We’re guessing that replacement windows and doors don’t make it onto many Christmas wish lists. They certainly aren’t as “sexy” as the new Lexus with the big red bow on the top that you see in all of the holiday commercials, and they’re difficult (well, impossible) to wrap up and put under your Christmas tree. But they are definitely one of those gifts that keep on giving! So maybe you should consider adding them to your Christmas list, or consider giving yourself the gift of new windows and doors this Christmas. Replacement windows and doors from BM Windows have a lot going for them. Not only will they help you save on your heating and cooling costs due to their energy efficiency, but installing them in your San Diego home can also increase its value.

Financing Your Replacement Windows and Doors: What’s the Best Option for San Diego Homeowners?
In the past several years, a popular way to finance the cost of replacement windows and doors has been through the HERO program. You may have heard of it—we used to use it at BM Windows until we realized the drawbacks associated with it. Basically, the HERO program is a financing option that allows homeowners to purchase new windows and doors with no money down, and pay for them in installments through their property tax bill. Sounds great, right? What you need to understand about financing home improvement projects through the HERO program is that doing so creates a tax lien on your home. This can cause a problem if you ever want to refinance your home. Proponents of the HERO program have also claimed that if you sell your home, HERO payments can be transferred to the next owner.

Netflix Show “White Gold” Illustrates Why It’s Important to Find a Reputable Replacement Window Company in San Diego
Recently, we heard about a Netflix original series called White Gold. We were intrigued because the show is about a replacement window company, and we were curious to see how the replacement window industry would be portrayed. Unfortunately, the show doesn’t paint the industry in a very positive light.

They lie, swindle, and prey on the elderly. They take advantage of their friends and denigrate their competition. Basically, the sales staff on the show is not opposed to using any sales tactic, no matter how dishonest, if it will result in selling replacement windows. We realize that the show is a work of …

However, this year, you may have noticed that your electricity bill was exceptionally high. It’s not your imagination. Rates from San Diego’s major electricity providers, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) and Southern California Edison (SCE), both hit consumers of electricity with substantial rate hikes. At the beginning of 2017, both SDG&E and SCE changed the tiered rate structure, which means San Diego residents are now paying higher prices for much of the energy they’re using. SDG&E residential customers can be expected to pay almost 11% more this year for electricity than they did last year. The reason for …
