Historic homes in Florida have a unique charm that tells a story, but maintaining them, especially in Central Florida, Jacksonville, and Tampa, comes with real challenges. Windows and doors often top the list of concerns for homeowners trying to keep the original look of their homes while also improving energy efficiency and protection. Renewal by Andersen offers tailored solutions that respect the past while delivering modern performance.
Renewal by Andersen specializes in custom window and door replacements, not new construction. Their approach is designed specifically for homes that need a balance of preservation and progress. With decades of experience and expert Certified Master Installers, Renewal by Andersen knows how to work with homes over 100 years old without sacrificing craftsmanship or aesthetic.
One standout product for historic homes in Florida is the Acclaim™ window line. With customizable options like double-hung, casement, and picture windows, homeowners can match original architectural features while upgrading insulation, strength, and energy performance. These windows are built with Fibrex® composite material—a proprietary blend that looks like wood but resists rot, mold, and warping. Fibrex® provides up to 700 times better insulation than aluminum, which means lower energy bills and more comfort year-round.
Many historic homes in the Jacksonville and Tampa regions are also located in areas prone to hurricanes and heavy storms. That’s why Renewal by Andersen offers Coastal and Impact windows engineered for the harshest Florida conditions. Their Stormwatch® Performance Options protect against flying debris and pressure changes, without relying on bulky storm shutters. These impact-resistant windows also meet local code requirements for coastal zones, making them a must-have for both safety and preservation.
Energy efficiency is another priority for historic homeowners. Many older homes were built before modern insulation and weatherproofing standards. Renewal by Andersen windows with High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass offer a solution, blocking 95% of UV rays and reducing solar heat gain, especially critical in Florida’s warm climate. Renewal by Andersen products are 14% more efficient than ENERGY STAR® requirements and have earned multiple ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year—Sustained Excellence Awards.
The personalized approach Renewal by Andersen takes—starting with an in-home consultation, followed by precise measurement, manufacturing, and expert installation—means your historic home gets exactly what it needs without compromise. Their commitment to cleanup, attention to detail, and ongoing customer care ensures the experience is stress-free from start to finish.
For homeowners in Central Florida, Jacksonville, and Tampa looking to preserve their home’s historic beauty while improving its strength, energy performance, and comfort, Renewal by Andersen offers a trusted, high-performance solution.
