Tampa Bay Homeowners Compare Window Replacement Quotes and Costs

Hi everyone. I'm about to replace all the windows in my 1970s single-story home in Tampa (Hillsborough County). I wanted to start this thread to compare actual window replacement quotes and costs with other Tampa Bay homeowners. I have 12 windows (mix of 8 single-hung and 4 small sliders) that need replacing. I'm looking at double-pane vinyl windows, probably going with hurricane impact for storm safety. So far, I got two quotes: Quote 1 (Karoly Windows): For PGT impact windows (white vinyl frames, Low-E glass) – came out to about $11,500 total for 12 windows. This includes installation, permits, removal of old windows, and exterior trim work. They gave a per-window breakdown averaging around $950 each. Quote 2 (NewSouth): They quoted their own brand of impact windows at $15,300 total (about $1,275 per window on average). This also includes install and permit, but the price was quite a bit higher. The salesperson mentioned their windows are manufactured locally and had some extra features, but I'm not sure if it justifies the cost difference. Both quotes are for white frames (I heard bronze or black frames can add cost) and include Low-E glass. Neither company even offered non-impact glass given our hurricane codes, so I guess impact is the standard here. I'm new to this and trying to figure out if these quotes are in line with what others are paying around Tampa Bay. If you've recently gotten window replacement quotes (especially for impact windows in Hillsborough, Pinellas, or Pasco), can you share your numbers? Please include how many windows, what brand or type (PGT, Simonton, etc.), styles (single-hung, casement, sliders), and any special options (impact vs non-impact, frame color, glass upgrades). Also curious about the install details: did your quotes include permit fees, old window removal, and any surprises like stucco repair or extra trim costs? I want to budget properly and understand what to watch out for in the quotes. Thanks! Looking forward to comparing notes with fellow local homeowners.
