Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Los Angeles’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company

The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That is why we like him, and that’s why every eligible window and door job we take in Los Angeles gets permitted and inspected before we call it done. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When you hire us for Windows & Doors work, you’re getting a name that’s on the truck, not a franchise dispatching strangers.

We work all over Los Angeles, from Koreatown walk-ups to hillside lots in Echo Park where the Hillside Ordinance adds grading and drainage requirements on top of standard window permits. That local knowledge matters. A window installed wrong on a soft-story apartment building can become a shear-wall problem. We know the difference because we’ve done the retrofits. Reviews from Los Angeles homeowners mention the same things: the written change orders, the crew showing up when we said they would, and a live person answering the phone at (877) 610-1318.

Our Windows & Doors Services in Los Angeles

Window Installation

New window installation across Los Angeles usually means working around stucco exteriors from the 1960s, wood siding from the 1920s, or post-war ranch framing in the Valley. We set every window with proper flashing and seismic anchoring so it doesn’t rattle loose in the next Northridge-sized shaker. We also carry Andersen and Marvin product lines, so you can look up exactly what’s going into your walls.

Door Installation

Front door installation in Los Angeles runs $4,720-$11,800. That covers a solid pre-hung entry, hardware, threshold, and trim. If your door is on a soft-story building inside the city’s Mandatory Seismic Retrofit Ordinance zone, we coordinate the door work with the structural scope so nothing gets double-punched. One permit, one crew, one written scope.

Window Replacement

Replacement windows in Los Angeles make the biggest single difference on summer cooling bills, especially in neighborhoods without mature tree canopy like parts of the Valley. We remove the old sashes, inspect the rough opening for dry rot or termite damage, and install dual-pane Low-E units that meet Title 24 energy requirements. Most replacements go in within one day per room.

Impact Windows & Doors

For homes in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones (Bel Air, Tarzana, the Palisades), impact-rated windows are not an upgrade; they’re code. California’s WUI requirements call for ember-resistant assemblies and tempered glazing that won’t shatter from heat exposure. Impact window installation in Los Angeles starts around $9,440 and goes up based on openings. We pull the Fire Department sign-offs and get the inspection scheduled before you have to chase anyone.

Trusted Brands We Service in Los Angeles

We install and service windows and doors from Andersen and Marvin, and we keep common hardware, weatherstripping, and replacement sashes in local supply rotation so Los Angeles customers are not waiting three weeks for a part out of a warehouse in Texas. For hardscape and exterior work that often abuts door thresholds and entry paths, we also handle Fence Installation in Los Angeles and Driveway & Pavers in Los Angeles. Same crew standard, same written change orders. If you bring us a written estimate from another Los Angeles contractor, we’ll give you a free second opinion on it.

Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Los Angeles Homes

• Fogged or failed dual-pane seals: LA’s temperature swings between coastal marine layer mornings and 95-degree Valley afternoons stress window seals hard. Once the argon leaks out and condensation forms between panes, the energy performance is gone and the sash needs replacement, not a wipe-down.
• Seismic drift on older openings: In pre-1978 wood-frame buildings (very common in Koreatown and Silver Lake), years of small tremors shift rough openings out of square. A new window installed without re-squaring the framing will bind, leak, or crack the glass within a season.
• Soft-story pressure on storefront and entry doors: Dingbat apartment buildings with tuck-under parking put enormous lateral load on ground-floor door assemblies. If the building is Tier 1 retrofit-listed, the door frame may need steel reinforcement before a new door goes in. We coordinate that in-house.
• Dry rot at hillside sills: Homes along the Hollywood Hills and Santa Monica Mountains get hit with wind-driven rain in winter, then months of zero moisture. Wood sills and door thresholds rot at the bottom edge where water pools against stucco. We replace the framing, not just cover it with caulk.
