AfterWindow Company in The Hammocks, FL
Westlight Windows & Doors replaces and installs windows and doors throughout The Hammocks, a community where most homes were built between 1983 and 1995 and still carry their original single-pane aluminum windows and hollow-core doors. What makes The Hammocks different is simple: this is CBS construction, post-Andrew code country, and a zip code where wind mitigation credits can meaningfully lower homeowners insurance. If you’re pricing new windows or an entry door here, call (903) 354-7134 and you’ll get a written price before any work starts.
Why The Hammocks Homes Are Different
The Hammocks sits on the eastern edge of the Everglades buffer, and that location shapes every window and door job we take on here. Afternoon thunderstorms roll off the wetlands and drive moisture straight into the neighborhood, which means interior humidity runs high, argon-gas seals in standard insulated glass fail faster than they do elsewhere in Miami-Dade, and non-impact aluminum frames pit and oxidize at a pace you do not see in coastal pockets with salt-resistant coatings. Homes here were largely built in the 1980s and early 1990s, before Hurricane Andrew hit in August 1992 and before Miami-Dade adopted its current impact-glazing requirements, so a large share of the original windows and doors predate the code mandates entirely.
Because The Hammocks is dominated by concrete block structure (CBS) single-family homes and townhome clusters, replacement work involves masonry anchor schedules and buck framing that wood-frame markets never require. The code reality is specific too: every window and door replacement in The Hammocks must carry a current Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA), which is a county-level product approval above and beyond the Florida Building Code. That approval requirement shapes what we specify and install here more than almost anything else.
Our Main The Hammocks Services
Three services account for nearly every call we take from The Hammocks homeowners, and each one has its own page with local pricing, product details, and a process walk-through.
Window Replacement in The Hammocks
Most The Hammocks homes still have their original non-impact aluminum sliders, and replacing them with impact-rated units means handling the CBS buck framing and NOA paperwork correctly from day one. We carry PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux, so the product is matched to the opening rather than the other way around. Learn more on our Window Replacement in The Hammocks page.
Window Installation in The Hammocks
New-construction and addition work in The Hammocks carries the same code weight as replacement: any new window opening must meet Miami-Dade impact requirements, and the install sequence for concrete block walls is different from stick framing. We handle the anchoring, flashing, and sealant details that keep the afternoon storm-driven moisture out. See Window Installation in The Hammocks for specifics.
Door Installation in The Hammocks
Entry doors in The Hammocks are frequently the original hollow-core units installed in the 1980s and 1990s, which means they are not impact-rated and not sealing well against the humidity. We install impact-rated doors with proper threshold and frame anchoring suited to CBS construction. Details are on our Door Installation in The Hammocks page.

Prices in The Hammocks push higher than the county average when a home’s CBS walls need masonry anchors beyond the typical schedule, or when the existing opening is non-standard and requires a custom-size unit. Whatever the final number, you receive it in writing before we order a single part, and that number does not change at the door.

What The Hammocks Customers Say
"Replaced eight drafty old windows that were basically single pane. The house is warmer already and the street noise is way down. Crew was on time both days and the price was exactly the quote."
- Harold Bemis"Our energy bill in summer was brutal. New windows made a real dent in it. Salesman wasn't pushy and didn't do the fake "today only" discount thing the others tried."
- Bethany Oh"Two bedroom windows that never opened and one that wouldn't stay up. All replaced in an afternoon. The crew was clean, hauled off the old frames, and the quote held."
- Colette Rhee
