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 the panes has failed, and the fog trapped inside is past what foggy window repair can clear
- 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.
If the window is an older, non-impact unit with a single sheet of glass, the fix is a standard single pane glass replacement instead. Glass that is scratched or clouded on the surface but not cracked can often be restored with glass polishing and restoration rather than replaced.
What Atlantic Window Repair Does
We provide hurricane impact glass replacement for residential and commercial properties across South Florida. Our scope of work includes:
- Impact glass replacement in existing frames, single and double units
- Full impact units fitted through new window installation when the frame cannot be saved
- Laminated glass, plus insulated impact units built on the same sealed design as double pane insulated glass
- Low-E impact glass upgrades for improved energy efficiency
- Glass in impact sliders, with rollers, tracks and locks covered by sliding glass door repair
We are not tied to one glass brand or supplier. The replacement unit is matched to the rating of the glass coming out, and every replacement is carried out by our own in-house team from start to finish.
How the Replacement Process Works
We keep the process simple and transparent from the first call to the final inspection.

Our technicians remove the damaged glass, prepare the frame, and install the new certified unit. The work area is cleaned before we leave.

Impact Glass in South Florida: What You Need to Know
Across Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade, most homes and commercial buildings are built around impact glass. A cracked or failed unit has to be replaced with glass of the same rating and 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
When a storm breaks an impact pane outright and the replacement unit is still being made, emergency board up keeps the opening closed until installation day.
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 match the original impact rating?
Yes, it does. An impact frame needs an impact unit, so we source the replacement to the same rating as the glass coming out and never put ordinary glass into an impact opening.
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 do. Offices, shops and condo buildings are handled through commercial glass repair, with the work scheduled around business hours.
