That’s the opposite of U-Value. If U-Value determines how much heat is going through your house, the R-Value determines how much heat is being absorbed in your window. The better glass you have, the more R-Value you have. In other words, if your window glass is hot, that’s not a good R-Value, which means that the window has no Low-E or Argon Gas. You want your window glass to stay cool even when it’s hot.

We worked with David on our patio as well as several smaller projects. We appreciated David's patience and willingness to make sure we were satisfied with the final project, even through a few issues. We would work with them again on future projects.

We just finished a garage conversion to a studio apartment David and his team did a phenomenal job we were so pleased by the end product. David and his team were on top of every problem that arose and if we needed anything or had any questions he responded promptly. This was our first time working with a general contractor and couldn’t have asked for a better one especially hearing horror stories about other contractors to us David is the golden standard and we would 10/10 love to work with David again with our other future projects and recommend him to anyone.

David and his team are phenomenal. We completed a garage conversion to studio apartment and throughout the entire project the communication was great, concerns were always addressed immediately, scheduling with him was easy, and the quality of the work done was outstanding. We had a payment plan drafted at the start of the project and knew what to expect at every stage. His team liaised with the city and utility companies and anything that wasn’t included in our contract he connected us with subcontractors who were also great. Although being under construction is always stressful David made the experience so much better, I would recommend him to everyone I know and I would not hesitate to hire him again!

Approximately 3 years ago I had Family Home Improvements paint my house. Recently some blemishes appeared and I contacted Family Home Improvements. They honored their warranty and came out and took care of the issues. I appreciate them and the fine work they've done. I am once again a happy camper.

Called the company for general full interior home renovation and as I was explaining about kitchen remodel and so forth the guy was sarcastic. Glad I didn't proceed.

I hired Family Home Improvements to restore and paint this exterior of my craftsman home in Chino. which needed some serious work on the windows, wood siding, and shingles and siding, i I was very impressed by their finished worked, professionalism, quality, and attention to detail. They reglazed all my windows, making them look new. They also fixed all the damaged wood siding and shingles and siding, preserving the original charm and character of my home. They did a beautiful job in matching the colors and textures of the materials, and they cleaned up everything after they were done.The workers Mario and Gonzalo are professional everyday I am very happy with the results and I would highly recommend Family Home Improvements to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled home improvement company. They truly transformed my home and made it look amazing! The best thing was my wife was happy. My house still.looks incredible and no damage after 8years

Stay away! Stay away! Stay away!Contractor quoted me $20,000 for the project without even taking measurements.He called their main office and they came up with that amount. But how ?There was not break down on labor, parts or other fees.Very disappointed with representative and with company’s estimate without even getting a picture or drawing of the project.He was rushed and gave me an estimate without even measuring the space where windows would be installed.I had to finde a measurement tape because he had none!Not sure how they even have a contractor’s license.He told me that this company uses them as the window builders and that they do not give written estimates because “most people don’t call back any way.”It is a bait and hook business, they attract you with a 2 window free offer and when they show up they don’t even mention it.He literally did not say how the offer would be applied to final total.Look somewhere else to spend your hard earned money.They don’t deserve your money or time.Run and don’t look back.Very shady 👀👀👀👀

I highly recommend Family Home Improvements to anyone in need of painting, siding, roofing, or window replacement services. I worked with them to have my entire house painted, and they did an excellent job - very professional, courteous, and punctual. They were also willing to work with me on price and were very competitive. The finished product was excellent, and I am very pleased.

I cannot begin to explain how great my experience with Family Home Improvement. My property has in excess of 100 windows so the process for selecting the design was daunting to say the least because a mistake would be an expensive oops. They was exceptionally patient and extremely helpful to me in coming up with the final design, counseling me on color options and window styles. We have gone through various seasons and on top of the windows looking FABULOUS (people stop and stare all the time), they have done wonders to reduce my utilities bills by helping to control the temperature. I definitely recommend This company because I got more than a bang for my buck!!!
