What makes a window an impact window?

An impact window is a complete system: laminated impact glass bonded to a strong interlayer, set in a reinforced frame and installed to an approved method. It is tested to resist windborne debris and wind pressure, and the glass is designed to stay in the frame even when it cracks.

Replacing standard windows with impact windows gives those openings permanent protection, so there are no shutters or panels to put up before a storm. Most homeowners also notice a quieter, more secure house.

Before you buy

What to know before replacing windows

  • Every opening is measured

    Sizes, existing frames and wall conditions decide which products fit, so we measure before quoting.

  • Approvals matter more than labels

    A window is only impact-rated in the sizes and installation it was approved for.

  • Permits are part of the job

    Most window replacements need a permit and an inspection, which we plan from the start.

  • Not every opening may be covered

    If some openings stay non-impact, they still need storm protection.

Questions

Questions about impact windows

Still deciding? Call (239) 789‑2802 and talk to someone local.

How long do impact windows last?

Lifespan depends on the product, frame material, exposure and maintenance. Our team can walk you through the manufacturer's warranty for the specific windows you choose.

Are impact windows energy efficient?

Impact glass can be paired with tints and energy-efficient coatings that reduce heat and glare. Results depend on the glass package, the frame and the home.

Can you replace just some of my windows?

Yes. Many homeowners replace windows in phases. Any opening left without impact protection still needs shutters or panels before a storm.

Do impact windows need special maintenance?

Keep tracks and weep holes clean, rinse salt and dirt from frames, and check seals and hardware. Follow the manufacturer's care guide to protect the warranty.

How much do impact windows cost?

Cost depends on the number and size of openings, style, frame material, glass package, brand and installation conditions. A measured estimate gives you an accurate number, and our estimates are free.
