Built Before the Codes That Protect You
Original Carrollwood's 1960s ranches and Carrollwood Village's 1970s–1980s homes largely still carry single-pane aluminum or early double-pane non-impact windows. Northdale, Citrus Park and Plantation are 1980s–1990s frame-and-block with builder windows and roofs replaced once in the 2000s, now aging out.
- 24/7 protection — no shutters to hang, no plywood panic
- Insurance credits — FL Stat. 627.0629 requires insurers to discount protected homes — documented reductions of 30% or more, some 50%+
- Lower energy bills — impact glass insulates against Carrollwood summers
- Up to $500 sales-tax refund — Florida's HB 7031E, for homesteaded homes

What Makes Carrollwood Different
Carrollwood is one of the best-preserved older housing stocks in Hillsborough County, which means a very high share of original windows: 1960s Original Carrollwood ranches with aluminum single-hung units, 1970s–80s Carrollwood Village homes with early sliders, and 1980s–90s Northdale and Plantation homes with builder glass. None of it is rated. A full Miami-Dade impact package on these homes earns the opening-protection credit and, on the lake homes, protects the big water-facing glass. Carrollwood Village and Plantation have architectural review; we handle it.

What Carrollwood Homeowners Ask
Does Carrollwood Village require approval for new windows?
Yes for exterior appearance — frame color and grid pattern. We provide the product approvals and drawings and typically submit the packet on your behalf.
Does the $0-down program work in Carrollwood?
Yes. Carrollwood is unincorporated Hillsborough County, so qualified homes can finance impact windows, doors and roofs at $0 down through the county-approved program, with approval not based on credit score and repayment through the property-tax bill.
Will impact windows lower my insurance in Carrollwood?
In most cases, yes — Florida law requires insurers to credit wind-mitigation features, and the wind portion is a large share of most Carrollwood premiums. The key rule: every opening must be protected to capture the full credit. Florida homeowners who completed these upgrades have seen premiums drop 30% or more, some by 50%+ — ask to see the before-and-after declaration pages at your evaluation. Homeowner results →
