Out of the 3 different windows companies that I evaluated, Julio had the best pricing and was the only one who brought glass samples and window demos ready to show us.

“The American Home Renewal team recently completed a full exterior refresh of our home including new pre-construction windows, insulation, sheathing, waterproofing, siding and trim. The work was excellent, the house looks great and the cost, while on the higher end of the 5 bids I got, was fair, particularly considering the quality of the work, outstanding experience with the crews and a few small extras that they included without tacking on change orders. A few specific things I'd highlight: * Chris (principal) was great to work with and our interaction was what really sold me on going with AHR in the first place. Clear, professional, incredibly thorough and detailed on the estimate, and when talking through the scope of the project. * Keith (the PM on the job) was always in touch, great about providing updates on progress, was VERY responsive when I had questions and was great about following up after the product to make sure things were cleaned up and the debris box was picked up in a timely manner. He also handled coordination with the electrician and the city on inspections/permitting. * The crews were super nice, courteous to my family, did exceptional work and didn’t leave a bunch of trash and debris all over the place (which I’ve often dealt with in the past with other companies) * Chris asked the crew to “give some love” to our front/back doors since the original remodel crew 7 years ago, did a crappy job hanging them and they were constantly sticking/hitting the frame. They rehung both doors at no charge and now they are so much better! * They finished 3 DAYS EARLY. When was the last time that happened on a construction project??!? Great group, across the board. Highest possible recommendation if you need remodel work done!”

“We had a bedroom window and patio sliding glass door that needed replacing due to them being 20 years old and falling apart from a different window maker and designer. We reached out to Pella and I came in contact with Bobby Mcmillan and Cindy Taylor to inquire about getting a quote and if they could help with design ideas and options. Bobby came out to our place and was very accommodating to work the appointment anround our busy schedules. Bobby was extremely professional and it was clear that he was equally knowledgeable about what options would suit us best, especially since we live near SFO and have a great deal of noise pollution. Never once did we feel that he was trying to sell us on upgrades or pressure us into the most expensive options, he genuinely seemed to just want to provide us with the ability to make the best informed decision to meet our needs. In addition, we have an HOA that has restrictions around the types of windows/doors that can be installed here. Surprisingly, he was already familiar with what would qualify to meet the restrictions and saved us the hassle of trying to figure it out on our own. He even provided everything we needed up front for the architectural application so the work could be approved including model numbers, materials, installation times and completion dates. Cindy was able to make the ordering and transaction seemless. She kept us informed of the status of the order, and helped us to coordinate the installation. She was very polite and patient. I had many questions regarding the order and she was able to answer them all and again make everything work out perfectly with our schedule to have everything completed to meet the timeline of the HOA in addition to having the work scheduled during our day off. The sliding patio door and window are gorgeous and we honestly wish we had done it sooner. We highly recommend calling them if you are in the market to replace your doors and windows. They are very professional and exceeded our expectations making what we thought was going to be a nightmare to deal with, an easy and painless experience with an amazing outcome.”

“Our house in Oakland had original single pane windows from the 1940s that were drafty and impossible to clean. We decided to replace all of them before winter and chose KJ Replacement Windows based on their reviews. They came out and walked us through the different options, explaining the energy ratings and styles without being pushy. Installation took three days for 12 windows and the crew was fantastic. They showed up early, protected our floors and furniture, and cleaned up completely each afternoon. The difference is incredible. The house is so much quieter now and our heating bill dropped noticeably last month. The windows look beautiful too, they matched the craftsman style of our home perfectly. We also had them replace a stubborn sliding door that never worked right. Now it slides smooth and seals tight. Fair pricing and professional work all around. Highly recommend them.”

“We needed an additional door that matched all the doors we already had in our house. AMC Doors & Windows, a Family Business helped us match the new door to the other doors in our house. We weren't sure if we would find a door match but AMC Doors & Windows was the best in helping us. They told us the information they needed to match the door and were detailed in their approach by also making sure all the hinges and door handles matched, plus they offered the best price.

“Fantastic service. Open and honest. I had two places that needed windows, my place and my sister's. Chico came out and measured both places and you can immediately tell that he is an expert and that put me at ease. Both buildings are old and my sister's required custom windows (SF regulation) since it was an old building with original 1908 windows. Window and Door Shop manufactured six custom ornate windows that perfectly matched the original ones, down to the grooves on the wood. I needed 4 Marvin casement windows at my place and the crew did a quick and thoroughly clean job installing them. Our dog scratched the interior wood of one and Chico said that he will send a crew out to sand it down and re-finish the tiny nick and give us the bottle of the finish just in case our dog gets a little too excited about the postal carrier again. Great business. I would recommend Window and Door enthusiastically. Chico, Danielle and the installation crew are top notch.”
