AfterWindow Company in Claremont, CA
Hale Windows & Doors is the Claremont window and door specialist that puts a written price in your hands before any work starts, and backs every job with a 365-Day Done Right Promise. Claremont homes split into two very different worlds: the historic 1900s-1930s Craftsman and Spanish Colonial houses in the Village, where replacement work often needs city preservation review, and the 1950s-1970s tract homes north of Foothill Blvd, where sun and canyon winds have punished original aluminum sliders for decades. If you need window replacement, window repair, or a new front door, call (252) 675-6980 for a free estimate.
Why Claremont Homes Are Different
Claremont sits at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains with a dry, semi-arid climate that puts real stress on windows and doors. Summer days routinely pass 100°F, winter nights dip below freezing, and Santa Ana winds blow down from the foothills at 40+ mph, pushing heat, dust, and dry air through every gap in an old frame. That wind is the hidden problem here: it warps cheap vinyl, dries out seals, and makes proper flashing and weatherstripping a structural requirement, not an energy-efficiency talking point.
The housing stock changes dramatically depending on which side of Foothill Blvd you live on. The Village holds some of the oldest homes in the Pomona Valley, mostly 1900s-1930s bungalows and two-story Craftsman or Spanish Colonial Revival houses with original double-hung wood windows, true divided lites, and solid wood doors with transoms. North of Foothill, tract homes from the 1950s-1970s dominate, and many still carry their original single-pane aluminum sliders with seals that are now brittle from age and heat. Each zone calls for a different approach, and we quote them differently too.
Our Main Claremont Services
Most Claremont homeowners call us for one of three jobs: window replacement, window repair, or front door replacement. Each has its own page with local pricing and the permit realities for your side of town, but here is the short version of what each involves.
Window Replacement in Claremont
Replacing windows in Claremont starts with knowing which code zone your home falls in. In the Village, the city’s historic-preservation rules treat window replacement as a visible change, so a permit and sometimes Cultural Resource Commission sign-off is required unless you use like-for-like true divided lites and wood frames. We have seen homeowners get vinyl quotes that later fail city review. North of Foothill, the job is usually simpler, but the wind loads still demand properly rated assemblies.

Window Repair in Claremont
Window repair in Claremont is often an emergency disguised as a minor annoyance. Cracked glass, failed seals, and warped frames let Santa Ana wind blow dust and heat straight into your home, and a window that will not close is a security issue, not just a comfort problem. We repair or replace hardware, reglaze sashes, swap out failed insulated glass units, and rebuild rotted wood frames on the old Village homes. Every repair carries a written guarantee, and if the repair fails, the second visit is free. Window Repair in Claremont
Front Door Replacement in Claremont
A front door replacement in Claremont has to do two jobs at once: match the architectural character of your home and stand up to the foothill wind and summer heat. In the Village, that often means a solid wood door with a transom, or a faithful reproduction that passes preservation review. North of Foothill, homeowners usually want better sealing, better insulation, and a door that will not warp in direct sun. We install from professional-grade lines including Therma-Tru, and every job gets a written price before we start. Front Door Replacement in Claremont

Brands We Service in Claremont
We install and service windows and doors from eight professional-grade lines, including PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows. That product depth matters in Claremont because a wind-rated PGT impact window and a wood true-divided-lite sash are completely different answers to different problems. For more on the full line, see our brands.

What pushes the price up in Claremont is usually the historic side of the equation: true divided lites, wood frames, and preservation review add cost that a standard vinyl quote will not include. That is exactly why we hand you a written line-item price before any work begins, so the quote you get is the price you pay.
