I was needing an experienced window installer and I was fortunate to find Bj of Golden Valley Windows and Doors. He installed a new Large window, as my 16 yr old replacement window was leaking water into interior wall as it had not been installed properly. Bj did fantastic work and Im confident this window will last. Bj took the time to protect my property while making sure to clean up debris when done. I now have a Beautiful functional window!
I highly recommend Bj (Owner) of Golden Valley Windows + Doors.
30 years experience!

We had several double paned windows that had fogged and needed to be replaced. BJ was extremely quick and professional in all our interactions. Our new windows look amazing. Would highly recommend.

Great communication, punctual, finished earlier than I expected, cleaned everything, and left clear directions after they finished. I had my doors done with another business and now I wish I went with Golden Valley for doors and not just windows. I would use them again and highly recommend them.

Golden Valley Windows & Doors gave us a window replacement and a sliding door at our ADU Cottage in Oakland, CA. Bj came out, took measurements, and had a quote emailed before the day was over. It took 4-5 weeks to install the Beautiful windows and door. The service was great, totally professional, with quality windows. The installation was perfect, leaving the cottage sweep clean. I highly recommend Bj (Owner) of Golden Valley Windows + Door
My son and I are thrilled!

This review is long overdue. Bj and his team helped us open up a wall and install a window in our home office. I actually reached out to multiple vendors and because the work requires opening up a wall, many window vendors told me they dont do the work and I would need to find a general contractor. Bj responded promptly to my requests, came out the same week and provided a reasonable quote. The custom ordered window took 3 weeks to arrive, and his team installed it in less than a day. They were courteous and clean they covered up the surrounding areas beforehand and cleaned up after. The window looks great and now we can finally work in the office without getting headaches thanks to the newly added airflow. I would hire this team for all my future window work!
