We Live Here — St. Petersburg Is Our Home
Ballistic Window and Door's office is at 4668 50th Avenue N in St. Petersburg. This isn't a company that flies in from out of state to do hurricane work — we live and work in Pinellas County year-round. When a storm threatens our area, we're protecting the same community our families live in.
St. Petersburg's peninsula geography means homes here are surrounded by water on three sides — Tampa Bay to the west, the Gulf to the southwest, and Boca Ciega Bay to the south. That exposure drives up insurance premiums and makes impact windows one of the smartest investments a Pinellas County homeowner can make.
Because we're local, we know the Pinellas County building department, we know the inspection process, and we know the insurance landscape here better than any outside contractor ever could. That local knowledge means your installation goes smoothly from start to finish.

Learn More →Pinellas County Insurance Savings Are Substantial
Pinellas County homeowners pay elevated wind insurance premiums because of the peninsula's exposure to Gulf storms. Every month without impact windows is another month of paying a surcharge you don't need to pay.
After installing impact windows and completing a wind mitigation inspection, St. Petersburg homeowners typically see their insurance drop by $100 to $200 per month. That's real money back in your pocket — month after month, year after year.
Why St. Petersburg Homeowners Are Investing in Impact Windows
St. Petersburg's peninsula location makes it one of the most wind-exposed cities in the Tampa Bay area. Surrounded by water on three sides, St. Pete homeowners face elevated storm surge and wind risk every hurricane season — and their insurance premiums reflect that reality. Many homeowners in Pinellas County are paying wind mitigation surcharges every single month because their homes still have standard windows.
Impact windows eliminate that surcharge. St. Pete homeowners who upgrade typically see their insurance premiums drop by $100 to $200 per month or more after a wind mitigation inspection confirms the upgrade. Over five to ten years, the insurance savings alone often cover a significant portion of the installation cost.
As a St. Petersburg-based company, Ballistic Window and Door knows Pinellas County inside and out. We're licensed, we pull every permit, and we have a former insurance adjuster on our team who makes sure your wind mitigation inspection goes smoothly and you capture every dollar of savings available to you.
Frequently Asked Questions — St. Petersburg, FL
What happens if an impact window breaks during a storm?+
Impact windows are designed not to shatter. The laminated interlayer holds the glass together even after a direct hit from flying debris. The window may crack, but it stays in the frame and maintains your home's envelope — which is what prevents the catastrophic pressure buildup that blows off roofs.
How do I know if my current windows are impact-rated?+
Impact windows have a permanent etching on the glass that includes the manufacturer, 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, we'll check every window and let you know exactly where you stand.
How long does impact window installation take in St. Petersburg?+
Most single-family homes with 10 to 20 windows are completed in one to three days. The permitting process adds one to two weeks before installation begins. We handle all permitting and inspections for Pinellas County homes.
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 Disston Heights home, we check every window.
What is the warranty on your impact windows?+
Impact windows come with both a manufacturer warranty (covering the product itself) and our workmanship warranty (covering the installation). Specific terms vary by product line — we go over all warranty details during your consultation.
Can I replace just some of my windows in St. Petersburg?+
You can do a partial installation. Many St. Petersburg homeowners start with the most vulnerable openings — large picture windows, sliding glass doors, and windows facing the prevailing wind direction. However, the full wind mitigation insurance discount typically requires all openings to be impact-rated.
How much do impact windows cost in St. Petersburg, 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 Disston Heights or St. Petersburg home — no hidden fees, no pressure.
