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.

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.
Frequently Asked Questions — Orlando, FL
How much do impact windows cost in Orlando, FL?+
Impact window pricing depends on window count, size, style, and product line. Most Central Florida homeowners invest between $800 and $1,400 per window installed. We provide detailed, transparent quotes during your free in-home inspection — no hidden fees, no pressure.
Will impact windows reduce my energy bills in Orlando?+
Yes. Impact windows provide significantly better insulation than standard single-pane windows. Central Florida homeowners typically see a 10 to 25 percent reduction in cooling costs because impact glass blocks more heat transfer and UV radiation. The energy savings are on top of your insurance discount.
Do you work on condos and townhomes in Orlando?+
Yes. We work with individual condo owners and HOA boards throughout Orange County. For condos, we coordinate with your association's architectural review process and ensure all products meet both Florida Building Code and your HOA's requirements.
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.
Do I need a permit for impact windows in Orange County?+
Yes. Florida law requires a building permit for all impact window and door installations. We handle the entire permitting process with Orange County — application, documentation, and scheduling the final building inspection. You don't visit any office or fill out any forms.
How do impact windows compare to hurricane shutters?+
Hurricane shutters must be manually deployed before each storm and removed afterward. Impact windows provide permanent, always-on protection with no seasonal labor. They also provide year-round benefits including noise reduction, energy savings, and UV protection. Most Florida insurers offer a bigger discount for impact windows than for shutters.
How do I know if my current windows are impact-rated?+
Impact windows have a permanent etching on the glass with the manufacturer name, product line, and testing certification numbers. If your windows don't have this etching, they're almost certainly not impact-rated. During our free inspection of your UCF Area home, we check every window.
