Weston homes

We know Weston homes

Arthur Vining Davis assembled the land in the 1950s; the Indian Trace plan became Weston, and the first families arrived in 1984.

Homes from that first wave are now 40 years old, and nearly all of them answer to an association before the city.

Arvida's plan

Weston areas and what they mean for windows

  • Windmill Ranch

    First homes, 1984

    Weston's first residents moved into Windmill Ranch and Country Isles when the first homes were completed in 1984.

    For your windows: Mid-1980s homes are now old enough that original non-impact windows are common.

    City of Weston · History of the city

  • Country Isles

    1984

    Country Isles shares the 1984 start with Windmill Ranch, under the Arvida plan once called Indian Trace.

    For your windows: Association standards set frame color and style, so their approval comes before the city filing.

    City of Weston · History of the city

  • Indian Trace district

    Since 1981

    The Indian Trace Community Development District was created in 1981 to build and run water, sewer, lakes, and arterial roads.

    For your windows: Lake and canal frontage is common, and walls facing open water may need a higher pressure rating.

    City of Weston · History of the city

  • Bonaventure

    Developed separately

    Bonaventure was sold off to be developed on its own, and its development district was set up by city ordinance in 1998.

    For your windows: Older condo and villa buildings here have their own boards and specs, which we confirm first.

    City of Weston · Bonaventure Development District

  • Savanna

    2,819 homes, gated

    Savanna is Weston's largest gated community, with 2,819 homes plus 144 in the Hammocks at Savanna, bordering the Everglades preserve.

    For your windows: Savanna's community association runs an architectural review, and preserve-facing walls can see more wind.

    Savanna community association (official site) · About us

  • Weston Hills

    Tour Course, 1990

    The Club at Weston Hills has two Robert Trent Jones Jr. courses; the Tour Course was built in 1990.

    For your windows: Fairway and lake views mean wide openings, and walls facing open water can see higher design pressures.

Permits, four layers

Permit steps for a Weston home

Weston treats window and door replacement as a quick permit. Here is the order.

  1. 1

    Rated units

    Each opening is matched to a Miami-Dade NOA or HVHZ Florida approval for its size and pressure.

    FBC 2023 §1626 (HVHZ impact tests)
  2. 2

    Association approval

    Weston's neighborhoods are largely master-planned, so the HOA review comes first under §720.3035(6).

    Florida Statutes §720.3035(6) (homeowners' associations)
  3. 3

    Quick permit online

    Window and door replacement is a quick permit filed in the City of Weston ePermit Portal, with a 3–5 business day review cycle for a complete submittal.

    City of Weston · How to apply for a quick permit
  4. 4

    Building Code Services sign-off

    Weston's Building Code Services, run under contract by C.A.P. Government, inspects the work; with inspection approval recorded, the permit is closed.

Two-story Weston houses often mix rollers upstairs with tall fixed panes and wide sliders facing the lakes.

My Safe Florida Home and your wind-mitigation form

If you qualify for My Safe Florida Home, the state pays $2 for every $1 you pay, up to $10,000, after the program's free wind-mitigation visit (Fla. Stat. §215.5586). How the program works.

Impact windows and doors count as opening protection, Question 9 on the state's wind-mitigation form, OIR-B1-1802. A licensed inspector fills it out after the work, and your insurer sets the discount.

Questions

Weston impact window questions

Who handles building permits in Weston?

Weston's Building Code Services, which the city contracts to C.A.P. Government. We file there.

Is window replacement a full permit here?

It's a quick permit. Complete submissions are reviewed in about 3 to 5 business days.

Where is it filed?

In the City of Weston's ePermit Portal, which also takes fees and books inspector visits.

Who closes the permit?

Building Code Services. After the final visit and inspection approval, the permit is closed.

I'm in Windmill Ranch. Are my windows original?

Possibly. The first homes there date to 1984, before today's impact rules; we check each opening.

How many associations will review my windows?

Usually your neighborhood HOA; in Savanna, the community-wide association also has an architectural review. Under §720.3035(6), none can deny conforming units.

I'm in a Bonaventure condo. What applies?

Your condo board's specs under §718.113(5); conforming windows have to be approved.

Are hurricane windows a different product?

No. Weston owners hear both terms for the same HVHZ-approved unit.

What does a big picture window cost?

Most units are $800–$1,800 installed; a 37 by 50 inch fixed pane averages about $900.

Do you install impact doors in Weston?

Yes, including lake-facing sliders. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

Is a notice of commencement needed?

Past $5,000, §713.135 requires one; we record it.

What does the labor warranty include?

The lifetime labor warranty covers you, the original owner. It doesn't pass to a new owner if you sell. Product coverage comes from the maker.

How fast is the quote?

Normally 24–48 hours after we measure, free of charge.

The fine print

The rules

Wind and missile rules

All of Broward is in the HVHZ, with 170 mph design wind for a Risk Category II home.

  • Up to 30 feet: the large-missile test, a 9-pound 2x4 fired at 50 feet per second.
  • Above 30 feet: the small-missile test, 2-gram steel balls at 130 feet per second, and BORA Formal Interpretation #24 asks for a sealed, site-specific design.

HOAs, the notice rule, and wind ratings. Tap a topic.

Condos and HOAsMaster plans and HOAs

  • Condos follow §718.113(5): specs come from the board and may cover appearance, and a matching installation has to be approved.

  • Weston HOAs and master associations set the look, yet §720.3035(6) stops them from turning down impact windows or doors built to their specs.

  • Most Weston homes answer to a neighborhood association, and some, like Savanna, to a community-wide one too; we prepare every packet.
