Glass & Glazing Consultation — What to Expect
Glass and glazing decisions made early in a project have a lasting impact on comfort, appearance, and cost. Choosing the wrong window line for a climate zone, specifying glass that does not meet code, or underestimating lead times on custom products can stall a build and inflate the budget. A consultation before you commit to products prevents these problems.
Colfax Glass provides project planning support for homeowners, contractors, and architects working on new construction, major remodels, and additions. We review plans, recommend specific products from Milgard, JELD-WEN, VELUX, HMI, and Cardinal, and help size glass and frame systems to the project's structural and aesthetic requirements. This service is especially valuable for custom homes in Grass Valley, Nevada City, and Foresthill where elevations vary and building department requirements can differ by parcel.
For foothill projects, we focus on solar heat gain, thermal performance, and wildfire-zone compliance where applicable. For coastal projects in Brookings and Crescent City, we advise on wind load ratings, salt air durability, and moisture management at the glazing line. These are not details you want to figure out during installation.
Consultation is available at no cost for projects where Colfax Glass will handle the installation. For advisory-only engagements, where another contractor will install, we offer consultation on a fee basis. Either way, you get specific, written recommendations you can use to plan and budget your glass scope with confidence.
Glass & Glazing Consultation for Loomis, CA Homes
Loomis is a small town along the I-80 corridor between Rocklin and Auburn, known for its rural character, horse properties, and fruit-growing heritage. Most homes are single-family residences on lots ranging from a quarter acre to several acres. Building styles lean toward ranch-style homes from the 1970s through 1990s, with newer custom homes on the larger parcels. The town's low density and open landscapes mean many homes get full sun exposure with little shade, making solar heat gain a primary concern for window selection.
Summer temperatures in Loomis routinely hit the upper 90s and occasionally top 105 degrees. South- and west-facing windows in particular take a beating from direct sun. We recommend spectrally selective Low-E glass for Loomis homes to block infrared heat while maintaining visible light transmission. For horse property owners with barns and outbuildings, we also handle utilitarian glass work like barn window replacements and tempered glass panels for covered arenas.
Colfax Glass reaches Loomis in about 30 minutes via I-80. We serve the entire Loomis area including properties along Horseshoe Bar Road, King Road, and Brace Road. The town's proximity to both Auburn and Rocklin means we often schedule Loomis projects alongside nearby jobs for efficient routing.

Top Brands We Install
“Our ranch house in Loomis was an oven in summer. They replaced all the west-facing windows with Low-E glass and the temperature difference is dramatic. Should have done it years ago.”
