AfterFast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Wellington
Window replacement in Wellington usually means one of two things: fixing original aluminum single-panes in a 1980s CBS tract home, or upgrading wide custom openings on an equestrian estate. Either way, the job has to meet Palm Beach County’s 140-150 mph design wind speed code, and that changes what gets installed. We’ve been doing this work long enough to know which Wellington subdivisions need full-frame tear-outs and which can take inserts cleanly. Call (561) 264-1279 and we’ll walk you through it honestly.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Wellington’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
We’re not the cheapest window bid in Wellington. We’re the company people call when the first one didn’t hold up. TruePane was founded by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier, on a rule that’s still on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Our Wellington crews are background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice because the older CBS homes here have settled enough that nominal sizes don’t always match what’s in the wall.
Every window we install in Wellington carries The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. And the Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right, we fix it. No paperwork fight. No arguing.
Our Window Replacement team works in Wellington year-round. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form. You call, a human picks up, and we schedule a real appointment.
Our Window Replacement Services in Wellington
Full Frame Replacement
Most houses in Wellington built before 2002 have original aluminum frames that are 30 to 40 years old. The aluminum corrodes at the jamb, the flashing tape is dried out, and humid Florida air moves through the wall cavity around the sash. A full frame replacement removes everything down to the rough opening, lets us inspect the CBS block for cracks, and installs a properly flashed unit that passes Palm Beach County’s wind-load review. For tract homes off Greenview Shores Boulevard, Forest Hill Boulevard, and South Shore Boulevard, this is the only way to fix seal failures permanently. A typical full frame replacement in Wellington runs $900-$1,800 per opening, depending on glass package and trim work.
Insert Window Replacement
If the original frame is still square and the rough opening is sound, an insert replacement drops a new energy-rated sash into the existing frame. It’s less disruptive, costs less, and can be done in a single visit. But we won’t recommend inserts in Wellington if the frame shows pitting at the corners or the stucco has cracked around the opening, because that means water has been getting behind the fin. Inserts here typically run $500-$1,000 per window installed.
Storm Window Replacement
Storm windows are not a substitute for impact-rated units in Wellington. Palm Beach County enforces design wind speeds of 140-150 mph, which means every installed unit must carry Florida Product Approval. We install impact-rated storm windows that meet that code, with low-E coatings for the inland heat. Homeowners in the equestrian estate tier around the International Polo Club often pair storm windows with Sliding & Patio Doors - Wellington for trailer access and climate-controlled tack rooms. Expect $700-$1,400 per storm window, more for custom widths.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Wellington sits several miles inland from the Atlantic, so salt-spray corrosion is less aggressive than in Boca Raton or coastal Palm Beach. But the inland radiant heat is intense. A low-E, argon-filled insulated glass unit cuts a meaningful amount of cooling load in a CBS tract home, and that matters when your A/C runs nine months a year. We recently replaced 14 aluminum single-pane double-hungs in a 1988 CBS home off Greenview Shores Boulevard. Every original sash had seal failure and the flashing tape had turned to dust. The owners left for their summer season and came back to lower runtime and no more fog between panes. Energy-Efficient Windows in Wellington run $550-$1,100 per window depending on glass package.

Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- Corroded aluminum frames at the jamb: In 1980s-1990s CBS tract homes, the original aluminum frames pit and corrode where the sash meets the track. Humid air bypasses the sash, causing condensation and black mold on interior drywall. A full frame replacement fixes this permanently.
- Fogged insulated glass on non-impact units: Owners in Wellington often ask us to replace just the glass because the pane is intact but fogged. The seal has failed. On a code-compliant job, you can’t drop new glass into a frame that doesn’t meet Florida Product Approval. Sometimes we can replace the sash; often the whole unit needs to go.
- Equestrian estate openings ordered in standard sizes: Tack room windows and wide garage door glazing on Wellington’s horse properties are frequently ordered to the nearest standard dimension to save cost. The sash splays, the seal fails within two seasons, and the whole opening has to be redone. Custom sizing costs more up front and lasts.
- Impact glass with no proper flashing on older CBS walls: Installing impact-laminate glass into a rough opening without a correctly flashed full-frame replacement traps water behind the fin. The rough opening rots from the inside. We see this on homes where a previous contractor cut corners. The fix is a full tear-out and proper re-flash.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Wellington
Yes, in most cases you do. Palm Beach County requires a permit for window replacement when the unit changes, especially when it involves impact-rated glass that must meet Florida Product Approval. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and make sure the job passes before we call it done. Call (561) 264-1279 and we’ll tell you exactly what applies to your house.
Because your original aluminum frames almost certainly fail Palm Beach County’s post-Hurricane Andrew wind-load requirements. The frame itself is part of the structural assembly. You can’t put code-compliant impact glass into a frame that was never tested or approved for it. And the corrosion at the jamb means the seal will fail again. Replacement means replacing the unit, not the pane. Call (561) 264-1279 for an honest assessment of what your frames can and can’t do.
Wellington is several miles inland, so you get less salt-spray pitting on aluminum frames than homes right on the coast. But you still get high humidity, intense radiant heat, and the same 140-150 mph design wind speed. The failure mode here is less about salt and more about thermal cycling and humidity driving condensation into the wall cavity. The fix standards are identical from a code standpoint.
No, the fog means the insulated glass seal has failed. There is no field repair for a failed seal. The glass unit has to be replaced. And if the frame is original aluminum, replacing the glass alone won’t meet code. We’ll tell you the truth on that. Call (561) 264-1279 and we’ll explain exactly what you’re looking at.
May through September is the off-season for the equestrian crowd, and that’s when we have the most scheduling flexibility. Snowbird residents who wait until October find the backlog is full and they’re stuck with failing windows through another humid summer. If you know you’re going to replace, plan it for late spring. Call (561) 264-1279 now and get on the calendar before the fall rush.
