AfterWindow Company in Hillsborough, CA
Juniper Windows & Doors handles window replacement, window installation, and door replacement for Hillsborough homeowners who expect a written price before any work begins. Hillsborough is not a tract-home town. The housing stock runs large, custom, and older, with a mix of mid-century ranch styles and significant estate properties set back from winding, tree-lined roads. That means standard off-the-shelf sizing rarely fits, and crews need to plan for long driveways, mature landscaping, and homes where every opening matters architecturally. Call (682) 281-2168 and we’ll walk you through what your project actually needs.
Why Hillsborough Homes Are Different
Hillsborough sits on the San Francisco Peninsula, where summer fog and winter rain push moisture against window frames and door thresholds for months at a time. Wood frames that look fine from the street are often soft at the sills once we pull the trim. That is the single most common finding on our Hillsborough walkthroughs, and it changes scope and price. We write the full number down before we start, so a rotted sill never becomes a surprise change order.
The terrain matters too. Many Hillsborough properties are built into slopes, which means some elevations catch full afternoon sun while others sit in shade and damp. We choose glass packages accordingly, because a west-facing wall on a hillside lot takes a different U-factor than a north-facing one tucked under oaks. And because so many Hillsborough homes are custom, we often order exact-size replacement windows rather than pulling from stock. The product lines we work with, including PGT and Therma-Tru, support that without forcing a compromise in sightlines or finish.
Hillsborough also has strict design review for visible exterior changes. Before any permit is pulled, homeowners often need architectural approval for new window styles or door materials. We help you understand what the town will ask for, and we plan the job so the work meets both the letter of the code and the look of the house.
Our Main Hillsborough Services
Most Hillsborough homeowners reach out for one of three things, and each has its own dedicated page with local pricing and timelines. Here is what to expect on each.
Window Replacement in Hillsborough
Replacement in Hillsborough usually means pulling an old wood or aluminum frame and fitting a new unit into the same opening, often with custom sizing to match the original sightlines. On older Hillsborough homes we frequently find the original rough openings are not square, which is exactly why a written measurement and a locked price matter. The right install accounts for the house the way it is, not the way the blueprint says it should be. See Window Replacement in Hillsborough for local cost ranges by window type.
Window Installation in Hillsborough
New-construction and addition work in Hillsborough means installing windows into fresh rough openings, usually as part of a remodel or a new build. The job requires close coordination with the framing crew, the waterproofing, and the town’s inspection schedule. We install to the opening as built, flashing for our wet winters, and we document every step with photos you can see from your phone. Window Installation in Hillsborough covers what new-construction pricing looks like on the Peninsula.
Door Replacement in Hillsborough
Front doors in Hillsborough carry a lot of weight, literally and architecturally. Many homes have oversized entries, custom sidelights, or solid wood doors that have been swelling and sticking in the damp for decades. Replacing them correctly often means rebuilding the jamb, not just swapping the slab. Fiberglass and steel options from Therma-Tru hold up better to wet winters than the originals, and we can match the proportions so the entry still feels right for the house. Read Door Replacement in Hillsborough for a full breakdown.

Hillsborough prices run toward the upper end because of the custom sizing, the design review process, and the condition of the original frames we uncover. Our quote accounts for those local realities up front. If we find rot or out-of-square openings, the number already covers the fix.
