Oceanside Replacement Windows That Include Our Special Coastal Warranty
If you live in Oceanside or in any of the other coastal cities in San Diego County, there’s something important you should know before you sign a contract to purchase replacement windows. Some of the things that you would think would be covered in a window manufacturer’s warranty are actually not covered if you live within two miles of the ocean. For example, you may not be covered if the hardware on your windows stops working properly.

We understand why the manufacturers put this exclusion in their warranties: the salty ocean air can be brutal on certain materials in windows and doors. It …

What San Diego Homeowners Need to Know About Bow Windows
Let’s talk about bow windows for San Diego homes. We love a good bow window, as they have many benefits. The term “bow window” can be a little confusing. A bow window is not a type of window, per se. Rather, a bow window is a group of windows arranged in such a way that it creates a bump out on the outside of your home, and an alcove on the inside. Bow windows contain four to six individual, vertically oriented windows that are placed next to each other and angle out from the exterior of the house to create a curved look. The individual windows in a bow window can be fixed windows (which don’t open or close), single or double hung windows, casement windows, or any combination of these types of windows. Typically, all of the individual windows in a bow window are the same size, although …
