OUR STORY
A Local Company Built on Quality and Trust
My name is Michael Rockafellor, and we have been in the window and door installation business for over 26 years. We started my career working for some of the largest window companies in Southern California, learning every aspect of the trade from the ground up.
After years of working for others, we founded Rockafellor Windows, Inc. to provide the exceptional quality and personal service we always believed customers deserved. We handle everything from sales to measuring, and we often join my team in the field to ensure every installation exceeds expectations.
We take immense pride in every installation. Whether full window installations or a full home retrofit, we treat every project as if it were our own home. That commitment to craftsmanship and customer care is what has built our reputation through word of mouth over two decades.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions About Our Company & Installation
Find answers to the most common questions about our windows, doors, and installation process.
What is Title 24?
Title 24 Window Requirements for San Diego (Climate Zone 7) San Diego is located in California Climate Zone 7 for Title 24 energy compliance. Under the California Title 24, Part 6 Energy Code (Prescriptive Method), residential windows and glazed doors installed in new construction must meet the following maximum performance values: Maximum U-Factor: 0.30 Maximum Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC): 0.23 These are maximum allowable values, meaning the NFRC-rated performance of the window must be equal to or less than each value. Lower numbers indicate better energy performance. All windows and glazed doors used to demonstrate compliance must be NFRC certified and labeled so their U-Factor and SHGC can be verified during permitting and inspection. Selecting products that meet or exceed these requirements helps improve energy efficiency, reduce heating and cooling costs, and satisfy California's Title 24 Energy Code for Climate Zone 7.
What's the difference between energy-efficient and high-performance windows?
Homes with high-performance window systems are more comfortable and consume less energy than homes with standard energy efficiency windows. High-performance (Title 24) windows perform better than a standard energy efficient window and has superior insulation.
What brand/manufacturer should I use?
Being in the field of installation for over 26 years I have first hand experience working with all of them. I can explain the pros and cons of each manufacturer and help you make the best decision. I have access to just about any brand available on the west coast. My personal favorites included company's who have excellent service behind their product, are punctual with deliveries and fulfilling orders complete and on time. Many companies will tell you their window is the best and sell you on the product because they only possess that product, whereas we can offer any of the brands so that you are not limited to only what they have to offer.
How long does a typical installation take?
Most residential window replacements can be completed in a single day. Larger projects or full home retrofits may take two to three days. I will give you a clear timeline before any work begins so you can plan accordingly.
What warranty comes with Anlin windows?
Anlin offers an industry-leading lifetime warranty on their windows and doors, covering glass breakage, hardware, and the frame. This warranty is transferable to new homeowners, which adds value to your property.
Can I see your contractor license?
Yes. Rockafellor Windows, Inc. lists California Contractor License #1102728. We encourage homeowners to verify contractor licensing and review the available license information before hiring.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We offer free in-home estimates for residential window and door installation projects. During your consultation, we can discuss your goals, review your existing openings, and help you explore suitable product and installation options.

What flashing methods do you use for new construction installations?
Proper flashing is critical to preventing water intrusion around windows and doors. I use industry-best flashing techniques tailored to each installation type. See our Flashing Methods Comparison document in the Technical Resources section for a detailed breakdown.
