Why Juniper Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Door Replacement Company

Kendall homeowners keep calling us back because we show up when we say we will, with a live arrival time you can track from your phone. That’s the Relay Standard, and it’s been our operating rule since 2001. Before any work begins, you get a written price. Not a ballpark, not a handshake number. A line-item quote that doesn’t morph into something else once the old door comes off.

Every Juniper technician is background-checked and uniformed, so the person at your door is someone you can identify and trust. Kendall has a lot of older masonry homes, and our crews have templated rough openings in enough of them to know what an out-of-square jamb looks like before the new unit even arrives. That experience means fewer surprises mid-install, and a smoother permit and inspection path. Reviews from Kendall customers consistently point to the same things: the price stayed exactly where we put it, the work was clean, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise was in writing.

Interior Door Installation in Kendall

Interior Door Installation across Kendall homes usually means swapping slab doors in pre-hung frames, replacing dated hollow-core bedroom doors, or adding solid-core doors for noise control in townhomes and condos near Kendall Drive. The job itself runs $350 to $900 per door including labor and basic hardware, while solid-core or custom-spec interior units push toward $1,200 each. Homes in developments like Country Walk or The Hammocks often have repetitive hallway layouts, so we can template one opening and move through the rest of the house efficiently.

Retrofit Slab Replacement

When the existing frame is square and sound, a slab replacement keeps the job simple. We measure the hinge locations, match the bore, and hang a new door that shuts clean without dragging on the carpet or sticking against a shifted wall. This is common in Kendall’s older townhome stock where the frames were installed well but the original hollow-core slabs have warped from humidity.

Pre-Hung Unit Replacement

If the jamb has moved or the door has been trimmed multiple times to fit a settled floor, a full pre-hung unit gives a better result. We remove the old casing, set the new frame level and plumb, and case both sides. Most Kendall interior pre-hung installations are finished inside a single day, and we leave the room swept and the old material hauled away.

Door Installers in Kendall

Door Installers from Juniper handle exterior and impact-rated entry work across Kendall, including replacement of old wood or steel entry doors, slider swaps, and French door conversions. Standard exterior door installation in Kendall starts around $1,200 for a basic steel or fiberglass unit and climbs to $3,500 to $7,500 for Miami-Dade NOA-rated impact doors with reinforced frames. We do not send subcontractors; every installer on your job is a Juniper employee with background screening and trade training.

Entry Door Replacement

Most Kendall entry replacements are retrofits into 1970s to 1990s masonry openings. We template the rough opening before ordering, check that the existing jamb will carry an impact-rated unit, and build out any framing that has gone out of square. The goal is a door that passes both the visual inspection and the wind-mitigation paperwork your insurer wants.

Slider and French Door Swaps

Large openings like sliders and French doors need different handling. We check header condition, floor flatness, and the design pressure rating that matches the opening’s wind zone. In Kendall, a twin French door retrofit with impact glass typically runs $4,000 to $8,000 all-in, depending on whether we’re reusing the existing opening or modifying it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall

We carry and install Therma-Tru, PGT, ViewLux, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows across Kendall. If you need warranty service or parts on an existing CGI or CWS unit, we have local stock access that keeps turnaround short, and our crews know the Miami-Dade NOA documentation that these brands require. We do not push a single brand; we match the unit to the opening and the wind zone. A Kendall home on a west-facing canal lot gets a different glazing recommendation than a shaded interior townhome off Kendall Drive, and the brand choice follows from that, not the other way around.

Common Door Replacement Problems We See in Kendall Homes

• Out-of-square masonry openings: A large share of Kendall’s housing is 1970s to 1990s west-Dade masonry built before Florida’s post-Andrew impact code. When we template these openings, we regularly find jambs that have shifted half an inch or more, which determines whether the existing frame can carry an NOA-rated unit at all.
• Missing or outdated wind-mitigation documentation: Homeowners replacing a door without the Miami-Dade NOA paperwork end up fighting their insurer later. We handle the documentation as part of every impact-rated door replacement in Kendall, so the inspection and the insurance credit line up.
• Humidity damage on west-facing exposures: Doors on Kendall’s west and south exposures take afternoon heat and afternoon thunderstorms. We see warped slabs, swollen frames, and failed weatherstripping far more often on these sides of the house, and we spec the glazing and frame material to handle it.
• Rotted subfloor under old sliders: In Kendall homes built near canals or on lower lots, old slider thresholds leak slowly for years before anyone notices. When the slider comes out, the subfloor under it often needs repair before the new unit can be set, which is exactly the kind of thing a written change order should cover, in writing, before the saw comes out.

What Door Replacement Costs in Kendall

For context across the Florida market, impact windows generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed. A single-hung impact unit lands between $900 and $1,800, while large or custom openings run $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages on impact glass run $8,000 to $25,000 or more. In Kendall, the door-specific numbers sit inside those ranges, with the masonry retrofit factor pushing entry door work toward the upper middle. Opening count, wind zone, floor height, and frame material all shift the final number. The free in-home measure and written quote is the only way to get your exact price, and we do not change it once it’s signed.

Florida Pays You Back

Kendall homeowners replacing impact-rated doors can stack several incentive programs. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. After a wind-mitigation inspection ($75 to $150), many Kendall homeowners see windstorm premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Your carrier sets the final number, but the documentation we provide is what they ask for. We will not guarantee a specific credit amount, but we’ll make sure the paperwork is right.
