We're based just south in Lake Mary and have been serving Sanford homeowners since 1996. Historic Sanford homes are a specialty — we understand the character and construction of older Central Florida homes.
Sanford's historic downtown and surrounding neighborhoods are home to some of the oldest housing stock in Seminole County. Many of those homes still have original single-pane windows that are decades past their prime — letting in Florida's heat year-round and offering almost no protection during storm season.
Colonial Window & Door has been working in Sanford since 1996. We're family-owned and based in Lake Mary — a short drive away. Tom handles every estimate personally, and Tom's trusted, long-time crew handles every installation. We know how to work carefully in older homes where the framing and rough openings may not be perfectly square.
Older Sanford homes frequently still have single-pane glass that offers almost no thermal barrier. Low-E glass with Argon fill makes a real difference — your AC doesn't have to fight the sun through your windows all day.
Decades of Florida humidity warp wood frames and break down insulating seals. Fogging between panes means the seal is gone. Modern vinyl frames won't rot, warp, or need repainting.
Older windows weren't built to today's standards for wind and water resistance. Properly installed replacement windows reduce the risk of water infiltration when storms come through.
Energy Star-rated replacement windows reduce the thermal load on your HVAC system. In Florida's long cooling season, that adds up noticeably over the course of a year.
We carry window styles that complement Sanford's historic architecture — from simple double-hung profiles to more decorative grid patterns that match the character of older homes.
Modern dual-pane windows significantly reduce outside noise. Whether you're near the airport flight path or a busy road, you'll notice the difference immediately.
We install every major window style and carry both Simonton and PlyGem product lines. All windows are custom-measured and factory-ordered for your home's exact openings.
We're not a franchise or a big-box operation. We're a small, focused company that has been doing this work in this community for a long time.
Tom will come to your home, measure every window and door opening, walk you through your options, and give you a firm price. No pressure, no obligation — just a straight answer from someone who's been doing this work in Sanford for nearly 30 years.
