Storm Tight Windows Reviews 2026
Storm Tight Windows are based out of South Florida (Deerfield Beach with a second branch in Houston, Texas) and specializes in impact windows and door installation. The company has been in business since 2010 - so pretty darn new to the world of replacement windows. They sell and install the Regency Plus, which is not exactly a household name of a window. However, due to the increase in hurricanes and tropical storms over the past decade, Storm Tight Windows appears to be part of a "growth industry."
💰 What Should Your Project Cost?
Answer a few quick questions to estimate project pricing.
Storm Tight Windows Product Overview
Storm Tight sources their impact windows from Regency Plus Windows out of Mount Carmel, Pennsylvania. Regency Plus claims to be the leading replacement window manufacturer in the country (I'm not sure I buy this one :) but it does take some gumption to make the claim. As to their overall quality, they do seems to be pretty solid - but that's a far as I can go in terms of an endorsement. I do know that they are Miami-Dade approved for use as hurricane windows.
Storm Tight Window Warranty Coverage
Storm Tight offers a life-of-the-home warranty that covers both the installation and the windows that they install. So any manufacturing or installation defects will be covered for as long as you own the home. The warranty is transferable to a subsequent homeowner. All in all, these are impressive warranty terms for an impact window installation company. Exclusions and caveats do apply so make sure to read the very latest Storm Tight Window warranty to make sure you full understand what is covered and what isn't.
Storm Tight vs ES Windows vs New South iVantage Quotes
| Window Option | Total Quote Installed | Average Installed Cost | Price Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storm Tight | $22,825 | Approximately $2,283 Per Opening | Lowest Quote |
| ES Windows | $23,100 | Approximately $2,310 Per Opening | $275 More |
| New South iVantage | $27,800 | Approximately $2,780 Per Opening | $4,975 More |
Pricing Note: Average installed costs were calculated across 10 total openings — 8 hurricane impact windows and 2 patio sliders. Because patio sliders typically cost more than standard windows, these averages should be viewed as project-level comparisons rather than true per-window pricing.
"I'm in South Florida and we definitely need hurricane impact windows. We have 8 windows and 2 patio sliders that we are trying to decide on and I'd love a bit of help in this regard.
Storm Tight quoted us at $22,825
ES Windows quoted us out for $23,100
New South iVantage for $27,800"

Editor's Advice:
Stevie, for me the Storm Tight option is the frontrunner here. The New South is too expensive and the Storm Tight is less expensive than the ES Windows option. I think as long as you get a good vibe from them, then Storm Tight is the way to go.

Storm Tight vs Soft Lite Barcelona vs CWS Impact Windows
| Window Option | Project Configuration | Total Quote Installed | Editor's Take |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storm Tight / Regency Plus | 5 Openings - 3 Sliders, 1 Double Hung And 1 Bathroom Window | $8,825 - Later Reduced To $8,620 | Less Proven Than Soft-Lite |
| Soft Lite Barcelona | 7 Windows - 1 Slider, 5 Double Hungs And 1 Bathroom Window | $9,100 | Preferred Premium Option |
| CWS Impact Windows | 7 Windows - Single Hung Configuration | $7,800 | Strong Lower-Cost Alternative |
Pricing Note: These quotes are not directly comparable on a per-window basis because the Storm Tight proposal uses 5 openings, while the Soft Lite and CWS proposals use 7 individual window units.
"Hi, I live in South Florida and am looking to replace my windows with hurricane impact windows. I have had two different companies give me quotes on their vinyl window systems. One of the companies is Storm Tight and they claim they manufacture their own windows. They look very similar to the Barcelona series from Soft Lite. I received an estimate from Paradise Exteriors for the Barcelona Soft Lite windows as well as their CWS windows.
Of course, both companies claim to be the best and have reasons as to why the other one is not the best choice. Other than price, is one better over the other as far as quality, warranty, installation issues, etc? I have 5 openings, but both companies have told me that three of them are oversized and would actually require two windows, or a slider window.
Storm Tight quoted me $8825.00 for three slider windows, one double hung window, and the other one is a small privacy bathroom window. That price includes all the permits, HOA, installation, etc.
Paradise quoted me for 7 windows: one for Soft Lite and one for CWS.
Soft Lite - $9100 for one slider window, 5 double hung windows, and the bathroom window
CWS - $7800 for the same 7 windows with the same vinyl construction and glass, except that they would be single hung and would not have the tilt in feature, night latches, and extra insulation.
Any recommendations or suggestions that you may have would be greatly appreciated."

Editor's Advice:
Dan, I believe that Storm Tight buys from Regency, but I can't speak to the quality of them. I have talked to several consumers who have showed me bids that were pretty high from them.
Soft-Lite makes some of the best windows and doors in the business. So the difference of $300 to go with a company that has proven itself a high quality manufacturer wouldn't be a question for me. Soft-Lite over the Storm Tight for sure.
The Custom Window System bid however is considerably lower and the company makes a solid impact window and door. This would be the big question for me. If I could, I would try to stretch into the Soft-Lite option, especially if I were going to be in the house for a long time. If I were considering moving in 10 years or less, I might save the money and go with the CWS.

Homeowner Follow-Up
" Thank you so much for your reply. I have been doing more research and the windows that Storm Tight manufactures is Regency Plus out of Pennsylvania. They are very similar to the Soft Lite Barcelona window, with the main difference being that Regency Plus is Miami-Dade approved and the SoftLites are not, they are only State of Florida approved. They actually lowered their quote to $8620.00.
Do you know anything about either one’s warranty? They both claim lifetime warranties.
I would appreciate any input you may have. Your first response is very helpful."

Editor's Follow-Up Advice:
Patti, I googled regency windows and regency windows complaints came up high in the search bar.
I don't know enough about Storm Tight to say don't go with them, but I tend to give advise based on the following mantra — go with the company that has a proven track record of success, even if that means a bit more money up front. it could save you lots in the long run.
Storm Tight's reputation feels questionable to me, while Soft-Lite is very solid. Soft-Lite carries a lifetime warranty that should hold true.

Storm Tight Windows Reviews And Houston Quote
| Window Option | Total Quote Installed | Average Installed Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Storm Tight Windows Premium Line | $30,000 | Approximately $1,154 Per Window |
Pricing Note: The average installed cost was calculated by dividing the $30,000 project quote by 26 windows. Because the project includes several odd-sized and shaped windows, individual unit costs may vary significantly.
"Are you familiar with Storm Tight Windows? The sales rep stated they make their own products factory in PA. The product looked good. I have seen a few homes in the neighborhood that have used them and the homeowners are happy. $30K for 26 windows – several odd sized/shapes. These are their "premium" line. I am in the Houston TX area."

Editor's Advice:
Jon, I don't know a lot about this window company. I have to say that's not the cheapest window option I've seen in terms of impact windows, especially for a company that isn't all that recognizable. Please let me know how they work out for you so that I can report this to our readers. Thanks!

Storm Tight Window Review
I have been researching hurricane impact windows and have become thoroughly confused. We spoke to someone at Storm Tight and though we were going to go with them, but we are now having second thoughts. What are the best hurricane rated impact windows we can buy?
Lisa - Homeowner - from 2016
[Site Editor's Response]
Lisa, I don't know much about Storm Tight, I did a bit of checking and they seem ok, I noticed a few people had some negative reviews that centered on slick sales presentations and poor customer service, but that doesn't mean much. In terms of the windows they sell, I couldn't say because it looks like they probably resell windows instead of manufacture them themselves (which isn't necessarily a bad thing).
I'm assuming you are in Florida based on Storm Tight's location. If it were me, I would search for local companies that carry PGT windows, Custom Window Systems (CWS), and perhaps someone who carries the Simonton StormBreaker Plus or the Simonton Impressions 9800 (you will need to get a couple upgrades to get the 9800 hurricane rated).
I would suggest getting a couple more bids and seeing how it compares to the Storm Tight quote.

Storm Tight Windows Lawsuit
There have been some smaller lawsuits filed/a<> against the company, Weinstock vs Storm Tight, Shor vs Storm Tight, but these appear to be internal lawsuits against the company over back wages etc. From what I could dig up, there haven't been any class action suits filed against the company for faulty products. If you happen to have additional information on Storm Tight Windows lawsuits that could shed additional light on the company's practices, I'd love to hear it.
