Here in the United States, we have a bit of a bad reputation for just throwing things out and buying new, rather than repairing broken items. The reasons for this probably vary from person to person. Maybe someone doesn’t know how to do the necessary repairs, or perhaps it seems easier just to buy a new item. Or maybe it’s simply that a person likes to have new things. We suspect that many people are in the first category when it comes to their patio doors. They would like to save some money and repair their doors themselves when they become difficult to open and close, but they just don’t know how. Fortunately, it’s easy to make the adjustment that will likely help your patio door open and close freely again. All it takes is a few minutes of your time and a Phillips head …

San Diego Customer Has a Lot to Say about Her Experience with BM Windows
Our company gets a lot of customer reviews on sites like Yelp, Google, and Facebook. Most of them are short and to the point. But, every once in a while, a customer leaves a detailed, lengthy review. This was the case with Kathleen P. in San Diego, who we worked with a couple of months ago. Kathleen is one of those homeowners who does her research before she even starts reaching out to companies to get bids. Before calling us, she already knew that she wanted Anlin replacement windows. Her research likely informed her about Anlin’s great reputation in the replacement window industry, and about how they have a great warranty and provide homes with amazing energy savings and sound suppression technology. Since Anlin is only sold by select authorized dealers like BM Windows, narrowing down …
Looking for Bayview Replacement Windows for Your San Diego Home?

Can I Get Replacement Window Prices Over the Phone?
Let’s talk replacement window prices. We get a lot of calls and emails from potential customers and one of the first things they ask us is, “How much do replacement windows cost?” Usually, they are just asking for a general estimate. They’ll say something like, “I have 15 average-sized windows and a sliding patio door I need replaced. Can you give me a pricing estimate?” Unfortunately, it’s difficult to answer this question over the phone. Sure, we could give a pricing range, but it will be a very large range that won’t be particularly helpful. There are several reasons for this: Every Replacement Window and Door We Sell Is Custom Not every homeowner is aware of this, but there are no “standard” sizes of replacement windows. Therefore, there are no standard prices. When we come to …
Why We’ve Sold Vinyl Replacement Windows in San Diego for More than a Decade
Sometimes we are asked why we only sell vinyl replacement windows in San Diego (windows with vinyl frames). After all, there are other options on the market, such as wood windows, fiberglass windows, aluminum windows, and composite windows. Each of these options has its benefits, but for several important reasons, we have chosen to sell only vinyl replacement windows in San Diego. Energy Efficiency Vinyl replacement windows are some of the most energy-efficient windows on the market. Many homeowners with older San Diego homes are replacing their aluminum windows with new, vinyl windows because they are tired of running their air conditioners all summer and their heaters all night during the winter. Windows with aluminum frames simply don’t keep out the heat and cold well. That’s …
