Hurricane Impact Glass Replacement
in Boca Raton, FL

Your impact window frames are intact — so why replace the entire window? When hurricane-rated glass cracks, chips, or loses its seal, Atlantic Window Repair replaces only the glass. We work within your existing certified frames, using the same category of impact-rated glass your windows were built with. You get fully restored hurricane protection at a fraction of the cost of a full window replacement.

Serving Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Pompano Beach, and the surrounding Palm Beach and Broward County communities.

When Glass-Only Replacement Makes Sense

A full window tear-out is expensive and disruptive. It makes sense when frames are corroded, warped, or structurally compromised. But if your frames are sound, replacing only the glass is the smarter move — and in most cases, it is equally as effective.

Glass-only replacement is the right call when:

  • The impact glass is cracked, chipped, or shattered from storm debris or impact
  • The seal between panes has failed, causing fogging or condensation inside the glass
  • The glass has lost its protective laminate or interlayer integrity
  • You want to upgrade to a higher-rated or Low-E glass without changing the frames
  • Your HOA or building requires certified impact glass but the existing frames are approved

Our technicians assess the condition of your frames before any work begins. If a full replacement is warranted, we will tell you clearly and explain why — no upselling.

Impact Glass in South Florida: What You Need to Know

In Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties, hurricane impact protection is not optional — it is required by Florida Building Code for any new installation or replacement. This means the glass must carry a Miami-Dade NOA or a Florida Product Approval and be installed by a licensed contractor.

South Florida's climate creates specific challenges for impact glass:

  • UV exposure and salt air accelerate seal degradation in double-pane units
  • Thermal cycling — the daily expansion and contraction from Florida heat — stresses the interlayer over time
  • Post-hurricane seasons often reveal latent damage that compromises the glass without an obvious visible break

Replacing damaged or degraded impact glass promptly restores your home's structural integrity and keeps your homeowner's insurance protection valid. Many insurers require certified impact glass to be in place and in good condition for the policy to apply during a storm event.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I keep my existing frames and just replace the impact glass?

In most cases, yes. If your frames are structurally sound, certified, and undamaged, we replace only the glass. This is significantly more cost-effective than a full window replacement and results in the same level of hurricane protection.

Does the replacement glass have to meet Miami-Dade standards?

Yes. Any impact glass replacement in Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties must meet Florida Building Code requirements and carry Miami-Dade NOA certification or an equivalent Florida Product Approval. We source only certified materials.

How long does hurricane impact glass replacement take?

Most residential single-window replacements are completed in one visit. Multi-window jobs or full installations are typically completed within one to two days, depending on scope. We confirm the timeline before starting any work.

Will my homeowner's insurance cover impact glass replacement?

Coverage depends on your policy and the cause of the damage. Storm and impact damage is commonly covered. We provide detailed documentation of the damage and the work performed, which can support your insurance claim.

Do you replace impact glass in commercial properties?

Yes. We work on both residential and commercial properties. For commercial jobs, contact us to discuss scope and scheduling.
