Impact windows in Gulf Stream, FL
Gulf Stream has its own design rules for windows and doors, and permits go through Highland Beach only after the town signs off. We install Florida Product Approval impact units that fit the town's architectural review.
Neighborhoods we serve
Ocean to Intracoastal
Gulf Stream is a low-density town of estate homes between the ocean and the Intracoastal. About 91% of homes are owner-occupied, and the median home was built in 1979.
Built for Gulf Stream code
What the Town of Gulf Stream checks
Gulf Stream does not issue its own building permits. Under an interlocal agreement, Highland Beach's building department does, through its MGO portal, and only after Gulf Stream zoning approval and fees. Every window and door job also needs the Gulf Stream Window and Door Affidavit, which acknowledges the town code's limits on window and door design and appearance by architectural style. Breaking those rules can lead to penalties up to liens. Exterior changes start with a pre-application meeting with the Town Manager and staff, and designs that use discouraged elements go to the Architectural Review and Planning Board. Oceanfront buildings must sit 25 feet back from the 1979 coastal control line. We plan the product with the town's style rules in mind before anything is ordered.

FAQ
Gulf Stream questions
Local permitting, HOA rules, and the right ratings, we handle it all.
Call (954) 884-8224Is Gulf Stream in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone?
No. The HVHZ covers only Broward and Miami-Dade. Gulf Stream is in Palm Beach County's wind-borne debris region, so every window and door needs Florida Product Approval or a Miami-Dade NOA. The county wind map puts Gulf Stream between the 160 and 170 mph lines, and we design to 170.
Who issues window permits in Gulf Stream?
Highland Beach's building department, under an interlocal agreement, after Gulf Stream approves zoning and collects its fees. We file both steps. Permit fees are separate.
What is the Gulf Stream Window and Door Affidavit?
It is a signed form acknowledging the town code's design limits on windows and doors for each architectural style. Noncompliance can bring penalties up to liens, so we choose products that fit your home's style.
Will my project go to the Architectural Review and Planning Board?
Only if it uses elements the town discourages. Every exterior change starts with a pre-application meeting with staff, and we bring the product details to it.
