AfterWindow Company in South Bay, FL
Most window and door work in South Bay comes down to two things: heat that never quits and hurricanes that come in cycles. That means the right glass, the right frame, and an installation crew that understands both. Meridian Windows & Doors handles window replacement, window installation, and patio door installation across South Bay, FL with written pricing before any work starts and a 365-day guarantee on every job. Call (817) 686-2228 to talk through what your house actually needs.
Why South Bay Homes Are Different
South Bay sits at the southern edge of Palm Beach County, where summer heat lands hard and storm season runs from June through November. Houses here were built across several decades, and plenty of the older ones still have single-pane aluminum windows that leak air and let UV eat through furniture and flooring. That is a measurable energy cost every month, not just a comfort issue.
What changes the work in South Bay is the wind. Homes here have to handle real storm pressure, which means impact-rated glass is more than an upgrade, it is the practical choice for exterior openings. We spec PGT and CGI products regularly in South Bay because their impact ratings hold up under Florida wind-load requirements. Local building codes also apply, and we pull permits when the job calls for it. The soil here is sandy and flat, so foundation settling can shift frames over time. We see it most on older patio door tracks, where the slab moves just enough that the door drags or stops sealing. Those are South Bay problems, and they get South Bay solutions.
Our Main South Bay Services
South Bay homeowners call us most about two things: replacing windows that have outlived their seal, and installing patio doors that actually roll and lock the way they should. Each service has its own South Bay page with pricing, timelines, and the local conditions that affect the work.
Window Replacement in South Bay
Replacing windows in South Bay usually means pulling out old single-pane or failed thermal units and putting in glass that blocks heat and meets wind code. We inspect the rough opening, check for rotted framing at the sill, and measure for a flush fit before we order anything. Most South Bay replacements go in over one or two days depending on the count. The full scope, price ranges, and what to expect during a South Bay replacement are on the Window Replacement in South Bay page.
Window Installation in South Bay
New construction and additions in South Bay call for window installation, not replacement. The difference is the rough opening: in a new build, we set the window into fresh framing, flash and seal it, and make sure the opening tolerances match the manufacturer’s spec. In South Bay’s flat, sandy terrain, proper flashing matters because wind-driven rain finds every gap. Read the full step-by-step on the Window Installation in South Bay page.
Patio Door Installation in South Bay
South Bay slabs shift over time, and an older patio door is often the first thing to feel it. We remove the old door, check the rough opening for level and square, and shim or repair as needed before the new unit goes in. Sliding glass doors and hinged French units both go in regularly across South Bay. The brands we install, the price range, and how to tell if your slab is the real problem are all covered on the Patio Door Installation in South Bay page.

Pricing for Window Company in South Bay, FL
| Service | Typical range in South Bay |
|---|---|
| Single window replacement | $400 – $1,200 installed |
| Full-home window replacement (8 – 12 windows) | $6,000 – $18,000 installed |
| Impact window replacement | $900 – $2,500 per opening |
| Standard window installation (new construction) | $200 – $500 per window |

| French or hinged patio door installation | $3,000 – $9,000 installed |
| Full-frame window replacement (rotted sill or jamb) | $700 – $1,800 per window |
What pushes a South Bay job toward the top of those ranges is usually the opening: impact-rated glass, full-frame tear-out instead of a pocket insert, or rotted framing that has to be rebuilt before the new window goes in. Whatever the number is, you see it in writing before the first screw turns, and that price does not move at the door.

FAQs About Window Company in South Bay
We schedule South Bay work on set appointments, not four-hour windows. You get a day and a time, and the crew shows up prepared with the right materials for the job. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami (South FL) office, with crews serving South Bay locally.
It depends on the scope. Straight pocket replacements often skip a permit, but full-frame teardowns, impact-rating upgrades, and new openings usually require one. We pull permits when the job calls for it, and the permit cost goes on your written estimate before work begins.
Impact-rated glass with low-E coating handles both problems: the impact rating meets Florida wind-load requirements, and the low-E coating reflects solar heat while letting light through. PGT and CGI are the two lines we recommend most often in South Bay because their ratings are consistent and parts stay available locally.
