New York's diverse climate presents challenges for homes, including strong winds from coastal storms and heavy snowfall during winter months. Our service begins with a detailed assessment of your current windows and their exposure to these elements. We then walk you through the impact window options that align with your needs for protection and energy efficiency. The cost of your project is influenced by several factors: the total number of windows being replaced, the specific sizes and styles of the impact-rated windows you select, and the complexity of the installation process within your home's existing structure. We ensure transparency in how these elements contribute to the final quote.
Storm windows are typically a secondary layer installed outside or inside your existing windows. Hurricane windows, on the other hand, are designed as a single, integrated unit that replaces your current windows. They are engineered to withstand higher wind speeds and debris impact, offering a more robust protective solution for properties in areas prone to severe weather.
