Choose your installer
The unit is half the job - the install is the other half. Our own background-checked crews measure, set, seal and insulate every opening, and they know the lines we quote inside and out because they install them every week.
Select the right products
Compare styles, materials and glass packages side by side until the fit is right for your rooms, your budget and your goals. The product-line comparison below is the place to start.
Prepare your home for install
Before install day we walk you through a short checklist - furniture pulled back, treatments down, a clear path to each opening - so install day is watch-it-happen, not scramble.

Meet the Tampa Team Behind Meridian Windows and Doors Tampa
You don’t get a clean install by accident. You get it because the people on the job actually like what they do, and they’ve done it enough times to know what goes wrong before it goes wrong. Our Tampa crew is small on purpose. Every technician, installer, and coordinator you’ll talk to has been chosen for one reason: they treat your house the way they’d treat their own. No shortcuts, no surprise charges, no leaving a mess behind. A meridian is a fixed line you measure everything against, and that’s exactly how this team runs every job in Tampa.
Our People
Elliot Vance, Owner
Elliot Vance has been running crews in Florida since 2009, when he helped build what became The Garrison Standard: written pricing before work starts, a written 365-Day Done Right Promise after it’s done, and no fine print on either one. He’s the one who answers when a homeowner calls with a question that doesn’t fit a script, because he’s spent enough time on job sites to know that every house has a quirk. If you ask him whether new windows will fix a drafty house built in 1962, he’ll tell you the truth: the windows will help, but the wall insulation is doing you no favors either. That’s the kind of answer you get from someone who’d rather lose a sale than sell you the wrong fix.
Marcus T., Lead Technician
Marcus is the person who shows up first to measure, inspect, and figure out what the job actually needs, not what’s easiest to sell. He’s PGT and CGI certified for installation and has been setting windows in Florida homes for over a decade, which means he’s dealt with everything from hurricane-code retrofits to a homeowner who tried to caulk a window shut and made it worse. His specialty is precise measurements on older Tampa homes where the opening hasn’t been square since the Nixon administration. When he’s not on a ladder, he’s rebuilding a 1978 Chevy truck in his garage, one rusted panel at a time.
Lena R., Senior Installer
Lena handles the heavy installs: patio doors, large-frame windows, anything that takes two people and a level of patience most folks don’t have. She’s been with the crew for seven years and knows the PGT, CGI, CWS, and Therma-Tru product lines well enough to spot a factory defect before the window ever leaves the truck. Her rule on every job is simple: if the trim isn’t straight, it comes off and gets redone. She’s also the one who keeps the crew honest about cleanup, because nobody wants to find a drywall screw in the driveway three weeks later. Outside work, she coaches youth soccer in South Tampa and takes it way too seriously.
Danny O., Service Coordinator
Danny is the voice on the phone at midnight when you realize the patio door won’t latch and you’re not sure if it’s a repair or an emergency. He’s been coordinating window and door service in the Tampa area for five years, and he keeps the schedule running without overbooking, because a rushed crew makes mistakes and mistakes cost you time. He’s also the person who makes sure you get the written price before anyone touches your door, not after the job is half done. When he’s off the clock, he’s usually fishing off the Gandy Bridge or trying to convince his neighbors to start a block party that will never happen.
One Standard, Every Job
Every person on this crew works under the same set of rules, and those rules don’t change depending on the job or the neighborhood. The price goes on paper before any work starts, and it doesn’t move at the door. Every installation is covered in writing for 365 days; if it fails, we come back at no charge. Our technicians are background-checked and show up in uniform, so you know exactly who’s walking into your home. We carry eight manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux, so the right window gets spec’d for your house, not the one that happens to be sitting in our warehouse. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s been running since 2009. In Tampa, this crew backs it with real work, real measurements, and a real promise in writing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, and we’ll do our best to schedule them. Marcus handles most window replacements, and Lena leads the patio door installs. If you’ve worked with one of them before and want that same person back, Danny can usually make it happen when the schedule allows. Call (850) 821-3041 to ask.
We use our own team, which means the people who measure, install, and clean up are the same people who answer to Elliot Vance. Nobody gets subbed out to a third party. You know who’s coming, and they know your job from start to finish. Call (850) 821-3041 and ask for Danny if you’d like to meet the crew before you book.
