Canal homes by the inlet

Impact windows in Lighthouse Point, FL

Most of Lighthouse Point is built on canals dug in the 1950s and 1960s. We replace original windows and doors on those waterfront homes with impact units built for Broward's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.

What Lighthouse Point checks

Lighthouse Point handles permits through its Building and Zoning office and the SmartGov online portal. The city's permit list is direct: you need a permit to repair, replace, or install windows, and to remove a window and fill in the opening. Door repair or replacement and hurricane shutters need permits too. Because the vast majority of the city sits on canals dug in the 1950s and 1960s, and the Hillsboro Inlet gives boats direct ocean access, many homes have a waterfront side that sees more wind. We spec design pressures for that exposure and file the permit in SmartGov.

Lighthouse Point questions

Local permitting, HOA rules, and the right ratings, we handle it all.

Call (954) 884-8224
Do I need a permit to fill in an old window opening?

Yes. Lighthouse Point's permit list includes removing a window and filling in the opening, as well as repairing, replacing, or installing windows.

My home is on a canal. Do I need a higher rating?

Waterfront sides usually see more wind with less in the way. We size each window to the design pressure for your home's exposure.

Do you file in SmartGov?

Yes. We file and track your Lighthouse Point permit online and schedule inspections.

Will impact windows lower my insurance in Lighthouse Point?

Impact windows and doors installed to code may qualify for wind-mitigation credits. We give you the product approvals and final inspection paperwork your insurer asks for. Your carrier decides any discount.

Do you install impact doors too?

Yes. Door replacement needs its own permit in Lighthouse Point, and we can include front, French, and sliding doors in the same project.
