Tell Us About Your Impact Window Project
Share your property address, the number of windows and any known damage. Select “Windows and Doors” and tell us you are asking about impact-resistant windows.
- PLAN EACH OPENING
The Glass Is Only One Part of the Window
An impact-resistant window is a tested system. The glass, frame and connections work together.
Before choosing a window, check the documents for its exact model and size. The glass option and installation method also need to suit the opening.
A product name alone does not tell you where or how that window can be used.
Which Openings Are You Planning to Change?
Older Windows in an Existing Home
Start with the windows you have. Note which ones are hard to open, damaged or due for replacement.
The wall around each window also needs a review. The new unit needs a sound place to attach.
Several Windows Across the House
List the openings by room. This helps keep sizes, styles and product choices clear.
If the work will happen in phases, discuss how each phase fits the wider project.
Windows for an Addition
Share the plans and the stage of construction. Window sizes and attachment details should fit the approved design.
Do this before ordering units.
A Window That Leaks
Water near a window may involve the frame, seals or surrounding wall.
Changing the glass alone may leave the cause in place. Describe where water appears and when you first noticed it.
- PRODUCT APPROVALS
Match the Product Documents to the Opening
Ask to see the approval documents for the proposed window.
These should help identify:
Model and Size
The window model and permitted sizes.
Glass Option
The glass type and thickness.
Wind Pressures
The required wind-pressure ratings.
Attachment Details
The approved fasteners and attachment details.
Limits on Use
Any limits on use.
Mullions and Connections
The mullions and connections, if needed.
A mullion is a part that joins or supports window units.
Miami-Dade provides a product approval search. Use the documents for the actual product being proposed. Review Miami-Dade product approval information.
- LOCAL PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
Check the Permit Path Before Ordering
A Miami mailing address does not tell you which building department reviews the work. Confirm the jurisdiction for your property.
The permit scope may differ when replacing a window in the same opening, changing an opening or adding a new one.
Before work begins, know which documents and inspections apply.
For buildings that meet the threshold-building definition, added inspection requirements may apply. Confirm these with the building department and design professional.
- COMPARE THE SCOPE
Ask What the Written Estimate Includes
Two proposals may cover different work.
Ask for a clear description of:
- The number and location of windows.
- The model, frame and glass options.
- Removal of existing windows.
- Attachment and sealing work.
- Work around interior and exterior edges.
- Debris removal.
- Permit and inspection responsibilities.
- Any items priced separately.
Also ask how hidden damage will be reviewed. The full condition around an old frame may only become clear after removal.
Added work and price changes should be discussed before that work proceeds.
- PROJECT PRICING
What Affects the Project Price?
Count and Product Choices
Window count is one factor. Sizes, glass choices, frame options and site access also affect the scope.
Opening Changes
A larger opening or a change to the wall can require different work from a replacement in the same opening.
Existing Conditions
Repairs around old frames may add work too.
Photos and Measurements
Share photos and the property address to start the discussion. Final measurements and site conditions help define the proposal.

- BEFORE CHOOSING IMPACT WINDOWS
Questions Before Choosing Impact Windows
No. Impact resistance relates to the tested window system and its approved use. The rest of the home and the installation also matter. Follow local storm and evacuation guidance.
They may be an option. The opening size, wall condition, product documents and project requirements need to be reviewed before choosing a system.
Window installation and replacement generally require a permit. The documents and inspections depend on the property, jurisdiction and scope of work. Confirm these before ordering.
No. Impact resistance and energy performance describe different features. Review the ratings for the exact window and glass option being proposed.
Do not assume a discount. Ask your insurer which products, protection measures and records it requires. Eligibility and savings depend on the policy and property.
