PGT Construction in Lompico, CA | Viceroy Construction
We provide independent PGT window and door installation, repair, and retrofitting across Lompico, including PGT repair in Felton nearby, and we do it with a working knowledge of how these products hold up in a redwood canyon. The thing that separates PGT work here from anywhere else is access: narrow, switchback driveways and steep private roads dictate how materials get delivered, how equipment gets staged, and how long the job actually takes. Lompico homeowners call us at (877) 358-6557 because we plan for that before the first window comes off the truck.
Viceroy Construction is not a PGT dealer or factory-authorized service center. We’re an independent general contractor who installs, services, and retrofits PGT aluminum-clad wood windows, vinyl WinGuard lines, sliding glass doors, and entry doors, and we also offer Lompico Home Remodeling services. That independence means we recommend what’s right for your home, not what clears a manufacturer quota. If you need PGT work done in Lompico, start with a phone call and a free estimate.
Why Lompico Residents Choose Us for PGT Service
Neil Drummond grew up in the Saratoga foothills and trained at West Valley College’s building trades program, where framing, concrete, and structural coursework gave him a foundation he still uses when scoping window and door replacements on canyon slopes. That background matters here. Lompico homes sit on graded slopes, on pier-and-post foundations, in shaded drainages where moisture hangs around. A window that works fine on a flat Sunnyvale lot behaves differently when it’s facing north on a Lompico hillside.
Our crew has replaced PGT units in mid-century cabins and newer fire-rebuilds across 95005. We know where aluminum-clad frames rot first, which vinyl sashes bind in summer heat, and how redwood duff works its way into sliding door tracks. When we source parts, we use OEM PGT components for critical items like rollers, weatherstrip, and glazing seals, and we’ll tell you plainly when a repair beats a replacement, or when a unit’s age says it’s time to swap it out. We walk every job ourselves before we call it done. The details you don’t see are the ones that matter most.

Common PGT Construction Problems We Solve in Lompico
- Rot at the sill and jamb intersections on aluminum-clad wood frames. North-facing Lompico slopes hold fog and winter rain longer than south exposures, and that moisture works into the joint where the aluminum cladding meets the wood. We see this constantly on older cabins. The fix involves cutting back decay, flashing the rough opening correctly, and reinstalling with drainage in mind.
- Warped and binding vinyl sashes from canyon temperature swings. Lompico’s dry summers push daytime heat that softens vinyl, and overnight canyon cooling contracts it. Over years, that cycle warps frames and sashes until they stick or won’t latch. We rebuild or replace the affected units and reset the reveals so the window operates cleanly.
- Failed glazing seals and fogged glass on older PGT units. Thermal cycling here is relentless, especially on west-facing windows that bake in afternoon sun. Seals fail, argon escapes, and you get permanent fog between the panes. We replace the insulated glass unit when the frame is sound, or the full window when it isn’t.
- Corroded and binding sliding door rollers and tracks. Redwood duff, grit, and moisture blow onto canyon decks year-round. It collects in PGT sliding door tracks, grinds rollers down, and seizes the hardware. We clean, replace rollers with OEM or equivalent parts, and adjust the door so it glides instead of fighting you.
- Drafts and air leakage around PGT entry doors after years of settlement. Lompico homes on pier-and-post foundations shift with winter saturation and summer drying. Doors that sealed fine ten years ago now leak. We re-shim, replace weatherstrip, and when the slab or threshold has moved, we adjust or replace the door to restore the seal.
PGT Service in Lompico: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Lompico is a narrow, steep-walled redwood canyon in the Santa Cruz Mountains, unincorporated and off the county grid in places. That geography shapes every PGT window and door job we do here. The steep, private driveways and limited turnarounds off roads like West Drive and Lompico Road mean a standard window delivery truck often can’t reach the house. We stage materials at the top of the drive, shuttle them down with compact equipment or by hand, and build that time into the estimate. On a typical three-window replacement, access logistics can add a half day or more compared to a valley lot in Saratoga or Campbell. It’s not the build that’s hard in Lompico. It’s getting to the build. Cal Fire’s wildland-urban interface rules and Chapter 7A ignition-resistant requirements also dictate which PGT products make sense here: tempered or multi-pane glazing, tight seals, and frames that resist ember intrusion aren’t optional upgrades. They’re the baseline. When a homeowner in Lompico asks us which PGT line to choose, the answer starts with the driveway and the defensible-space clearance, not the brochure.
PGT Models & Products We Service in Lompico
We service the full range of PGT products commonly found in Lompico homes: PGT Aluminum-Clad Wood windows, the PGT Vinyl Series including WinGuard impact-rated lines, PGT Sliding Glass Doors, and PGT Entry Doors. For critical components like rollers, weatherstrip, and glazing seals, we source OEM PGT parts when they’re available. For non-structural hardware where an aftermarket equivalent meets or exceeds the original spec, we use that instead and tell you why. Our goal is a straightforward repair-vs-replace recommendation based on the unit’s age, condition, and how it’s been stressed by Lompico’s climate. PGT products often last decades with proper maintenance, and we’d rather keep a solid unit in service than sell you windows you don’t need.

AfterPGT Service Pricing in Lompico
Window and door work in Lompico carries costs that valley homeowners never see, and those costs are real. Here’s what to expect for the most common PGT scopes:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Window Replacement | $4,500 – $15,000 |
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000 – $25,000 |
| Roof Repair | $400 – $1,800 |
What drives the number is access, the condition of the rough opening, and whether the job is a straight swap or a retrofit that requires framing work. A fogged-glass replacement on a reachable first-floor window is a different job than three rotted sills on a hillside cabin with no truck access. Our free estimate includes a site walk, a written line-item quote, and a clear explanation of what’s repair versus replace. Call (877) 358-6557 to schedule yours. There’s no charge and no pressure.

FAQs – PGT Construction in Lompico
Fogged glass means the factory glazing seal has failed and the insulated glass unit has lost its gas fill and desiccant capacity. If the frame and sash are structurally sound, we can replace just the IGU and restore clarity and energy performance. If the frame shows rot, warping, or seal failure at the joints, full window replacement is the honest recommendation. Call (877) 358-6557 and we’ll assess your specific units and give you a repair-vs-replace quote for free.
Lompico sits in the wildland-urban interface, so Cal Fire defensible-space rules and Chapter 7A ignition-resistant building standards apply to replacement windows and doors. That means ember-resistant glazing, multi-pane tempered glass where required, and frames that seal tightly against wind-driven embers. PGT’s impact-rated WinGuard line often makes sense here because it combines impact resistance with the tight seals and heavy glass that wildfire hardening demands. We’ll spec the product that meets both the code and your exposure.
Yes. In Lompico, the usual culprit is redwood duff and grit mixed with winter moisture, which corrodes rollers and clogs tracks. We pull the door, clean the track, replace the rollers with OEM PGT parts or a high-quality equivalent, and adjust the height so the door glides. If the track itself is deformed or the frame has settled, we’ll tell you before doing work that only half-fixes the problem. A call to (877) 358-6557 gets you a straight answer on cost.
We do, regularly. Lompico’s steep, single-lane private driveways and limited turnarounds are part of the job. We stage materials where trucks can safely park, shuttle them down with compact equipment or by hand, and price the access logistics into the estimate up front. You won’t get a surprise upcharge on install day. Our Lompico service area coverage includes the full 95005 ZIP and the outlying canyon roads.
PGT aluminum-clad wood and vinyl windows can last 20 to 30 years in Lompico’s conditions with proper flashing, drainage, and maintenance. The caveat is exposure: north-facing units in deep shade and west-facing units in hot afternoon sun fail at different rates. Seals go first, then hardware, then frames. We’ve seen well-installed PGT units from the 1980s still holding up, and we’ve seen ten-year-old units ruined by bad flashing. Installation quality matters as much as the product. Call (877) 358-6557 for an assessment of what you’ve got.
