Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Lantana
Window replacement in Lantana usually costs between $600 and $1,800 per opening for a full-frame impact-rated unit, with most whole-home jobs on 1950s-1970s CBS houses landing between $12,000 and $28,000 before any structural surprises are uncovered. The salt air off Lake Worth Lagoon and the Atlantic eats aluminum frames faster here than almost anywhere else in Palm Beach County, which means Lantana homeowners are more likely to need full tear-outs than simple insert retrofits. We’ve been replacing windows in this town long enough to know what’s behind the stucco before we cut into it. Call (561) 708-6771 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Lantana’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
We’re not a franchise rolling through town with a sales script. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 after decades in the glass trade, and the rule he keeps on the whiteboard still governs every job we take in Lantana: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Our crews know the difference between a 1960s CBS rancher north of Ocean Avenue and a 1970s two-story east of US-1, because we’ve opened walls in both. That local knowledge matters when the rough opening hides something the original builder never intended anyone to see.
Lantana homeowners tend to call us after they’ve already been burned once: a fogged seal no one would stand behind, a door that binds in July, an impact window that leaked before the first hurricane season ended. We answer those calls with a live person, 24 hours a day. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. And we show up when we say, in uniform, background-checked, with a tape measure and paper quotes for manufacturer lines side by side so you can see exactly what you’re buying. Our workmanship carries a Done Right Promise, and under The Keystone Standard we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. Those aren’t marketing lines. They’re the reason people on Hypoluxo Island and in the neighborhoods off South Dixie Highway keep our number in the kitchen drawer.
Our Window Replacement Services in Lantana
Full Frame Replacement
Most homes in Lantana’s older blocks east of US-1 were built before Florida’s wind-borne debris code existed. The original aluminum frames in those CBS walls have spent 40 to 60 years absorbing salt spray from two directions, and many of them are corroded past the point where an insert could ever seal properly. Full-frame replacement removes the entire old window, frame and all, down to the rough opening. That’s the only way to address failed flashing tape, rotted wood bucks, and undersized headers in one pass. On a 1960s CBS home near Ocean Avenue, our crew pulled original jalousie windows and found exactly that: corroded frames, failed flashing, and wood deteriorating from decades of salt exposure. We rebuilt those openings with impact-rated double-hung units, fusion-welded frames, and stainless hardware, then brought everything up to current wind-load standards.
Insert Window Replacement
When the existing frame is square and structurally sound, an insert window fits a new energy-efficient unit inside the old frame without disturbing the stucco or interior trim. It’s less invasive and costs less. But in Lantana, our inspectors find fewer insert candidates than you’d expect a few miles inland in Boynton Beach or Golf. The salt air works on aluminum frames and sill pans long before the glass fails, and an insert into a corroded frame just seals the problem inside the wall. We’ll tell you honestly which approach your house actually needs, and we’ll quote both side by side on paper so the decision is yours.
Storm Window Replacement
Lantana sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, which means every replacement window must meet impact-resistance standards or pair with an approved shutter system. That’s not a preference; it’s Florida Building Code. Our storm window replacements are impact-rated units tested to withstand hurricane-force wind and the debris it carries. We install them with stainless hardware that won’t rust out in the bi-directional salt air this town gets from the Intracoastal Waterway on one side and the Atlantic on the other. For Lantana homeowners, a storm window isn’t an add-on. It’s the baseline.
Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Older single-pane aluminum windows in Lantana don’t just leak air; they transfer heat straight into a house that’s already fighting afternoon sun from the east and reflected glare off the lagoon to the west. Upgrading to low-E, double-pane, argon-filled glass cuts the load on your air conditioner and makes rooms noticeably quieter. We stock energy-efficient lines from PGT, Jeld-Wen, and Simonton, and we’ll walk you through the performance ratings on paper before you commit. Most Lantana homes see the biggest comfort change in west-facing rooms and any wall within sight of salt water.

Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Salt-air corrosion that outpaces the glass. Aluminum frames and sill pans in Lantana often fail within 15 to 20 years of installation, even when the glass itself is still clear. By the time you notice a draft or a water stain on the drywall, the frame has usually been corroding for years.
- Original jalousie windows that can’t be brought up to code. Those crank-out louvered glass panels are still all over Lantana’s Intracoastal-adjacent blocks, and no shutter or film solution makes them compliant with Florida’s wind-borne debris rules. Every single one legally requires full removal and replacement with an impact-rated unit.
- Hidden water damage behind old rough openings. Pre-1980 CBS construction often lacks proper flashing tape, and the wood bucks inside the block walls absorb decades of salt-driven moisture. You won’t see it until the old window comes out. That’s why our Lantana quotes include a written allowance for exactly this kind of discovery.
- Fogged glass from failed seals. Moisture between the panes means the insulating gas is gone and the seal has failed. In a salt-heavy town like Lantana, the failure comes faster than it would inland. The fix is a new sash or a full replacement, depending on the frame condition.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Lantana
Because the original aluminum frames in Lantana’s 1950s-1970s CBS homes have been absorbing salt spray from the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic for decades, and most of them are corroded to the point where an insert would sit inside a failing frame. Full-frame replacement is the only way to fix the flashing, the wood bucks, and the rough opening in one pass. If your house still has original jalousie windows, insert replacement isn’t an option anyway; those openings require complete tear-out to meet code. Call (561) 708-6771 and we’ll tell you what your house actually needs after an inspection, not before it.
Salt air on both sides of Lantana means standard zinc or coated hardware will corrode quickly, sometimes within a few years. We install stainless steel hardware on every Lantana job, and we specify corrosion-resistant frame materials that won’t pit and flake the way the original 1960s aluminum did. Failure to do this is the most common reason replacement windows in this town leak and bind before their time. Call (561) 708-6771 for a written quote that spells out exactly what hardware comes with your windows.
Yes. Lantana requires building permits for window replacement when the opening is being changed structurally, which is the case for full-frame replacements. Our team pulls the permit, schedules the inspection, and walks the job through to final approval. For insert replacements where the opening isn’t altered, the requirement is lighter, but we’ll confirm the exact requirement for your address before work begins. Call (561) 708-6771 and we’ll check your property’s permit status during the free estimate.
No. Under Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region rules and the Florida Building Code, jalousie windows cannot be brought into compliance with shutters, film, or any other overlay. The only code-legal fix is full removal and replacement with an impact-rated window or an approved shutter system in a code-compliant opening. Many Lantana homeowners learn this during a sale inspection. If you still have jalousies, start planning the changeout now rather than under a permit deadline. Call (561) 708-6771 for a free estimate on full replacement.
Fog between the panes means the seal has failed and the insulating gas has escaped. In Lantana’s salt-heavy air, seals fail faster than they do inland, so don’t wait and assume it’s cosmetic. The fix is either a new sash or a full replacement, depending on whether the frame is still sound. We’ll inspect the window, tell you which option makes sense, and quote it on paper before any work starts. Call (561) 708-6771 to schedule a free estimate.
