Working in Boca Raton
What we see in Boca Raton homes.
Boca Raton runs from the barrier island and Intracoastal east side to large master-planned communities further west. Many of the city’s homes were built before today’s impact standards, which is why window and door replacement is one of the most common upgrades we’re asked about here.
Boca permits this work through its own Development Services building division, and the submittal is more detailed than most homeowners expect. The city’s single-family window, door and shutter checklist asks for a window and door schedule, a windload design form, product approvals or Notices of Acceptance, plans and a location sketch: every opening documented on its own terms rather than one line reading ’windows’. Assembling that package is part of the job, not an extra.
One item catches people out. A certified Notice of Commencement is required on building permits valued over $5,000, which covers most whole-home projects. It has to be recorded before work starts, so we build the step into the schedule instead of discovering it on install day.
If you live in a condominium or any multi-family building, your project follows a different city checklist, and that one adds items the single-family list does not have, including a fire building application, a beach area lighting affidavit for properties in the beach zone, and HOA approval as a listed required document rather than a neighborly courtesy. East Boca has a great many buildings in exactly that category, so it is worth knowing which list your project falls under before anyone quotes you a timeline.
A practical note for Boca homeowners generally: many communities have HOA or architectural review requirements covering frame colors, grid patterns and glass tint. We prepare the product details those reviews typically ask for, so approval paperwork does not stall your project.
Code context for Palm Beach County
This area falls within Florida’s wind-borne debris region, so glazed openings must be protected with approved impact-rated products or shutters under the Florida Building Code. We match each opening to a product with the right Florida product approval for your location and exposure.

Boca Raton questions
Asked by Boca Raton homeowners
Will my HOA need to approve new impact windows?
Many Boca Raton communities do ask for architectural review before exterior changes. We provide the product specifications, colors and drawings the review typically requires, and we build that step into your project timeline so it isn’t a surprise. For condominium and multi-family buildings it goes further: the city’s own checklist for those projects lists HOA approval as a required submittal document.
What does Boca Raton actually require to permit new windows?
For a single-family home the city’s checklist asks for a submittal form, the building application, an authorized agent form and a window and door schedule, plus your contract, the product approvals or Notices of Acceptance, a windload design form, plans and a location sketch. Applications run through the city’s online systems: one for applying, paying and scheduling inspections, another for uploading documents to plan review. We prepare and submit all of it.
I own a condo near the beach. Is anything different?
Yes. Multi-family and commercial projects follow a separate city checklist that adds a fire building application, HOA approval as a required document, and a beach area lighting affidavit for properties in the beach zone. Association scheduling rules usually shape the install sequence too. None of it is difficult, but it is a different package and a different timeline than a single-family house across town.
What is a Notice of Commencement, and will I need one?
It is a document recorded before work begins on a permitted job. Boca requires a certified Notice of Commencement on building permits valued over $5,000, which most whole-home window and door projects exceed. We tell you up front whether yours crosses that line so the recording happens on schedule rather than holding up your start date.
Do I need a permit to replace windows and doors in Boca Raton?
Yes. Window and door replacement is permitted work in Florida. We prepare the permit package and coordinate the inspection as part of the project, so you aren’t chasing paperwork.
Can you match the look of my existing windows?
Usually, yes. Impact products come in a range of frame colors, grid layouts and glass options, and during the estimate we’ll show you configurations that keep your home’s current character.
We are near the water. Does salt air change what you recommend?
It can. For homes close to the ocean or Intracoastal we pay extra attention to frame materials and hardware finishes, and we’ll explain the trade-offs between the options during your estimate.
