San Diego Customer Writes Glowing Five-Star Review After Replacement Window Installation
We recently completed a replacement window installation for Frank M., a new customer in San Diego, and he was nice enough to take the time to leave us a review on Yelp. He starts his review by saying, “THIS IS A TRUE FIVE STAR REVIEW (…not a ‘their service was pretty good and they asked me to leave a good review’). Frank was one of those customers that did his fair share of shopping around for replacement windows. He looked at what the big box stores had to offer, as well as several other independent replacement window companies in San Diego. He says he liked that he could go to our website and find other houses nearby that had windows installed by our company. (You can do this, too, by going to our location finder.)

And leaking doesn’t just refer to water—windows can also leak air or allow in insects. People also replace their windows and doors for energy efficiency reasons. They realize that not only …
A Brief Lesson on Bulletproof Glass
We use this blog most often to inform our current and potential customers about the replacement window and door products we sell in San Diego. But this time, we wanted to do a “just for fun” post about something of interest to those of us in the glazing industry, even though it’s a product we don’t sell at BM Windows: bulletproof glass. Hopefully you’ll find it interesting too, and maybe learn something new! Bulletproof glass is a specialty glass that could more accurately be called “bullet resistant glass.” No glass is completely bulletproof, but most products out there will keep bullets from penetrating the glass altogether, or at least slow them down to minimize the damage that can be done by bullets. You will find bulletproof glass used most often in places like banks, retail …
