ES Windows Construction in Hollywood, FL | Penhallow Remodeling Fort Lauderdale
We install, retrofit, and repair ES Windows across Hollywood, from 1950s concrete-block ranches to beachfront condos. The work here is different because salt air, hurricane wind loads, and Miami-Dade code all press on every extruded aluminum frame we touch. We’re an independent ES Windows service provider, not a factory-authorized dealer, which means we answer to you, not a manufacturer’s sales quota. Call (754) 551-2922 for a free estimate.
Why Hollywood Residents Choose Us for ES Windows Service
Trevor Nash leads our Fort Lauderdale crew. He grew up in Los Angeles, trained at LA Trade-Technical College, and spent two decades running crews across South Florida before starting Penhallow Remodeling Fort Lauderdale. That background matters when you’re dealing with ES Windows hardware that has been beaten by Hollywood’s oceanfront air for fifteen years. We know which rollers seize, which gaskets fail, and which flashing details cause leaks on concrete-block homes built before anyone thought about HVHZ ratings.
We’re familiar with every ES Windows line you’re likely to have: E45 Impact, E55 HVHZ, E35 non-impact, and E25 Architectural. We stock OEM rollers, keepers, and weatherstripping for common repairs, and when OEM parts aren’t available for older models, we use marine-grade aftermarket extrusions that match the original profile. You won’t wait weeks for a part to ship. For full ES Windows sales & service across Hollywood service area, our crew shows up with a written scope and a realistic number.

Common ES Windows Construction Problems We Solve in Hollywood
- Salt-air pitting on aluminum frames. We see this on unanodized or scratched frames along Hollywood’s beachfront condos, especially within a mile of the ocean. White corrosion blooms form, and sashes stick. We clean, treat, and reseal where possible; if the pitting is deep, we replace the sash with a properly anodized unit.
- Failed glazing gaskets on E55 impact units. After 15 to 20 years of salt and sun, the gaskets harden and the thermal seal fails. You get interior fogging. We almost always recommend full sash replacement over reglazing because HVHZ labels can’t be field-certified on a reglazed unit.
- Warped or bowed mullions on wide E45 sliding doors. In 1950s Hollywood homes, original concrete openings were rarely perfectly square. When a wide slider gets forced into an out-of-square opening, the mullion bows and the door never quite closes. We correct the rough opening or fabricate a custom shoe before we set the frame.
- Improperly bedded sill flashing on retrofits. This shows up in Hollywood Lakes, where 1920s cast-concrete walls crack and let water run behind the frame. The previous retrofit job may have skipped the stainless sill pan. We pull the frame, bed it properly, and seal the stucco returns.
- Sprinkler overspray damage on lower tracks. This is a Hollywood-specific pattern. Irrigation systems aimed at the house for ten years will corrode lower tracks and freeze rollers. We replace the track and set the sprinkler heads differently as part of the repair, because fixing the window without fixing the water source just means another repair in three years.
ES Windows Service in Hollywood: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Hollywood’s historic preservation board requires any window replacement on a designated 1920s home in the Hollywood Lakes district to match the original sightlines and muntin patterns. That’s a real constraint, and it doesn’t come up in Fort Lauderdale or Oakland Park the same way. We handle it with custom ES Windows E25 series mullion grids and recessed-frame installations that satisfy both the historic review board and current HVHZ code. The result looks like the original 1920s window but carries today’s impact ratings. A generic window contractor will try to sell you a standard vinyl insert and get stopped at the permitting counter. We assume the preservation review will happen and we plan for it from the first measurement.
ES Windows Models & Products We Service in Hollywood
We work on the four main ES Windows lines: the E45 Impact Series for standard impact-rated applications, the E55 High-Velocity Hurricane Zone Series for oceanfront and high-exposure openings, the E35 Non-Impact Series for interior and protected elevations, and the E25 Architectural Series for historic and custom sightline work. For active lines, we use ES Windows OEM hardware. For obsolete E35 parts, we source marine-grade aftermarket extruded aluminum and stainless fasteners that match original profiles. Our parts stock in Fort Lauderdale covers the most common Hollywood repair scenarios, which keeps turnaround short when you’re trying to close up a condo before hurricane season.

AfterES Windows Service Pricing in Hollywood
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Impact Window Installation (per opening, ES Windows E55) | $8,000 – $25,000 |
| Window Replacement (ES Windows E45 or E55) | $4,500 – $15,000 |
What drives the number: opening size, whether it’s a standard single-hung or a wide slider, and whether the rough opening needs structural correction. On a 1950s Hollywood home with out-of-square concrete openings, expect the higher end. On a standard bedroom window with a clean opening, expect the lower end. A free estimate from us includes a written line-item price you can hold us to, not a range. Call (754) 551-2922 to schedule one.

FAQs – ES Windows Construction in Hollywood
Yes. Most 1950s concrete-block homes have rough openings that accommodate modern ES Windows E45 or E55 units with minimal structural work. We custom-shim and anchor each frame to the existing concrete. The caveat is whether the existing opening is square enough; if it isn’t, we correct it before setting the frame. Call (754) 551-2922 and we’ll measure your openings and give you a written number.
Salt air and driveway or lawn sprinkler overspray corrode the aluminum tracks and rollers. It usually starts as a slight drag and gets worse over two or three summers. We replace the rollers, clean and reseal the track, and if the track is pitted we install a new lower rail. It’s the most common ES Windows repair we do along Hollywood’s coastal strip.
ES Windows warranties cover the product, not the installation. If a frame failed due to a manufacturing defect, the warranty applies. If storm debris broke the glass or water intrusion came from a flashing problem, you’re dealing with an installation issue, not a product claim. We’ll identify which is which and write it out plainly. Our own guarantee covers our workmanship for 365 days, in writing.
Yes. That’s exactly what we use the E25 Architectural Series for. Custom mullion grids and recessed frames match the original sightlines, and the units carry today’s HVHZ rating. We’ve done this Bathroom Remodeling - Hollywood related restoration work in Hollywood Lakes and we know the preservation board’s expectations. Call (754) 551-2922 to talk through your specific house.
Usually two to four weeks from permitting to final inspection, depending on the condo association’s approval process and the specific E55 units needed. If you’re replacing before June, call us in March or April. Waiting until May leaves you racing the season. Estimates are free, and a written price comes before any work starts.
