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.
About this service
The cost to install impact windows depends on several variables, such as the size of your window openings, the frame material chosen, and the complexity of the labor required for your specific property. Generally, homeowners can expect project costs to be typically in the thousands, but many factors shift the final total. Since every home has different structural needs, we avoid guessing. We provide 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 Orlando
How much does one impact window cost?
The cost of a single impact window in Orlando varies based on its size, material, and specific impact rating. Larger windows or those with advanced features will naturally command a higher price. A personalized quote is the most accurate way to determine the cost for your home.
What is an impact window?
An impact window features a strong, laminated interlayer between two panes of glass, similar to a car windshield. This construction makes it highly resistant to shattering from high winds and impacts from flying debris. They are a critical upgrade for homes in hurricane-prone areas.
What are the drawbacks of impact windows?
Some potential drawbacks include a higher initial investment compared to standard windows and they can be heavier. The interlayer might also cause a slight tint in the glass. However, the enhanced security and protection against severe weather often make these points negligible.
What is the highest rated impact window?
The 'highest rated' impact window is generally determined by its ability to pass stringent testing standards, such as those set by ASTM International. Discussing your specific needs with a qualified professional will help identify options that meet the highest performance criteria for your Orlando home.
What is the average cost of hurricane windows?
Do hurricane impact windows really work?
Yes, hurricane impact windows are designed and tested to withstand severe weather conditions, including high winds and impacts from debris. They are a proven method for significantly reducing the risk of window breakage and protecting your home's interior.
