ES Windows Construction in Fort Lauderdale, FL | Sawyer Remodel Fort Lauderdale
We provide independent ES Windows construction service across Fort Lauderdale, from Lauderdale Manors to Las Olas Isles. The one thing that makes our ES Windows work here different is this: we know exactly how salt air eats aluminum frames and which specific components fail first on coastal homes, so we fix the right problem the first time. Our crews handle everything from corroded sashes on mid-century ranches to full impact-rated replacements on waterfront estates. Call (754) 354-7423 for a free estimate, and we’ll put the price in writing before any work starts.
Why Fort Lauderdale Residents Choose Us for ES Windows Service
ES Windows builds a solid extruded-aluminum product, but Fort Lauderdale tests every window harder than most places in the country. Our owner, Luca Romano, has spent the past several years working ES Windows installations and repairs across this city, including some tight older builds near Las Olas Boulevard that required real problem-solving, not a template. We understand how ES6500 single-hungs, ES7000 casements, and ES8000 sliders behave after a few hurricane seasons. We stock the rollers, balances, and weatherstripping that fail most often here, so we’re not waiting on a parts truck from another state. And every job runs under The Relay Visibility Guarantee: a live arrival time, photo updates before and after, and a written price before a single tool is picked up.
Styles & brands we work with
Common ES Windows Construction Problems We Solve in Fort Lauderdale
- Salt-corroded aluminum frames on non-impact ES Windows. Within a mile of the Intracoastal, the salt aerosol pits raw aluminum fast. We see seized sashes on ES6500 units where the frame has swollen just enough that the window won’t open without a fight. We clean, treat, and replace the corroded components, or recommend an impact-rated upgrade if the frame is too far gone.
- Failed nylon rollers on ES7000 sliding doors. Sand and salt work their way into the roller tracks over time. That’s why so many Fort Lauderdale sliding doors grind or stick after a storm. We replace the rollers with marine-grade components that hold up better in this environment.
- Delaminated laminated glass in older impact units. After repeated tropical storm cycles, the interlayer inside laminated glass can start to separate, especially on west-facing elevations that get hammered by afternoon sun. We replace the glass with current ES impact-rated glazing that meets Miami-Dade County product approvals.
- Warped extruded aluminum frames on wide ES8000 patio sliders. Concrete-block homes settle over the decades, and a wide slider frame takes that movement hard. In Fort Lauderdale’s 1950s and 60s ranches, we regularly see ES8000 frames that have twisted enough to break the weather seal. The work either holds up or it doesn’t – we make sure it does.
- Water intrusion at the window-to-wall connection. Fort Lauderdale’s heavy summer rains expose any gap in flashing or sealant. When the water shows up around an ES window frame, the fix often involves the window and the surrounding wall. We repair the intrusion point and replace any rotted trim before it spreads.
ES Windows Service in Fort Lauderdale: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s a fact that most brand pages won’t tell you: homes on the barrier island side of the Intracoastal, like those on Riviera Isle or Idlewyld, see aluminum pitting on ES Windows up to three times faster than homes just two miles inland near Lauderdale Manors. The constant salt aerosol from the ocean breeze settles on the frames and eats through the finish. That means an ES6500 window that looks fine after five years in Lauderdale Manors might be pitted and seized after two on the island. We inspect the specific corrosion pattern before recommending a repair, because replacing hardware on a frame that’s already structurally compromised is just throwing money at a losing battle. In many island homes, the smarter move is a full swap to current ES impact-rated casements or fixed picture windows with marine-grade finishes.

FAQs – ES Windows Construction in Fort Lauderdale
Yes, and here’s the honest answer: any aluminum window near salt water needs more attention than the same window inland. ES Windows come with a factory finish, but within a mile of the Intracoastal, that finish gets pitted by salt aerosol far faster. We recommend marine-grade coatings on replacement hardware, regular cleaning of the frame tracks, and an annual inspection of the weatherstripping on the ocean-facing side. If your frames are already pitting, call (754) 354-7423 and we’ll tell you whether it’s a clean-and-treat situation or a replacement.
Many ES Windows lines, including the ES7000 casement series, are impact-rated and carry Miami-Dade County product approvals, which is what Fort Lauderdale’s building department looks for. But not every ES Windows product is impact-rated, especially older ES6500 single-hungs sold decades ago. If your home still has original non-impact units, we can replace them with current impact-rated ES Windows that meet Florida Building Code wind-load requirements. Call (754) 354-7423 for a free assessment.
Sometimes, yes. If the sash is corroded but the frame is still sound, we can order a replacement sash or rebuild the existing one with new balances and weatherstripping. If the frame itself is pitted and swollen, replacing just the sash won’t fix the problem. On a 1960s ranch in Lauderdale Manors, we found original ES7000 casements with severe frame corrosion on the ocean-facing side; the sashes wouldn’t crank closed. We replaced the corroded hardware with marine-grade aftermarket operators and installed new ES impact-rated casements on the front elevation. Bring a photo and call us – we’ll tell you which path makes sense.
Sand and salt get into the roller track, the nylon rollers wear down, and the door starts dragging on the track. It’s the most common ES8000 issue we see in Fort Lauderdale. We replace the failed rollers with marine-grade components and clean the track channel so the door glides again. If the frame itself has warped from settling, that’s a bigger job and usually calls for a replacement. Call (754) 354-7423 and we’ll diagnose it on-site – estimates are free.
Current ES Windows with low-E glazing and thermal breaks typically meet Florida’s energy code for new construction and additions. The catch is older ES Windows units, which were built before modern efficiency standards and won’t pass if you’re doing a permitted addition. When we handle a window replacement as part of an addition or whole-home renovation in Fort Lauderdale, we specify current ES Windows products that pass both the energy code and wind-mitigation requirements. For larger projects, many homeowners also explore our General Contractor in Fort Lauderdale services to coordinate the full scope of work. Call (754) 354-7423 for an exact quote on your project.
