AfterFast, Reliable Window Installation Across Hobe Sound
Window installation in Hobe Sound means working with Martin County’s stricter permit process, salt air off the Intracoastal, and homes that range from 1960s CBS ranchers to oceanfront estates on Jupiter Island’s doorstep. Our Window Installation team handles all of it. We pull the permits, match every NOA number to the paperwork, and install windows that hold up to coastal Florida conditions. Call us at (754) 324-4646 for a free estimate.
We’ve been doing this work long enough to know that Hobe Sound homeowners expect the job done right the first time. No exceptions.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hobe Sound’s Preferred Window Installation Company
Dale Kessler started TruePane in 2008 with a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard applies to every window we set in Hobe Sound, whether it’s a jalousie-to-impact upgrade on a 1970s block home or architect-specified casements on a custom build near Bridge Road.
Here’s what that means for you. We show up on time, in uniform, background-checked. We measure every opening twice. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. And before our truck leaves your driveway, both warranty layers are registered in writing with durations stated. That’s The Keystone Standard. It’s not a slogan. It’s how we’ve kept local homeowners calling us back since 2008 of combined craft heritage.
When a permit inspector in Martin County checks your windows against the Florida Product Approval database, the paperwork matters as much as the glass. We’ve never had a Hobe Sound job red-tagged for an NOA mismatch. We don’t intend to start now.
Our Done Right Promise covers the workmanship. The manufacturer warranties cover the product. Both are in writing. We stand behind it.
Our Window Installation Services in Hobe Sound
Every window we install in Hobe Sound gets the same treatment: correct product approval, proper flashing, and a plumb, square, level set. But different homes need different windows. Here’s what we handle most often across the area.
Casement Windows
Casement windows are common on Hobe Sound homes for good reason. They seal tightly against driving rain coming off the Atlantic, and modern impact-rated casements from lines like CGI and ES Windows give you serious storm protection without sacrificing the look of a coastal home. We routinely replace corroded jalousie units with casements on older CBS homes throughout unincorporated Martin County.
Awning Windows
Awning windows work well in Hobe Sound because they can stay open during light rain and still ventilate a humid kitchen or bath. We install them in tighter openings where a casement swing won’t fit, and on acreage homes where cross-breezes off the Intracoastal matter. Salt exposure near the water means we spec marine-grade hardware on every awning unit within a half-mile of the Intracoastal.
Fixed & Picture Windows
Fixed picture windows are the go-to for Hobe Sound homeowners who want the view without the moving parts. On acreage properties, we often put them in detached workshops, pool houses, and outbuildings where code allows non-operable glazing in specific locations. On the barrier island side, architect-specified fixed units with impact glass are a standard request. We frame them to handle wind load and seal them against salt-driven moisture.
Single & Double Hung Windows
Single and double hung windows remain a favorite on Hobe Sound’s older ranch homes. The problem is that original aluminum frames from the 1970s and 1980s conduct heat and collect salt corrosion. When we replace them, we always do full-opening replacements. Reusing old jamb boxes is exactly how you get fogged glass two years after install. We don’t do that.
We also install sliding windows, bay and bow units, garden windows, and basement windows. If it’s a window, we set it square.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hobe Sound
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, ES Windows, and CWS. For Hobe Sound customers, we lean heavily on impact-rated lines that carry Florida Product Approval numbers the county recognizes. We quote side by side on paper so you can compare CGI against ES Windows or ECO Window Systems without guesswork. No bait-and-switch, no vague allowances. You see the numbers before you sign.
For acreage builds on Bridge Road or the unincorporated stretches off US-1, we coordinate with your architect or builder to spec the right product the first time. The permit office in Martin County isn’t forgiving about substitutions. Neither are we.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Hobe Sound Homes
- Red-tagged permits for NOA mismatches. Martin County inspectors verify the product approval number on every installed window against the permit documents. Out-of-county crews miss this routinely. We file the right NOA the first time and have never been sent back to the permit counter on a Hobe Sound job.
- Fogged glass within two or three years. Salt air eats aluminum and sealant. If the full opening isn’t replaced and corroded jamb material gets reused, moisture gets in and the insulated unit fails. We replace the entire opening, not just the sash.
- Binding sliders on sandy, low-lying lots. Foundation settlement on Hobe Sound’s sandy soil throws door and window openings out of square. We check level and plumb before we order, and we won’t set a frame on a racked opening.
- Corrosion of hardware within five years. Properties within a half-mile of the Intracoastal go through hardware faster than inland homes. We use stainless and marine-grade hardware on water-view installs and tell you exactly what to expect down the road.
Pricing for Window Installation in Hobe Sound, FL
A single impact-rated casement window installed on a CBS home in Hobe Sound typically runs $900 to $1,600 per opening, depending on size, brand, and whether we’re replacing a jalousie unit that requires reframing. A full-house jalousie-to-impact conversion on a three-bedroom ranch usually lands between $12,000 and $28,000. Awning windows start around $700 per unit. Fixed picture windows on an outbuilding can be as low as $500 for a modest opening, but impact-rated picture windows on a custom build near the water run $1,500 to $4,000 depending on the glass package.
What changes the price on Hobe Sound acreage? Septic and well setbacks. If a new window requires an opening that doesn’t exist, we check the site plan for setbacks before quoting. Long material hauls, outdated openings, and Martin County permit fees also factor in. We provide a written line-item quote before any work starts, and that quote doesn’t move unless the scope changes. Call (754) 324-4646 to schedule your free estimate.

FAQs - Window Installation in Hobe Sound
Yes. Martin County requires a permit for any window replacement that changes the opening or product type, and a separate product-approval verification step tied to the Florida Product Approval database. The NOA number on the new unit must exactly match the permit documents. We handle the permit, the NOA documentation, and the inspection. Call (754) 324-4646 and we’ll walk you through it.
Window openings themselves don’t trigger septic or well setbacks in Martin County, but the work around them can. If we’re cutting a new opening near a drain field, we flag it before quoting and adjust the plan. We’ve built on acreage in Hobe Sound long enough to know where the county draws the line, and we check before we cut. Get a free estimate at (754) 324-4646.
Within a half-mile of the Intracoastal, aluminum frames and hardware corrode noticeably faster than inland. That’s why we spec marine-grade hardware and full-opening replacements on water-view properties. On a recent casement install on Bridge Road, the original jalousie sashes were so corroded that three of them snapped during removal. New impact-rated casements with low-E glass and argon fill go in properly, and we pre-order the frames to avoid a stop-work order. Call (754) 324-4646 for a quote on salt-tolerant windows.
It depends on the structure, its location, and what Martin County’s wind-load maps require. Detached non-habitable structures often have different glazing requirements than the main house, but the county still checks product approvals. We’ll tell you what code requires before we quote it, and we won’t sell you an impact package you don’t need. Call (754) 324-4646 to discuss your shop or outbuilding.
Because the installer likely reused the old jamb boxes or failed to create a proper seal, allowing salt-laden moisture between the glass panes. On Hobe Sound homes near the Intracoastal, this happens fast. The fix is a full-opening replacement with a properly set insulated unit. We do it once and do it right. Call (754) 324-4646 to schedule a look.
