Window Repair in Hillcrest.
Early 1900s bungalows next to new condos — two completely different window problems.

What window repair looks like in Hillcrest
Hillcrest mixes early 1900s bungalows with newer condo buildings along University Avenue and the surrounding blocks. That means two different jobs on the same street: restoring wood sash and period hardware in the old housing, and replacing failed insulated units and balcony door hardware in the newer buildings.
📍 Hillcrest, CA 92103
Historic bungalow window restoration
The older homes here use wood sash, often with original wavy glass. We reglaze, replace sash cord, repair or replace hardware, and repaint the repair to match, keeping the original window in place.
Newer condos: insulated units and sliders
Condos and apartment buildings in Hillcrest use sealed units and sliding balcony doors. Failed seals, foggy glass, and worn rollers are the common calls. We replace units matched to spec and rebuild slider hardware.
Noise and street-facing windows
University Avenue traffic is loud, and older single pane windows do little to stop it. When a window is already being repaired, upgrading that opening to insulated glass noticeably reduces street noise.

Do you work on both old bungalows and new condos?
Yes. Historic wood sash restoration and modern insulated unit replacement are both routine work for us.
Can you reduce street noise from University Avenue?
Insulated glass on street-facing openings makes a noticeable difference, and we can upgrade those openings during a repair.
My condo window is foggy — full replacement?
No. If the frame is sound, only the sealed glass unit needs replacing.
Can you match period hardware on an old home?
We source period-appropriate or functionally identical hardware so the repair does not look out of place.
