AfterFast, Reliable Windows & Doors Across West Hollywood
Replacing windows or doors in West Hollywood means working with a building department that runs its own plan-check queue, its own inspectors, and tenant-habitability rules most contractors never deal with in neighboring Los Angeles. We know that because we work in West Hollywood regularly, and we pull permits here the right way the first time. If you need new windows, a replacement door, or impact-rated glass for a dingbat apartment or courtyard bungalow, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll get you a written estimate.
Window replacement in West Hollywood homes typically runs $4,500 to $15,000 depending on the number of openings and whether you need impact glass. A full impact window installation, common for the city’s older mid-century buildings, generally falls between $8,000 and $25,000. You’ll get a line-item quote before any work begins, not after.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is West Hollywood’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
Tom Barrett puts his name on every job. He founded this company in 1998, raised his sons in it, and they run the crews on-site most days. West Hollywood homeowners and property managers deal with a lot of out-of-town outfits and dispatch centers. We’re not that. When you call, you reach a live person. When something needs attention after the job, one call brings Tom back. That’s the 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on every contract.
West Hollywood’s permitting process catches plenty of contractors off guard. The city has its own plan check, separate from LADBS, and its own inspectors who enforce tenant-habitability rules under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance. We work through that system regularly. No vague claims here: every eligible job includes permits pulled and inspections signed. If a price changes, it arrives as a written change order before work proceeds, never as a surprise at the end.
We also stand behind what we install with named brands you can look up. Simonton, PGT, and CGI windows have documented Miami-Dade and Florida product approvals, which is what West Hollywood’s hillside-adjacent properties and multi-unit buildings actually need when windows face the Santa Ana wind corridor. Ask anyone on your street, or look up Tom Barrett’s license number yourself. It’s published.
Our Windows & Doors Services in West Hollywood
Window Installation
New window installation in West Hollywood often means working around occupied units and shared walls. We coordinate access early, keep work areas clean, and handle the egress details that older courtyard apartments and dingbat buildings require. Whether it’s a single window in a 1940s bungalow court or a full multi-unit replacement, the installation follows the same rule: scope in writing, change orders in writing.
Door Installation
Doors in West Hollywood see a lot: dry summers, coastal fog that pushes in from the west, and thousands of open-close cycles on rental units. We install entry doors, interior doors, and patio doors sized correctly for stucco openings that were often framed oddly sixty years ago. A proper install means no gaps, no binding, and a threshold that doesn’t leak when winter rains arrive.
Window Replacement
Replacing old aluminum single-pane windows in a 1950s West Hollywood dingbat usually means dealing with tuck-under parking clearances below and neighbors above. We know those buildings. The upgrade to double-pane or impact-rated glass cuts heat gain through those big west-facing windows along Santa Monica Boulevard-adjacent streets and drops noise from Fountain Avenue traffic. Most replacement projects in West Hollywood run $4,500 to $15,000.
Impact Windows & Doors
For West Hollywood property owners who want hurricane-rated protection without visible shutters, impact windows and doors are the cleanest route. PGT and CGI impact glass carries Miami-Dade and Florida product approvals. In West Hollywood it’s as much about sound reduction and security as storm protection, especially for ground-floor units on streets like Romaine or Norton where foot traffic is constant. A full impact window installation typically runs $8,000 to $25,000 depending on opening count and frame type.

We stock and install windows and doors from Simonton, PGT, and CGI. These are brands with published product approvals and long service lives, not mystery labels off a van.

Our Windows & Doors team handles the install, the paperwork, and the follow-up.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in West Hollywood Homes
- Sticking sash windows in 1920s-1940s courtyard bungalows. Decades of dry-season shrinkage and winter rain heave in the expansive clay soils on the hillside-adjacent northern lots tweak frames out of square. The window binds, the lock no longer lines up, and the fix isn’t force, it’s replacement or re-framing done right.
- Fogged or failed seals in west-facing double-pane units. Afternoon sun beats on windows facing toward the Pacific. Over time the seal fails and condensation builds between panes. Once the seal goes, cleaning won’t fix it. The unit needs replacement.
- Corroded aluminum frames on 1950s-1960s dingbat buildings. Salt air and decades of sprinkler overspray eat at old aluminum. Frames pit, corners loosen, and the glass eventually loses its hold. We see this constantly in buildings near West Hollywood’s dense multi-unit stock.
- Doors that no longer close squarely after soft-story retrofit work. When a building gets steel moment frames installed for earthquake compliance, the structure settles differently. Doors that closed fine for forty years suddenly bind. We handle post-retrofit door adjustments and replacements across West Hollywood.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in West Hollywood, FL
You deserve real numbers. Window replacement in West Hollywood generally runs $4,500 to $15,000 for a typical home, with impact window installation at $8,000 to $25,000 depending on opening count, frame material, and whether you choose PGT, CGI, or Simonton product lines. Door installation starts around $800 and moves up based on glass, hardware, and whether the rough opening needs re-framing. The two biggest cost drivers here are the city’s plan-check and inspection requirements for opening changes, and the age of the framing you’re mounting into. We give written line-item quotes with no trip charge inside the county. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule a free estimate.

Yes. We work throughout West Hollywood, including the areas around Santa Monica Boulevard, Fountain Avenue, and the northern streets near the hillside, and we serve the 90069 zip code. The city is small geographically, but the building stock varies block by block, and we know the difference between a 1920s courtyard bungalow and a 1960s dingbat.
For a broken ground-floor window or a door that won’t secure, we treat that as a priority and get a crew out as fast as the schedule allows. We do not promise same-day service, because we’re not going to lie to you. But a live person answers the phone 24/7, and we’ll tell you honestly when we can be there. Call (877) 610-1318.
Window replacement in West Hollywood runs $4,500 to $15,000, and impact window installation runs $8,000 to $25,000. Those ranges are similar to Miramar and West Park, but West Hollywood’s separate permitting universe often adds a bit more time and documentation than an unincorporated LA County job. You get what you pay for on the permit side: inspections that actually happen. Call for an exact quote, estimates are free.
Yes. Every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right with one call. The manufacturer’s warranties on Simonton, PGT, and CGI products are between you and the brand, and we handle the paperwork so it’s filed properly. If something’s wrong, Tom wants to know about it. He lives twenty minutes away.
