What changes if your project is in Hialeah
Homes from the 50s through the 70s, original windows
Much of Hialeah is single-story housing built between the fifties and the seventies, with original single-hung or jalousie aluminum windows. Those benefit the most from replacement: in almost every case the opening works as is and the impact unit goes in without structural changes, which makes the job far cheaper.
Jalousie and awning windows
Jalousie windows have no impact version: they have to be replaced with a slider, a fixed unit or an awning window. It is the most common replacement here and also the one you feel most on the AC bill, because a jalousie never seals.
Permits through the City of Hialeah
Hialeah runs its own building department. We file the application with the product NOA and the opening schedule, and we meet the final inspection. If the house has unpermitted additions, we spot it while measuring and tell you before we start, not after.

FAQ
Questions from customers in Hialeah
Can I replace my windows in Hialeah without a permit?
No. Replacing an exterior window is permitted work throughout Miami-Dade, even if the wall is untouched. Installing without a permit leaves undeclared work on the house that shows up at sale and can complicate an insurance claim after a storm.
Do I have to replace every window at once?
No. It can be phased, with a permit per phase. Most people start with the most exposed elevations and the doors. One caveat: the insurance credit for opening protection usually requires ALL openings to be protected, so the final phase is the one that brings the savings.
Do you work in Spanish?
Yes, the whole crew works in Spanish and English, and the estimate, the contract and the permit walkthrough come in whichever language you prefer.
