The City of Dunedin issues your permit

Dunedin is incorporated and runs its own building department, so work inside the city limits is filed there rather than with Pinellas County. The boundary is not obvious from the road and a mailing address does not settle it — neighbouring properties can fall under the county or under a different municipality entirely — so we take the jurisdiction from the parcel record before anything is ordered. Filing at the wrong counter is a fortnight lost, and it is discovered late rather than early. Pulling the permit is our job, not yours.

Statewide approval, not the Miami-Dade route

Pinellas County sits outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which covers Miami-Dade and Broward only. Impact products here qualify under statewide Florida Product Approval rather than requiring a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. The approved range is wider and the same protection generally costs less than it would in Miami. The standard is not looser: the design pressure is still calculated for your opening, on your elevation, at your address, and the approval documents still go in with the permit.

What is specific to Dunedin

Dunedin fronts St. Joseph Sound on the Gulf side and runs its own building department. Its older downtown stock predates any wind-borne debris code, and in the historic areas the appearance of a replacement window — profile, colour, grid — can be reviewed alongside its structural approval, so the specification needs settling before the order rather than after.

Gulf exposure, and how fast it falls away inland

A waterfront elevation with a long clear fetch across open water calculates to a considerably higher design pressure than one a few miles inland, and the difference here is large enough to change which products qualify and what they cost. Salt behaves the same way: it reaches hinges, rollers, tracks and fixings long before it affects laminated glass, so marine-grade fittings near the water are the correct specification rather than an upsell. Two houses in the same community can need genuinely different specifications, and a quote that does not distinguish them has not calculated the site.

Doors on a Gulf-side elevation

Sliders and French doors facing the water carry the largest loads on the building, so the header and the anchor pattern are assessed before the configuration is settled. Stainless tandem rollers and marine-grade locking hardware are the right specification on any water-facing elevation rather than an upsell, because the rollers and the lock are what corrode first. Threshold and sill-pan detailing matters most there, where wind-driven rain off open water finds a gap in the pan first.

Dunedin impact windows

We are new to Dunedin, and we would rather say so

ClearView has been fitting impact windows and doors in South Florida since 2015, under the strictest wind-borne debris code in the country. Dunedin is a new market for us from October 2026. The crews, the licence and the way we work come with us; a list of local references does not. Ask every contractor you speak to for their licence number in writing — CGC1530499 is ours.

For a sense of the numbers before anyone visits, the cost calculator works on published market ranges, and how the wind mitigation credit is calculated covers the insurance side properly.

Same crews, same statewide licence. The permitting authority changes with the address, which is why each of these has its own page.

Common questions about impact windows in Dunedin

The City of Dunedin does. Dunedin is incorporated and runs its own building department, so work inside the city limits is filed there rather than with Pinellas County. Neighbouring addresses can fall under a different municipality or under the county, and the boundaries are not obvious from the road, so we take the jurisdiction from the parcel record rather than the mailing address. Pulling the permit is our job, not yours.
