Coconut Grove Miami

This custom modern residence in Coconut Grove—one of Miami’s most coveted, tree-canopied neighborhoods—required a discreet, code-compliant upgrade of all exterior openings. The owner engaged TISW CORP to engineer and install impact windows and large-format sliding door systems, integrate new sealant/waterproofing, and verify performance while preserving the home’s clean, minimalist sightlines and indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

Client Goals

Achieve Miami-Dade / Florida Building Code compliance (impact, pressure, water).
Maintain frameless-look aesthetics with slim profiles and high glass clarity.
Improve comfort: noise reduction, solar control, and airtight/watertight performance.
Deliver a white-glove, low-disruption install that protects finishes and landscaping.

Challenges & Our Solutions

Challenges

Coastal exposure (wind-driven rain, salt air) on large, west/south-facing elevations.
Oversized sliders and picture windows demanding engineered handling and exact reveals.
Tight site logistics (drive court, crane/smart-lift access, staging) in a dense residential block.
Interface detailing at balconies, raised thresholds, and stucco/stone transitions.

Our Solution

Engineering & Submittals: Verified design pressures, Miami-Dade NOAs, shop drawings; coordinated HOA/ARB package.
Impact Systems: Slim-profile aluminum frames with laminated glass and low-E/solar-control options; corrosion-resistant hardware and anchorage.
Water Management: New perimeter joint design, correctly sized backer rod, premium sealants, sill-pan and weep strategies, and balcony/threshold interface detailing.
White-Glove Execution: Protection of stone/millwork, dust & noise controls, room-by-room phasing, daily updates to the owner’s team.
QA & Closeout: Targeted hose/chamber testing (where specified), punch-list control, inspection sign-offs, warranties, and a tailored service plan.
