Why Fountainebleau Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Homeowners in Fountainebleau have a long memory for contractors who cut corners. Plenty of the homes in this neighborhood still carry original 1960s and 1970s aluminum windows, and the people living in them know what a fogged seal looks like. What they want is a company that returns, answers the phone, and stands behind the work in writing. That is what we do. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule that still hangs on the shop whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
We work all through this neighborhood, from the streets around the Fountainebleau Park area up toward the Ronald Reagan Turnpike corridor, and down around the residential blocks near NW 107th Avenue. Customers in those neighborhoods tell us the same two things: the crew showed up when they said they would, and the workmanship held. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. The Done Right Promise is on every Fountainebleau job in writing, with no fine print that covers neither party. A local, live person answers every call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Fountainebleau
Window Installation
We set new windows into CBS block walls properly, using fastener patterns and buck framing built for concrete, not wood studs. An out-of-plumb window in a Fountainebleau home is a leak waiting for the next thunderstorm.

Door Installation
Entry doors, side doors, and custom openings all get measured twice before a single anchor is set. We make sure the door swings true, seals tight, and closes square every single time.

Window Replacement
Most Fountainebleau homes built between the 1960s and early 1980s still have original single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows, which hold zero hurricane resistance. We replace them with NOA-compliant units sized to your actual rough openings, not a catalog guess.

Impact Windows & Doors
Every impact window and door we install in Fountainebleau carries a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance, which is the only documentation that satisfies HVHZ code. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave the job site.
Energy-Efficient Windows
The sun and humidity in Fountainebleau work against single-pane glass all year. Upgraded low-E, double-pane units cut down heat gain and reduce the load on your air conditioner, and they do it without sacrificing hurricane protection.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding glass doors in this neighborhood take a beating from wind-driven rain, especially during the summer storm cycle. We set tracks level, re-align rollers, and replace weather-stripping so the door slides without binding, even in July humidity.
Glass Railing Systems
For patios, balconies, and pool areas, we install frameless and semi-frameless glass railing systems with anchors engineered for concrete. The glass is tempered, the hardware is marine-grade, and the fit is measured to the eighth of an inch.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd rough openings are common in Fountainebleau’s older CBS homes. We can build custom window and door units to fit those non-standard dimensions without forcing a stock size into an opening that was never made for it.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Fountainebleau
We work throughout Fountainebleau, and our crews know the local blocks well enough to plan for CBS construction, shallow jalousie rough openings, and afternoon storms. Typical response for estimates in the area is same-day or next-day, depending on the queue.

Why Fountainebleau’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Fountainebleau sits about eight miles inland from Biscayne Bay, with no coastal barrier to slow down hurricane-force wind. The entire neighborhood is inside the HVHZ, which is the most restrictive wind-load jurisdiction in the United States. Every window and door replacement here has to carry a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance, a standard that does not apply in neighboring Broward County, and that catches out-of-area contractors regularly.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most of Fountainebleau’s homes are concrete block and stucco, built during the Cuban-American immigration boom of the 1960s and 1970s. The original windows were aluminum jalousie or single-pane awning units, and many remain in place today. Those windows are too shallow and too narrow for modern impact-rated units, so a proper replacement usually means pouring a new concrete sill or building out the CBS buck before the window can even be set. A contractor who has not done this kind of framing in this neighborhood will fight the opening and lose. We do it as a matter of routine.
The climate is unforgiving on top of that. Salt-laden air carried inland during storm season corrodes non-impact aluminum frames faster than people expect. The humidity pushes insulated glass units into premature seal failure when they are not rated for the moisture load. And the daily afternoon thunderstorms drive wind-driven rain directly into gaps around aging jalousie and awning windows, which is why so many original openings in Fountainebleau show interior water staining on the drywall below. None of this is speculation. It is what we see on estimate calls here every week.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Fountainebleau
Yes. Fountainebleau sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and every window and door replacement must carry a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance to pass inspection. A product approved only for Broward County will not satisfy code here, and no legitimate inspector will sign off on it.
For a typical CBS home in Fountainebleau, replacing a window with a NOA-rated impact unit runs between $900 and $3,400 per opening, depending on the window’s size, the manufacturer, and whether the existing rough opening needs new concrete work. Seniors and veterans receive a permanent 5% discount, and we also offer a free written repair estimate. Call (386) 854-7948 for an exact quote; estimates are free and written on paper.
Jalousie glass slats were never designed to seal against wind-driven rain, and after fifty or sixty years the aluminum frames are worn, corroded, and gapped. In Fountainebleau’s afternoon storm cycle, water pushes directly through those gaps. The fix is replacement with a properly anchored impact unit, not a caulk bead.
No, not on a TruePane job. We write the quote after we measure, and we stand behind that number. The only time a price changes is if a hidden structural issue gets discovered once the old window is out, and we will tell you on the spot and show you what we found before any extra work is authorized.
Yes. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and make sure the job passes before we call it done. Permits and inspections are part of the work, not an optional line item. Call (386) 854-7948 to schedule a free estimate.

What Fountainebleau Customers Say
"Impact windows on the whole house. They handled the permit, the inspection, and gave me a folder with every approval number for the insurance company. My windstorm premium dropped enough to notice."
- Bill T."Had fog between the panes in four windows. They explained the seals had failed and argon was long gone, replaced the glass units instead of selling me whole windows. Honest outfit."
- Frank D."Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L.
