Updated August 2026. South Florida impact work fails more often on the install than on the glass. The company that measures, permits, and sets the units has to match the Product Approval to your openings. This is a hiring checklist, not a ranking of every shop in the market.
Quick answer
Ask for Florida licenses, who will be on your house, how they waterproof CBS, and a written spec with Product Approval numbers. Then compare that to the bid, not a slogan. More questions: 8 questions before you hire.
What to verify before you sign
- License: Statewide Windows & Doors holds specialty contractor SCC131152028 and roofing CCC1335805. Ask any bidder for theirs.
- Permit in the bid: city or county, plus inspections. If it is not written, it is not included.
- Product Approval or NOA: sizes and design pressures have to match your house, not a brochure photo.
- Crew: ask who measures and who sets. Get that in writing.
- CBS waterproofing: openings in block need the right prep. See block waterproofing.
Do not pick a company because they claim to be the only installer in town. Compare the spec.
FAQ
Does a bigger brand mean a better install?
No. The assembly only performs if it is anchored, flashed, and inspected to the approval. Brand and crew are separate choices.
