Why Richmond West Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
We work in neighborhoods like Three Lakes and the pockets off SW 152nd Street where the post-Andrew rebuilds are all hitting the same age: 25 to 30 years old, with seals failing and frames pulling away from the block. Homeowners here tell us the same story, that a contractor quoted them one thing and the bill came back another, or that a fogged window from five years ago still hasn’t been resolved. Dale Kessler founded this company on a straight rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard applies to every Impact Windows & Doors in Richmond West we set and every door we hang.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they show up when they say they will. Before we leave your driveway, both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing with the durations stated. That’s our Keystone Standard, and it’s covered by a Done Right Promise: if something isn’t right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing. Homeowners in Richmond West also appreciate the permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, along with a free written repair estimate.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Richmond West
Window Installation
New construction or retrofit, we measure every opening twice and set each unit level and square against the rough opening. Richmond West’s CBS construction means we’re often working with block walls, which call for a different flashing and anchoring approach than wood frame. Learn more about our Window Installation in Richmond West.
Door Installation
Entry doors, side doors, and interior doors all go in the same way we’d install them in our own family’s homes: plumb, sealed, and swinging true. The standing water after a heavy afternoon storm is the real test for a threshold here, and we set them to shed water away from the house. Learn more about our Door Installation in Richmond West.
Window Replacement
If you’re still living with original single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows from before Andrew, you’re fighting a losing battle against water and rising electric bills. We’ll walk you through manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Richmond West.
Impact Windows & Doors
Every replacement in Richmond West must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, full stop. We’re authorized installers for PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, among others, and we register both warranty layers before we leave.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E glass and thermally broken frames do more than cut your cooling bill; they also reduce the condensation that eats at frames in 70% humidity. For Richmond West homes with east and west exposures, the right Energy-Efficient Windows in Richmond West glass package is a difference you’ll feel within a week.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Those old aluminum Sliding & Patio Doors in Richmond West that howl during a summer storm and jam in the track are a weak point in more ways than one. We replace them with impact-rated units that glide on stainless rollers and lock up tight against wind-driven rain.
Glass Railing Systems
For patio decks and pool surrounds, Glass Railing Systems in Richmond West hold up to the sun and salt air without pitting or clouding. We set the posts into the CBS deck so they stay plumb for decades, not seasons.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd openings, arched tops, corner windows, oversized sliders: if it’s not a stock size, we’ll get it made. Dale Kessler’s glazier background means we’re not afraid of a spec sheet; we just measure it right the first time.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Richmond West
Our crews work throughout Richmond West, from the newer sections near SW 152nd Street to the established blocks off SW 117th Avenue. Typical response for an estimate in this area is within one to two business days, and most repair visits can be scheduled within the week.

Why Richmond West’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Richmond West sits near the eastern edge of the Everglades, and the flat, low-lying terrain means water doesn’t drain away, it sits. After a heavy afternoon storm, you’ll see it pooled at the base of door thresholds and seeping under window sills. The sustained humidity above 70% works on gaskets and caulking year-round, and the UV here is punishing to anything made of vinyl or rubber. We regularly find weep-hole systems clogged with algae and debris, and threshold gaskets that have compressed to nothing. Water intrusion is the leading failure mode we see in this neighborhood, and it’s almost always traceable to the frame seal, not the glass itself.
Then there’s the housing stock. Most of Richmond West is CBS construction from the mid-80s through the late 90s, with a heavy concentration of post-Andrew rebuilds from 1993 to 1997. Those original impact units are now three decades old: the laminated glass may still be sound, but the frames, seals, and hardware are not. Pre-Andrew survivors often still have aluminum single-pane sliders and jalousie windows that were never upgraded to HVHZ-compliant glazing. Insurance carriers know this, which is why a growing share of our calls here start with a letter from Citizens or a private carrier demanding proof of NOA-rated openings on every elevation. The conversation isn’t about style preferences; it’s about keeping your policy active.

For a typical 2,000 square foot CBS home, full impact window replacement runs $18,000 to $35,000 depending on window count and manufacturer line. We’ll put Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, PGT, and CGI side by side on paper so you can see exactly what each costs.

What Richmond West 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."Eleven windows replaced in two days. The crew chief, Marcus, showed me the level on every single frame before they caulked it. My wife noticed the street noise was gone before I did."
- Ronald P."Two entry doors. Showed up when they said, second day was a half day like they said, and the painter they recommended confirmed the frames were dead plumb. The financing was explained in actual dollars, not a brochure."
- Janet R.
