Why Laguna Woods Village chooses
Sonshine.

Laguna Woods Village makes up roughly 90% of the city of Laguna Woods, and many of its homes still have their original single-pane aluminum windows, which conduct heat, sweat with condensation, and look dated. We replace them with retrofit windows — white vinyl frames, low-E insulated glass, smooth sliding operation, and a screen included — for a cleaner, cooler, lower-maintenance home that keeps the Village's tidy look. The Village has a careful alteration-approval process that keeps its neighborhoods looking their best, and we know it well — we're already approved to work here, fully insured to the community's requirements, and we manage the entire HOA approval and city permitting process from start to finish, so the whole thing is simple, fast, and painless for you.

The standard for custom glass in Orange County since 1977 — with our own installers, our own shop, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on every project. In-home consultations and quotes returned in 24–48 hours.

We've done the work — and the paperwork.

Laguna Woods Village has a careful alteration-approval process that protects the community's consistent, well-kept look — and we know it inside and out. We've already completed retrofit window installations inside the Village, we're approved with the HOA, and we carry all the insurance the community requires. We handle the approval and permitting for you from start to finish — so your only job is to pick your windows.

One call to start

Reach out and we'll come measure the job. From there, the approval process is ours to manage.

Approvals, handled

We take care of the Village's alteration and mutual consent requirements and provide every credential the community asks for.

Permits, handled

City permitting and inspections are coordinated by us — you don't file anything or make a single trip.

Installed & closed out

Our own installers fit your new windows, and we wrap up the final paperwork with the Village.

Prefer to be hands-off, or stay involved? Either works. We can guide you through the steps or run the entire approval and permitting process on your behalf — whichever makes it easiest for you.

The right window for the Village

White vinyl, low-E sliders — built for 55+ living.

The original aluminum windows in most Village homes are single-pane: they conduct heat, sweat with condensation, and look dated. Our retrofit windows drop into the existing opening — no stucco damage, no interior mess — and give you a clean, modern, low-maintenance window that's easy to operate.

It's the most popular upgrade we install here, and it's a noticeable difference the first warm afternoon.

  • White vinyl frame — won't corrode, never needs painting
  • Low-E insulated glass — blocks heat and glare, lowers cooling bills
  • Smooth-gliding slider, easy to open and close
  • Custom-fit insect screen included
  • Retrofit installation into the existing frame
  • Replaces the original single-pane aluminum windows
  • Lifetime warranty on materials and labor (excluding breakage)
Straight answers

What affects the cost of your retrofit windows

Every manor is a little different, so the honest answer is that your price depends on your windows — not a one-size-fits-all number. Here's what moves it, so there are no surprises when we hand you a quote:

  • How many windows you replace — a single slider versus a whole manor
  • Window size — a wide living-room slider uses more glass and a sturdier frame than a bedroom window
  • Glass options — standard low-E, obscure privacy glass for baths and bedrooms, or grid patterns
  • Retrofit vs. full-frame — retrofit windows drop into your existing opening, so you skip the stucco repair and interior patching a full replacement adds
  • Approval & permits — already handled and included, with no separate paperwork fee tacked on

Because the Village has its own window styles and floor plans, the only way to give you a real figure is to see the openings. We come out, measure each one, confirm the configuration, and hand you a written quote — the price you sign is the price you pay, approval and permits included.
