AfterWindow Company in Burbank, CA
Windows and doors in Burbank face a specific set of conditions: summer heat that regularly pushes past 95°F, winter nights that dip into the 40s, and a housing stock that spans 1930s bungalows in Magnolia Park to 1960s ranch homes in the hills above Glenoaks. Most homeowners call us when a window fails in a way that shows up on the utility bill or when a patio door stops sealing against Burbank’s dry, dusty air. We’re Meridian Windows & Doors, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we spec windows and doors from eight manufacturer lines so the product matches the house, not the other way around. Call (817) 686-2228 for a written estimate.
Why Burbank Homes Are Different
Burbank’s housing was built in distinct waves, and each wave has its own window and door problems. The prewar bungalows in the flats near Magnolia Boulevard and Chandler Boulevard often still have original wood sash windows with single-pane glass. Those frames have been repainted so many times the sashes no longer close square, and the glass does almost nothing against Burbank’s summer sun. Postwar ranch homes in the hillside streets above Glenoaks Boulevard and around Brace Canyon Park were built fast, and many still carry aluminum-frame sliders from the 1970s and 1980s. Aluminum conducts heat directly into the house, which is why those rooms overheat by mid-afternoon in August.
Terrain matters too. Homes in the Verdugo foothills get more direct afternoon sun than the flats, and they sit on lots where a patio door opens toward the same western exposure that beats on the glass from 2 p.m. until sunset. The dry heat also shrinks and splits old wood frames faster than coastal humidity would. Residents in the Rancho District and around Johnny Carson Park deal with preservation review on visible street-facing elevations, so replacement windows there sometimes need to match the original sightlines. We work through that with the homeowner before pricing goes on paper.
Scheduling also runs differently here. Burbank streets are tight, parking is limited near the Studios, and some hillside homes need a parking permit for a work truck. The crew plans for that on the first visit, so the install day does not start with a ticket on the windshield. A meridian is a fixed line you measure everything against. That is what the name means and how we run every install in Burbank.
Our Main Burbank Services
Burbank homeowners call most often about two things: replacing windows that no longer hold a seal or open properly, and installing new construction windows or patio doors during a remodel or addition. Each service has its own Burbank page with pricing and local detail.
Window Replacement in Burbank
Replacement work in Burbank usually means pulling an old aluminum or wood sash out of an existing frame and setting a new unit into the same opening. We see a lot of failed seals in homes along Victory Boulevard and Buena Vista Street, where afternoon heat bakes the glass and eventually breaks the seal. We carry double-pane units with low-E glass, which is a thin coating that reflects heat while letting light through, and we match the new window to the existing opening so the stucco or siding stays intact. See Window Replacement in Burbank for the full breakdown.
Window Installation in Burbank
New construction installation is different from replacement. The rough opening is exposed, so the window gets nailed to the framing, flashed, and sealed before trim goes on. That work happens a lot in Burbank additions, garage conversions, and accessory dwelling units off Alameda Avenue and Verdugo Avenue. Building codes here specify tempered glass close to doors and low sills, and the inspector checks. We frame, flash, and finish to pass the first time. Read the full scope on Window Installation in Burbank.
Patio Door Installation in Burbank
Burbank backyards run small and face west more often than not, so the patio door is usually the hottest opening in the house by four in the afternoon. We install sliding, French, and multi-slide patio doors with proper weatherstripping, a level threshold, and a lock that actually aligns. Homes in the hills near Stough Canyon see more wind than the flats, so the door must be sealed and squared correctly or drafts find their way in by October. Details are on Patio Door Installation in Burbank.

| Service | Typical range in Burbank |
|---|---|
| Single window replacement | $600 – $1,200 installed |
| Standard double-hung window | $450 – $900 installed |
| Casement window | $650 – $1,350 installed |

Two things push Burbank prices toward the top of those ranges: hillside access and wood-frame rot repair behind the old window. Whatever the number is, it goes on paper before any work starts, and that price does not move at the door.
