Why Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida Is Greenacres’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
Greenacres sits on the flat interior plain of Palm Beach County, and that geography shapes every window and door job we do here. The city’s housing stock - mostly single-story CBS homes built from the late 1960s through the early 1990s - predates the wind-load overhauls that followed Hurricane Andrew and the 2001 Florida Building Code. We know this because we’ve pulled permits on dozens of Greenacres properties where the original single-pane, non-impact windows and doors triggered mandatory upgrades during what the homeowner thought was a simple kitchen or bath remodel.
Our crews respond to Greenacres from our Fort Lauderdale base, and we’ve built relationships with Palm Beach County plan reviewers who know our drawings and our attention to connector details. Raymond Estevez, who leads Groundwork, insists that every Greenacres proposal include a realistic assessment of code-triggered work - lintel reinforcement, hurricane strap retrofits, and impact-rated replacements - so homeowners aren’t surprised mid-project. We’ve found that out-of-county contractors routinely underbid Greenacres jobs because they miss these local requirements entirely.
Our customers in Greenacres tell us the difference is accountability. One contractor, every phase. You choose the brand, we handle the build. From driveway to roofline, we manage the full exterior envelope - roofing, windows, doors, siding, fencing - without handing you off to separate trades.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Greenacres
Window Installation
New window installation in Greenacres almost always means impact-rated products, even when the homeowner starts out asking for standard vinyl. Palm Beach County enforces opening protection strictly, and the 33454 ZIP’s pre-1994 housing stock rarely passes inspection with original single-pane units still in place. We install Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, PGT, and CGI lines - mainstream through architectural-grade - so you’re choosing based on your budget and aesthetic, not what we happen to stock. Built to spec, not to convenience.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, back patio doors, and garage-to-house doors in Greenacres face the same code scrutiny as windows. We see a lot of rotting, non-impact sliding glass doors on 1970s CBS ranches - the kind with seized rollers and frames never anchored for hurricane loads. Our crew recently replaced one near Lake Worth Road and Jog Road: impact-rated sliding door, stainless steel rollers, galvanized tracks, plus the lintel reinforcement Palm Beach County required. The homeowner had started with a simple bathroom update. That’s Greenacres permitting in action.
Window Replacement
Window replacement runs $4,500-$15,000 in Greenacres, with the wide range reflecting how many openings need upgrading and whether lintel work is triggered. Original aluminum-frame windows from the 1980s are common here, and the untreated frames pit and corrode in South Florida’s humid salt air even inland. Seal failure follows. Water intrusion during summer convective storms damages drywall and framing. We replace with impact-rated vinyl, aluminum, or fiberglass units - your call on brand and tier - and we handle the permit drawings that show proper anchorage and connector details.
Impact Windows & Doors
Hurricane impact windows and impact sliding glass doors are the standard we install in Greenacres, not an upsell. The county’s local amendments to the Florida Building Code make that clear. Impact window installation ranges $8,000-$25,000 depending on home size, opening count, and whether structural reinforcement is needed. Our impact-rated products come from Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, PGT, and CGI - covering everything from basic white vinyl to architectural-grade aluminum with custom finishes. Expand what’s possible with your home’s protection and its curb appeal.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding and patio door replacements in Greenacres share the same corrosion story as windows, but with moving parts that fail faster. Salt-laden air seizes rollers and pits tracks within 5-7 years on non-anodized hardware. Doors sag. They bind. The gap at the bottom lets wind-driven rain through during storms. We specify stainless steel or galvanized hardware, impact-rated glass, and frames engineered for the wind loads Palm Beach County enforces.
Hurricane Shutters & Protection
Some Greenacres homeowners pair impact windows with colonial or accordion shutters for added protection or insurance discounts. Others use shutters as the primary opening protection on outbuildings or lanai enclosures where full impact glazing isn’t practical. We fabricate and install aluminum and polycarbonate systems to match your home’s look and your policy’s requirements.

Trusted Brands We Service in Greenacres
Groundwork works with 50+ recognized industry brands across every residential construction category, and our window and door roster includes Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, PGT, and CGI.

We don’t lock you into proprietary products or single-vendor relationships. You choose the brand, we handle the build - and because we order direct from manufacturer distribution serving Palm Beach County, lead times stay reasonable even for special-order finishes.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Greenacres Homes
- Salt-air corrosion seizes hardware within 5-7 years. Even inland Greenacres gets enough salt-laden humidity to pit non-anodized aluminum hinges, rollers, and tracks. Doors sag and bind. We replace with stainless steel or galvanized components rated for coastal exposure.
- Original single-pane windows fail hurricane inspections. The 1970s-80s housing stock throughout the 33454 ZIP predates modern wind-load requirements. Any permit for renovation triggers opening protection review, and those thin windows don’t pass. Full replacement becomes mandatory before the project proceeds.
- Untreated aluminum frames corrode and lose their seal. Water intrusion follows, especially during the intense convective storms that roll through Greenacres from June through October. We see stained drywall and rotted sill plates behind failed windows regularly.
- Sliding glass door rollers collapse from load and corrosion. The original doors on CBS ranches near Lake Worth Road and Jog Road weren’t built for decades of use in South Florida’s climate. Frames shift. Glass cracks. Impact-rated replacement with proper lintel support is the only code-compliant fix.

The high end includes full-home impact upgrades on larger properties where lintel reinforcement, connector retrofits, and custom architectural-grade products come into play.

FAQs - Windows & Doors in Greenacres
Palm Beach County enforces strict local amendments to the Florida Building Code, and any permit on a pre-1994 home typically triggers a review of the entire structure’s opening protection and roof-to-wall connectors. Your original single-pane windows and non-impact doors won’t meet current standards, so the county requires upgrade before they’ll approve the remodel. Call (844) 665-0162 and we’ll check your home’s permit history - estimates are free.
Greenacres sits only a few miles from the coast, and South Florida’s prevailing easterly winds carry enough salt to pit untreated aluminum and seize non-stainless hardware within 5-7 years. The flat terrain offers no topographic buffering. We specify coastal-grade materials even on inland Greenacres jobs because the humidity and salt load are real.
Inspectors verify impact rating labels, proper anchorage into CBS walls or reinforced lintels, approved connectors, and correct installation per the manufacturer’s Miami-Dade or Florida Product Approval. They’ll also check that roof-to-wall straps are present and intact if the permit scope triggered that review. Our drawings include all these details upfront so inspections pass the first time.
No. Palm Beach County requires impact-rated or otherwise opening-protected products for all replacements in the hurricane zone, and Greenacres falls under that requirement. Standard vinyl without impact certification won’t pass plan review or inspection. We carry multiple impact-rated vinyl lines from Simonton and PGT that meet code at various price points.
Seized sliding glass door rollers and rotted frames that were never anchored for hurricane loads. The original builders didn’t anticipate decades of salt-air exposure, and the lightweight aluminum tracks collapse under the door’s weight once corrosion sets in. Replacement with impact-rated units, stainless hardware, and proper lintel support is the only lasting fix.
