Frequently asked questions
- What are impact windows and do I need them in South Florida?
- Impact windows are glass units designed to resist flying debris and high winds during hurricanes. In South Florida you should consider impact windows to meet Miami-Dade and HVHZ windstorm requirements and to reduce storm damage risk, increase home security, and improve energy performance.
- How much do impact windows cost in Miami?
- Costs depend on window type, size, glass options, and installation complexity. Bigfoot offers online impact window pricing ranges and a windows estimator to produce a project-specific estimate, and the team can provide a written proposal after a site review.
- What types of impact windows does Bigfoot install?
- Bigfoot installs awning, casement, picture, arch and other impact window styles, using hurricane-rated glass and frames sized for South Florida homes. The company shows product lines in a virtual showroom to help homeowners compare materials and configurations.
- Do I need a permit for window or roof replacement in Miami-Dade?
- Permitting rules vary by county and project scope, but most impact window and full roof replacements require a permit in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach. Bigfoot works with local permitting requirements as part of their installation process and can advise on permit needs during the consultation.
- How long does a roof replacement take?
- Roof replacement timelines depend on roof size, material (shingle, tile, metal), and site conditions. Bigfoot provides scheduling estimates after an on-site assessment and manages the installation with in-house crews to reduce coordination delays.
- What is the difference between shingle roofing and tile roofing?
- Shingle roofing is lighter and typically less expensive up front, while tile roofing is heavier, often more durable, and offers a different aesthetic and longer life in many cases. Bigfoot installs both shingle and tile roofing and will recommend materials based on budget, roof structure, and homeowner priorities.
- Does Bigfoot offer financing for windows, doors, or roofing?
- Yes. Bigfoot outlines financing options and provides a financing calculator so homeowners can compare payment plans. PACE and other project-ready financing options are explained for qualifying projects to help plan upgrades.
- What warranties and post-installation support are available?
- Bigfoot provides warranty resources through a Warranty Center and includes warranty planning details in proposals. Warranty scope varies by product and manufacturer, and the company helps homeowners understand coverage for glass, frames, and roofing materials.
- How do impact doors differ from regular exterior doors?
- Impact doors use reinforced frames, laminated or impact-rated glass, and heavy-duty hardware to withstand wind-borne debris and high winds. Bigfoot offers entry, sliding, French, and pivot impact doors configured to meet hurricane performance requirements.
- What should I consider when choosing an installer for hurricane-rated windows or a roof?
- Choose a licensed, insured contractor with experience meeting local HVHZ standards and with documented installations in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach. Bigfoot emphasizes licensed crews, in-house installers, project proposals, and local experience since 2016 as elements homeowners should verify.
