AfterWindow Company in Sebastopol, CA
Window and door work in Sebastopol starts with moisture. This town sits in the coastal fog belt where summer mornings can stay wet until 10 a.m. and winter brings months of steady damp. That means every job we quote here, whether it’s replacing a failed window in a 1920s farmhouse or hanging a new entry door on a 1950s bungalow, gets priced around what the fog has already done to the framing, the sill, and the threshold. Call (903) 354-7134 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Sebastopol Homes Are Different
Sebastopol grew as an apple town, and its housing stock reflects that. The neighborhoods around Florence Avenue, Bodega Avenue, and the older streets near the Laguna de Santa Rosa are full of late-1800s to mid-20th-century wood-frame farmhouses, bungalows, and cottages. Many of these homes still carry their original wood-sash single-pane windows or early aluminum retrofits from the 1960s and 70s. The rough openings on these older agricultural buildings are rarely square and rarely standard. We regularly see openings that have drifted a half-inch or more out of level over 80 years of seasonal soil movement and framing absorption.
That fog belt drives the second difference. Sebastopol averages measurably higher humidity and more persistent summer marine layer than Santa Rosa, just seven miles east. The result is that insulated-glass seals fail faster here, wood rot at unprotected sills and thresholds is more aggressive, and doors rack or stick as the framing expands and contracts through seasonal moisture cycles. Homes on the west and north sides near the Laguna get hit hardest. A window job on a west-side farmhouse often starts as a simple replacement and becomes a sill and king-stud repair once the old unit comes out and the rot reveals itself.
Our Main Sebastopol Services
Most Sebastopol homeowners reach out to us for one of three reasons: aging windows that have clouded over or rotted at the sill, a new construction or addition that needs windows installed right the first time, or an entry door that no longer seals, latches, or swings the way it should. Each service has its own Sebastopol page with specific pricing, timelines, and local details.
Window Replacement in Sebastopol
Replacing windows in a Sebastopol farmhouse means pulling the old sash, inspecting the framing for moisture damage, and fitting a new unit that actually matches the rough opening, which is rarely a stock size. The fog belt accelerates seal failure, so we lean toward low-e glass (a thin coating that reflects heat back into the room in winter and back out in summer) and frames that handle constant humidity. Read the full breakdown on our Window Replacement in Sebastopol page.
Window Installation in Sebastopol
For additions, remodels, and new builds, window installation in Sebastopol means getting the flashing detail right before the siding goes on. The marine moisture that blows in off the coast will find any gap. We install new-construction windows with proper sill pan flashing and head flashing so the first wet winter doesn’t become a warranty claim. See the full scope and pricing on our Window Installation in Sebastopol page.
Door Installation in Sebastopol
Entry doors in Sebastopol take the brunt of the seasonal humidity cycle. Wood doors swell in winter and shrink in summer, which means locks stop aligning, drafts appear, and thresholds wear unevenly. Installing a new door often requires re-shimming the jamb and replacing a rotted threshold before the new unit goes in. Get the details on our Door Installation in Sebastopol page.

When we pull an old window on a 1910s farmhouse near the Laguna and find rot that wicked up from the sill into the king studs, that repair gets added as a line item in writing before any work starts. No revised invoices at the door, ever. Your written price is your price.

FAQs About Window Company in Sebastopol
We schedule every Sebastopol job with a committed arrival window, not a four-hour “sometime between” range. Most estimates are scheduled within a few days. For a clouded, drafty, or stuck window that can’t wait, call (903) 354-7134 and a live person answers, 24/7.
Replacing an existing window in the same opening typically falls under Sebastopol’s standard allowance and does not require a permit. Changing the opening size, adding a new window, or doing structural framing repair does. We tell you upfront before any work starts and pull permits when required.
Every job comes with our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If a seal fails, a door racks, or any part of the installation is not right within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no charge. It’s in writing and handed to you at job completion. Call (903) 354-7134 for a free estimate on your Sebastopol windows or doors.

What Sebastopol Customers Say
"Replaced eight drafty old windows that were basically single pane. The house is warmer already and the street noise is way down. Crew was on time both days and the price was exactly the quote."
- Harold Bemis"Our energy bill in summer was brutal. New windows made a real dent in it. Salesman wasn't pushy and didn't do the fake "today only" discount thing the others tried."
- Bethany Oh"Two bedroom windows that never opened and one that wouldn't stay up. All replaced in an afternoon. The crew was clean, hauled off the old frames, and the quote held."
- Colette Rhee
