Most repairs like this run $180 to $400 per window in Lantana.
Window Replacement Company in Lantana
As a Window Replacement Company serving Lantana, we do far more full-frame tear-outs here than in neighboring towns because the original 1960s aluminum frames are often unsalvageable. A full-frame replacement in Lantana runs $1,200 to $2,400 per opening with impact-rated glass, and an insert replacement into a sound existing frame runs $850 to $1,600. The wide range reflects whether we’re dealing with a standard opening in a newer stucco townhome or a custom-width jalousie opening in an older block house that needs fabrication and shimming.

Impact-Rated Replacements for Coastal Exposure
Many Lantana homeowners choose impact-rated windows not just for storm protection but because the laminated glass blocks far more outside noise and UV than single-pane. For homes east of Dixie Highway or near the Intracoastal, we strongly recommend Miami-Dade NOA-rated products. The cost difference between a Florida Product Approval window and a Miami-Dade NOA window is typically $250 to $500 per opening in Lantana, and it’s worth every dollar when a hurricane warning goes up.
Custom Sizes for Lantana’s 1950s-70s Block Homes
The older block houses around Lantana Road and the Hypoluxo Island area rarely have standard window openings. We frequently see 31-inch and 47-inch widths where modern manufacturers only stock 36 and 48. That means custom fabrication or creative shimming, and it means you want a team that has measured these houses before. We have. We know which openings on a 1962 block house can take a stock insert and which ones need a custom frame, and we put that in the written estimate so there’s no surprise at install.
Trusted Brands We Service in Lantana
We work with eight manufacturer brands so the glass, frame, and hardware match your home’s exposure instead of fighting it. For Lantana, three brands come up most often. PGT WinGuard impact-rated windows dominate coastal replacements because they meet Miami-Dade NOA and handle salt exposure well. Therma-Tru doors are our go-to for our Door Installation in Lantana on entryways that take constant humidity and occasional storm surge. And Mr-Glass handles specialty glazing and custom cut glass for older openings where nothing stock fits. We keep common parts for these brands in local inventory, which means faster turnaround for Lantana repairs and less waiting on a truck from out of state.

AfterCommon Window Replacement Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Seized aluminum jamb frames. The original 1960s jalousie frames pit and seize within a decade of salt air exposure. Once the jamb is seized, the sash won’t close, and the safest fix is often a full-frame replacement rather than forcing corroded hardware.
- Rusted hollow-core door hinges. Many Lantana homes still have hollow-core doors with standard steel hinges. The bottom hinge rusts through after a few summers near the Intracoastal, and the door starts sagging and rubbing against the threshold. We replace with stainless or marine-grade hinges and a solid-core or Therma-Tru door where needed.
- Leaking single-pane glazing. Dried-out neoprene gaskets and old single-pane glazing let wind-driven rain into the sill during summer thunderstorms. That leads to swollen drywall and mold in the sills. A re-seal repair helps short-term, but for east-facing and Intracoastal homes, we usually recommend impact-rated replacement glazing.
- Non-standard openings from piecemeal replacements. In older sections around Lantana Road, many jalousie windows were replaced one at a time over the years, leaving mismatched sizes and frames. That patchwork makes it harder to standardize, and custom fabrication or shimming becomes necessary. We measure every opening, and we tell you honestly which windows can take stock inserts and which cannot.
Pricing for Window Replacement in Lantana, FL
A typical window replacement in Lantana runs $850 to $2,400 per opening. Insert replacements into sound existing frames are the lower end, while full-frame tear-outs on corroded 1960s aluminum or custom-width jalousie openings hit the upper end. Impact-rated glass adds $250 to $500 per opening. You should also plan for the coastal-spec versus inland-spec gap: marine-grade hardware, stainless screws, hot-dip galvanized clips, and Miami-Dade NOA ratings add roughly 20 to 30 percent over a standard inland build. That upfront cost beats paying for a full tear-out in a decade when the inland-spec frame has failed. Call (728) 203-1160 and we’ll send you a written, line-item estimate so you know exactly what you’re paying before any work starts.

FAQs About Window Replacement in Lantana
For homes east of Dixie Highway or within a mile of the Intracoastal, Miami-Dade NOA matters because it certifies the entire window assembly, frame, glass, and anchoring, against wind-borne debris and pressure cycling, not just the glass by itself. Florida Product Approval covers less stringent testing. In Lantana’s older block homes, many original aluminum frames would fail a NOA test today, which is why full-frame replacement with NOA-rated products is common. If you’re inside the coastal wind zone, the NOA rating is the difference between a window that holds during a real storm and one that fails at the jamb. Call (728) 203-1160 and we’ll tell you exactly which rating your home requires, and put it in the written estimate.
Salt air accelerates corrosion on any steel or standard aluminum hardware, which is why we use 316 stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized fasteners on every coastal replacement in Lantana. Standard zinc-plated screws will rust out at the jamb within a few seasons, and the window will start to move in the opening. That’s the failure we see all the time on cheaper inland-spec replacements. We also specify marine-grade polyurethane caulk for sealing jambs. It costs more per tube, and it’s the reason our windows stay tight years after the install. For an exact spec on your home, call (728) 203-1160.
Plan on roughly 20 to 30 percent more for coastal-spec work in Lantana, so a $900 inland-spec replacement becomes $1,100 to $1,200 per opening with marine-grade hardware, NOA-rated glass, and sealed anchoring. The cheap spec looks fine on paper, and then the jambs rust out, the glass fogs, and you’re paying for the same window again in eight to ten years. That’s the information-gain point of this whole page: cheap inland-spec in Lantana becomes a full tear-out within a decade. Pay the coastal spec once. We’ll detail the line items in writing. Call (728) 203-1160 for a free estimate.
Yes, getting a wind mitigation inspection after replacing old jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows is one of the smartest financial moves a Lantana homeowner can make, because impact-rated windows and NOA-rated frames count as opening protection and can meaningfully lower your windstorm insurance premium. The inspector will want to see documentation of the Miami-Dade NOA or the Florida Product Approval for each window we installed. We provide that paperwork with every coastal replacement, and we’ll walk you through which sections of the inspection our work satisfies. If you’d like, we can recommend a local inspector we’ve worked with. Call (728) 203-1160 and ask about the documentation package that comes with your replacement.
Sometimes yes, and we’ll tell you honestly if a sash-only replacement makes sense for your Lantana home. If the original frame is square, the jamb is not corroded through, and the opening is a standard size, a new sash in the old frame can run $400 to $800 per window, less than a full tear-out. But many 1960s aluminum frames in Lantana have pitted or seized jambs, and once the jamb is compromised, a new sash won’t fix the problem. We replaced seven jalousie windows on a 1962 block house off Lantana Road near the Intracoastal with PGT WinGuard impact-rated double-hungs. The original aluminum frames had corroded so badly at the jambs that the sashes would not close, and salt air had eaten through the old single-pane glazing. Our crew used hot-dip galvanized anchoring clips and sealed every jamb with marine-grade polyurethane caulk to meet Miami-Dade NOA, and the homeowner immediately noticed a drop in wind whistle and a cooler front room. That’s the honest assessment you get from us: we’ll tell you when a sash replacement works and when it’s throwing money at a frame that’s already failed. Call (728) 203-1160 for a straight answer and a free, written estimate.
