THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
Salt Air and Afternoon Sun Are Costing You Every Month.
The thought of a pushy estimator puts you off calling anyone.
If your sliding glass door takes two hands to open, or the rooms that get the afternoon sun never cool down no matter what the thermostat says, you’re not alone. San Diego County homeowners lose thousands every year to heat-trapping glass and retail markups.
Rooms east of the 15 that bake all afternoon, driving up your SDG&E bill month after month
Locks that stiffen and rollers that seize in the salt air that get worse every year you wait
Foggy, failed glass that lowers your curb appeal and your home’s value
Big-box quotes with 30-50% middleman markup, same-day pressure, and nobody to call in year three
We've Sat at More Than 10,000 Kitchen Tables. No Pressure, No Middleman.
We don't just sell windows - we manufacture them ourselves in California and install them with our own crews. No dealer in the middle, no national brand's markup, and no subcontractor you've never met.
Built for California Sun
Cardinal LoĒ³-366 glass reflects the sun’s heat before it reaches the room, and blocks 95% of the UV that fades carpets, furniture and curtains. A 1/2" warm-edge spacer cuts heat transfer at the edge of the glass, where most windows lose it.
Glass That Cleans Itself
Neat+ is a titanium-dioxide layer bonded to the outside of the glass. Sunlight breaks down the dirt sitting on it, and water sheets off evenly instead of beading — so rain carries the dirt away instead of leaving spots. It works through cloud cover too.
A Quieter House, If You Need One
Near the 5, the 15 or the 78? Our Sound Package adds 50% more glass in two different thicknesses, so the panes don’t resonate together and pass noise straight through. Laminated glass is a second option.
Lifetime Warranty - Products and Installation
The company that built your windows is the company that installed them, so it’s one phone call and no runaround. No-hassle, covering both the product and the work.
Every person who builds and installs your windows works here. No subcontractors, ever.

OUR WINDOW STYLES
Seven Styles, Custom-Sized to Every Opening
Every window is built to your exact measurements. Mix styles room by room. All windows made in-house with a lifetime warranty.
Slider Windows
Our most popular replacement. Two-panel (XO/OX) and three-panel (XOX) sliders running on anti-friction composite pads — the track stays clean and oil-free instead of gumming up the way metal rollers do.
Single-Hung & Casement
Classic vertical operation on continuous force balancers, so the sash lifts with almost no effort and stays where you put it. Or a crank-out casement that seals tight against the frame and catches the breeze off the coast.
Picture & Geometric
Fixed picture windows for maximum light and an unobstructed view, plus arched and radius-top geometrics for specialty openings — and picture-over-slider when you want the view up high and the airflow down low.

THEY PATCHED THE DRYWALL
“In talking to other door companies before signing on with Hometime, not all companies were willing to do the necessary patching work to leave a cleanly finished installation.”

NO SALES PRESSURE
"Jeff clearly explained Hometime's products and installation process without heavy-handed salesman tactics. The price quoted was exceptionally fair and less than we had budgeted for."

100 HOURS OF RESEARCH
"Our job was pretty big - 38 windows and a couple of big sliding glass doors. I spent probably 100 hours researching this industry. More than satisfied with the product, and the price ended up being the best of all by more than a little bit."

FROM OUR FACTORY TO YOUR HOME
Built in Our Own Factory. Installed by Our San Diego Crew.
Most window companies are dealers. They order from a national manufacturer, add their markup, and hand the installation to whichever subcontractor is free that week. We build your windows at our own factory in Upland, ship them to our San Diego location, and install them with the crew based there. Same company start to finish, and nobody in the middle taking a cut.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Straight Answers for San Diego County
How much does window replacement cost in San Diego County?
Most projects run $400 to $900 per window installed, depending on size, style and glass package. Because we build our own windows there’s no dealer markup, and customers typically save 20 to 40% against dealer quotes. You get a written, itemized price at your free consultation.
Do you install the windows yourselves?
Yes. Every window is installed by Hometime employees, never subcontractors. Our lead installers started out in our factory, so the person fitting your window learned it on the production line. We protect your floors, haul the old windows away, then clean up and walk the finished work with you.
What warranty comes with the windows?
A full No-Hassle Lifetime Warranty covering both the product and the installation. Because we manufactured your windows and installed them ourselves, there’s no argument about whose problem it is. One phone call, no third parties, and the same company answers in year fifteen.
Will you have to cut my stucco?
Usually not. Most San Diego homes take a retrofit installation, where the new window seats into your existing frame, so the stucco is never opened and there’s nothing to patch afterward. For additions and full remodels we build new-construction windows that install before the exterior finish goes on.
Are Hometime windows Title 24 compliant?
Yes. Every window meets California’s Title 24 energy standards, and our products are NFRC certified. You’ll get the NFRC label with your proposal so you can see the exact U-factor and SHGC for the glass package you choose. Ask for it when you compare bids.
What is the "Sound Package"?
A glass upgrade: 50% more glass in two different thicknesses, 1/8" Cardinal LoĒ³-366 paired with a 1/4" clear pane. Laminated glass is a second option, since its multi-layer construction also helps reduce outside noise. Worth asking about if you’re near the 5, the 15 or the 78.
How long does the whole process take?
Consultations are usually available the same week. Once you approve the proposal, your windows are built to your exact openings at our Upland factory, which typically takes about four weeks from measure to installation. Most whole-home installs finish in a single day.
Do you offer anything besides white?
Yes. We manufacture black windows, and offer premium vinyl finishes in Bronze, Sable, Slate, Universal Brown and Sandalwood. Custom colors are available beyond that range. If you have HOA requirements or you’re matching an existing palette, bring the spec to your consultation and we’ll work from there.
WHAT CHANGES
What Your House Feels Like After.
The windows do their work all day. Evening is when you’re home to feel it.
The street goes quiet.
Dual-pane glass takes out most of what you hear through a single pane today. If you back onto the 5, the 15, or a flight path, the optional Sound Package adds 50% more glass in two different thicknesses.
The hot room stops being the hot room.
Single-pane glass keeps radiating the day's heat back into the room long after sunset. LoĒ³-366 reflects that heat before it gets in, and a 1/2" warm-edge spacer slows what moves through the edge of the glass.
The sliding glass door opens with one hand.
Anti-friction composite sliding pads instead of metal rollers, and a cam lock that actually seals. The door you've been shouldering open for nine years just opens.
Most window companies buy from a factory. We are the factory.
Most whole-home installs finish in one day.

SERVICE AREA
Ready for a Quieter, Cooler House?
Every summer you wait costs you twice.
Once on the bill: single-pane glass keeps pushing your SDG&E charges up through every heat wave. Then again on the window itself: failed seals keep fogging, and a window that is only stiff this year is stuck next year. Wait long enough and it fails in August. Then you’re not choosing a company, you’re taking the first one with an opening.
