Most of it is single-family homes, many of them concrete block houses that have stood for decades. Mitchell Windows and Doors installs impact windows and doors in Town ’N’ Country, FL built for life close to the bay.

Storm Surge and Wind Off Old Tampa Bay

The western side of Town ’N’ Country meets Old Tampa Bay, and low ground near the water is exposed to storm surge in strong hurricanes. Wind coming across the bay has nothing to slow it down before it reaches the first rows of homes.

Impact windows do not hold back surge water, but they help keep the house closed to wind and debris. WindPact windows use laminated glass designed to stay in the frame when struck, so a broken pane does not become an open hole. Keeping every opening intact helps stop wind from getting inside, where it can push up on the roof.

Block Homes From Town ’N’ Country’s Early Days

Many homes here are single-story block houses, and plenty still have original aluminum or single-pane windows. Those windows leak air, let in heat and offer little protection in a storm.

CWS impact windows can take their place in the same block openings that have framed Town ’N’ Country homes for decades. StormStrong windows are a good fit for these homes, adding impact protection and Low-E glass that helps cut the heat coming through west-facing walls.

Quieter Rooms Near the Airport

Living close to Tampa International means hearing planes overhead, plus traffic on Hillsborough Avenue and the Veterans Expressway. Laminated impact glass softens that steady mix of jet and road noise before it reaches the living room. Owners who work from home or sleep during the day often notice the change most.

Many homeowners notice the difference first in bedrooms. Icon windows give a cleaner, more modern look for owners who are updating the front of the house at the same time.

Covering the Lanai Slider and the Front Door

Most Town ’N’ Country homes have a slider to the back patio or pool, and that wide opening often faces the bay breeze. BHI impact doors cover sliders and French doors.

Up front, a Plastpro fiberglass entry door adds impact protection and holds up to the humid, salty air that drifts in from the bay. Unlike an aging wood door, fiberglass won’t swell or rot in that damp bay air.
