We’re based in Fort Lauderdale and know Palm Springs well - the 1950s CBS ranches on streets like Kirk Road, the low-lying terrain where groundwater sits just below grade, and the particular headache of pulling a permit only to have Palm Beach County red-tag your windows.

We don’t just swap glass; we reinforce rough openings, upgrade anchoring, and make sure your home’s envelope meets current wind-load standards.
Why Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida Is Palm Springs’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
Raymond Estevez built Groundwork on the idea that homeowners deserve one accountable team and real material choice, not contractor-grade defaults. In Palm Springs, that means we show up understanding your village’s specific constraints: the post-WWII CBS construction, the county’s strict post-Andrew inspection regime, and the reality that a bathroom remodel can become a whole-house fenestration project overnight.
We’ve earned a strong local reputation across Palm Beach County by treating exterior envelope work with the same discipline as our interior remodels. Homeowners in Palm Springs choose us because we carry Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, PGT, and CGI product lines - from standard vinyl replacements to impact-rated architectural units - so you’re not locked into whatever happens to be in the warehouse.
Our response time to Palm Springs is typically same-day or next-day for consultations, and we prioritize permit-flag situations because we know the county’s timeline doesn’t wait. You get one project manager from rough opening to final inspection. No handoffs to mystery subcontractors.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Palm Springs
Impact Windows & Doors
This is where most Palm Springs projects start, whether you planned it or not. Pull a permit for any significant renovation in this village, and Palm Beach County will likely require your fenestration to meet current wind-mitigation standards. Our impact window installations draw from PGT and CGI’s Miami-Dade-approved product lines, with laminated glass and reinforced frames rated for the hurricane exposure this region faces. We handle the structural engineering review, permit documentation, and inspection scheduling - critical in a municipality where original jalousie windows automatically fail.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Not all impact windows carry the same certification tier. For Palm Springs’s 33406 ZIP and surrounding county jurisdiction, we specify products that meet or exceed Palm Beach County’s amended Florida Building Code requirements, not just generic “hurricane resistant” marketing. That means proper missile-impact ratings, design pressure calculations for your specific roof height and exposure, and installation with galvanized anchors into your CBS block walls. On a classic CBS ranch on Kirk Road, our crew replaced original jalousie windows with impact-rated sliding glass doors and fixed lites, after the county inspector flagged them during a bathroom remodel permit. We installed impact glass that meets Palm Beach County wind-load requirements and reinforced the rough openings with galvanized anchors, turning an unexpected flag into a storm-ready envelope.
Window Replacement
Sometimes you’re not dealing with a permit surprise - your windows are simply failing from age, humidity damage, or corrosion. Palm Springs’s persistent humidity and salt air accelerate wood rot and fastener corrosion in older structures, compressing maintenance cycles significantly. We replace units with properly flashed, sealed, and anchored installations that account for your home’s specific wall construction. Vinyl, fiberglass, aluminum-clad wood - you choose based on budget and performance needs, not our convenience.
Door Installation
Entry doors, patio sliders, and French doors in Palm Springs face the same wind-load scrutiny as windows. We install impact-rated entry systems from Jeld-Wen and PGT with reinforced jambs and multi-point locking, plus sliding and patio door configurations that won’t bind or pull away from corroded tracks when the pressure drops. If your existing slider’s aluminum track has deteriorated from years of humidity exposure - common in these 1960s-era homes - we’ll address the subfloor and framing, not just drop in a new unit.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Springs
We work with 50+ recognized industry brands across every category we touch, and our windows and doors roster includes Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, PGT, and CGI. That range matters in Palm Springs because a 1957 CBS ranch on a quiet interior street has different needs than a partially updated home near Lake Worth Road. For homeowners also tackling exterior siding as part of their envelope upgrade, we carry James Hardie fiber-cement products. If your project expands to include kitchen or bath work, our KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry lines and Cambria countertop selections keep everything under one contractor relationship. You choose the brand, we handle the build.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Palm Springs Homes
- Original jalousie windows shatter easily under hurricane-force winds, allowing water and debris into the home. These louvered glass units were standard on 1950s-1970s CBS construction and offer zero impact resistance. County inspectors flag them immediately on any permitted project.
- Unreinforced roof-to-wall connections in older CBS homes can separate during storms, causing door and window frames to rack and fail. We see this structural weakness repeatedly in pre-1980s construction where the original builder didn’t strap the roof trusses to the wall top plate.
- Humidity and salt air corrode steel and aluminum door tracks, causing sliding doors to bind or pull away from their frames during high winds. Palm Springs’s location in South Florida’s high-humidity zone means this deterioration accelerates compared to inland markets.
- Permit-triggered scope expansion turns targeted projects into whole-house upgrades. Because Palm Springs’s core housing stock predates modern Florida Building Code wind-mitigation standards, pulling nearly any significant renovation permit triggers mandatory upgrades under Palm Beach County’s post-Hurricane Andrew code adoption, meaning projects routinely balloon in scope and cost compared to newer adjacent municipalities.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Palm Springs, FL
Here’s what window and door work actually costs in our market:
| Service | Typical Range in Palm Springs |
|---|---|
| Impact Window Installation (full home) | $8,000-$25,000 |
| Window Replacement (partial or full) | $4,500-$15,000 |
Your position in that range depends on several factors specific to Palm Springs properties: the extent of jalousie window replacement required, whether the county has already flagged your home during another permit, structural reinforcement needed in CBS block openings, and your product tier selection from our available brands. Homes with original 1950s construction typically land in the upper half of these ranges because rough openings need significant remediation.

FAQs - Windows & Doors in Palm Springs
Yes, if you’re pulling a significant renovation permit, Palm Beach County will require your fenestration to meet current wind-mitigation standards, which effectively means impact-rated products or approved alternatives for most homes. The county adopted stringent post-Hurricane Andrew amendments that don’t grandfather in original jalousie windows. Call (844) 665-0162 and we’ll review your specific permit situation - estimates are free.
Jalousie windows consist of multiple parallel glass louvers in an aluminum frame, with no continuous laminated glass layer or structural reinforcement to resist missile impact or pressure cycling. The Florida Building Code and Palm Beach County amendments specifically exclude them from compliance. They’re also prone to water intrusion even in moderate storms. We replace them with fixed or operable impact-rated units that satisfy county requirements.
A full-home jalousie replacement in a typical Palm Springs CBS ranch runs $8,000-$18,000 depending on opening count, structural remediation needs, and product tier selected. Most homes in this category have 8-14 original window openings, and the CBS block construction often requires galvanized anchor installation and flashing detail that wood-frame homes don’t. Call (844) 665-0162 for an exact quote based on your floor plan.
Approved hurricane shutters can satisfy Palm Beach County’s opening protection requirements in some circumstances, but they don’t address the underlying structural deficiencies that inspectors often flag in 1950s-1970s CBS construction. Shutters also require annual maintenance, manual or automated deployment, and don’t provide the passive 24/7 protection that impact windows do. We evaluate both approaches and recommend what’s appropriate for your specific home and permit conditions.
Yes, any exterior door replacement in Palm Beach County requires a permit if it involves the primary egress door or any door in a wind-borne debris region, which includes all of Palm Springs. The permit ensures your new door meets impact and pressure requirements, and that installation includes proper anchoring and flashing. We handle permit pulling and inspection scheduling as part of our standard project workflow.
