ES Windows Custom & Geometric Windows in Pompano Beach: What to Know First
We install, replace, and service ES Windows custom and geometric units across Pompano Beach, and we do it as an independent ES Windows service provider, not a manufacturer rep. Most custom shape work runs two to four weeks from signed quote to finished install, depending on the geometry and whether the frame needs rebuilding. Pricing lands where honest custom work lands: a true curved-top ES Windows unit is not a $400 drop-in, but it also should never carry a mystery surcharge. This page is for Pompano Beach homeowners who own ES Windows and need a shaped opening done right, or who have an arched, angled, or oversized ES unit that has failed and want it fixed without losing the line’s clean sightlines. Call (863) 591-8673 and a live person answers.
How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
ES Windows builds a disciplined aluminum and thermally broken frame that holds up well in South Florida, but custom and geometric units live and die by the quality of the perimeter seal and the accuracy of the template. These are the failures we see most in Pompano Beach, and what we do about them:
- Arched and radius units losing seal at the crown. The ES Windows fixed radius and arch-top lines put real stress at the apex of the curve, especially on west-facing walls in the Pompano Beach Highlands where afternoon heat cycles daily. When the glazing bead starts to separate at the crown, water gets behind the frame and the thermal break begins to fail. We remove the unit, re-bed the glass on fresh setting blocks, and re-seal the crown with a commercial-grade glazing compound rated for constant UV. Then we register both warranty layers in writing.
- Custom trapezoid and angle windows with hinge alignment drift. Any operable geometric window, including ES Windows casement and awning units cut to non-square openings, can drift over time as the foundation settles. A half-degree shift at the sill turns into a visible gap at the corner within two or three years. We re-shim the frame, reset the hinge packs, and torque the fasteners to spec, not to feel.
- Oversized fixed units with insulating glass seal fogging. ES Windows uses a Spacerbar system on many insulating units, and on very large geometric panes, the added weight against the spacer can accelerate seal failure. We see this more often on ocean-facing rooms in Pompano Beach, where salt air works the perimeter seal constantly. When the glass is fogged, we replace the IGU with a unit matched to the original lite dimensions and glazing spec. We do not drill fogged glass and call it fixed.
- Geometric picture windows sitting in rotted wood bucks. ES Windows aluminum frames are only as good as the buck they are attached to. In older Pompano Beach homes, especially the 1960s and 70s concrete block with wood bucks, we open the wall and find the buck has rotted behind a visually clean frame. A new ES unit popped into a soft buck is a call we will be making again in two years. We replace the buck, flash it properly, then set the window.
- Radius and angle units with improper drainage. Geometric windows collect water differently than rectangles. A flat-top rectangle drains to the corners. An arch drains to the spring line. If an ES Windows radius unit was set with the weep system oriented for a standard rectangle, the sill pan traps water. We re-flash and re-pitch the sill so water leaves the opening instead of pooling inside the frame.
Our ES Windows Custom & Geometric Windows Process
We run every ES Windows job the same way, whether it is a replacement for a failed arch or a full custom trapezoid over a new opening. There is no second appointment left hanging and no surprise line item on the bill.
- 1
Measure and template. We measure every opening twice, then template curved and angled openings with a physical pattern, not just a number on a tablet. A radius measured wrong by a quarter inch at the crown is a unit that will never seat right.
- 2
Parts decision. We quote manufacturer-original ES Windows components where they matter for fit and warranty, and quality aftermarket hardware only where it is equal or better. You see the line items on paper, side by side, before we order anything.
- 3
Frame prep. We pull the old unit, inspect the buck and rough opening for rot, and rebuild what needs rebuilding. Custom geometric windows fail most often because someone skipped this step.
- 4
Set and seal. We set the new ES Windows unit on fresh shim packs, torque all fasteners, flash the perimeter, and seal with a product rated for Pompano Beach’s salt and sun. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 5
Test and register. We cycle every operable sash, run a water test on the perimeter, and confirm drainage. Then we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway.
- 6
Cleanup and guarantee. We remove every scrap, walk the job with you, and hand you a written summary. Every ES Windows custom or geometric job is covered by our Done Right Promise: if it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork and no arguing.
What ES Windows Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Pompano Beach
Custom geometric work is priced by the opening, not by a flat window rate. In Pompano Beach, here is what we quote most often:
- Geometric fixed window replacement (trapezoid, triangle, angle-cut ES Windows unit): $900-$2,200 installed, depending on size, glazing, and whether the buck needs rebuilding.
- Arched or radius ES Windows unit, fixed, custom template: $1,400-$3,500 installed. True radius work costs more than segmental arches; the glass and frame are cut to a template, not a stock size.
- Oversized custom ES Windows picture window, impact-rated: $2,800-$7,000 installed. Glass size, impact rating, and structural reinforcement drive this range.
- Custom geometric operable unit (casement, awning): $1,600-$4,200 installed. Hardware and hinge engineering on a non-square opening add real cost.
What moves the price: the opening’s actual shape, impact versus non-impact glass, frame finish, whether we are rebuilding the buck, and whether a permit is required in your part of Pompano Beach. We give free estimates, in writing, with no change orders. Call (863) 591-8673.
Why Pompano Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work
Dale Kessler grew up in the Pompano Beach Highlands and spent enough summers watching salt air eat through poorly sealed frames to understand what bad glazing work actually costs a homeowner over time. We have been doing this since 2008 through a heritage of craft, and we install ES Windows the way a second-generation glazier does: slowly enough to do it once, carefully enough not to have to do it twice. If a custom ES geometric unit fails because of our workmanship within 90 days, we fix it. That is the Done Right Promise, and it is written, not implied. We are also an authorized installer for more than a dozen other lines, including PGT, CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems, so when a repair-versus-replace decision calls for a different brand, we can quote it side by side. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call (863) 591-8673 and you will talk to a person who knows what a curved window in a concrete block wall should look like when it is set true.
FAQs
We are an independent ES Windows service provider. We install, replace, and service ES Windows custom and geometric units using manufacturer-original components where fit and warranty require them, and quality aftermarket parts where they perform as well or better. We register both warranty layers in writing, durations stated, on every job. If it isn’t in writing, it isn’t a warranty.
Yes. We template the existing unit, match the glass lite dimensions and glazing spec, and order the frame finish to match your existing ES Windows installation. For older ES Windows lines with discontinued finishes, we can often match close enough that the difference is not visible from ten feet, and we will tell you honestly before we order.
Most custom ES Windows replacements run two to four weeks from signed quote to installed unit. Custom templated glass and frame extrusions are not stocked on a shelf, so the lead time is driven by the manufacturing schedule. If your opening needs a new buck or structural work, that adds one to two days on site.
If the frame is square and the glass is intact, a repair that re-beds, re-seals, and re-sets the unit is often the right call. If the thermal break has failed, the glass is fogged, or the frame has moved out of square, replacement is usually cheaper over five years than chasing leaks. We quote both options on paper and let you see the numbers side by side. Call (863) 591-8673 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.
