Window Company in Colton, CA
Meridian Windows & Doors is the window company Colton homeowners call when original aluminum frames and warped slab doors have finally had enough. Most homes here were built between the 1950s and 1970s, and the combination of triple-digit summer heat and Santa Ana wind has aged them hard. We replace and install windows and patio doors with written pricing and a year-long guarantee that actually means something. Call (831) 217-8612 to schedule a free estimate.
Why Colton Homes Are Different
Colton sits in the San Bernardino Valley, below the Cajon Pass, which means two things: summer temperatures that routinely push past 100°F, and Santa Ana winds that barrel through with enough force to drive dust into every gap in a building envelope. On a 1960s tract home with original single-pane aluminum windows, that translates to sealant that cracks early, frames that pit and corrode, and tracks that bind. We replace a lot of windows that are not even broken they have simply baked and warped to the point where they no longer close cleanly.
Walk the Avenues and you will spot the telltale signs: faded bronze aluminum frames, hazy glass, and doors that drag across the threshold. The housing stock is mostly single-story ranch and early suburban tract, which makes replacement reasonably straightforward, but the wind-driven dust means we spend extra attention on flashing and perimeter seal. A leak in Colton is rarely a one-time event; it is a slow, persistent intrusion of fine grit that works its way under the frame and loosens everything above it. That is why our crews on Colton jobs prioritize a tight mechanical fit before anything cosmetic.
Our Main Colton Services
Colton homeowners call us for two jobs more than anything else: pulling out tired aluminum windows and replacing them with modern units, and swapping out old patio doors that have warped or corroded past repair. Each service has its own Colton page with local specifics and pricing breakdowns.
Window Replacement in Colton
Replacement usually means extracting the original aluminum frame, addressing any rot or termite damage at the sill, and setting a new unit with fresh flashing and sealant rated for Colton’s temperature swings. In ranch homes from the 1960s, we often find the rough opening has settled out of square, so shimming and leveling eat up most of the labor. Read the full breakdown on our Window Replacement in Colton page.
Window Installation in Colton
Installation applies when homeowners want a new opening where none exists, or when a full remodel is under way. The challenge in Colton is matching the new framing to older wall construction: many 1950s homes here used 2×4 studs with minimal sheathing, which means we add blocking and weather barrier before the window ever goes in. See how we approach new openings in older walls on our Window Installation in Colton page.
Patio Door Installation in Colton
Colton’s thin wood slab patio doors have a hard life: the sun hits them for ten hours a day, and the Santa Anas push against them every fall. By the time we are called, the door rarely sits square in its opening. We set new patio doors on reinforced sills and use rollers rated for the wind load, so the door opens with one hand ten years from now. Learn more on our Patio Door Installation in Colton page.

What pushes a Colton job to the higher end is usually rot repair at the sill and the extra time needed to square up rough openings in homes that have settled over 50 to 70 years. Whatever the number, it goes on paper before work starts, and that written price does not move at the door.
