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.

Window Company in San Diego, CA
Hale Windows & Doors is the window company San Diego homeowners call when original aluminum frames have finally given up to decades of salt air and sun. Our San Diego work centers on three services: Window Replacement in San Diego, Window Repair in San Diego, and Front Door Replacement in San Diego. San Diego jobs are different. The marine layer near the coast corrodes hardware fast, while the inland sun bakes seals until they fail. You need products chosen for UV exposure and corrosion resistance, not just looks. Call (619) 793-3248 for a written quote before any work begins.
Why San Diego Homes Are Different
San Diego’s housing stock runs heavily to mid-century ranch homes and 1970s-80s tract developments. Many still have their original single-pane aluminum windows and sliding glass doors. Those frames were not built for our coastal environment. Within a few miles of the ocean, salt in the marine layer works into aluminum tracks and hardware until sliders seize or frames pit. Inland, the bigger enemy is solar radiation: intense year-round sun breaks down glazing seals and fades interior finishes faster than homeowners expect.
The balance San Diego requires is unusual. You do not need windows engineered for Minnesota winters. You need glass coatings that block UV without making rooms dark, and frames or hardware that will not corrode in salt air. In neighborhoods like Clairemont and Mira Mesa, we regularly see original 1960s aluminum sliders that have seized completely from salt exposure, an issue that barely exists ten miles inland. That is why we stock parts and specify products differently for coastal San Diego jobs than we would for inland ones.
Our Main San Diego Services
San Diego homeowners most often call us for two things: full window replacement when original units finally fail, and targeted repair when one or two windows are the problem. Here is what each involves here.
Window Replacement in San Diego
Replacement work in San Diego usually means pulling original aluminum frames and installing new units built for our specific conditions. We carry lines like ECO Window Systems and ViewLux, which let us match an impact-rated or low-E product to your exact exposure, whether you are three blocks from the water in Point Loma or inland in Scripps Ranch. Every replacement quote is a written price delivered before we order a single unit. Learn more on our Window Replacement in San Diego page.
Window Repair in San Diego
Most window repair calls in San Diego involve failed seals, corroded hardware, or sliders that no longer move. Near the coast, we see a steady stream of pitted aluminum tracks and rusted rollers. Inland, the dominant call is fogged glass from broken seals caused by constant sun exposure. We repair rather than replace whenever the frame is still structurally sound. Every repair carries a written guarantee, and if the repair fails, the second visit is free. Details are on our Window Repair in San Diego page.
Front Door Replacement in San Diego
Front doors in San Diego take a quiet beating: direct afternoon sun on west-facing entries, salt haze in coastal neighborhoods, and wood that swells during the damp marine-layer months. We focus on entry doors that hold up under those conditions, and we work with products from Therma-Tru and Mr-Glass among our eight professional lines. Each door replacement starts with a written quote so you know the full cost before any tools come off the truck. See options on our Front Door Replacement in San Diego page.

What pushes a San Diego job toward the higher end? Coastal homes with corroded frames often need extra prep or custom sizing, and west-facing elevations with heavy sun exposure justify higher-grade glass. Whatever the number, you receive it in writing before work begins, and it does not change unless the scope changes with your approval.
