What affects the price
The final price for impact windows depends on several variables. The biggest factor is the size and type of your window frames, along with the specific glass thickness required for your local building codes. Opting for custom shapes or specialized tints also shifts the total. Installation complexity matters too; if your existing frames are damaged or if the project requires extra structural support, labor costs will increase. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
PGT is a well-known brand, but you won't find a one-size-fits-all price list because windows are custom-manufactured for your home's specific measurements. The final cost depends on the series you select, the glass thickness, and the hardware upgrades you prefer. Since each installation is tailored to the building codes of your area, we calculate your total based on the specific products requested. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Summer heat puts a massive strain on air conditioning systems. Impact windows help manage indoor temperatures by blocking out intense solar heat, which means your cooling system does not have to work nearly as hard. This efficiency is a huge benefit during the hottest months, helping you maintain a cool home without excessive energy waste.

What are storm windows and how do they compare to impact windows?
Storm windows are typically secondary window coverings installed over existing primary windows to provide an additional layer of protection against severe weather. While they offer some defense, impact windows are a more integrated and robust solution. Impact windows are designed as primary window replacements, featuring laminated glass and reinforced frames engineered to withstand direct high winds and projectile impacts, preventing the window from shattering. Storm windows might offer a more temporary or less comprehensive defense compared to the permanent, high-performance protection of impact windows.
