What affects the price
When you look at the price of impact windows, the biggest factor is usually the size and type of your window openings. Custom shapes, specific frame materials like aluminum or vinyl, and the thickness of the laminated glass will shift the total significantly. You also have to consider the installation process; replacing a window in a high-rise condo is much different than a ground-floor home. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Summer heat makes the energy efficiency of impact windows very noticeable. Old, leaky windows often let the cool air from your AC escape, driving up your utility bills. New impact glass helps hold that cool air inside, keeping your living space comfortable even when the sun is at its strongest.
Frequently asked in Lexington-Fayette
How much does one impact window cost?
What is an impact window?
An impact window is a window constructed with a strong, laminated glass that resists breakage from high winds and impacts. It typically features multiple layers of glass bonded with a strong interlayer, similar to safety glass in vehicles. The reinforced frame also contributes to its enhanced durability.
What are the drawbacks of impact windows?
A primary consideration is the higher initial cost compared to standard windows. Some homeowners might also find that the layered glass can subtly alter the clarity of the view. However, the significant increase in security, durability, and potential for reduced insurance premiums often make them a worthwhile investment.
What is the highest rated impact window?
The highest-rated impact windows are those that meet or exceed stringent building codes and testing standards for wind resistance and impact protection. These ratings are established through rigorous testing simulating severe weather conditions. A professional can help you identify the best-rated options for your Lexington-Fayette home.
