Custom Exterior Upgrades for Regency Homes
Exterior Remodeling Services Regency
Your Regency ranch or split-level home deserves a complete exterior upgrade, not scattered fixes. We handle windows, doors, siding, and sunrooms as one project so everything matches, functions together, and holds its value.
Windows
Impact-rated windows in Regency homes stop two things: the Florida sun that ages every exterior, and the constant traffic noise from the Arlington Expressway. You’ll notice lower cooling bills, better comfort, and a quieter home year-round.
Doors
Your Regency home’s front entrance and patio doors need to work as hard as they look. We install ProVia and Therma-Tru doors that seal tight, don’t rattle in storms, and match the style of your established neighborhood home.
Siding
The original siding on most Regency homes was fiber cement or vinyl, and decades of Florida sun have taken their toll. We replace it with durable, low-maintenance siding that won’t fade, crack, or need repainting every few years.
Lanai & Sunroom
A custom lanai or sunroom gives your Regency home an outdoor living space that actually works year-round. Built with impact glass and proper ventilation, it handles the heat and humidity while expanding how you use your home.

Received more window quotes than I’d like to admit given the cost and amount of windows. Went with Preferred Upgrades and was not disappointed. Felt Ray was the most straight forward and honest, and he didn’t try any high pressure tactics like the others. I was nervous about replacing 18 windows in a 100 year old home, but install only took two days and nothing was added on top of the quote. Installation crew was on time and efficient, they cleaned everything up and even put all the blinds back up. Superior service and quality, would highly recommend.Posted on Google Ian NorthcuttTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend!! Everyone we worked with were extremely professional and helpful. Everything was on time and smooth. We are very happy with our new windows and 8 foot sliding door. They also did excellent work on our siding repairs, even going above and beyond and repairing a couple extra spots of trim around my garage.Posted on Google Tanya EngelbrechtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can not say enough how happy I am with the service I received. Ray was fantastic and you can tell that he values his customers. He stopped by almost every day. We had 53 windows replaced. The end results were beautiful. .
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does window replacement cost in Regency?
Window replacement in Regency typically costs between $8,000 and $15,000 for a full-home project, though the final price depends on the number of windows, frame condition, and material you choose. Many Regency homes have aging frames and broken seals from years of sun and humidity exposure, which can affect installation time and cost. We provide a free, detailed quote with transparent pricing so you know exactly what to expect.
Are impact windows worth it in Regency?
Impact windows aren’t required in Regency, but they’re a smart investment if you want to reduce maintenance and improve long-term durability. The sustained sun exposure and humidity in this area accelerate seal failure on standard windows, and impact glass handles thermal stress better. For the ranch and split-level homes common throughout Regency, impact windows also provide better energy efficiency and noise reduction.
How long does siding installation take in Regency?
Most siding jobs in Regency take 5 to 10 days depending on your home’s size and the condition of the existing exterior. Because homes here often show weather wear from humidity and UV cycling, we inspect the substrate during installation—if we find rot or deterioration, additional prep work may add 2 to 3 days. We’ll provide an accurate timeline during your free consultation.
Do you offer financing in Regency?
Yes, we partner with multiple financing providers to make exterior upgrades affordable for Regency homeowners. Most customers qualify for flexible options with little or no money down and manageable monthly payments. Contact us or schedule your free consultation to discuss current financing terms and any available promotions.
