Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
Full-frame replacement removes the existing window frame and sash so the opening can be assessed. Agree on the removal extent, selected installation system, water-management details and finishing responsibilities before work begins. Ask how newly exposed damage would be documented and how any additional repair would be agreed. The method and scope depend on the opening and surrounding construction; this page does not establish that your property needs full-frame work.
What may be involved
- complete window unit
- sill pan
- flashing membrane
- shims
- low-expansion insulation
- sealant
- interior and exterior trim
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / Casselberry
Local context
Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a public licence search covering the professions and businesses the department regulates, so a state licence number quoted for this work can be checked there. Ask separately which approved product is being quoted and whether the manufacturer's installation details will be on site for the inspection, since local building departments generally ask to see both.
Source ↗Planning your work
A Florida law effective 1 July 2026 requires local governments to exempt work on single-family residential property valued at $7,500 or less from the building permit requirement, but the exemption excludes any electrical, plumbing, structural, mechanical or gas work and does not apply in flood hazard areas. Much window and exterior door work falls into one of those excluded categories, so the exemption is narrower than it first reads. Casselberry is in Seminole County; confirm with the county or city building department which office reviews the address and what it now asks for.
