We serve six Bay Area counties — Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Mateo, and Santa Clara — covering 47 cities from Oakland to San Jose. Our crews are based in Castro Valley, putting us within 45 minutes of every city we serve. We handle permits and know the building codes for each jurisdiction, which matters because requirements and fees vary significantly between cities.

We offer $0-down financing with approved credit, 12-month same-as-cash plans, and extended terms up to 15 years for larger projects. You only pay for completed, inspected work — we never ask for full payment before the job is done. Your project manager will walk you through every option during your estimate appointment. We also accept checks, ACH, and all major credit cards.

Santa Clara has also adopted streamlined ADU permits with reduced fees. Hamilton Exteriors handles the full ADU process: design, engineering, permit applications, and construction. Most ADU permits in Santa Clara are approved within 60 days.

Yes. California's Title 24 energy standards apply to all roof and window replacements in Santa Clara and throughout Santa Clara County. For roofing, this means cool-roof-rated materials are required on low-slope roofs and recommended on steep-slope roofs to reduce heat gain. For windows, replacements must meet U-factor and SHGC ratings for Climate Zone 4 (which covers most of Santa Clara County). Hamilton Exteriors ensures every project meets or exceeds Title 24 requirements — we handle the energy calculations and compliance documentation.
