How Much Does Windows & Doors Cost in Miami?
Window replacement in Miami typically runs $650 to $1,400 per window installed, while exterior door replacement usually lands between $1,200 and $3,800 per door, depending on size, material, and whether the opening needs impact-rated glass. A whole-home window package on a standard three-bedroom Miami house generally falls between $9,000 and $22,000 for impact-rated units, and a front entry with a storm-rated door and new hardware often comes in around $2,000 to $4,500. Prices swing based on product line, opening count, and how much prep the older Miami-Dade opening needs.
We install PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux across Miami, and the range above reflects what we actually quote on jobs in neighborhoods like Coral Gables, Little Havana, Kendall, and Miami Beach. No two openings are identical, but the numbers below give you a working budget before you ever pick up the phone.
Windows & Doors Cost Breakdown (2026)
Here’s a straight-line look at what specific line items cost in the Miami market this year. All figures are installed, including removal and disposal of the old unit unless noted.
| Item | Typical Installed Range |
|---|---|
| Single-hung or double-hung window (impact-rated, standard size) | $650 – $1,100 |
| Large sliding glass window or picture window (impact-rated) | $1,100 – $2,400 |
| Impact-rated sliding glass door (patio door) | $2,200 – $5,500 |
| Front entry door (Therma-Tru fiberglass, impact glass) | $2,000 – $4,500 |
| Rear or side exterior door (steel or fiberglass) | $1,200 – $2,800 |
| Window removal and disposal per opening | $35 – $85 |
| Stucco or concrete opening repair around the frame | $80 – $300 per opening |
| Hurricane shutter retro-fit (per window, if applicable) | $180 – $450 |
| Interior trim and casing (per opening) | $60 – $220 |
What pushes a quote to the top of these ranges? Impact-rated glass, custom sizing, and any opening that’s out of square after decades of Miami humidity and storm cycles. What keeps it near the bottom? Standard sizing off the shelf, a single-material order across the whole house, and openings that haven’t been patched or repaired before.
The single biggest line-item swing on any Miami job is the glass. A non-impact window might be cheap up front, but most insurers in Miami-Dade won’t write or renew a policy without impact-rated openings meeting the current wind-borne debris standards. So when we quote a window, the impact rating is baked in, not an upsell.
If you’re working on a broader project, it’s worth understanding how window and door trades fit into the rest of your home’s systems. Our home page walks through the full Relay Standard – book in a tap, live arrival time, before-and-after photos, and a written price before anything starts.
What Affects Windows & Doors Pricing in Miami
Not every window costs the same in Kendall as it does in Edgewater. Here’s what actually moves the number:
- Impact rating and glass package. Miami-Dade and Broward sit in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which is why impact-rated glass costs more than standard insulated units. A single-pane non-impact window isn’t a real option in most of Miami anyway – it won’t pass code on new openings and won’t satisfy most insurers.
- U-factor and SHGC performance. Miami’s heat pushes homeowners toward lower U-factors (how well the window resists heat flow) and SHGC ratings (how much solar heat gets through). Higher-performance glass costs more, but it changes what your AC runs in August.
- Frame material. Aluminum is the standard for South Florida because it tolerates salt air and humidity without swelling or rotting, which is why brands like CGI and ES Windows lean heavily into it. Vinyl and wood-clad options exist, but wood frames don’t hold up near the coast the way aluminum does.
- Opening condition. A 1970s Little Havana block home and a 2010s Brickell condo don’t need the same prep. Rotted framing, out-of-square openings, and stucco damage all add labor and materials per opening.
- Product line and size. Eight lines on the shelf means we can match budget to performance – PGT at the higher end, Mr-Glass for value-driven replacements, and something in between from CWS or ECO Window Systems. Oversized picture windows and sliding doors cost more because of glass area and hardware.
- Number of openings. Whole-home jobs get better per-unit pricing than single-window replacements because setup, mobilization, and disposal spread across more work. A three-window job often costs more per window than a fifteen-window job.
One factor we can’t control but always quote around: Miami buildings built before the 1994 Florida Building Code – and everything pre-Andrew – often have original openings that need shimming, flashing, or waterproofing work once the old unit comes out. We put that in the written price up front so it never shows up as a line item at the end.
How to Save on Windows & Doors
Real savings in Miami come from three places: product selection, scope timing, and getting a written price before anyone starts.
- Bundle openings. Replacing six or more windows at once drops the per-window cost because mobilization and disposal spread further. If two windows are failing, it’s often worth pricing the whole floor instead of a spot fix.
- Match the product to the room. Not every opening needs a top-tier U-factor. Bedrooms facing west catch the worst afternoon heat, so they earn the better glass; a shaded north-facing hallway window doesn’t.
- Handle doors and windows in one project. Exterior doors carry the same impact-rating requirements as windows in the hurricane zone. Doing both at once means one mobilization, one permit cycle, and one inspection.
- Ask about product-line options, not just price. We keep PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux on hand specifically so we can offer real choices instead of steering everyone to one line.
- Get the written price before work starts. Every Juniper project gets a written number up front – no estimate that morphs into a surprise invoice. It’s the simplest discount there is: no surprise line items.
Free estimates are standard here. Call (682) 281-2168 and a live person answers, day or night, with a real appointment, not a callback queue. We’ll walk the openings, show you what’s driving the cost on each one, and hand you a written price before anyone touches a screw.
Windows & Doors Cost by Product Line in Miami
We carry eight lines because different Miami homes need different things. Here’s roughly how they land on price and where we typically recommend them:
- PGT – premium hurricane-zone windows and doors. Highest cost band, best fit for coastal and high-wind areas like Miami Beach and Key Biscayne.
- CGI – aluminum-framed windows with strong impact ratings and clean sightlines. Mid-to-upper range.
- CWS – dependable impact windows at a middle price point.
- ES Windows – solid impact-rated aluminum options for standard residential openings.
- ECO Window Systems – value-minded impact windows without sacrificing the rating.
- Mr-Glass – budget-conscious replacements when the priority is passing inspection and satisfying insurance.
- Therma-Tru – entry doors built to handle Miami heat and humidity with impact glass options.
- ViewLux – newer line with contemporary styling for modern Miami builds and remodels.
Picking the line is usually a two-minute conversation once we know the opening sizes, orientation, and whether the home is coastal or inland. That’s the point of stocking eight – the right window for your house isn’t a compromise on any one line.
What’s Typically Included in a Juniper Quote
Miami pricing can look wildly different between contractors because of what’s inside the number and what’s dropped outside it. Here’s what’s inside every Juniper quote:
- Removal and disposal of the old window or door
- New impact-rated unit sized to the opening
- Flashing and waterproofing at the perimeter
- Interior and exterior trim as applicable
- Hardware, locks, and screens for door replacements
- Site cleanup and haul-away
- Written price before any work starts
- 365-Day Done Right Promise on the installation – parts and labor, in writing
Permits are quoted separately in Miami because the requirement varies by scope and municipality. Most single-opening replacements fall under a homeowner exemption, but full-home replacement usually needs a permit and an inspection by the city or county, and the price reflects that.
The 365-Day Done Right Promise is the part that isn’t standard in this trade. If something’s not right on a completed installation – a leak, a misaligned frame, hardware that fails – we make it right, covered in writing, for a full year. And if a repair fails, the second visit is on us.
Why Miami Pricing Isn’t the Same as Everywhere Else
South Florida has cost drivers no other market shares. The hurricane-zone rating requirement means a base window costs more than a base window in, say, Atlanta or Dallas. Salt air near the coast shuts out frame materials that would work inland. And Miami’s 1994-and-later building stock mixes with pre-Andrew structures, so two homes on the same street can quote miles apart.
We quote each opening individually for this reason. A single number across an entire house is fine for ballparking, but it hides the fact that your west-facing bedrooms, your sliding patio door, and your hallway window are three different problems with three different solutions.
FAQs – Windows & Doors Cost
How much does it cost to replace a window in Miami?
Replacing a single impact-rated window in Miami typically costs $650 to $1,100 installed for a standard size, and $1,100 to $2,400 for large sliding or picture windows. Custom sizes, low U-factors, and pre-1994 openings that need framing repair push toward the upper end. Call (682) 281-2168 for an exact quote – estimates are free and same-day appointments are often available.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace windows in Miami?
For most Miami windows over 15 years old, replacement is cheaper over the long run. A repair – new glass, new seals, new hardware – might run $180 to $500 per window, but it doesn’t fix a failed frame, a broken thermal seal, or an opening that no longer meets wind-borne debris standards. Replacement runs $650 to $1,100 per standard window and resets the clock on performance. Call (682) 281-2168 and we’ll tell you straight which one your window actually needs.
How much does a front door replacement cost in Miami?
A Therma-Tru fiberglass entry door with impact glass in Miami usually runs $2,000 to $4,500 installed, depending on size, glass package, and hardware. Steel or smooth fiberglass rears and side doors land between $1,200 and $2,800. Hurricane-zone rating, sidelights, and transoms are the three biggest price movers. Call (682) 281-2168 for a written quote on your specific opening.
Do I need impact windows in Miami?
Yes, for any new or replaced exterior opening in Miami-Dade. The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standard requires impact-rated glass on exterior windows and doors, and most insurers either require them or discount policies that have them. Budget $650 to $1,100 per standard window for impact-rated units – the rating isn’t optional and isn’t an upsell.
How long does window or door installation take in Miami?
A typical single window takes 2 to 4 hours, a front door usually 4 to 6 hours, and a whole-home window replacement on a standard three-bedroom Miami home runs two to four days. Older openings needing framing or stucco repair add time. Call (682) 281-2168 and we’ll give you a written timeframe before we book the job.
