01 General

The basics.

What services do you offer?+

We're a licensed Orlando general contractor (FL CGC1540149) handling impact windows & doors, roofing, solar roofing, and HVAC — all under one roof. Most Central Florida homeowners bundle two or three of these into a single project, with one financing application, one crew, and one point of contact instead of juggling separate companies. We serve Orlando and the surrounding metro. Call (954) 440-7312 for a free, no-pressure in-home consultation.

Are you licensed and insured?+

Yes. American Impact & Energy LLC is a Florida-licensed general contractor — license #CGC1540149 — fully insured and bonded. That means your impact windows, roofing, and HVAC work is permitted, code-compliant, and backed by both workmanship and manufacturer warranties. In Florida, using a licensed GC also protects your insurance coverage and resale value. You can verify our license anytime at MyFloridaLicense.com, or call (954) 440-7312 and we'll walk you through it.

What areas do you serve?+

We're based in Orlando at 5764 S Semoran Blvd, Building E, and serve homeowners across Central and South Florida — including Winter Park, Kissimmee, Lake Nona, Sanford, Altamonte Springs, and surrounding communities. Because we're local, our crews know Florida's building codes, hurricane requirements, and permit offices firsthand. If you're not sure whether we cover your neighborhood, call (954) 440-7312 and we'll confirm in under a minute.

How fast can you start?+

For most projects in Orlando we schedule a free consultation within a day or two, and installation typically begins within one to three weeks depending on permits and material lead times. When it's urgent — storm damage, a roof leak, or a failed AC in Florida heat — we prioritize same-day callbacks and expedited scheduling. Call (954) 440-7312 and tell us what's going on; we'll give you a realistic timeline up front.

02 Financing

Paying for your project.

Do you really offer $0 down financing?+

Yes. Qualified Orlando homeowners can finance 100% of their project — windows, roofing, or HVAC — with $0 down and no payment for the first 24 months. Approval isn't based on a minimum credit score, and you can finance up to $250,000. It's designed so you can protect or upgrade your home now and pay later, without draining savings. Call (954) 440-7312 to check if you qualify in a few minutes.

Is there a minimum credit score?+

No. Our financing program has no minimum credit score requirement — approval considers more than just your FICO number, so many homeowners who've been turned down elsewhere still qualify. We review your options with you in person, with no pressure and no obligation. You can finance up to $250,000 with $0 down and no payments for two years. Call (954) 440-7312 to see where you stand.

Can I bundle multiple services on one plan?+

Absolutely — that's one of the main advantages of using a single general contractor. You can combine impact windows, roofing, solar, and HVAC into one project, one financing application, and one schedule, instead of coordinating three separate companies. Bundling often means better pricing, fewer permits to manage, and a single warranty point of contact. Tell us what your Orlando home needs at (954) 440-7312 and we'll build one straightforward plan.

03 Services & Process

Windows, roofing & HVAC.

Will impact windows lower my insurance?+

Often, yes. Many Florida insurers offer wind-mitigation premium reductions for homes with code-compliant impact windows and doors, because they dramatically reduce hurricane damage risk. The exact savings depend on your insurer, home, and current coverage. After installation, we provide the wind-mitigation documentation you can submit to your insurance company. To talk through your specific situation, call (954) 440-7312 for a free assessment in Orlando.

What roofing materials do you install?+

We install shingle, tile, and metal roofing in Orlando — each chosen for Florida's storm season, heat, and humidity. Asphalt shingle is the most budget-friendly, tile offers long life and curb appeal, and metal delivers maximum wind and durability performance. Every roof is installed to Florida code with proper underlayment, fastening, and ventilation. We'll recommend the right system for your home and budget — call (954) 440-7312 for a free roof evaluation.

Do you offer HVAC maintenance?+

Yes. Beyond new AC and heating installations, we offer HVAC maintenance plans to keep your system running efficiently through Florida's long cooling season. Regular maintenance — coil cleaning, filter changes, and tune-ups — lowers energy bills, prevents mid-summer breakdowns, and extends the life of your equipment. Whether you need a new system or service on an existing one, call (954) 440-7312 to schedule in Orlando.

What does the process look like?+

It starts with a free, face-to-face consultation at your Orlando home — no obligation. We assess what you need, then present a clear, line-item estimate with $0-down financing options. Once you approve, we handle permits, scheduling, and installation with our own licensed crews, and walk you through everything at completion so you know exactly what was done. From first call to finished project, you have one point of contact. Call (954) 440-7312 to start.
