Licensed & Insured — FL CBC1266857
The neighborhoods around College Park and Edgewater in Orlando include a mix of older and newer construction. Regardless of when your home was built, if your windows aren't impact-rated, you're paying more for insurance than you need to — and your home isn't protected.
Why Orlando Homeowners Are Upgrading to Impact Windows
Orlando sits squarely in Florida's hurricane corridor. While Central Florida doesn't face the same direct coastal exposure as Miami or Fort Myers, the metro area has been hit by major storms multiple times — and insurance companies haven't forgotten. Many Orlando homeowners are now receiving notices from their insurers requiring impact-rated windows or shutters as a condition of continued coverage.
The financial case is just as strong. Orlando homeowners who upgrade to impact windows typically see their homeowners insurance premiums drop significantly, often $100 to $200 per month or more once the wind mitigation discount kicks in. That's money back in your pocket every single month.
Ballistic Window and Door's team includes professionals from the window industry, general contracting, and insurance adjusting. We've helped hundreds of Central Florida homeowners navigate the process — from the first estimate to the final wind mitigation inspection that unlocks your insurance savings. We handle every permit and inspection so you don't have to worry about a thing.

Orlando Homeowners Are Overpaying on Insurance
If your Orlando home still has standard windows, your insurer is charging you a wind mitigation surcharge every single month. Most homeowners don't even realize it's there — it's just baked into your premium.
When you upgrade to impact windows, your insurer reclassifies your home's wind resistance. After a wind mitigation inspection confirms the installation, your premium drops. Orlando homeowners typically save $100 to $200 per month.
Our team includes a former insurance adjuster who knows exactly what documentation inspectors need. We don't just install windows — we make sure you capture every dollar of savings available to you.
Frequently Asked Questions — Orlando, FL
Do I need a permit for impact window installation in Orlando?+
Yes. Florida law requires a building permit for all impact window and door installations. We handle the entire permitting process for you — application, submission, and scheduling the final inspection with your local building department.
What impact window brands do you install in Orlando?+
We install premium impact window brands that carry full Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA certification. During your free in-home inspection, we'll recommend the best product for your home's specific needs, window sizes, and budget. Every brand we carry meets the highest testing standards in the industry.
What is the process from start to finish?+
Step one: free in-home inspection where we measure every opening and provide a quote. Step two: product selection and permitting. Step three: professional installation (one to three days for most homes). Step four: final building inspection and insurance documentation for your wind mitigation discount.
Are your impact windows Miami-Dade NOA certified?+
Yes. Every impact window and door we install carries Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) certification — the most rigorous impact testing standard in the country. This ensures your Orlando installation qualifies for the maximum wind mitigation insurance discount.
What happens if an impact window cracks during a storm?+
Impact windows use laminated glass with an interlayer that holds the glass together even after a direct hit from flying debris. The window may crack, but it stays sealed in the frame — maintaining your home's building envelope and preventing the pressure change that causes catastrophic roof failures.
Do impact windows reduce energy bills in Orlando?+
Yes, significantly. Impact windows provide far better insulation than standard single-pane windows. Orlando homeowners typically see a 10 to 25 percent reduction in cooling costs because impact glass blocks more heat transfer and UV radiation. This is on top of your insurance savings.
How much do impact windows cost in Orlando, FL?+
Impact window pricing depends on your home's window count, sizes, and the product line you choose. Most Florida homeowners invest between $800 and $1,400 per window installed. We provide a detailed, transparent quote during your free in-home inspection at your College Park or Orlando home — no hidden fees, no pressure.
