Glass & Window Services in Crescent City, CA

Crescent City is the county seat of Del Norte County, located on the Northern California coast just south of the Oregon border. The town sits in one of the wettest regions in California, with annual rainfall frequently exceeding 70 inches. Combined with salt air exposure and occasional tsunami risk in the low-lying areas near the harbor, windows and doors here face conditions that would be unusual anywhere else in our service territory.

The housing stock in Crescent City is primarily single-family homes, many built between the 1960s and 1980s. After the 1964 tsunami devastated the town's waterfront, much of the lower downtown was rebuilt with commercial and residential structures designed for that era's standards. These buildings often have original glazing that is past due for replacement. Moisture intrusion, seal failure, and frame deterioration from persistent rain and humidity are the most common issues we encounter.

Colfax Glass serves Crescent City on a scheduled rotation, similar to our Brookings coverage. We also reach Smith River to the north and Klamath to the south. For Crescent City projects, we emphasize moisture management: proper flashing, drainage-plane compatibility, and frame materials that resist rot and corrosion. Product selection here is driven by durability and weather resistance above all other factors.
