Who We Are

Ed Winslow founded Winslow Windows & Doors in 2011, and his name has been on the truck ever since. Ed grew up just off Hialeah Drive, close enough to Westgate that he still thinks of the neighborhood as his backyard. He learned the trade at Miami Lakes Educational Center, where an instructor drilled into him that a well-fitted window saves a family more money in a year than almost any other home upgrade. That lesson stuck. For the better part of two decades, Ed has measured, installed, and trouble-shooted windows and doors across Westgate and the surrounding communities.

We’re an independent ES Windows service provider - not an authorized dealer, not a factory rep. That distinction matters. When we tell you an ES Windows unit needs a roller replacement instead of a full sash swap, that’s a technical judgment based on what we see in the frame. It’s not a script from a call center.

Why Trust Winslow Windows & Doors for Your ES Windows Windows & Doors?

ES Windows builds Impact Windows services with impact-rated aluminum and vinyl products engineered for Florida’s coastal market. They’re solid units when installed correctly. But every brand has quirks, and ES Windows is no exception. The trick isn’t knowing the brand brochure - it’s knowing what fails first in a specific climate, on a specific housing stock, after a specific number of years. That’s knowledge you only get by working on hundreds of units across the same few square miles, year after year.

Our technicians work on ES Windows Impact Series, 9000 Series, Horizontal Roller Series, and Casement/Awning Series units regularly. We maintain documentation on ES Windows hinge geometry, roller systems, and sealing profiles. We know which screws strip first on a heavy impact panel, which gasket corners flatten in Westgate’s humidity, and which track debris causes the most binding. That institutional knowledge doesn’t come from a training video. It comes from pulling our service van onto Westgate streets and doing the work.

And because Ed’s name is on the business, every job carries the Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. That’s a standard of accountability written into every job.

Common ES Windows Windows & Doors Problems We Fix in Westgate

Westgate’s 1950s-1970s concrete block ranch homes present a specific set of challenges for ES Windows units. The salt-laden humidity, constant wind load cycling, and original narrow rough openings all contribute to predictable failure patterns. Here’s what we actually see:

• Roller wheel degradation on Horizontal Roller Series units. ES Windows horizontal rollers are workhorses, but Westgate’s salt air gets into the track, packs into the wheel bearings, and seizes them. The symptom is a slider that feels like it’s dragging a bag of cement. The real cause is corroded roller wheels, not a bent track. We pull the sash, clean the track, replace the rollers, and the panel glides again.
• Sagging impact-rated panels on out-swing casement units. ES Windows impact casements are heavy - layered glass, reinforced frames, multi-point locking. When the factory hinge screws are undersized or the frame gets stressed by repeated wind load cycles, the panel sags. The door starts scraping the threshold, and the locking points stop aligning. We address the root cause with properly sized fasteners and hinge adjustments, not by forcing the panel back into place.
• Compression gasket flattening at casement and awning corners. Rubber gaskets lose their memory in Westgate’s heat and humidity. The corners flatten first, which creates a small but persistent air leak and, in heavy rain, a water stain along the interior sill. Most homeowners assume the window is defective. It’s usually a $20 gasket replacement.
• Corrosion pitting on aluminum frames at weld seams and screw penetrations. Sitting 10-12 miles inland doesn’t protect aluminum from salt spray - it just slows the process slightly. We regularly see pitting at the seams, especially on older ES Windows aluminum units that were never treated for coastal exposure. If the frame is structurally sound, we clean, treat, and reseal. If the corrosion has gone through, replacement is the only honest answer.
• Track binding from sand and debris accumulation. Westgate isn’t on the beach, but wind blows sand and grit into every horizontal track. ES Windows rollers don’t tolerate abrasive debris well. Regular track cleaning and roller inspection adds years to the hardware. We show every homeowner what to look for.

ES Windows Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach

We use OEM ES Windows parts for critical components - rollers, hinges, locking mechanisms, balance systems - whenever those parts are available and reasonably priced. For discontinued lines or parts on long factory backorder, we source high-quality aftermarket equivalents that meet or exceed the original spec. A roller is a roller until it isn’t; we don’t gamble with cheap castings on a $4,000 impact door.

Our stance on repair versus replacement is straightforward. We repair hardware and seals when the frame is structurally sound. We recommend full replacement when the frame has rusted through, is no longer square, or doesn’t meet current Florida Building Code impact standards. Pressure is never part of the conversation. You get a straight answer, and you decide.

We maintain a local stock of commonly requested ES Windows parts for faster turnaround in Westgate - meaning less waiting on factory lead times and more jobs finished same-week. If you’re not sure what’s wrong, call (561) 468-6136 and describe the symptom. We’ll give you an honest read before we ever set foot in your home.

Last Summer at a Westgate Condo

Last summer our crew addressed an ES Windows Horizontal Roller Series unit in a Westgate condo where the sliding panel had become nearly impossible to open. We removed the sash, cleaned out packed salt and sand from the track, identified two seized original roller wheels, and replaced them with OEM-compatible rollers. We also adjusted the interlock and replaced the worn pile weatherstrip, restoring smooth operation and a tight seal before the next storm season. Total job time: under three hours. The homeowner had been fighting that door for two years.

Our ES Windows Service Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Diagnosis on site. We inspect the entire unit - frame, sash, rollers, hinges, gaskets, locking hardware - and identify exactly what’s failing and why. You get a written diagnosis with photos, not a verbal shrug.
2. 2
   Repair or replacement recommendation. We explain your options in plain language, including part types, labor scope, and whether repair is worth the investment or replacement makes more sense. No pressure, no upselling.
3. 3
   Expert repair or installation. We use OEM or spec-equivalent parts, re-shim and re-square where needed, and torque every fastener to spec. For impact units, we verify anchors meet current Palm Beach County windborne-debris-region requirements.
4. 4
   Testing and verification. Every unit gets a full operation test - open, close, lock, seal. For impact installations, we check for squareness, deflection, and proper seal compression.
5. 5
   Done Right Promise activation. Before we leave, we walk you through what we did and what to expect going forward. If anything isn’t right, the Done Right Promise means we come back. That’s Ed’s word.
